How many clf's are you using to flower those babies? I have a nice clone from my outdoor plants that is in doors, but due to not being able to exhaust my closet I cannot use my 400 watt HPS. So I've been flowering with 5 cfl's. The brightest ones I could get that werent blue. I have been wondering if these cfl's can flower well or not..yours look nice...all cfl's?

well if it's just one plant you should be able to get away with 5 CFL's but it depends on the wattage. what's the k rating on em? less than 3000? they can definitely flower your plants, i used strictly CFL from seedling to week 6 then threw in an HPS. check out the pics and u can see the difference though. just make sure to keep em close to the plant. thanks for the comment. just germinated some Northern Lights seeds and i'll have a thread for those as well. keep us updated. got any pics?

you can definitely have 3 plants in there. at one point i had 4 in each 13 gallon tub. don't plant on transplanting them though cuz the roots will get trashed unless u section it off.

is it possible to get away with throwing 3 plants in there and go SCOG or would you suggest a bigger tub?

Week 9

took these pics last weekend (labor day weekend). think we'll pull the plants and harvest this weekend so i can get my 4 new Northern Lights seedlings in the closet. upgrading for the next grow 400w HPS with a cooltube and cfl supplemental for the lower branches.

also going with separate buckets for each plant. the 13 gallon works (actually started with 2 13 gallon tubs), great with the setup i had but it's just too much of a hassle to move around in the small space i have. so we're goin' with Home Depot orange buckets on the next grow. don't u wish u could get sponsorship from everyone whose products u used in your grow? haha

well the bagseed project will soon be outta the picture and we'll be off on a new adventure with the ol' NL's. here's some new pics and i'll definitely keep everyone updated with the harvest weight and pics. as i said....not expectin' a ton. whole point of this thread was to check out how the tubs worked and what i could do with the space i made.

ALSO, stared lowering the temps a bit to get some purple out of em, so far just a bit has shown. u can see in one of the budshots i took in the following pics. have a good one folks. feel free to holler at me. i'll be sittin' at the office for quite a while today.

Enjoy my library of pics from the past week. hahaha
