this grow is using 3-42w cfl's and one 4' 40w fixture 2 bulbs. temp is 72-76 humidity[SIZE=+0] is 58 water every 4 day's. went in the pots oct 22, my 4x4 room is shared by a tomato plant that has 1 100w cfl on it and I rotate one of the plants it that light every 24 hr. also I have some wanabee clones that get sprayed about every 3 hours with plane water. since I was misting the clones. thought I would do the same for the plants and added nutes to feed I'm using M/G liquid 8-7-6 max is 20 drop per qt. for fert. I'm using 10 per atm. and in the mister 2 drops per and[/SIZE][SIZE=+0] then cut in half.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=+0]they seem to be doing good let me know what you think.[/SIZE]

here is the rest. do they look to be stretching? the two on the far left are clones I was hopeing to grow untill flower but I think I'm going to scrape the cfl's and go back to the 400w mh for about another foot of growth before flowering

Can or will 42w cfl's color index 2700 cause auto flower under 24 hour light? this grow has both seed plants and clones growing and all are starting to show sex. the first was a male posted earlier. I have never had any plants do this before. But this is the first time I tried the cfl's

if they were bag seed and the grower that sold there stash used autoflower seeds and they got males and females without pulling the males your gonna get seeds with the autoflower genes... I use cfl almost the same amount and only the autoflowering strain flowered with 24 hrs of light... Looks great... keep going just make sure you pull the males... if you want save some pollen and keep the strain alive


Cheers and looks awsome

looking good so far
i dont think that light would make it go into flower automatically
u have to change the light cycle 12/12
cause it imatates nature shorter daylight hours
good luck with them what kinda tree are they?

takes along time to reveg it seems. I put mine outside and it became mom to my last few grows. nothing great but got to clone and learn tons of stuff. my kid let it die at about 1.5 years old. we said screw it on to a better strain. I wanted one more round of clones but oh well.
