Heh, you've seen my flowering cabinet. But these bulbs weren't for that; I had too many females, and couldn't bear to kill them off, so I started eyeing a tiny closet, and that's where I threw the CFLs.

It's pretty shitty-looking, and I'm kinda embarrassed to show the closet, as you might laugh at the resorts I am going to in order not to kill off these overflow females! No ventilation except for leaving the door ajar, not painted, not much mylar, just a cubbyhole with a buncha CFLs.

One of the overflow females is a Sativa-dominant Durban Poison x Skunk #1, that came from the only seed I could get to germinate out of a pack of Nirvana freebie seeds from another order. I have had this plant since April or May. I kept it in a 1/2 gallon pot most of that time, and it became totally rootbound and droopy...but that did keep it from getting TOO gigantic. It's in a 5-gallon pot now and recovering from the transplant. It's been heavily LST'd, but if it hadn't been, I'd guess it'd be at least three feet tall now. It was FIM'd with three main branches which are quite thick now, so I'm scared of what it's going to turn into when I go to 12/12 (which I plan to begin this weekend). The other overflow plant in the closet is about 10 inches tall, Nirvana Blue Mystic, Indica-dominant. My plan is to rotate those two plants in and out of this closet every 12 hours, with one plant always in there, and one always in darkness in a different closet. A poor man's light mover, sort of...me! But I'll be moving the plants, not the lights.

Once I start my normal flowering cabinet flowering, I'll have another eight 23-26w cool CFLs I could throw in the closet too, which I might. Wrong spectrum, but I'm sure it would help. That'll be a ridiculous 600+ watts of CFLs in there if I do that. Might not be able to use those, might trip a breaker, but I'll see soon.

Okay, here's a couple of pics. I put a ruler in there with the inches side showing, for scale. Don't laugh too much - desperate times call for desperate measures!
