Growing with CFL's on a budget...

oh and dude go to Kmart, ask them for power timers, you can buy a timer and set your lights so you only need to go down to water! plants grow faster on an consistent light schedule, my timer just plugs into the outlet and u set how long you want darkness for. costs only 9.99! really good investment, doesn't matter if your not home for a day or if you forget the lights.

Alright man..i will for sure check them out..:weed:
 
alright kool...I seen the Brinks branded one that was like $5 but look cheaply built...so i didnt get that one. A buddy of mine give me one of his so im good now lol.
 
i just got the starting of spidermites.. cheapist solution is to order "hotshot no-pest strips" for about 5-10$, i think some rite aids and walmarts have them.

it doesnt take alot to do the trick.

put one or two out to start with, mites will use their defense mechinism and burro into your soil (where they wait) <---- thats why they are impossible to rid

the second you turn your lights to 12/12 put out another one to kill the bastards coming up to ruin ur bud. aparently this method works for people having problem with them for years, and then poof , their gone.

idk if any of you have them but i thought this was an apropriate place to post a cheap solution to a big problem
 
Thankfully I have yet to have ANY pest problems. I turn my topsoil daily to get fresh oxygen into the soil and rid of any chances of mold or bugs. I will have some pics up in a few..she is growing like crazy! 3days after topping and she already working on 5 fingered leaves o.0...still no signs of sex though but hoping and praying its a little girl:)
 
Well, as promised...here are some more beauty shots:)
