    1st Tub CFL Grow w/ bagseed

    I ended picking up two 5-gallon pots to transplant. I transplanted a little while ago hopefully they will be okay.

    1st Tub CFL Grow w/ bagseed

    Thanks for the quick response! What size pots do you usually grow in? Do you think moving to a 5 gallon pot would be better at 6 weeks into flowering? I think it would help the plants as my 2nd plant is not as green as I'd like. I am not quite sure what the problem is with the leaves turning...

    1st Tub CFL Grow w/ bagseed

    Honestly, this has been a really enjoyable experience growing these plants and I have learned a ton. I wish I could disappear for a while and have someone take care of my plants. I love checking on my plants multiple times a day but it's really getting hard to tell if there is new growth. I will...

    Show Off Your Buds (Pics) (Cfls only)

    How long do you guys typically flower for? I know it's different for every strain but I was just curious. It took 7.5 weeks for SeeMoreBuds grow in the book and ragincajun is at 11 weeks. I have been following his book pretty closely for the most part. Does anyone know if he harvested early...

    Total days 109 - Flowering 37 days (5 weeks) The buds are getting bigger and new buds keep popping out. The smell is starting to get stronger. I can see trichomes forming on all the buds. Some look so juicy and packed full of crystals I just want to eat them. :mrgreen: Watered plants...

    letting my cfl's hang?bad idea?

    Sure... I have all my lights hanging. I know my setup is not the most pleasant on the eyes but my girls have turned out alright. I have had the light drop on the plant a few times and it did receive some minor burns. I have a grow journal the link is in my signature if you want to check it out.

    34 days into flowering and leaves severely yellowing!

    Alright, well my plants are 34 days into flowering and my leaves are yellowing on my 2nd plant all the way to the top. It is a soil grow and I am flowering with cfls. The leaves are starting to turn to a lighter green but the leaves are definitely not drooping which seems a bit abnormal. pH was...

    1st Tub CFL Grow w/ bagseed

    Thanks for your advice! I was thinking about moving the lights closer but wasn't sure how to. I finally moved them closer, it just took a long time to fix everything. I typically use about 2 tbsp of molasses with every watering. With the last watering I decided not to use it as an experiment. I...

    1st Tub CFL Grow w/ bagseed

    Total days 102 - Flowering 30 days (4 weeks) I was out of town 1 day too long last week before the plants got watered and it made plant #1 wilt and plant #2 leaves started turning yellow. This gave both plants some minor shock but I needed to dry out my soil because of my gnat problem. Gnats...

    First closet grow! any suggestions?

    I would get at least 4-6 42w 2700k bulbs for your grow. I am being crazy myself running 20 CFL's for 2 plants. I think I will be getting a 250w hps setup for my next grow to conserve some energy.

    Buds for Less - CFL BOOK

    In your second picture, it kind of looks like a male plant but I can't tell because the pictures are blurry. You will have to look at the nodes to see if a round green ball is forming (male pre-flower) or pistil (female).

    1st Tub CFL Grow w/ bagseed

    GE 42 watt 2700k are available at Wal-Mart for I believe $8.50 so they are cheaper than Home Depot. I used GE 26w 6500k for the veg stage. You can also purchase bulbs at www.1000bulbs.com. I recommend getting "Y" socket adapters so you can plug in 2 bulbs instead of one. I will definitely let...

    1st Tub CFL Grow w/ bagseed

    Seedling & Vegetative Stages I decided to post some photos from seedling to flowering stage they are in now. When I first started growing I under watered the plants so they were slow growing. Why did I choose bagseed? It was my first grow and I didn't want to screw up on expensive seeds...

    Topped! plant! 1 month old. 25 days flowering.

    How long have you been flowering here? They look similar to my buds a little bit. I wasn't sure what I was doing at first and vegged for 71 days before starting to flower.
