just pretty baked and happy to be smoking on this good.
Yes i live in Texas but i got that medical! Was down in cali last week for a motocross race and got some Mars Og(really good),Grim dog(really good), Maui super dawg(which im blowing on now), agent orange(alright), some Goo, and Heahband. All really good. ohh and I brought some "meda milk" soooooo good.
I started on my first indoor grow just a few days ago with a pack of Jilly Bean seeds. Hope they are dank. Just made a little grow box with cfl's. Planted them 3 days ago. one is pretty nice already. others are about to pop outta the soil. heres some pics......

what im smokin on. All my buddies here in Texas are so jealous LOL.


Little set up so far. More to be done. First grow.

It appears your using 26watt CFL's, between 5 plants, that isn't going to go over well after the first few weeks. I don't even think you'll get yield from that, too many plants to little wattage. I would recommend you go to Home Depot & spend $8.95 per light, they have 150watt CFL's, you can eliminate all the lights you have now, which probably add up to about 250watts total between the 5 lights & add those 150's in there & get 750watts. I'm not even sure if the 750watts would be enough for 5 plants, I did 2 plants under 750watts of CFL on my first indoor grow & I yielded about 4 oz from each plant, they were lanky & weak looking. So I'd imagine less power [as I can see from yours] & more plants [by 3] you'll be lucky to yield an ounce from each plant, if they even make it to that stage.

Just something to think about. I'm not sure if you already planned to change out the lights, but the deal is good for $8.95 per light, hell, your already paying around $6.00 for a 3-pack of 26watt CFL's, for an extra $2.00 you can have a massive 150watt CFL that does some serious damage. They come in blue/red also, I went with 2 blues & 3 reds for my grow because I knew I'd need the reds later in the process. But, your using 5 lights right now, you'd also be using less outlets, total cost for 5 150watt lights is about $50.00 & you already have the outlets to use so it's a good investment. You'll end up turning that $50.00 into an extra ounce per plant... I don't know where else your going to find an ounce for $50 so it sounds like a bomb investment if you ask me.

Good luck to you, the first indoor is always the hardest, but you also learn the most from it. You can only get better, I wish you the best of luck, it's a hard task to complete & takes a lot of patience, more power to you if you can pull it off. Let us know how it goes.

thanks man. yeah thats about what im gonna do. those lights are temporary(60watt actually) and just hangin and clipped on there for right now, like i said i just did this a few days ago.
but yeah i was gonna get some different lights. i know those wont do good for the whole time. they should be find when i get the fans installed.

There 60-watts? Is that what is labeled on the actual light itself or does it equal 60-watts & uses 20-something watts? They look awfully small for 60's that's why, I meant to say they look like 26-watters that equal out to 60-something watters. I don't know the exact equivalents, lol sorry about that. If they're 60-watts then that means they are equivalent to over 100, so you should actually be good for awhile with those. Good shit, keep us all posted or at least me!

Your going to need a buttload more lights for those things dude :lol:

try like 8x 26w MINUMUM for vegging 2-3 plants... WITH good reflection
