I initially started out with the idea of using a CFL or 2, wanting to avoid hydro shops and HID lighting. After researching it a little I found one of BobBongs threads and was stunned to see his amazing results.
Although money isn't a factor, my goal was to spend what it costs to buy an ounce, on equipment. Also trying to keep everything really simple.
Lighting I purchased was :-
3 x Natural CFLs (48watt/240watt equiv. 5000k) Energy Saving
3 x Warm White CFLs (48watt/240watt equiv. 3000k) Energy Saving
They are about $18 US each.
I whipped up a grow box that is approx. 3ft x 2ft x 3ft. (l, w, h)
Although the seeds are bagseed, they are from killer bags where I'd only find a few in an ounce. I've kept buds from these so I know what I'm growing. Really hoping that they produce a few male pods cause my seed stocks are many years old and I was lucky that anything germinated. Due to these germination issues plant maturity is staggered.
They don't have names at the moment but #3 is nicknamed 'Bitch on Roids'.
This pic of her is at about 20 days from germination.
