First Grow Complete! Harvest Time!

Hey guys, I just finished harvesting my first plant... what a fucking amazing feeling (and smell too). Anyways hope ya like- personally I can't believe some wild-sprouted bagseed could become something so delicious. Just goes to show you what a little Foxfarm, TLC, and more than 300 watts of CFL's can do.



Yes ladies and gentlemen, another one of those RCC MF's gone off and grown the good shit- let the smokefest begin. (jk- it's already been cloudy for a while)



ps- next grow has already started w/ 6 seedlings: 1 cindy princess 99, 1 trainwreck, 1 x of the two, and the other 3 are orange kush bagseeds.
the babies are a week or so from flowering- i'll post up when i'm not blazed.



-peace

nicely done bro... what kind of soil and nutes did you use

Looking very sweet. I would love to know what the total weight is after dry. Enjoy it, you earned it.

nice grow man..yea tell us the wait when dried.. Happy Smoking

thx for the kind words everyone-

I used Miracle Grow Organic potting mix (starting with 50/50 verm/soil) and then moved to 100% soil. I used - Fish emulsion high nitro, some scotts 10-15-10, seaweed extract (.1-0-3), a local specialists 0-2-1, along with big bloom, a few tums (over time... calcium in the soil... you get it), and i used maple syrup instead of molasses for the flushes.

ps- 307.5 wet

Haha i like the picture with the dog just posted up chillen next to the plant

307.5 grams?

I just whipped out the calculator. That's like 11 ounces. If you get 30% of that in dry weight that will be 3 ozs. (plus)!!!!!!!!

One of the best CFL light setups I've seen in a while too. Great Job all around.

haha yea man! i couldn't f'n believe it. and to tell the truth i've probably already smoked at least 30g or so (wet) before harvest... just couldn't resist.
i think it really is all about light coverage/love man- cuz this baby was very nearly dead for a long time right before flowering. but that's life, apples and lemons, or something like that.

thanks again for all the kind words, i couldn't have done it without at least 20 emergency plant problem posts etc. this is a success story for everyone. ha. i'm really looking forward to this next round though- i'll be posting

pss- the dog's jake, and he looooooooves to toke-

almost as much as he loves knocking over the bong and eating the gross ass ice cubes inside hahaha. good times.

Wow! That is amazing! I am doing a cfl grow right now and after reading this thread, I have rearranged my lights like you have all around the plant. Hopefully I can get some decent buds!

WOOO!!! Another successful cfl grow.

Nice Job!!!!!!! Hope u & the pup enjoy it!!!

thanks guys- and grinda... i'd love to see some pics of your setup/rearrangement. this was my first grow, and after reading, discussing, observing, and experimenting i'm really sold on fluorescent light. natural, low heat- AND if you use HDepot's lights you can achieve an incredibly effective light spectrum their daylights = 5500k (great veg, even more so than 6500k i believe, due to the increased red-end of the spectrum), bright whites = 3500k (great for flowering but also has a good amount of blue light to support veg/leaves even during 12/12 etc) and the standard 2700k. after jackin' around with 'em a little bit i've decided 70/20/10 for early veg, 50/30/20 for end veg/early flowering, and 10/30/60 for end (maybe going 0/30/70 for the last week).

and- cfl's allow you to cater to each individual plant's needs. they take more work, but, guaranteed: the enjoyment of building everything just how you want it, just right, and watching the grow is almost reward enough and then the amazing bud at the end? i couldnt ask for more.

nicely done.

thank you sirs

Good job with your CFL grow! I'm one week from harvesting my single plant, grown with 4 45 watt cfls. hope to be enjoying the same satisfaction of some home grown goodness as you are, very soon!

Very nice grow, i just started flowering mine today, 12-42w(2700) and 4-26w(6500) temp=78, i love these little things

congrats on your 1st harvest + rep... Keep on growing

thx guys- i appreciate the kind words (and rep haha). and i know exactly what you mean about "those little guys." CFL's are just hella fun lol.

and please post up w/ flowering pics- i'd love to see the setup (im still waiting on HD and Lowe's vert saw to be fixed so i can have walls/roof on flowering box)
