Oh, I'm not really bashing... LOL... I was feeling frisky. I absolutely adore CFL's for some weird strange reason... I am an old lady and it is just creepy how excited I get over high powered CFL's... I nearly peed myself in the aisle at Home Depot when I found the 300 watters!!!~

I chose CFL's on purpose but I feel like I am always defending my choice...

Here's one for the coffers, though... I did the math and I can run ALL my CFL's, approximately 3000 watts equivalent, for just under $6 a month in electricity during flower. Since I plan to go 12/12 from seed for the foreseeable future, it really does make this an affordable hobby for me.

But like I always say, there are wrong ways to grow weed, but there is NO one right way. For me CFL's work and I like it!

Sorry if I came off as bitchy. I'm outta weed and it's makeing me testy... :lol:
no maam! were good.i like them too!i have 342 watts.250hps&4 23 w cfls.my old flouros&cfls i could spread the light out more,making ME happier.i have a super lumens switch i can hit,but im not trying for a yeild.just beans.

For the record, I do intend to get "real" lights some day, but the bud is going to have to pay for it cuz I ain't got the funds!

I'm thinking of hanging a 1000w HID fixture up in the grow room just to say I have one in there. Whether or not I can afford to run it remains to be seen...LOL

VERY VERY, spindly.
Still Very VERY young !

Got a ways to go... plus they are Sativa Dominate... they take a little longer to beef up and finish ... but they carry a bigger punch.

And well... they are in cups... i think they are turning out OK in there stage, they will start to swell here in about a week or two.

I think they look fabulous! This has been a fun grow to watch. I don't know why, but I absolutely love the one that is bent over about double. Did you do that or did she just hit the top and turn around? In either case, I am always fascinated by plants that have unique shapes.

I can't wait to see these ladies fluff up. You're doing great mate!

How many days flowering are you now? not bad for those tiny cups :clap:

I planted them on a wed .... so we are going into week 3 of flower to be exact.... not all of them showed sign of sex all at once.. so for some they are going onto week 2.

2 - 3 weeks of flow is all they have had so far.

can't wait to get these finished !!!


(the 4th of Nov is when i found my first fem, they all started turning after that.)

Thanks guys !!!! Love the positive input .. and loving each others gardens !!!!

Keep em strong and green guys !!!!
