Flowering from seed?

[OrangeWidow]

Ok so my main question is how long do I have to veg be for I can flower.... I'm not looking for maximum yeild but for a little personal.

My grow space is:
1.9ft x 1.4ft x 1.6
I'm using 1-20w cfl for now... and yes its the correct color.

I'm using some soil I found in an outdoor pot

Can I veg for a week or two and do lst avout 6-10 days b4 I flower and continue as ir flowers?

The lid of the box doesn't close all the way so it is allowing pleanty of hot air to vent from the top.

Has been germinating for the past 2-3 days and was just planted about 20 min ago
I just planted it about 15 min ago....

Its more than seed + dirt + light + water = bud. In order to get anything worthwhile, you have to put in some effort.

It will take a bit longer that 1-2 weeks veg from seed, assuming you count from the first sign of life. I would say give it at least a month to mature from the first break in the soil.

After that you will probably want to take clones of your healthy ones, sex them or just flower the originals and hang on to the clones (label them well!)

Estimate on 2-3 months from seed to harvest.

i agree, and also i dont think u will get fuck all from 1 20w cfl

You have a space of 1.9x1.4x1.6 ft which is length, width, hight. If you only have around 1.5' of hight, you will need to induce flowering, I would say when plants are around 4'' high. You can get a longer veg period doing LST. I would reccomend doing this and veg as long as you can, so to let the plant mature as much as your space will allow. Start flowering cycle when your space is 33% full. Hard to tell with out pics of your cabinet.

Ok I posted about an hour ago and for some reason it didn't work....

I plan on adding more lights.... and please don't talk to me like I don't know what I'm talking about. I have been on this site for some time now but don't really talk that much. I also invested in the book, Grow Great Marijuana by logan edwards.... it is a lot of help but is mostly stuff I already know.

I am going to veg for about 2weeks b4 I flower and start the lst as soon as its tall enough at about 3-4" and add one more cfl and replace the one its veging under to a 2700k and add my 75w for only 20w replacement Energy choice Biax electronic floresent bulb for flowering. I'm sure I could get a little bit of personal out of it and I'm also sure I could get rid of the leaves and shake for like 20 or 40 bucks lol.

I'm just testing out what I could do for future grows. I want to end up have 1 full CFL grow and hopefully doing an Led project as well just to test it out.... it seems very interesting. I should have 3-4000lummens on this plant b4 I'm done.

Thanks very much jerry! Your the only smart one that has replied with useful and kind information unlike all the assholes that woke up on the wrongside of the bed.

The post that "didn't work" was removed by a mod. Your response tword dejayou30 was not well recieved, was not appropriate, and definatelly not deserving of any assistance from that point on.

Looking at the tone and content of your last post, you know damn well where your post (and my response to your post) went. It was there for quite a while.

If you feel it's ok to bust our door down, asking for advice, screaming obscenities at other members that are here to help (if you don't act like a moron) then you can expect the same in return. Am still wondering where your appology to dejayou3 is.

preach it......its good to see a respectful member sticking up for the other respectful members

I don't expect an apology. When I started, I got a little rude with some of the people in here because I thought I knew more than I did, so I assume this is the same deal. The fact is that no matter how much you read and think you know before hand, there's so much more that you will learn when you are actually growing. Its never as easy as it seems at first.

However, by your initial post, it seemed like you didn't really have things thought out very well. For example, you just mention soil from an outdoor pot? Do you know what kind of soil? You also made no mention of the pH or anything like that. It just didn't seem like you knew what you were doing, so I just wanted to throw out there that its harder than it seems. I really didn't mean to offend you. :jointsmile:

Ok I will appologise for being rude.

I can't post pics cause my pc won't let me.. I made a hood for the light that directs all the light downward out of a 4x4x6 box that I lined with mylar. I am going to add oone more cfl when I go out later.

The soil looks good but idk what the ph is. I really can't afford anything right now it sucks.
