Well I sure do now!! Now that I've watched this seed grow up, I can't wait to get my hands on some good strains and better equipment. In fact, I've been reading a lot about breeding and I think I'm going to try it if I can ever get a big enough set-up going. I want a sticky icky strain with MY name on it :lol::weed:

Haha big dreamer right?

I am definitely going to be expanding soon though, and if my goals come to fruition, then I should have a set-up capable of breeding. I'm a firm believer in quality, and I generally trust my ability over the ability of others. There is too much shitty weed where I am, and I'm frankly sick of it. If anyone wants to throw out advice I'm all ears.

BTW, the flowers are bigger :) More pics soon.

Thanks guys!

I put the large plant into flower March 11, so exactly one week ago today. The smaller seedlings were put into flower March 13. They were BARELY showing pre-flowers at the time, so I'm hoping they can push through and live. I'm not very concerned if they die though. They're just "extra" at this point.

Oh and good news....the big girl finally got transplanted into a 5-gallon pot today with what I'm anticipating to be a better soil mixture. And, on top of that, I not have

2-45W CFLS
2-42W CFLS
4-26W 6500k CFLS

all in a small closet completely lined with mylar. I am not home now or I would post pics, but I PROMISE I will post pics tomorrow.

Nice job. I too am growing under cfl's in a small 4x2 area in closet. My babies have been vegging for a week, five plants total. Would be happy with one female, hope it happens. Question, I had to go to an electrical store to find 4100k, 32 watt cfl's. At Wallyworld and Lowes I could only find 2700k bulbs. Which brand are u using and where did you buy, thanks!!!

I'm just using the easy to find General Electric brand bulbs. I bought most of mine at Ace Hardware, but the 45watts I could only find at HyVee. Good luck with the grow man. I hope you get more than just one female.

You cant find them at lowes? hmm I wonder why because in the northEast where I live you can find anything from 2700-6500k bulbs ranging from 19watt to 68watt 2700k cfl monsters.

Alright now the exciting part! Can't wait to see some big beautiful babies on there
They're getting bigger and more beautiful by the day!! I can't wait to go from ":weed:" to
"bongsmilie" to ":eyesmoke:"


As far as Lowes goes, the nearest one to me is about 35 minutes away, so I haven't even looked there yet. But, there is a Home Depot nearby and its selection did not impress me.

Looks awesome man. You usually the same distilled water I am from wally word haha.

I'll be keeping a eye on this one, after looking at your threads I checked the bottom of my pot and noticed the roots are coming out the bottom and its time for me to transfer to a 5 gallon also!
