Shweet that you got your new house sorted :) and a basement too! I'd be proper chuffed mate (underground parties lol)
Shame you won't be part of the CFL crew anymore lol but props man your weed's gonna be good with the HPS, trust me man it's different.

I got about 3 quarter Oz from my exo1 and expecting much more from exo2 in a few weeks. I make your guess right too at about 2oz :)
I haven't been updating really either... too much going on! LoL But I will try and get better updates for Exo2's harvest ;) She's getting ready to phatten up good at the mo.

we thats to be expected, with your new arrival.... but never fear while we're distracted.... the girls are still growing :-)

i would say that with hps you can shave a least a week off the finish times (at least a week)... and i have heard repeatedly that with hps the nuggs are "rock hard" ... the ones i'm getting from my cfls are fairly builky .... if hps add more weight then bring it on

and i'd say that 2... coming on 3 harvests with CFL .. should earn me a couple of stripes... or a CFL honour of some sorts ;-) ... and i've enjoyed the fruits of my laybours too :-)

who ever says CFL's are s**t... are wrong ... i'd say for limited space, budget, and low heat ..... they work wonders

i keep checking trichs on the critical jack ... not quite there yet

I've been keepin an eye on my trich's too. The clears mostly gone, cloudy dominates. Theres more amber every day, and now I'm noticing some blood red ones, not just the head, but the entire trich is blood red. She's probably getting chopped this weekend. May put it in the dark tomorrow or thursday and leave it til saturday.

The hairs have been receding pretty quick too, I don't think she's got a whole lot more to give.

I know trich's come in different colors occasionally, but could I be having a new problem with these crazy red crystals. There aren't too many but, they are quite easy to notice under the scope.

Hey guys, nice to hear everything coming along nicely! not been on here in ages. Life problems with ex's causing hassle!
Anyway moving on....
CFL's are amazing when I started! I love my 250w cfl for veg. Honestly my new mother Lemon skunk took off! Also got some new soil made in UK.... its organic.. Called Plant Magic. Black bag. Got recommended it from local store said yield increase (I mean I take everything with pinch of salt from shop guys!) and although I can't comment on yield the root growth is phenomenal! 2/3 weeks filled 11l pot in veg! now thats mad! Haven't experienced this before. Holds bit of water but not too bad. Best way to describe it is its like a soil/foamy/sponge and roots go crazy through it! Worth checking out.

Put her in the dark on Wednesday, gonna give it the chop tomorrow after work. Its gonna be a long 2 weeks, having to crack the jars and not being able to smoke any is like a swift kick to the ballz. Especially when I haven't had anything worth smoking in a month. 20$/gram here for bud that is dry, stem laden, and tastes like dirt. Seriously, the shit is so dry I can't even get a full hit off it because half of what I pack is frickin dust. I can't wait til my big harvest in May.

Tick tock, tick tock

hmmmmmmm ... well my last post and fairwell seems to have been deleted.... i personally thanked everyone who has helped and advised ... and also remarked how i consider this site to be the best on the net....

my comments about user bricktop still remain my opinion too... i find it unbelevable how such a disruptive person has not been bounced by now, instead the moderators would rather delete pages from my journal, and spare the blushes of an old fool

well that said this is my last post (take 2) please dont F**K with it ....
