vegging with a 600w is not the cheapest but the end justifies the means, cfl's haven't got the penetration that a 600 has so cfl vegged plants grow straight up with not much branching out limiting bud sites compared to the hps or m/halide IMO.

8 weeks and growing....straight from 12/12 without a veg period. I have also crossed a DPQxBX2cheese male with this one, hopefully can get some of that vigour (which has got to come from Thai linneage) and added odour from the cheese with hopefully a shorter flower period, (i.e all the ideal traits in one, hahaha) Anyhoo, here's the beast...




Not quite a GHB's cola size, but you can't even see my fingers around the other side.....and I got big fingers :shock: Still another 4-5 weeks to go as well!!!


Some Deep Blue Livers curing in the jar...


and my little Malawi


More pics in the Breeding Showcase....DOG CHEESE, BX2 Backcross and more...

Peace, DST

I've gotten decent branching from cfls. not as good as my 400w mh but it isnt bad... Some t5's would prob create some heavy branching sim to a mh in around the same am.t time

Lol DST it does look like a soft pillow though.. they be rock solid by march 3rd though

@ DST - The only thing at my house is the veg room right now. I was referring to the new place which is also a house, just not the one I live in. I rent the garage from someone I know I can trust. They needed the extra money and I needed the space, win win.

Besides, now we get to hang out a lttle more and we weren't getting together very often over the past couple of years so I gues it's a win from that standpoint too.

Anyone got any tips for setting the regulator? I'll get a controller or ppm meter as soon as I can but for now need to wing it a bit.

iv'e said it a million times. it's always nice to have someone you can trust. but i know nothing about regulators. do you know how long after a male shows balls does pollen start dropping?

Highlander grows his plants more like SOG style, single colas, but I think cfls can do the job for vegging. I always give my plants some veg time under HID's unless they are going straight into 12/12, but I would also swear by cfl's as well. It can be hard sticking a 600w bulb in a 50cm squared space. You are then battling with heat. I have even done the first couple of weeks of my min cheese scrog under cfl's and they were happy as larry. CFL's FTW <<<<ahahahaha, only joking, but they are definitely not to be left out of an indoor garden, there is always use for them.

As i said not much side branching more vertical growth, i know some of the plants are sativas and they grow tall but when i veg a sativa under a 600 the side branches grow big and long i have vegged with cfl and hps, i personally prefer the 600 the yield is much bigger

as i said above i do use cfl's but only for the 1st couple of weeks then they go under the 600, i have a 125 cfl for cloning and seedlings as you say D a 600 would total overkill for clones and seeds, i could be wrong but i can't see a plant yield 6 or 7 oz after being vegged under a 300w cfl

@3eyes I just did the same thing, and I was very pleased w/ the results. About 10 days is all it took to bush out my ladies and make them ready to go after their stint under the flos. How long you usually veg 'em for under HID?

deep blue is the same as livers is also called blues...so either deep Blue or Livers...Deep Blue is better me thinks as a name. But it's Westy's to decide.

As far as I know it's strain dependent. A little male RBC that I grew 12/12 from seed showed balls and it was only about a week or two later my girls all got spluffed by him.

Pretty big range there, dez . . .

But heck, I don't know the answer either. I haven't seem a male plant since last July. What do they look like again????? Balls, you say. hmmmm

:D

1 week is a big range? I didn't realize, lol.

Just kidding bro. I'm not really sure but nobody had chimed in so I just offered up what has happened to me so far. Mine was small since it was 12/12 from seed so who knows if it behaved normally.
