Allrighty Folks! Here she goes! While I normally grow outdoors, i've grown restless while waiting for april. I have almost everything I need for my outdoor operation, and now i'm just going crazy pulling my pud counting down till April.
So i started a little pet project. This is my first attempt at growing indoors and I decided to go the "el cheapo" route by choosing CFL's. This really is just an experiment to pass the time till I can get a real grow going in the great outdoors, but hey, i love to grow!
I must admit, the catalyst to this whole process was the idea of getting clones to "jumpstart" my grow. I started germing some bagseeds from 5 years ago, but in the meantime I picked up one "G-Mac 7" and one "Kushage" clone. Well, not too wise an idea, as clones come with all the problems of shitty Cannabis Club mis-management. I.E. Fungus Gnats, but I think I nipped that in the bud with some neem and spinosad.
So as promised, here's some pics. This first set is pretty much day one. In these pics, I believe I'm running 5 x 26w 6500k and 2 x 23w 2700k. I blacked out a built-in wardrobe with some 8mil black plastic sheeting and a shit-ton of duct tape, and i'm securing it with plastic clips at this point. My girl picked up these clones for me, and they were stretched out as fuck. She knows more about growing than the idiots who run that club, and all that she learned from listening to me read posts on here! The Kushage is on the left, G-Mac on the right.
Some pics of homemade powerstrip fixtures, timer, mylar emergency blanket and a little fan for circulation.

I doubt i'll get anything smokeable off them, and probably just use them to make BHO and Iso Hash. It's the seedlings i'm interested in growing out. The clones are my adopted project, I just saved them from the orphanage where they were being malnourished. The seedlings are my "real" children, and i'll always love them more then their ugly stepsisters (though i'd never tell the clones that!) Haha...Thanks for dropping by and props on the kind words!
