So soaked two wedding gilato at seven last night and when I just checked both had cracked and a nice white tap showin they was in prop 25c 12 hours have placed in root riot cubes and put back in prop soaked cubes and just gave them gentle squeeze as props heated il keep a eye on the cubes so they don’t dry out
Got 3 northern lights and 6 ak to pop these gilato will go flower in jan after I’ve taken cuttings and grown in a 80/80/180 tent with basic gear brought the whole setup 154 quid
Magnetic 250 hps cheap shade extractor and filter and two clip on fans so these babies will go ther and il use the setup for a few crops 3 maybe just replace bulb every crop and clean it might surprise me and last for years but even if I renew every year the gear it’s only 154 quid shit one o cover that plenty some
Peace

So hope everyone had good xmas I been concentrating on a few grows the past few days ones setup ready for some baby’s not sure what to run in ther yet but I got a few days to decide I’ve also changed my setup about abit only the flower room it gonna be all cfl I’m gonna get two more lumi shades same as veg one and put 300 watts in both ov them I’ve never flowered with cfl but figure il get far more lumens than the 250 hps with out the heat and il be able lower shades differently to run a plant every 4 and a half weeks if I get 2 oz ov decent bud from each il be a happy man
I can keep it more stealth been cfl and for some reason just feels right thing to do I want top shelf bud so keeping environment spot on is a must and with a hps in this space I think I’d be getting foxtails ect and just general heat problems ducting everywhere to try keep it cool it would be a nightmare been ther before and space was abit bigger then so all cfl box and there probs be duel bulbs maybe but I don’t know if I should just do the red what ya all think

Below the wedding gilato 48 hours ish old
And the ak47 are showing them selfs
The gilato look good after the biosis very lush
Ive moves them probs two inch from bulb as ent grown with a cfl for years so had abit ov stretch I just left em in tray not thinking bout havin a cfl in ther and yes they stretch a tad but not bad it’s mad it’s how I used to grow but I’m having to learn well remember shit again like I think last time I used cfl was before me kids were born and me oldest ten so wow ye long time

So today nothing much happening
Potted up the ak last night and fed biosis half a g per litre
Ther just sitting ther chilling
Once I have a mom in ther I will be only able to veg two at a time then but that’s cool as it’s all il need for a bit
Moved sprouts a little further away from light
Il use this distance for seedlings from now on as even tho it cfl it kicks out abit ov power I underestimated it
Peace

right So both aks and both weddin gilato have gone to ther homes two under a 250 at me one pals and others at another pals all setups are same as I’m using mine will be finished next Thursday would have had it finished today but don’t like these big CFLs I’m kinda gutted I gave me brightwing away now that light was sick so today I brought the smaller two tube 110 watt as the seedlings don’t like the cfl I got they seem ok but pale and a tiny dot on one I’m guessing abit ov light stress as they r close shit I used to put my 125 cfl near anuff on top so I’m done with it good riddens I can see ther be good for bigger plants but I need a light that’s a all rounder and i love the wings and itl give me nearly a foot ov head room added a t5 for seeds first week or until they true leafs are in view then under the brightwing could jus stick em strate under bright wing but the t5 need to be ther for prop so il use it to harden off ect
So I have two ak in rootriots I done yesterday should be up tomorrow or sun and a northern lights I put in a jiffy pellet just for a change as I had a few around and a ak and nl soaking
Il use best two for my tent probs both be ak as don’t wanna mix em up but who knows
Ahh and yesterday got a stardog cutting off a mate now he don’t care a lot like he should for his plants and u can tell it’s pale and red stem lacking pretty much everything so I gave feed rhizo and start and sprayed with Nitrozyme looks less pale today and not droopy like I got her
And il be flowering in six litre pots two plants
Monday new light will be here
