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!!
