My First (Real) CFL Grow

I started this feminized northern lights seed a few months ago, I just switched her into flowering around Christmas time. I was just wondering how much it looks like it can yield. The box has an inline fan sucking air out, I popped a PC fan inside too. Can I get an OZ off this sucker?IMAG0190.jpg IMAG0189.jpg IMAG0188.jpg IMAG0187.jpg IMAG0186.jpg IMAG0185.jpg IMAG0184.jpg IMAG0180.jpg

You should get that if all goes well. I would get more supplemental light in there. I used clamp style work light with a y adapter and two y adapters in that with out the reflector and use i think 23 watt bulbs. that should give you 4 bulbs in each work light. If you keep going as is id say an ounce of fluff. extra light will help with density of buds. I started the same way. Your grow looks very similar to my first grows. Good Luck!!! Happy Growing

With cfls keep as close to the plants as you can because of lumen loss at distance. Not to close dont burn but you should be able to get inch and a half away

2000w of cfls!Slow your roll with those cfls bro....I'm not ready to give up the throne of being cfls king....yet:lol:
Keep us updated on the upgrade.GL
 
Me and OP are buds and have identical setups. We both planted the same Norther Lights seeds and my grow is about 2 weeks ahead of GreenFever07's. I have a larger pot as you guys can see but we have the same bulbs. I'm hoping to yield over an OZ I hope that is not unrealistic. Definitely will consider side bulbs last time I just couldn't justify spending more money at the time on CFL after these two suckers (Veg and Flowering) cost me 150 bucks. Tell me what you guys think and what I could improve!

Thanks a lot!

2 month veg period /3-4 month flower 800 watts of cfl/ floranova bloom/roots organics soil produced 133g. I wanted more wattage. 700w of cfl or better with proper functioning and setup is all good. The object is to get as muc energy as possible into the plant for more production. Also you dont want to rotate or move your plants at NO TIME for the sake of the trichome potency and or production. So make sure set up right and cfls positioned properly. Very important not to interupt trichomes can burst. More would mean nothing. But I left a little info of my first grow which was not too long ago. But check out the "journal.
