    Dutch Passion Fem. Strawberry Cough under 600w HPS

    I have two questions... First, should I continue to trim off the larger fan leaves to this plant? I've heard doing so can redirect nutes and hormones to the buds which is a good thing. I realize, too, that the leaves are responsible for photosynthesis blah blah so tell me, does trimming some...

    Dutch Passion Fem. Strawberry Cough under 600w HPS

    Nah unfortunately it's not a clone from the last plant. I'm glad to hear your buddies turned out well. I don't think this plant will be yielding anywhere near 3 ounces, but it was also root bound for a month or so in its early life and got waaaaay stretched as well. Don't get me wrong, this...

    Dutch Passion Fem. Strawberry Cough under 600w HPS

    Thought I would share some pics of my girl with you all. She had a pretty rough start, but I'm happy to see here where she is today. For set up I'm using... 5 Gallon Bucket Miracle Gro Organic Soilless mix Fox Farm Nutes - Very heavy feeding for this strain!! 600w HPS and a few hundred...

    First Grow, Bagseed, on a Budget

    Thanks for all the comments!! @Captain Canabis - Wally world is where it's at! And I would highly recommend a transplant. As long as you aren't too late into flowering it can do nothing but good for your harvest. As far as the foxfarm nutes go, a friend is lending me his. I know he got them...

    How long do CFL's take?

    It's okay to start flowering your plant at any time, but giving a plant or seedling 12/12 light before it starts to show distinctive pre-flowers (pistols-female, nuts/balls-male) is said to be stressful on the plant. To my knowledge the only downside to stressing a plant is possible stunted...

    Can't wait to see the show bro! I hear rumors floating around that Heavy Petal is the dankest of the dank. ;-)

    First Grow, Bagseed, on a Budget

    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...

    2nd Grow 12/12 from Seed

    Very cool man...Lemon tree included! How are your seeds doing that were started in 12/12 light? And do you know how this effects the plants beyond presumabley making them begin to flower sooner/causing a smaller harvest? I ask because I recently started some seeds under 18/6 light, but was...

    What exactly is false pregnancy? Never heard of that before.

    First Grow, Bagseed, on a Budget

    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.

    First Grow, Bagseed, on a Budget

    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...

    first time cfl's grower...i need advice.

    If you have an Ace Hardware, Home Depot, Lowes, or Wal-Mart nearby you should be able to find some light bulb sockets that will plug directly into an outlet or extension cord. They're cheap...like a $1 + change and tax. Then screw a "Y" splitter into that. It will turn your bulb socket into...

    First Grow, Bagseed, on a Budget

    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...

    Looks great man! I'm loving the big bud in your first pic. How much longer do you plan to flower?

    Heres what cfl's can do

    Looks damn awesome man!:bigjoint: I just started my first grow and I'm using bagseed with 26w and 42w CFLs as well. Just put my girl into flower two days ago. Your pics just gave me a lot more confidence. I was worried that CFLs wouldn't perform very well for flowering, but you just proved...

    First Grow, Bagseed, on a Budget

    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...
