The extra CFL's can't hurt IMO. If you got the money to pay the electric bill who cares what it looks like as long as you're packing on the bud weight. And yea, for a 5/5 space you have allot going on, you're space looks maximized really well. I personally wish I was in the same position as you, because you're going to harvest like a pound off those ladies.Thanks--forgot to mention that I added some CFL's as well. More light = better results! Looks a little non-professional I guess haha but who cares...figured the corners could use a little more light anyway!

Thanks man! Yea it was my favorite strain in Amsterdam so I thought I'd give it a shot. Sticking with your journal as well....can't wait to see your results! I love looking at pictures of people that are growing the same genotypes to see how they turn out.Cheers Fattycaps,
Thanks for posting in my journal, else I would've never known of this cool journal. Chocolope is part of my regular rotation and has to be one of my favorite sativas! Holy cow, what a beautiful aroma from flower to your bowl. Also, the taste is awesome all the way to the end of the joint/bowl.
Nice looking setup and all. Good luck on this forest of buds!

Thanks man. Like I said in my prior post, I think it was a little bit of nute burn. I backed off the nutes a tad and dropped my ppms down. It wasn't bad, so I think I was just slightly off. Plus as my water levels would drop, my ppms would rise, which tells me that the plants were taking in more water than they were nutrients. When the perfect balance is met, the ppms shouldn't fluctuate with the water level. Hopefully all is well now--time will tell!!!Looking good man... I'm 5 days behind you. I took that leaf that was freaking out and I chopped it off my plant. I haven't seen anything like our "cold" on any other parts of the plant. So far so good right? Can't wait to see more. Keep up the good work.
Just out of curiosity, what was the flower time on your GC?Thanks man. Like I said in my prior post, I think it was a little bit of nute burn. I backed off the nutes a tad and dropped my ppms down.

I think I flowered for about 70 days or so.....if I remember correctly haha. I know it was definitely a little longer than 60.Just out of curiosity, what was the flower time on your GC?
I heard it was a 45 day strainI think I flowered for about 70 days or so.....if I remember correctly haha. I know it was definitely a little longer than 60.

Could be...mine definitely wasn't. I have a microscope and I was always checking the trichs...took well over 60 days to get them to be about 90% cloudy and 10% amber. Maybe mine just took a little longer...who knows. Definitely curious in your results though to see if you finish a little earlier.....I heard it was a 45 day strain
At the rate they are flowering I really don't see 45 days happening either... I haven't seen any trich development yet... Which is slightly disappointing. I mean you take a look around at the other journals and other strains seem to be doing better at this stage in flower. It could also be because I put them strait into flower from the cloning chamber, and most of them where hardly 6 inches by then. Hoping to see something happen over the next 2 weeks! :OCould be...mine definitely wasn't.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Just keep toughing it out, some take longer than others. On my last grow it took well over 80 days for a few of my plants....definitely longer than I originally thought haha.At the rate they are flowering I really don't see 45 days happening either...
