FIRST OF ALL MAJOR +REP FOR GROWING UNDER YOUR BED!!!Stealth Under the Bed LST Grow
Here we grow again! This grow, after much research here on R.I.U. I decided I was going to grow a small trained plant without topping her. This I believe is the best way to utilize the CFL lights and i had the perfect place, under my bed. The size of the grow space is 18x18x18 with the top, front and back walls covered using aluminum flashing as reflective material. There are also two fans being used for circulation and a cup of h2o for humidity.The lighting rig now consists of 8 total lights, 2 42 w 2700k cfls and 6 26w 2700k cfls.
The Vegetative period was 24days of 24/0 lighting. LST was practiced this whole stage. Her growth was slow during this time building girth to her stems more so then length. Lights were then changed out from 6500k to 2700k and the timer was set to 12/12 and thus began the flowering stage. The grow as of today is on day 64 of flowering. There was hardly any stretch which I attribute to the training. The first 40 days was nothing but an explosion of growth.Growth was slow until around day 54 when there was another burst and now i wait and watch her mature as she is on day 64 of flowering. I feel shes coming to her end because she is not needing watered as often...but enough with the background...onto the pics!!

would it happen to be this one??? iam really interested and you have really nice resultsI have no idea the strain..looks like some Indica strain ...I do know though that during vegetation she had a citric smell but now in flower she is real earthy smell.. if i could give smell a color I'd call it a blue smell
Please wait

Amazing grow! Absolutely awesome and a real inspiration to everyone out there wanting to give growing a try. You've proven what can be yielded with a few CFL's and a tiny space, and by the looks of it, seems like you should be rewarded with well over an ounce off that one. Check out my grow, Ive got an LST'd lady flowering nicely.

Hey That 5hit...thanks for the rep and liking the under bed idea. In fact thanx to all that checked out the grow and gave me some rep.
Heres a pic of the bed I found online...pretty much looks the same minus the big ass head board...it was originally a water bed, I just replaced it with a mattress... and also included is a diagram of the bed specs...I have mine set up ghetto...but if you had the time you could probably make it into a killer grow box.
The only real issue with it is heat when the doors are closed...but its not that bad ...never rises above 88 and the avg. temp. is 82...not bad considering theres 8 lights but you need to remember the whole underbed is an open space so tht helps with the temp. and air circulation.
