Man, i`m impressed about Your grow. When I saw Your thread first, I didn`t think it`s gonna work so well, but now I see - plants are very healthy ands look yammy with lots of hair.
Nice job!

Thanks for the encouraging words. I was skeptical at first too. I have just started feeding them nutes, so far so good.

Hey everyone more porn. I'd like to point out that the picture of the 2 colas side by side are Girl1 (left) Girl3 (the straggler) right. I have no idea why Girl3 all of a sudden got just as big as Girl1. All are treated equal.

Thanks for your reply Sgt and man i must say those are looking 10x better every day! Yea the reason i wanted to skimp out on having two seperate rooms is that i didn't think i had enough of each color temp to split em up but i came up on enough cash to buy some more so its all good now! I still think your op is sweet tho cuz it seems to be working so fast! :weed:

Wow... everyone is so discouraging these days about the fact that im using fluoros and cfls... my 4 plants are just now popping out of the pots but im hoping they work out as good as yours did. But I'm a little more encouraged about how my plants will turn out now...

+rep for a good fluoro grow so far and not listening to the bashers.

I am in the grow room right now, and have spent about an hour gently man handling them, observing everything close and taking pics....They are amazing, and although all the same strain.....and given equal everything....EACH has it own personality.
I re aranged the lights today to suit it's prospective growth for the next few days, tucking leaves, and setting LST stings. I think i have everything covered. all nodes within 1-3 inches. it's just a strangly aranged canopy of bud's on top. Maybe I'll post a pic in a few min.

The first little seedling just popped out... and mine is based on arrangement of cfls and fluoros, getting as much light to as many plants as I can with a tight budget. I'll post pix in a week and start a journal though.

hmm, interesting.. I've never tried growing 12/12 from seed.. It will be interesting to see what the yield and quality of the bud will be once you harvest... I do see some of the advantages in that list, like space, electricity cost, easy maintenance, etc BUT while it is true that environmental factors do play a part in plant sex, it is mostly determined by the genetics of the seed, so normally 50/50 chance depending on the variety; I am not aware of any scientific data showing that 12/12 photoperiod from germination increases the likelyhood of the plants turning female.
Also, I have a feeling that the 20-40 days from now until harvest is wishful thinking.. the plant must fully mature (which means alternating node/branch development) before the buds will mature and that takes at least 5 weeks for most strains.. so if they are a month old now, and estimating about 40 days for flowering, I would say that you probably have at least 5-6 weeks until harvest.
Yea, bagseed is fine and sometimes great to grow and smoke ; check out my experiment with bagseed -->

LOL
20-40 days in't long enough, but 5-6 weeks is? Isn't 5-6 weeks, like 35-42 days?

Thankyou. I appreciate the encouragement. Yea, this grow has spawned many ideas for the next grow which is already under way.
