Dazed Confucius. Nice journal bro, would love to see a pic of your cab, is it for stealth? You can grow some nice bud with CFL's in stealth cabs no worries! And yeah, pot size does have a big influence on plant size and yeild, for pretty much any plant, but it's not exclusive. I grew in a cab, with CFL in a 6ltr pot and pulled an ounce, could have been more if I knew what I was doing.
Grim and the dudes here got your back, much karma for your grow, looking forward to seeing your results! I'll post a pic of my setup tomorrow, its nothing professional, and doesn't have anything fancy.
Last edited: Aug 30, I was having a clear out and saw my CFL bulb packages they say 30 w lumens Gut is telling me i need 2 more and see what gets me more lumens per watt Im not to sure on Cfls man as i have never used them before.
Ive done a bit of research and found that the bulbs i have are fine but flowering will need extra bulbs for dark spots where the light is not being shown on and that flowering will be a bit slow. Rep points to all you friendly growers. My plant reached 5ft tall at harvest time, ALL TOPS except maybe three small bottom levels like 4 inches above soil that were under alot of shade grew well and each weighed between grams when dried..
Some lower tops still made excellent bud, they still pulled at least 5 gram dry cola's and branches were full of bud.. So to answer the last 2 questions, only the first maybe 3 or 4 small levels werent as big as the rest, tho still a nice smoke-great high, and the only ones that were id say popcorn bud branches were stuff all but again, only due to shading factors i had trouble with on last setup..
Hope this can help you abit, just try to make sure ur branches are getting sum light on em and not always shaded,tuck or tie sum fan leaves if have to, and ur girl will grow ok.. I want optimal light-levels, but not only for my cola at the top. I call bullshit - that'll NOT give optimal sized buds. So how far down the lumen-table make for medium and popcorn-buds only? That is what I want to avoid, and I want to harvest it all at once - not top part of plant first to let bottom grow.
You can help me please : 1. How many inches above the top of canopy is your W HPS? How many inches tall is your plant, from the very top down to pot-level? How many inches down your plant does your W HPS give you real good buds at harvest? At what height does buds only yield popcorn, if at all? Thanks, your experience with your W might help me a lot in my current situation.
OregonMist New Member. I've always used lumens per square foot of grow area produced nice yields for me. Uncle Butch New Member. I was born the year of the Rosenberg execution so i qualify to be here. I want to start by stating that when most people think of pot users they think of teenagers or college students.
I admit I had the same preconceived notion but if you want to see the face of marijuana users go to a dispensary. The majority of the ones i have seen are wellllll over You will see the same blue haired people that hold up the line at Krogers on Senior Citizen Day looking for their coupons.
Growing a few plants is a great hobby for seniors and can even supplement our social security checks. Most seniors are going to be puttering around in the garden anyway growing tomatoes or roses. Not only do we get free well, kinda free medical marijuana but just growing and caring for our plants is very therapeutic. I enjoy listening to Iron Butterfly or Hendrix when caring for my plants.
I even have a lava lamp. I am on my 4th grow. My 1st grow i had just tossed a few seeds in flower pot with some old dirt in it on the back deck. By accident it was the right time of year and i actually grew 5 little plants about a foot tall that yielded almost an ounce of free weed!
My next grow was at the bird bath with my zinnias and grew about 6 ounces of perfectly acceptable smoke. Growing outside has some negative aspects to it especially if you are growing in a state where it is not legal.
I strongly discourage outdoor grows in that situation. My 3rd grow was inside. I made just about every mistake possible and still harvested 17 ounces of mid grade weed. Maybe not medical grade but definitely as good as any mexican street weed. I am now 2 weeks into flowering of an indoor grow and I'm ready to offer some advice.
I buy clones from my dispensary. It saves about a month of growing over seeds and being some strains take longer then others to grow it's good information to have. If you are growing for your own use and maybe a little more i suggest 4 to 6 plants to start. You'll probably wind up getting all the different kinds of lights and hoods and nutriants and gauges at some point but for new growers you can get by with a couple of the large watt cfls from loews for the veg stage get the big ones, not the 3 way ones, they wont work.
Expect a 50 or 60 dollar hit to your power bill for 4 months or so. There is a very special feeling about growing your own stash. You will probably start to treat "your girls" as pets and you will want to nourish and care for them. I will hopefully have a hydro kit by then but still gonna stick with the cfl's because they are simple and can be spread around the plant which works well with lst.

All rights reserved. Its 10, lumens compared to of the other one. Its a mogul size light so you need to get a mogul socket and wire it to an extension cord, or at least thats the easiest way. Ok VW i looked at your suggestion. Im just wondering if it would be too much power fro such a small scale.
Perfect dude! If your just growing a couple go ! Here an older pic I have, I cant remember if its the or the there but either one can grow nice plants The big ones in the pics aren't lowryders but all the little ones are!
JPG File size: Those may work but I really dont care for that type.
