    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    Probably not. I don't think it would hurt them because your bulbs are most likely full spectrum, but it won't make them grow very fast because the majority of light being produced is for stimulating flowering in your plants. You want to be above 5500k for vegging, less than 4500k for flowering...

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    I had good circulation and my apartment never caught fire for the 3 months I had it running. Call it luck if you want to. I had a successful learning experience with no expenses because if you put weed in terms of money, I broke even and still have all my supplies. If you're careful in your...

    It didn't die, every story has to have an ending and this one is over. There will be another one eventually. I'm not gone for good, only temporarily my friend!

    After doing my whole grow start to finish, my advice is to read lots, instead of just asking a ton of questions that have already been answered a million times like most new growers do haha. After reading mine I'm sure you know what I mean. Do your homework, and ask smart questions, and plan...

    Yeah thanks man, that is the plan. I have it all in two paper bags in a relatively dark closet, but well ventilated enough that I won't need to worry about any mold or anything. I appreciate all the help along the way :D

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    Yesterday I moved out completely, and harvested my plant last, and trimmed quickly before I left, keeping all my scraps. I took a few pics of what I had left. Right now I don't have the growbox setup again, I'm not sure exactly where or when I'm going to have it up and running again, but I...

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    I don't know where you mean.. Which picture are you referring to? None of the styrofoam inside the box is discoloured or melted if you are wondering if heat was an issue. But heat like that would have killed my plant too.. Actually, on the inside of the top cooler there is a yellow stripe that...

    Tonight I was using tweezers and plucking away at a few fan leaves coming out from around the buds that were shading other things. I pulled probably 30 of these little fans, and then I scraped the tweezers off on a knife, and realized I had a little ball of dark brown hash. I heated up the...

    I have no idea what the black lines are in the second picture here.

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    I took more cd-player-lens pics to see where my trichs are at, and anything else microscopic that I could get focused on. I don't even know what a lot of what I'm looking at is. I know in the last 2 pics in the next post I tried like 10 times to get a decent shot, it's a couple reddish pistils...

    Also, since I still have until the 25th before chopping, I'm going to flood her tonight and give her a hint of molasses, and then let her use all of it for Friday, because she drank a whole gallon in the past 24 hours and the soil is dry again.

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    Haha alright. I trust you. But this part made me laugh: I can't say that I've ever done this because people don't sell it like that, but now since I grew my weed I have the option to do this if I want to lol. I will probably trim all her leaves off before I go, and then cut her when I'm done...

    Haha cool man. People just always emphasized having it upside down so much I didn't wanna break the rules, you know? :P But yeah ok. I'm sure I can find some paper bags around here somewhere.

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    I could hook it up in the backseat of my car with a power inverter from my cigarette lighter. But maybe a glowing box would look suspicious there lol. Realistically though, yes I will definitely wait until that last minute. Or maybe I could trim her while she's still alive and then chop'n'roll...

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    It's about a 4 hour drive, during my plant's lights-on time. Right square in the middle of it actually..lol. Maybe that isn't enough to have an impact on her, but I'm sure it's a gamble. Also I have nowhere to set up the box at home because my parents don't know I'm doing it and I'd rather they...

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    yeah a pizza box could sit right in the front seat with me and a cop could pull me over and not think anything of it lol. Anyway right now I gotta go get some things done, I will be back a bit later. Changed my mind on what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I'm living away from home in...

    Building single-plant growbox, I want your opinions!

    Dude that's such a good idea, and I can get a pizza box no problem. And I have screen so I may do that. And instead of hang them in a closet, all I really have to do is clean out my growbox and hang them in there, lights off and fan turned on with carbon filter. I could dry them without stinking...

    I don't really expect it to be a lot not, I wish I could have let her go longer.. Next time will be different. This time I have to cut it short due to life changes, I'm leaving and she can't come unless she's hidden away. We'll see what she yields though. I don't think I'll be disappointed by...

    August 13th was day 1 of flower. That means this thursday will be day 42. I know it could go longer but I'm not going to take it with me as a plant in a growbox and carry it out of my apartment building..
