Hi everyone,

I started this about 2months ago.

Light - 300 Giant CLF
Nuts - Ionic Silicone and silicone, Adanced nuts big bud and carb adder (adds weight), and a free thc boots the guy at grow shop gave me.
Soil - batmix.

Light is on 20 / 4 all the time.
1st 2 weeks just water then 1/4 strenth for 3 days then half for 3 days then full.

Im growing 2d different types of plant Auto and normal. Auto is samsara adrenaline shot and normal is nirvana ppp.

Sorry for the pics not being ordered good the auto it the one with the close ups the ppp's are being kept for cutting for friends.

I got 2 ounce dry from the auto so i will be doing 10 per month.

Let me know what ya think / advise an nuts etc.

and in a nut shell i think that Auto can produce under a clf.

Really glad its turned you both a little, I must say that most the info from peeps about growing autos is brill apart from one thing, if you choose the right strain you CAN get over 2 ounce per plant like I did growing with clf, the bulbs with reflectors are cheaper than hps and don't get really hot so only need smell control fan, cus they auto turn just leave ya light on 20 hours on 4 off the hole way through an cus of that you can constantly add new plants to ya room(I'm doin 10 per month). And as for water cus the cfl don't get red hot I was only watering every 2 days ish, if I went out at week end I would leave them up to 4 days. So if ya do the maths, 10 plants x average 1.5 ounce per plant = 15 ounce, I will plant 10 per month so 15 ounce per month, at £150 per ounce that's £2250 per month before taking my smoke pile. So tidy profit an some fat bud to smoke. Yes. An all off autoflowers an cfl.

Nice CFL setup. I'm using over 500 watts of CFL growing power with my own girls. Check out my grow journal if your interested.

U should get some nice tasty nugs from 500 watts, im adding another giant 300w cfl bulb in the next couple of weeks, my grow space is about 1.2m x 1.2 x 1.6 so 2 bulbs should be sweet. get them off ebay with reflector, cost of electricity according to my elec monitor is about £0.12 per day so about £3.60 per month per bulb. Cheap as chips. cant wait to see the rest of ya journal. thanks for your comments

I havnt started a grow journal yet, but I've started a thread, at the moment I'm using 2x125w 6400k, and 20w 2700k, I'm waiting for an extra 125w 6400k CFL to come through the post and I have 4 18w flo's waiting to be set up aswel for vegitation, and for flowering I have 3x250w 2700k CFL plus 4x40 2700k flo's, plus 4x40w 2700k CFL to be uplighters for under canopy. Its gonna be mean with around 1000w of CFL power! Im in the process of making a mammoth extractor! once again, absolutely lovely grow dude!
