So i was wondering, those of you who have grown with fluoro's before... about how long did the whole grow take and how long for veg/flower? I'm only goin to be using fluoro's on my next grow to keep energy costs/heat to a minimum.

Yea i kinda figured that, i should have waited to switch the lights. I was using 11 on 13 off trying to get them to show sex a lil faster. I guess this is how the saying live and learn came about. Well i will germ some more beans and see how it goes next time around. Thanks to everyone for...

Well as of today i have all males. >=-( So they're all dead and gone now and i'm closing up shop. Was fun while it lasted.

Ok, yesterday I switched the nutes since i've flipped the lights. I'm now using Miracle Grow All Purpose Water Soluble Plant Food 15-30-15 @ 1/2 Label dose, SuperThrive at label directions mixed with 1 gallon of tap water left sitting uncovered for 24 hrs. Once the lights turn back on today at...

Ok well as of today i noticed new little leafs growing from where every branch meets the main stalk. I guess these are the second leaves for each branch? Am i correct in assuming that my plants won't actually start flowering until they are mature enough-instead growing faster to maturity, or...

So i was just thinking, if these plants do get alot bigger, i might just clip the buds off and top the plants if i don't end up with that many females. This way i can try to re-enter them in to the veg cycle and maybe take some clones? I haven't read much on cloning but i think i should be...

Ok so my tallest plants are only about 4-5" tall but they have about 5-7 nodes already so i went ahead and started them on 11 on/13 off last night at midnight and i've got the lights coming back on at 1pm. I know they wont get very big but for me that's ok. I want to see how tall plants will...

Some new pics from today

Ok now that i've done a little reading up on fluorescent lights i know the wattage of my bulbs. They are 20w each... not very much i know. Well last night i went out and bought another two bulb 2' fixture. So now i have 4 2' 20w Plant Lights on my babies, 20w per sq. ft. They seem to be...

Well if they start getting too tall for the cabinet then i planned on trying some low-stress training, but with the cab. only being 2' wide and deep i might not be able to do anything but top them. I don't know but i will cross that bridge when i get there. But anyways, yea i have alot of...

I haven't updated in awhile mainly because i only got one reply like two weeks ago. Well since my last update i built a grow box to keep them in, they we're behind a speaker box covered by cardboard boxes so they aren't discovered. My box is 2'w x 2'd x 4'h. I have a latch on the door so i...

Sometimes people mix different kinds together just to make up a quick bag, it's kind of nice if you like a random sort of variety. Usually no way of knowing what you have tho. Those are some beautiful ladies... we hope. Nice lookin'

So i went out and decided to buy a 150w HPS bulb tonite but when i saw all the different kinds of HPS Lamps and all the different prices (went to Home Depot) i wasn't sure which one to get to make a suitable grow light set-up, plus i can't afford the expensive fixture. I was wondering if anyone...

Yea i only put about a half cap full of ST per one gallon of tap water left sitting out overnite. I attached some photos i just took with a $20 digi. I know they're not the best quality but hopefully they will do for now. Thanks for making me feel welcome here!!! :holysheep:

This is actually my second attempt at growing. The first only lasted like a week and a half and i only had one plant under a blacklight, lol. Well this time i have about ten plants all from seeds i got from recent bags i had. I have them all in a 2' x 3' space in my closet under two 2'...
