lights just turned off again, bear, i need to know about the long dark period, is it too late? if so, oh well. they'll still do their thing at 12-12. hope to get the full setup to day. if so i'll let you know, and might even can borrow a cam today.

talk to you guys later!

love, brooke

I would just do the darkness next time around, because I am not sure if it will stress your plants. Better to be safe than sorry.
You have put in so much effort around hear , we need to scrape up some money and get you a 400w HPS, LOL.

I wouldn't worry about the 24 hours of darkness, it may be just a hippy tail. I know many folks who do it, but it is not a big thing, some go right to 12-12 and say that it makes no difference.
Good growing.
Adieu

Hi dear,

The lights you have will work fine.. JUST keep them as close as you can.. this is KEY!! You should be able to keep them less than 1 inch from your foliage without any burning.. and you should surround your plants with the lights.. not just on top but along the sides..

picture me..

iloveyou : )

Is that you in the AV?

[brookerosebud]

ok, went to lowes today, spent 110$ (ouch)

i now have sixteen 23w cfl's and 4 40w flo' tubes. tube lights are canopy cover, 8 cfls are canopy cover, 8 cfls on the sides. i think this should be enough light. however i've had to move the lights farther away from the plants bc of burns (fan and growth) only a few leaves though, no biggie.

tomorrow evening i will clone the other four for future porjects and throw the rest into flower. i'll kill off all but one male clone and use it for seed production. from each plant, i've taken 2 clones, one for flower, and one for a mom. i hope every thing goes alright.

how soon do you think i'll see flowers?

outside plant is booming blooming. i swear the buds get bigger at night than they do during the day.

ne way, this is where i am now, maybe by the time i've harvested and smoked it all i'll be able to get a camera. lol. i wish you guys could see these things. i'm so proud of the little tikes!

talk to ya later!

love, brooke
