Now that the previous harvest has been cured for more than a month, i can say it's not the best smoke of my life, but i am happy whit it....this last grow was more like a test run, I figured this box is too small for 2 plants, they where terribly rootbound, and it caused many problems....this current plant, Marla, looks much better than the others did this time around....
So here are a few pix of her@day 20 of the flowering.....:jointsmile:
smoke report...bio-assay= just give beginning, middle and end of high..taste...smell....transitions...thats how i usually give mine....
WT
and again....well played with the LST...you should get a good chunk off that!!
WT
Hey, thanks WhiskyTango.....:thumbsup: yes the LST is a really gr8 way to keep the plants at bay...i love it...you can bend the plant anyway you like...Marla was never pruned or topped, only lstd and looks so nice compact...
Well i gonna try to give a short report of the afghan...
First of all it has a nice fruity,a bit hash like smell....the fruityness is stronger than the common dank ganja smell, almost a little bit obtrusive....not very sticky but resinous buds....
The smoke is surprisingly mild at the beginning, later it gets harsher at the exhale...it has a taste like biscuits whit raspberry jam but also hempy...
The high is more heady at the beginning later it goes over into a nice relaxing feeling, i get a bit sleepy from it....I'm more like a sativa lover...
There is no sign of anxiety....It's relaxing....not very long lasting, but it's ok...
Altogether on a scale of 5 i would give it a 3 or maybe 3.5...
zebulon, you are an inspiration to both my first two grows this year. one outside with plants already being lst'd like that. They are completely horizontal being tied down with stakes and so far the results are amazing. Now with my small indoor grow under fluoros i think i can get a good yeild, i have 26,000 lumens inside a rubbermaid and ventilated very nicely.
your plants are amazing, great training
:rastasmoke:
Thanks Greenatik.....:thumbsup:
So, Marla is at day 24 of flowering and.....holly cow, she's looking sexy....:stoned:
I'm missing the sexy part.....but the plant looks NIIIIICE!! :thumbsup:
Thanks WH....:thumbsup:
It's day 30 of flowering, so here are a few pix....
She has a very strong smell, stinks up the whole room....but it's good, i like it - makes me kind of hungry....:stoned:
Great log....i started a cardboard box a week ago and now im completely conviced the idea works....keep up the good work....cant wait to see the outdoor grow log:thumbsup:
Day 30?! Pretty darn good looking buds for so early on.....can't wait until they hit day 50!
Thanks Weedhound and Killa12345.....:thumbsup:
It looks like this is some fast flowering strain...i'm a bit surprised too, that the hairs are already going brown...
Beautiful plant! My bblgum is 21 days flower today. I'll get photos up on Friday. So, I hope I'm on track with your buds, man.
Sho
Nice to see ya Shov...i gonna check out your log for sure when you update it, can't wait to see them in bloom...
You are a lucky man, BG is a real great strain, i love it....i would really love to grow it too....maybe next year...:jointsmile:
Dank...?!? :stoned:
lookin damn good zeb....where did the crank pic go?..
whiskeytango
Hey, thanks WT for the kind words....:thumbsup:
The crank pic?? I made another one....i love that movie....:D
It's day 37 of the flowering....
The buds are bulking up nicely, white hairs are still coming...first cloudy trics are starting to appear....the plant has a strong smell, it's resinous & frosty.....:jointsmile:
The BioCanna products and the Potassium Humic are doing their job nicely....
Zeb.....that looks really lovely! Growing great there. Can't remember what type you said? (Stoners forget by the time they get to the bottom of the page........) :stoned:
Thanks WH for the kind words....:thumbsup:
The strain is Mazar...if the high will be as nice as it looks and smells, i gonna grow the real thing next year for sure...5 non femmed seeds cost 40$...Afghan X Skunk#1 cross....
your thread has been very encouraging for a newbie grower like me and a fellow CFL'er too. i know that you usually grow outdoors and that this was more an experiment for you than an attempt to grow but i was very happy to see your results with the cfl's.
anyway, thanks for posting your efforts online and sharing with us newbies.
btw, i never realized Hungary was such a beautiful place!
and good luck with your upcoming outdoor crop!
bozo,
peace, love, dope
Thanks Bozo, i'm happy that you and my fellow cfl growers find some inspiration in this log...
Originally, the whole propose of this log was to show smokers, who have only a small space and/or don't have much money, that it's enough to have a small box and a few cheap cfl's, to grow some nice buds...
Here are some more, encouraging pix for ya all....:stoned:
LOL, i'm touched (some would say 'tetched, in the head). really though, that describes me to a tee. i'm a disabled vet living on a budget so tight that i ALWAYS have too much month at the end of the money! LOL
all kidding aside, i truely love the creative power of the dedicated weed-head! thanks again for all your posts.
bozo,
peace, love, dope
after reading and seeing all this, im thinking of getting a nice size box and scrapping my closet idea, it seems to big for the one plant i have left. very nice plants and buds you came up with zeb. let us know how the outdoor project turns out!

Killa12345
PS..Thanks for the vote of confidence.....after seeing the comment...i though........"Sh*t maybe i wont kill them this time"
damn zeb, looking great again! is that a sativa / indica mix?
those hairs are beautiful, keep up the good work :thumbsup:
Thanks All...:thumbsup:
So, Marla has been chopped up at day 51...
I could have left her a bit longer, but she looked already ripe...brown hairs...amber & cloudy trics....
Gonna upload pix when i get the cam back form my buddy...
Another great news is, i got 3 trainwreck seeds, 2 have already sprouted and i gonna plant them out soon....
This log will go on a summer pause, because it's too warm, and the nights are too short, but in September i gonna continue whit that last TW seed....
Maybe i gonna make a bigger grow box for the next season....

Hey mate just found your grow great stuff
Your an inspiration to me as im doing a CFL only grow as well
I can only hope that my grow goes as well as urs
Keep up the great work :D
Smoke report?
Some pix...
Well the weed is not dry yet, total yield maybe 1 oz, but i think less...
But it's def. some premium quality stuff, i'm pretty baked right now...
Smoke report a bit later...:jointsmile:
awesome buds as usual zeb, the middle picture is delectable :food10:
edit: all the pics look delicious :D
What are the dimensions of the boxes you're growing in? Also, how many CFMs is your exhaust? Awesome job Zeb, very inspiring ;)
Thanks dude, sorry for the late response....Quote:

I don't know if i should continue this log, i still have that one last GHS trainwreck seed, but if things go well outside i gonna have enough bud for some time...it's such a great thing to have a small plant indoors, i can check it everyday, drool, etc...
But it's also dangerous...i'm kind of afraid around this time of year, so i think i will wait a bit whit the next indoor grow....
nice work zeb! i appreciate the thoroughness of your log. i have a cardboard box that i converted and was told what a fire hazard it was. so you use cardboard boxes yourself? no problems? no heat issues or anything. mine doesn't get hot at all. i am always home so i check it regularly. it was just something i threw together for fun but i think i might keep it after seeing your results. you just used 6 lights? and you had the passive intakes at the bottom and a blow-hole exhaust fan?
nice ingenuity. very nice work. i like the self-made approach. what's the fun if you buy everything yourself. enjoy the journey right?

Hey, thanks Shake...:thumbsup:Quote:

Yeah, i used 6 cfl's, passive intake on the side, fan on top of the box...
You can use a cardboard box for growing imo, just check it often if the fan is running nicely, and make sure it's not overheating....
Nice work... Great bud from CFL's ... Skillzzz. d:rastasmoke:
