thank... the one problem with this journal is that i dont have the lights on the shef to flower them and if i flowered them all at once everyone in my building would know i'm growing... so i'm going to flower a couple at a time(8-9) in my flowering room when space allows... so this journal wont exactly be sog

im lettin them get as big as the room will allow(which isn't that much bigger... my biggest blueberry is about 14" now but my flowering room is packed... i realized i fimmed some and topped others... anything around a foot i've topped/fimmed again to slow down growth and make them bushier. i don't plan on cutting anything though. i'm usin 8 42w cfls, a 250w mh and a 400w hps in my flowering with co2 tank/reg. it's 3.5 x 4.5'... it's pretty packed in there now and the way i've go it set up is so 1 plant i'm harvesting early next week which is enough space for some bb's the males i'll cut and any females that aren't in bottles i'll transplant them and reveg. after that, the next plant i've been flowering in the room will be ready to harvest 2 weeks after that and so on...

Hey bro that looks fucking great...I am curious what light you are using for flowers are you a cfl guy or cfl/hid.

thanks, i mentioned in a earlier post im using, correction, 11 42w cfls a 250w mh and a 400w hps... i feel like the plants get the best range of light this way, the cfls allow me to get light into the corners and below the taller foliage since i have plants flowering at different hieghts

 

[growman3666]

dang man i like what you got here good shit

 

[gotot]

its been 6 days since my last post. i took the tallest ones off of the shelf and placed about 9 in the flowering room. because one of my older plants will be done in 2 days i'm turning off my flowering room lights for those 2 which will jump start some of my BB's and there will be more room once i take the plant out... i'll inform you guys on the final count

 

[gotot]

so it's been a couple days and i'm still waiting for signs of sex.. the count is 13 plants

Damn son! that is a lot o' plants i'm not gonna lie! So what kind of expense did you end up putting out in total on the CFL's?? when i did get some they where like 15 a pop for the same as a 150w (home depot)? all i ended up using em for was seedlings b/c i'm not at my own place just yet. where to buy cheap cfls from a large chain.. that will get them through veg is what i'm looking for, i am also using a 400w hps to flower.
