Doob, I started that all on an impulse one day. We usually only smoke high-end shit (no pun intended) but my guy has been out of it the last month (big busts down here the last few months). The next best thing he had was "regs" with seed. We were very skeptical at first but it turned out to be some great shit. Not as good as our crip, but very indica heavy. Major couch-lock, narcotic high. On a whim, I took about 20 seeds and stuck them in some topsoil we had and planned to just let them fend for themselves. Then I found this site and started educating myself. About 8 sprouted and I decided to get serious with it. I transplanted them to better soil mixed with perlite. I bought a bunch of CFLs, mylar, fan, nutes, fert, molasses, etc. I've been really following the recommendations carefully. We lost 3 along the way for various reasons and now we have 5 generally healthy plants. 4 of the 5 have a very pungent skunky stink. The 5th has very little smell and it appears to be more sativa in appearance with the thin finger-like leaves.if you dont have a seperate veg room id suggest flowering all of them now. if you do you could wait till the 8" got to 12. what strains are these?
yeah really, a air cooled on can light the smallest grow well, check them at high tech High Tech Garden Supply, they have fairly cheap going models or at mogie's home made threads, she converted some security HPS system and gave some instructions on how to make a air cooled one i'm everything else but a fan of those security lights but if they are re-wired well and set up in a air cooled reflector they should be safe to use too.i would go at least 250 on a HPS, just to get the most out of your space. they have air cooled hoods that are cheaper than they sound. it's basicly a fitting on the light hood, flex tubing and an exhaust fan.
