Hey Mr. Vega - Can you please post some pics of your light setup?

This was my first attempt at an indoor grow.





















The CFLs actually saved my ass. Unfortunately my res was too warm and the Malawai was too slow and I got root rot.

I know a few of you threw up when you saw those roots. Makes me sick every time I look at those pics too.

The happy part of the story is that that plant got some clones clipped off and put outside in April last year. They loved it outside:

My CFLs made my closet really hot. How are your temps?

To be fair, my cheapo China CFLs ran hot. My Philips and GE lights I can touch.

I'm not mad Mo, just disappointed at where we were and what this has become. You are one of the ones that decided to stick it out. Where is everyone else? Nugs? Hovering? The others.... we didn't stop growing tga.

I am pretty sure VVB and WW are the same guy and only ever seem to talk about themselves or how they have a better way of doing whatever is the topic of the moment. I am not sure what their point is but it feels disruptive. The worst part about this is that sometimes I want to like their/his posts because they are interesting. I just don't want to support the negative behavior.

As for you Mr. Vega - I am not sure why Mike included you with them. Fluoros have their place just like LED, Plasma, HID... I think Mike just got disrupted by VVB and WW and you were collateral damage.

It is interesting that every time there is a shit storm on this thread it is because of WW and VVB. Are you paying attention mods?


Can we get back to growing medicine and sharing our love of growing?






Cheers,
Mo
Wise Mo!

I was thinking about buying some of those 30 foot long LED tapes they string around under kitchen cabinets and wrapping it around my plant to see if full coverage would make the plant explode with growth. You are already doing that with CFLs.

Nugbuckets uses fluoro tubes to veg his mainliners. I do not know if he has ever flowered under them.

I have two 36" HO T5s in my clone cabinet and they are enough to make my clones happy. They still like the sun better:

We are they Mike! We need to pass the wisdom we learned from them to these FNGs (meant lovingly).

You are the new Nugbuckets with your magazine published photos and your killer genetics.

Mr Vega is showing people that CFLs can grow dank too.

Us weed nerds are here to grow dank however we can and to share our knowledge with the world.

Haven't you heard. Recreational cannabis is LEGAL in two states. This country is going to need our help :)


Cheers,
Mo

Hiya. Happy camper here. My card renewal for med weed came today with a TGA seed landing of Conspiracy Kush, Cheesequake, Mickey Kush, and Marionberry Kush. I googled Shovelhead kush, along with TGA Subcool and nothing came up. Does anyone know the parents, has some of these in testing and growing them out? Like the name but what's in the bag? Peace :)

I grew under cfl's for a good year or two, and after started using hps.

I think that it isn't the bud quality that makes cfl's less desirable as a lighting source. I think it's the yield coupled with long flowering times.
Every strain I grew back then added 2-3 weeks to any reported flowering time.
I grew those very same strains later (under an hps) with much quicker bud production/flowering times.
But, again this is all imo.

Quality bud is quality bud, and if your thc/cbd numbers are high, they are high. But personally, I would rather grow under an hps because sativa-doms take long enough as is...let alone under cfl lighting. ;)
