Hey all,

I've been planning to grow some Feminizied Autoflower Bubblelicious seeds for a while and I've been building a growbox which I have given up on since I am going to just build a custom box once I get a few more paychecks.


Here's what I'm working with:
  • Feminized autoflower Bubblelicious seeds from Nirvana
  • 4 x 26W cfls (2300k)
  • 12/12 light cycle (I'll explain later)
  • cheap walmart soil
  • 2 x 10" pots
  • Acurite thermometer
  • Emergency blanket walls
  • Cabinet from Target
I'm doing a 12/12 cycle for several reasons: 1, I hear the summer batch of Nirvana bubb autos don't autoflower. 2, this will act as an experimental grow so I can try and fine-tune some growing skills before I put more money into a custom box. And 3, I am desperate for weed so I just want to get a little before I concentrate on yield next grow. Enjoy the ride, guys. Peace

EDIT: These pics were taken today, Day 2 (from sprout).

Oh and I heard lots about summer batch of nirvana autos having problems too. But it seems after researching that they start to flower between 3 and 5 weeks which is a little longer than most autos.

Hey, thanks lulu. Yeah for my next grow I'm just going to do the normal light cycle of 18/6 for the whole grow, but this one is just kinda practice I guess you can say. This one has to stay on the down low because of my roommates.

Hey, today is Day 4 and here is your update.

Yesterday I increased the light cycle from 12/12 to 18/6 because growth would be very slow and it doesn't make that much sense so I will keep it on this cycle for 1-2 weeks and then flip it back to 12/12. I may add two more lights which I took out due to heat problems. It stays in the low 80s during the day and cools down to the mid 70s overnight. I watered yesterday and they seem to be liking it. The 2nd leaf set is coming in, as well.

Word, napa.

Okay so here's the update. Today is Day 6 and I'll be watering before I put the plants to bed. Temps are still running a lil higher than I want them so I may try to get a better fan or move my cab this weekend. I also need to prepare for the smell soon.
