Great! I am going to order 2 x 125W bulbs, to hang from the top of my growbox. I'll put the other CFL's down the sides, just for the extra umf. Will Update with pics as soon as I'm done with the modifications.

Thanks HL Quick on the draw as always... :D So the 2700k's should be good for doing the whole cycle, like when I replant after harvesting?

Pulling up a seat and a fat one on this one. :watchplant:

Hi Guys, They jumped up 3 inches over the last couple of days, and currently are less than 2 inches from the lamps. I have to transfer them out to a bigger grow cabinet. (like tomorrow...) The new cabinet has about 4 times the floor area, twice the height and width, so I should be able to put...

Erk... Kamuzu jumped up about 3 inches... and his top was crunched against the CFL. :( Although it doesn't look burnt, it definately doesnt look very pretty. Jeez... really gotta watch out for these growth spurts. Would have been a disaster if i had been using any of the higher...

Hi Guys. Heres another update. We're now on day 32. Over the last week, Kamuzu's really stretched himself, although I've been trying to keep him as close to the lights as possible. Still only watering with water from my bio aquarium, and keeping them on a 20/4 schedule Well, here go the...

Gonna sling up my hammock and watch this grow. I'm doing 2 Lowryders, and theyre on a 20/4 schedule. They just started smelling now, but my filter seems to be taking care of the smell nicely. A couple of pics of your grow space would be awesome! Also about the HM, I dont have direct...

Hi guys. it's now been 25 days since germination, and here are a couple of pics. The pics proving "femaleness" didnt come out too well, because of insuficient lighting, and the camera defaults to auto flash. Included a close up of Kamuzu's head, and of the sink hole. (Sink Hole: Area...

Hi guys. First of all... hope you're all enjoying the holidays! Take at least a minute out of today to think about how lucky we all are. And on with a quick update: This is now day 17 of the grow. The pics are ordered by: - side view - top view - side detail - top detail -...

Thanks guys! Welcome to take a seat. :D As you can see from the pics in my 3rd post, theyre quite a distance from the lights. I'll try put something under the pot to raise it closer to the lights.

Heres todays update. Kamuzu is the big one, Kermits its little sibling. I had to give kermit a cesarian when he was born (The seed coating got caught round his cotyledon) Fingers crossed... The pics are in this order: Kamuzu side shot Kermit side shot Kamuzu top shot Kermit top...

Thanks T4. Yeah, once you go home grown, you won't want to ever buy again :D So, One week ago today, at exactly this time (22:30), I placed two seeds on the wet towel temple. And here you go... Kamuzu and Kermit. Tried to include a couple of side shots for perspective. Have a great feeling...

I'm using 3 litre pots. Theyre actually a little high, leaving only about 35cm clearance to the cfl's. Erm... yeah, I only checked that now... :¬! I think I better get some pots with a lower profile...

Those leaves are looking nice and fat. Looking good!

Those girls look really healthy... I Know I arrived late for this one... but Im definately watching it now :D Good luck!

They look great... I'm on Lowryders right now, but I'll definately look into these for a future grow... Great work!

Hi All, Here's my attempt at a grow journal. (I had started it under my PC Case Grow box guide, but I decided to move it here) Basically, Im using a PC Case, with ventilation, carbon filter, and combined 4300 Lumen CFL's, one 6400, the other 2700k. Temperature is a steady 26 deg. C...

Don, I remember trying that method with some old Malawi Gold seeds I had laying around for more than a year. The "sanded" seeds did seem to crack easier. Heres a quick update, not much to see.

Quick Update: One seed cracked open, and already had a 1/2 inch shoot in about 24 hours... thats the fastes germ. I ve seen. The second seed has cracked also, but the shoot is about 2mm only. I will plant the first seed in soil today, and the second one tomorrow. :D

Woo hoo! 10 feminised Lowryders arrived today. For germination, I used a paper towel in a little bowl, lots of boiled tap water, microwaved it for 4 minutes to sterilise everything, then I put two seeds in. Update on the box: I turned off the intake fan, and the temperature has shot up...
