CFL Cab Grow Log...

[Pasofol]

Things seem to be growing nicely for you. Just wondering where you got your ho 5t lights. Found http://www.plantlightinghydroponics....ht-p-1934.html to be cheap in the US but the UPS brokerage fees seem to kill the price difference. Bustan has them for like 240 for the 4 times 2 feet. Might be picking up the 8 times 2 feet. Have you noticed a difference from cfl?

Hey Pasfol... I paid top dollar for the T5 at bustan. I believe it was $245 + Tax ------ $285 Tax In.

I looked at it like. They warrenty it, If it doesn't work you just go in and they'll give you another one bulbs and all etc.. If the lights go out plants stop growing. Thats nothing I would want to happen then have to chase somone on ebay or online. If somthing happens I go back to the store and come home with replacement.

Anything happening with your cab?

Its worth the extra cash for piece of mind.

Well I wish you replied sooner, didn't think of that before I caved in and ordered. I got the same t5 setup for 125 US with the 6500, also a switchable ballast 400w, and a bulb for each mh/hps. The mh was a specific one that outputs at 6500k which cost 65 usd.

The ups should be an extra 100 though. I basically saved myself from buying a second ballast this way. The t5 will be for new clones, mh/hps for growth/flowering. Still going over timing in my head and when clones will be taken so on. First grow if male/female will just make seeds for backup dont want to spend the money for them again for the same strain at least.

Left them at 29.2 c when I left for a party which I'm not back from yet, I hope the temp didn't rise. Was playing with new lights and exhaust.

So here they are at 3 weeks, A full 3 weeks and one day...

SO new year here with good stuff. One I decided to stop smokin'. Mary J that is Cigerettes are for Fags. I will never puff one of those bastards again.

Somtimes you hit a block and all your doing is getting HIgh and ignoring all the things that are around you. Trust me I am a firm believer of smoking and doing stuff. But lately the weed that I have been getting does nothing but put me to sleep or make me somwhat angry. And If I want really good weed I have to pay out the ass for it. I honestly feel that I have been smoking the same bud for 5 years now. Cuz I really don't get Laughing High, Like I rembered when I first started smoking the Cron, 10 years ago. I have been high like everyday since I was about 17 and im 27 now. 10 years, Its almost boring to me now.

plus my gf and I smoke too much collectivily, lets face it its not cheep. I don't even want to try and count the numbers of how much money I have spent on Pot i would start to cry. Heres one thought that always gets me. I see a nice sweater Or CDs or DVD anything really in a store i think its awsome. I look at the price tag it says 60 bucks. im like wohhh wait thats a rip off I wont buy that nice sweater for myself I can find a less hip sweater for 20 bucks at Bargan Harolds and not look so cool. But jo blow dealer will offer me a 1/4 for 60 bucks and im like thats a good deal. without even thinking. Thats my little rant.

Basically no dope untill this crop come through and then hopfully I can make the transition back to a recational smoker. not that I really ever rember being one. but I think some time I was. So its been 2 days with no Chizzle. So far sleeping isn't happening too well. im reading a hell of a lot though. just its not making me sleepy. But you know honestly I'm looking foward to not smoking for a bit and then enjoying the fruits of my labour. I garuntee this weed will be far better quality than the Canadain bullshit we find on the streets in TO. they use chemicals man Probs MG and grow far to much Indica. Its cheep and yes little kids love to buy it, but it tastes like garbage and stinks like ass.

Well with that said. good night all.. OR good morrning for some.

Enjoy the pictures. They seem happy but my runoff is still sitting low at a 6.0 steady. I want to get it up so I can not lockout P... I bet that would help the purpal stems.... I forgot to mention these plants are only in One gallon containers due to space restrictions. I could do bigger but I wanted to see the difference between the two pots sizes. So far pretty decent results I think.

And some pictures of the Re Veged Seeding PLant Its time to start tieing it down soon and preparing to sleect a clone or two. Or I could just flower it all cuz I don't really care about this strain. Its mainly indica and Its the plant I sexed so I am more interested in what Mix I created than the original. Notice the little seedlings in there they are holding up well with little to no Attention. They are the cross I made.

Why wont my Mind get tired... Its wide awake,,, but my body is aching and screaming for sleep. Its gonna be a long ruff week...

Hey this is looking great KD.
I wanted to drop you a line and let you know, that the sleep gets better. I've been a smoker for 14 years. I've had many times I've had to quit due to health issues or it being dry in my area and it usually takes me three to four days to get my sleep patterns back in order. After a week, you're gold (i've noticed this is when the giggles come back after smoking too). When I am smoking, it definitley isn't 'casual', more like all day everyday, so I'd imagine your recovery time should be similar to mine. Another tip, don't let the reading keep you up at night...sometimes the time gets away from you and makes it harder to sleep once you realize how late it is and for 'crying out loud' you're still awake. LOL....I totally agree with you about the sweater analogy...Happy NOT tokin until harvest, just wait, if you haven't had a dry out in ten years it will be THE BOMB! And congrats on quitting cigarettes, let us know how it goes. B

[kdspecial]

thanks for the positive comments Duder.....

yeah sleep has come easier now than before my GF is going nuts though,,, I keep telling her shes gotta stick with it but shes quitting smoking too. thats a hard one, Everytime she trys to quit its like im quitting all over again. The moods that tobbaco can put you in when you don't have any... its a crime to sell that stuff...

Yes Stinky they are from seeds that fell off into the soil. I wasn't too sure what to do with them cuz I really just neglect them. Thats good to know that they are growing well. with little care.

My original intention was to get a clone of this re vegged plant. I think it might be fun just to flower it and watch a retarted looking bush grow ,, I guess I should take those little guys out of there, Naaaa im just gonna let them be.. and they will grow with my revegeed plant, as I tie it down. once it gets out of control I will take a few clones and keep one as a mother probs and flower the rest of it. if I don't have any other plants to go into the top of the box..

I took some clones from the current plants I hope they root soon these will be my main concern as they are a sativa strain..

Ohh as well I think I may have promissed my GF that I would leave those little ones in the pot as is. She thought it was cute too......

guys think its cool... Gurls they think its cute!!!!
