510 actual watts CFL grow 6 female plants

Ok, I have flushed befoe going into full bloom to get rid of the salts and other toxic stuff to leave my pots, and my plant loved it.

Here are a few pics for you to enjoy

Lookin Good Bro, lookin damn good. Whats height of tallest in there, Aprox....?

your grow is awesome hope mine turns out as good. :']

Looking great. I keep my girls a lot shorter due to space issues, but you have some healthy girls. +rep

Looks Really well set up and all but you need to bring those cfls couple inches to your foliage... Good Luck Bro.

Those are 85watt cfl s each so they emit some heat, I have found that this is the optimum distance, which is is around 6 inches.

Here is a photo of a smaller side bud (started the cyrstal production)

Of course they emit heat all cfls do, my 45 watters are huge nad produce quite some heat, with a fan you should have nothing to fear bringing them to 2 inche awat, itll just help.

I did and it stopped them from growing and when I looked at the temp that close to the 85w cfl it was around 96-98F
So it means 85 watt ones are emitting much more heat than 45 watt ones
I am aiming to test doubling the number of cfl and using lower watts per lamp.

sorry double post

I put a photo make it up

your girls look so good. you should end up with a pretty good harvest considering you didnt train any of your plants. i love everything about your grow and set up, it is a huge insperation to me, props

Yeah, I am using 7- 27actual watt daylight and 2- 45 actual watt + 1 -27 actual watt soft white cfls, with my 5 seedlings and getting good results, but my
temps are running at about 88 to 90 degrees F with a fan. Oh well, guess I'll pot an air conditioning unit in my closet, lol.

Your girls look awesome! Gives me nothin' but hope. Thanks so much for your thread.

Sorry about the double post, but can you detail how you put your feeding system together? Maybe a list of supplies and a "recipe".

That's a wicked sweet set up you have there man. Good work and good luck!!

Thanks for all the kind words
Everything is going fine, I have roughly 50 more days to go...

About the feeding system, it is the simplest thing to build.

1.Just go out and buy an aquarium water pump, the one which sends water from sump to the aquarium, you dont need a powerful one, but do not get the weakest, actually this depends on how many plants you re planning to feed.

2.Get a water container (reservoir), I got a coolbox, so that the water temp is not effected too much by the growroom.

3.Buy some aquarium ducting, it is called soft pipe.

4.Then there is the terminal(every aquarium shop I ve been named this differently), it is basically where one inlet goes in and is divided into any number of outlets you like, I got a modular one of 5 outlets as I have 5 plants to feed.

5.The the timer for controlling the equipment.

This is all the equipment you need to buy.

a.Now put the pump inside the container,
b.connect a pipe coming out of it,
c.drill a hole on top of the reservoir, take the pipe out of it.
d.Connect that pipe to the terminal you have. I fixed the terminals on top of the reservoir with double sided 3m so it is not moving around.
e.Then connect your pipes to the end of the terminals. The terminals have a control on top each to control the amount of water passing through. Adjust them so equal amount of water goes through them.
f.Connect the pumps ac into your timer
g.Fill your reservoir with your feeding water, and do not start the pump without any water.

this is it!

Control how it works, This is important. Like I took 5 water bottles each 1liters. Put the timer on half an hour, and checked how much it filled. I can make two half an hour feeds and feed 1 liters of water to each pot. This is actually the most important stage, the calibration, be careful and spendd enough time on this until you are 100percent satisfied and sure it works like a dream.

I hope it helps, if you have any questions just ask.

I am really happy with where this is going

what do you think?

Great looking ladies!! Are they starting to stink?

Very nice..... i just scrolled threw the entire thread and was very impressed....subscibed!Not much longer to go.....

Do you like close-up shots

Yes I do, their looking pretty good there.

Hey man, could you link me to the EXACT exhaust fan that you are using??? I have issues keeping my tent under 90... sigh
