McToker's 1st Grow with CFL

[McToker]

daihashi ~ Humidity hasn't been a problem for us. It pretty much stays at 42% inside the homebox even with the house A/C running. When it dips below 40 we just turn on the cold humidifier for a few hours (outside the tent but aimed at one of the intakes). We haven't had to use it all that much during flower.

We kept the humidty at about 50% for vegging and just refilled the humidifier once a day. Our antique furniture pieces loved the extra moisture, too.

Hey McToker :jointsmile:

Quick question:
I read somewhere (maybe this thread actually) that the Homebox comes in a box labeled "Homebox: Indoor grow room" (in green writing of course :wtf Is this true? I just want to know what the box will say. I'm fine with it saying Homebox, but I hate when companies put something about indoor growing on the delivery box. I have to have it delivered to a work place.

Thanks

smoothsmoke ~ Good Luck!

TM1 ~ I remember it did say "Homebox" but I don't recall the other. The box is long gone or I'd check for you.

That's alright. It may be a good thing that you don't recall. If I had received it labeled "Homebox: Indoor Grow Room"... I would have remembered :stoned:

There are thousands of things that could be referred to as a Homebox... so that's not so bad.

Keep us posted on those flowers :hippy:

Today's photos. This is feeding day so the girls look a bit wilted.

The 4th pic is one of the smaller buds on the larger of the two plants.

The 5th pic is a bud on the smaller plant. I tried different flash settings hoping to catch the pinkish hue of the flowers on this plant. Both plants are from the same source but different times. #4 is from Xmas '07 and #5 (the pink one) is from Summer '08. Both are bagseed so, who knows what variety they are.

We keep telling ourselves, it won't be long now.

Rock on CFLs... Rock on

[McToker]

Thanks folks.

In the pics the lights were raised out of the way for feeding day. We try to arrange it where that tall cola actually comes up between several light bulbs and that puts the remaining bulbs closer to the other buds.
