Looking forward to seeing her. And in other news, my baby (while burned all over) is showing improvement in her new growth. Hopefully it didn't stunt her too badly.
But yeah, excited to see your new pics man, I like the way this is going. I'm considering transplanting my girl into a plastic tray and moving her into a hollowed out PC myself, just don't have the tools to strip out the parts that don't screw out of it.

Yeah without a decent cutting tool like a dremel you can stuggle a lot on these cases, look trough the beginning of the blog, it covers the making of my PC case, maybe you can pick up a few tricks!

and thanks for the intrest in my lady =D I should get some pics up pretty soon!

Peace

Good news! yesterday I found 3 bagseeds in one baggie of Bubblegum! =D so once my sweet cheese runs out I'm covered for seeds if one of em turns out female ofcourse.

 

[dajosh42069]

*jealous*
I decided to grow a random chron bagseed I had, an a mexican ditch weed sativa seed I had. Decided that i'm putting a lot of work and effort (and power) into just one plant. Figured if i'm gonna take all the risk and go to all the trouble, I might as well grow 2. Don't think the mexican ditch weed will stick around for the whole grow though, they get fuckin' TALL. And I just don't have the room for em.
Besides, good chance it could be male as well.

 

[NerdGrower]

Yeah you need to decide how to fill your cabinet you do have more room than me so 2 plants should be fine

I'll upload some pics tomorrow morning

peace

Day 31:

So it looks like she's properly flowering now! =D white pistels showing in different places and starting to smell lovely! =D

So excited right now, can't wait to see her when I get back on Sunday =D I dropped down the planter a bit so she has a bit more room to grow during the time I'm not here, also gave her a good watering to keep her satisfied

Pics of the day:

Beautiful! Only 10 days ahead of mine, but the growth is impressive! That's great that she's starting to flower already! My gal will be at 12/12 within a day or 2. I've been keeping her at 15/9 or so to promote some veg growth to make up for her stunted nature. But i'll ease her into 12/12 She'll be at 14/10 today, then 13/11 sunday, before being at full 12/12 on monday.
Your ladie is gorgeous though man, I can't wait to see what she yields you.

Since this is an autoflower theres no need for light schedule changes I can just keep it at 18/6 or even 20/4 if I want to which means she can use more light while flowering, which means more bud! =D
And thanks bud! SO proud of her I'll be starting the nutes when I get back home, starting with a 1/6 strength just to be sure not to burn her So excited!

It actually means u can have 24hr light. I never turned my lights off for my entire grow and got some lovely bud!

I might try 24/7 lighting for the flowering period

Day 33:

So not such good news today for one one of my lights has stopped working, no idea why, will look into it tomorrow.
Also my baby is looking kind of droopy after 2 days of solitude! =[ also the lower leaves have started to show some yellowing. Maybe this is my sign to start with flowering nutes?
I just don't wanna risk harming her now that she's looking a bit weak. But hey, that's why I post here, judge for yourselves:

 

[dajosh42069]

Has she had ANY flowering nutes yet?

Also, CFL's go out all the time. The self ballasts just burn out and that's that. You'll likely need to replace it. There's pretty much no repairing CFL's.

Nope, so far she has recieved no nutes what so ever, parhaps the soil is just running out?

And darn! Stupid CFLs I think I'm going to slowly replace them with LEDs
I'll give her a watering today with 1/6 the recommended dose, see how she looks tomorrow.

peace

I've read your whole log, I'm really excited watching it! I want to do something similar, if auto's don't need the lights turned off, I could do a feminised auto in one of my bigger PC cases, I'm an IT guy as well, and starting a mush grow

What types of mj are short? I want something short, and potent. herbies shop looks good, would a 70% indica be short enough for a PC case? or is 100% indica recommended?

Thanks for the interest! =D I'm excited aswell it's been a real experience!

If you're looking for a short strain indicia dominant is very much the way to go. Strains like Royal Dwarf are especially designed for small stealth grows. They are feminised autoflower seeds that grow short and quick. I got my seeds from royal queen seeds, they also sell the Royal Dwarf. And it's a cannabis cup winner so it shouldn't be a bad smoke. They're about 5 euros per seed.

Make sure to make a blog when you start growing! these people here are so helpful, and I'll make sure to follow it aswell

Hope I helped!

 

[mazzah]

yeah I'll definitely do a journal of my grow, I'm growing mushies right now, so after my first few grows I'll probably have enough money to make a cannabis setup as well
I have like 20 PC cases so I'm sure I can figure out which one is the biggest case out of those and start setting that up, I'm a perfectionist so I'll definitely make my PC case grow look good
I may even start sooner, depending on how much money I've got.
I'm also big into electronics, so I could use some resistors to slow down fans, etc to make the right airflow and such, and I'm a perfectionist with cable management, so you probably won't see many cables in there either.
been doing IT for ages.

I try to make mine look as clean as possible, but I'm no expert on electronics but hey, I'm looking forward to your PC case design I've seen some impressive stuff around here so you can always snoop around here some more for some tips and tricks on stealth and such

 

[Greeengal]

Did you LST her? It'll help to increase your yield for your small space. It might be a little too far along now, but if you're careful you could probably do it.

It was my original plan to LST her but I waited too long to do it and now it's too late I'll def do it on my next grow

 

[dajosh42069]

Yeah, flower is too late for sure.
And to mazzah, its hard to find a 100% indica plant these days. But as long as you LST (low stress train) her it should be fine. Just get an indica Dom lady an you'll be set.
If you have a little more space,and/or freedom to do, the fans from those PC's could come n real handy. Check out my grow in my SIG. She got a lil burned, and the box isn't so stealthy, but its a good concept for you to follow if you wanting something like it.
