what i would like to see is a 400w HPS vs 400w of CFL
I've done this. If you have ventilation/can control heat the HPS wins. No ventilation the CFL wins easy. And of course start up cost the CFL wins.what i would like to see is a 400w HPS vs 400w of CFL
LOL, that is funny... Well funny you should ask about Alice 2 cuz I just put her into flower tonight! I decided she's vegged long enough. I topped her a couple of times about 10 days ago so she is all set and ready. I had to get a bigger box (cuz the grow room is full and her grow box was getting that way too. She was cut from her mom, Alice, 55 days ago today.dam that is awsome Bluejeans, how long you gonna let alice veg for ?
i am currently tracking another friends journal and he also named one of his plants Alice....kinda funny
not sure just did a quick E bay search for a cheap HID light.That little HPS is pretty cute for the price. Does it run MH?
I have to admit I thought the idea of taking a clone a week or so before harvest was insane. But newbies will often do whatever some experienced sounding person tells them to do. I trusted the guy who told me to do it so I did, without a clue what to expect. I had never cut a clone in my life. I have since determined that I was right on my game to trust this guy, not only in this, but I'd trust anything he told me to do with my plants. So there is great help to be found here on RIU.wow, crazy what you can do with a little TLC, she looks great. you going to keep any clones? i have been following a thread the guys is trying to keep clones in fridge for 60 days, i think hes at 5 weeks now.

so you could waitt ill all is harvested. not sure if its going to root for the guy or not just waiting to find out.
hopefully, im gettin impatient waiting for some pollen sacs/pistols here. still no signs but i guess the plant continuing to vegg isnt such a bad thing. the more i can fill up my screen the better at this point.lots of great updates! hoping to see some bud pictures soon!
Yea man, SCROG seems to be the way to go. Thats the way I'm going to try my first indoor. I SCROG about all of my outdoor plants to a certain degree. Usually plant into the fencerow and weave the limbs horizontal as they grow. End up with some wicked looking outdoor plants and good yields. I started mine this past season under light for the first time. Used four 23w CFL veg bulbs. Topped them the Uncle Ben way to get four main colas. They made some great starts. I feel CFL is the most efficient way to go at least the first part of vegging even if you're running HID.
i just wasnt sure if you wanted to keep the strain around. i cant wait to order some beans myself and i think once i get some feminized beans im going to do an ultimate LST ScROG with one of the freebies that i will grow alongside my perpetual. im really hoping i can find some Blue Cheese to grow.I have to admit I thought the idea of taking a clone a week or so before harvest was insane.

As for keeping further clones, I've decided no. I have lots and lots of things I want to grow and I have a few seeds now that I can't wait to pop. Coupled with extremely limited growing space, and I just have to make some decisions. I know that I will never have "Alice" again after this, but there are plenty of awesome strains out there just waiting for me to grow them.
Haha, an "ULTIMATE LST ScROG"! I like it bro! I'm running a blue cheese and a blue dream next my next go. Both bagseed of course. The blue cheese was so Fucking good. Didn't have any blue hues to it, smelled like stupid fruity blueberries, but the taste was a heavy heavy cheesy explosion on my pallet . Wish it would have has the cheese smell too! Maybe that will come out in the pheno I get!i just wasnt sure if you wanted to keep the strain around. i cant wait to order some beans myself and i think once i get some feminized beans im going to do an ultimate LST ScROG with one of the freebies that i will grow alongside my perpetual. im really hoping i can find some Blue Cheese to grow.
for the ultimate LST ScROG i will be growing 1 plant in a 30 gal rubbermaid tote, it will be feminized so i can start the LST process early and vegg as long as i want without worying about all that work and getting a maleHaha, an "ULTIMATE LST ScROG"!
