the plan is to grow 4 mixed white dwarf plants and im hoping at least 2 of them will deliver the goods:bigjoint:. firstly im a little worried about co2 because my wardobe is away from a window but it has a fan in it for circulation. is there any easy way of producing a sufficient amount of co2 that can be put into the wardrobe? My plants are 2 days old and look good. 200 watt cfl veg lamp about 4 inches away from the babies.temp is at 27 degrees C with fan on. iv been watering with a spray every time the soil looks dry but iv heard this is a no no but plants seem to like it. ill try keep everyone updated. im looking to get atleast a nice dry ounce from each lady, what does people think?

CO2 in a closet grow is not usually that important. When you look at them and breath on them guess what, you blow CO2 on them. For a cheap method of CO2 I take a gallon milk jug, poke a pencil sized hole in the cap, fill half way with warm water, add 2 tbls of activated yeast (grocery store item used to make bread) add one-two cups of sugar, shake ( put finger over cap hole) and let it sit at about the same height as my plants. You'll get this brown foam on top of the water and that is the yeast working. When the little bubbles pop they release CO2 and come out the hole in the cap. My plants seemed to like it. I use it in veg only. Don't need it in flower. Don't really need it in veg either but if you want to play this is a cheap method. Peace!

Day 25 and they are showing bud! Your lights on 12/12 or 24/7? I know with lowrider the plant does care much. I here 18/6 or 20/4 is best but what do I know. Never grown one of those.

just got done with the white dwarfs about a month ago. if you need odor control I would get it now, they stink very bad around day 50 and up.

Its an autoflower strain...lights can be run 24/7...Growing 5 myself right now in a DWC kit I built...day 8. Damn if WD's don't grow some roots.

That's what I was wondering. I knew it was autoflowering but does it care if it gets 12/12 or 24/7 or some other variation? Cost of power may be one reason, heat in a small space may be another reason to adjust as needed. Just curious.

OK, I feel better now! LOL! I love the smell of ganja in the morning! Better than a bowl of Wheaties to start my day!

I'm kind of interested in Autoflower strains but I would think I would want an ebb and flow set up to do it right. I'm getting about 5-6 zips per grow and it matures every 8 weeks with a seperate grow and flower divided closet and I don;t think you can beat that production with autoflower but I could be wrong. I'm thinking of putting an experimental grow area together in the basement (probably a tent) this summer and maybe I'll try it then for a direct comparison. I'm following you to learn more!
