Sour Deezzle! CFL for Veg / HPS for flower.

Heres my veg room...and eventually my whole setup since we are gonna stick with a small SoG method in this box and completely fill it with buds. But here it is. Any questions or comments will be greatly appreciated...advice as well.

These plants are now 4 days old...pics taken last night. They were transplanted two days ago and are now just taking off again. I started them in small rockwool cubes after germing using the good ol' paper towel method (i get 99% germ. rate). The seeds were from some Sour Deez that i got from a buddy...both of the seeds that i found in the bottom of the bag sprouted and they they are. Anyone with any information of Sour Diesel strain and growing it will be appreciated as well.

The light setup is 3 26watt Daylight 6500k CFLS...rigged together myself . I know...its a clean job.

Stay Tuned folks because I have a couple of other grows I'm doing as well. I will be updating this frequently...keep posted!

cool i will be watching this thread ^^

hmm sweet ill watch

I\'m curious as to how big you will get 2 of them with 78 watts during veg. Some people go crazy with the amount of CFL light so I will be following to see the difference.

sounds like ya got this figured out.. make sure everything is spot on, ph, good quality nutes, dont be over zealous with them either..Sour is great stuff but can be hella fussy if the conditions arent right.

Gotta say, your Lighting would be more beneficial if you can get the CFLs to lay horizontally..You are wasting most of the light they emit, by having the helix vertical, esp as your reflector sides doesnt catch any of the light.

Good luck, you shouldnt be disappointed with the results if ya get it right

Did you really spell it as 'deezzle'?

HAHA yea....diesel i know how to spell i just like how it loooked!

Heres some pics of some Hawaiian bud we are growing at the moment. Enjoy!

grown with 150 Watt HPS!

yummmy how far along are they into flowering man?

they are probably 45-50 days into flowering...i think they still ahve a little while longer before they are done...

Okay....so heres an update...sorry no pics...pics comming tommorow for shure (my Aloha's are being cut!!!)

Hopefully someone here at RIU will add this to the other forum!

Hey...btw they are on day 6 now...

Anyways...i got the other 3 CFL 26 watters in the box...making that 6 total...for the two plants. One of them seems to have burned a lil and has yellow leaves but it growing great...the other one in the back is getting really big...and is growing nicely as well.

The soil is 1/2 top soil...good shit...and half peat moss/oganic shit from the hydro store. It getts adequate drainage with the added course perlite.

Nutes are not going to be added until maybe 3-4 weeks. The plan out of the three plants we will have going we will get at least 1 female. We will make this the mother...taking clones and starting a SoG in the box...using 150 watt hps mounted through a hold in the top (hopefully) and possiblly 10 26 watt CFL's....using 5 warm 2700k bults 1750 lumens a piece and 5 Daylight CFL's, with 6500k temp. and 1600 lumens a piece. The 150 watt HPS alone is 16,000 lumens....and with the others...that gives me 32750 total lumens. At roughly 5 sq. ft. this gives me 6550 lumes per sq/ ft. This should be adequate for a good number of small plants...since my height is limited to aprox 20"....the idea is to get as many small plants in as possible.

Im thinking about running a drip system for watering...since it will be hard to water reaching in such a small space. We have the whole closet to use but i wanna see if this method will work out as i planned...which i think it will.

If you are worried about heat...we have really big fan cooling off the HPS... which doesnt get hot at all. I got a nice big Computer fan sucking air out at a really high rate...i might add another. And one smaller fan sucking aire in from the drawer below.
Eventually their will be a fan mounted in the corner.

2 clones will be added every week...so this will give us 10 at the end of flowering...making us harvest 2 big ass buds every 2 weeks....seems like a freaking good idea to me no?

These ladies (hopefully) are gonna under the HPS with the other lights soon... i moving everything outta the box to help set it up for the SoG. We are revegging the Hawaiian and will be taking clones (They are getting cut tommorow!!!!) I finially got the hand help microscope from Radioshack for 10 bucks...whatta buy. Nasty freaking 60% amber crystals all over....so yummy! So those lights are gonna go from 12/12 which they are now...back to 18/6 ..and everything we have are going under it right now...the three babies and the revegger...and hopefully we will get some nasty clones.

Once they sprout...the process begins!!!!




Any ideas or suggestions please feel free to jump in!

not sprout...imma dumbass i meant root!
