Hey dude great grow.. just read through the journal,
Ive just planted one of my big bang seeds.. any tips bro in advance bro? im planning on scroggin clones under 150-200w of CFL's
yea, i can tell you that its a really hungry strain. It loves to be fed plenty and grows like a beast under the right conditions. I am still on my first grow of this strain but so far its a keeper. very stable plant with great genetics skunk/NL/?? what else can you ask for? do you have a journal or something man? id like to watch another person grow this beautiful strain

my lights just flipped on and the soon to be buds look bigger than yesterday!! flowering is taking off on all the 3 big bangs. the mazar seems to be lagging behind, but it is starting to produce much more pistils so im confident she will start bulking up soon. also she was the last to show sex out of these 4. I got rid of my bagseed kush. i really wanted to keep it but it was the smallest plant and had no room. trying to fit in back in one night after tying down the big girls and couldnt get it to fit. i set it aside under a cfl for the 12 hrs then put it in a closet for 12 hours and tried to fit it in again last night but it didnt have a spot. my bigger gals now have a rectangular shape and occupy the whole cab. they are box shaped plants lol

Nice... now you get to relax a bit, must be tough having to always come up with something to get more space. Now... you can just concentrate on watching those buds grow

I know the feeling man... It´s great when you look the next day and you can see the change in the plants. Man, I´m really happy for you, cause it looks like you are going to have a fine harvest
.And hey dont worry about the little plant you had to toss, whats important is that you got your cab full of a good variety of plants. And man... Ive read that Mazar and its crosses are some of the strongest stuff around.

Nice... now you get to see all your hard work pay off
Any pics ?
heres some pics at your request!! i think im gonna have to upgrade and ditch the cab. The plants really want space to grow and that cab is just too limited for their size. The last pair i had in there was under cfls and had a great lolipop shape that wouldve been great for a sog. Anyway im still thinking how im gonna setup my closet for them and thinking of using clf's to get the light output to around 300w in a 1.5'x3' area. i should have 450w for a space that big, so im debating on whether to get another 150hps from econolights for $32. Im still undecided but by this weekend i will have a definite plan of action lol!! heres some pics for you boys!! the last pics was my last 2 girls under cfl's that was more like what i expected for this grow but i had to adapt hehe

Yeah Mr. Bitti , from that first pic you can see that there isnt much space. I´m voting you expand a little
.Also if you dont want to go the HPS route you can always just go to the store and buy a couple more CFL...

Good going B, I would put those girls that are flowering in the cab with your other 2 senoritas and definitely more wattage. If that area is square you could use a 400 there but the heat build up is going to be significant. Those girls are looking dank, the one on the left looks like a hard on but my mind is always in the gutter. I think even with 300W you're going to have heat issues with that size cab.

the cab is gonna be useless, its too small!!! im going to expand to a closet i have that is 1.5'x3' in modifying it to be something like 1.5'x2' and i just ordered a 150hps with ballas from htg supply. so i will have 300w in a 2.5 square feet of space. that should be over 10k lumens per square feet, im going to be using my cooltube on the hps i already have, i am also gonna try t make a reflector for that hpw to keep the light aiming down. My hps from htg will have a reflector, and it will be my main light. Im still thinking how im gonna make a reflector for my old bulb, but i will try to have them both running. If it gets too hot with the two hps then i will switch to 150w of hpw and the rest on cfls. thanks for stopping by my growers!!

those are 2 different times!! the pic of 2 lolipops is from last year in the same cab. The first pics in my post above has 4 plants in that cab, they are just so packed in there you cant tell its more than 2. I am going to start working tomorrow on my closet and going to try to be in it by saturday night or sooner. my biggest concern is that i wont have intake/exhaust just fans blowing around and an open door. but im thinking it should be fine as long as my door is open. anyway ill try to get some pics of the new area in by tomorrow. anyone have any ideas for a DIY reflector?
) keep doing what your doing

Yeah.. as long as you keep the door open, you should be fine...
Good thing that you are getting more space, the plants will be happy
Sorry, don´t know about reflectors...

ok so i started working on the new grow area today, i got the walls lined with mylar, put the fan in its spot and also put a power strip in there. Im debating on switching over tomorrow, i need some type of reflection for my hps because the closet is 8' tall and its gonna loose alot of lumens like that. I have ordered a 150hps from htg supple mainly for the reflector but it was a good deal so i got the whole system for 83 bucks shipped. I want to get both the 150's in there but im worried about heat. I will have my current one still in the cooltube but im still wondering how im gonna make a reflector for it. Im not sure when they will be moved but for sure when my new hps arrives. Heres a few pics of the new grow area, not huge but just enough and as tall as i can go.
