Hi everyone. I've been lurking here about a year learning all that I can about various growing methods and finally decided to try my hand at it. Here's what I'm growing:
Bagseed (from very good but seeded pot)
156 watts of 2700k CFLs (for the whole grow) + window light when available (I live in the great plains so sunlight is abundant this time of year
Generic home depot soil
Generic home depot veg and flower nutes
Small closet with an oscillating fan, no odor control but that's no problem.
I germinated about 10 seeds and kept the best two females. They are both planted in one 5 gallon pot. I know this isn't ideal, but what happened was that I had two plants per pot at first, so that I could determine which plant was more vigorous to weed out weak plants. Well, two of them which were in the same pot together grew equally well and pretty much bigger than all the others. These had about 10 days of veg time before I switched to 12\12 cause I wanted to keep them small, and those 2 big plants in the same pot turned out female, so I disgarded the rest (3 were male and the rest were runty in comparison).
The sisters are now 42 days from sprouting and are on day 5 of flower (I'm going by when I started to see more than just two sets of pistils, which was on 4\20 actually haha). In addition to the 156 watts of CFL light they get, they also get 4-5 hours of direct sunlight through the windows. I can get away with this cause I've trained them to hell haha. They are only about 8-9 inches tall even at day 5 of flower.
Here's a picture I took today of the ladies basking in the sunlight. I put a penny on the edge of the pot for size comparison.
Here's another shot from the side to show the (totally successful!) LSTing I did. Again this is my first try so don't make fun, but I think I'm doing pretty well for a first timer (THANK you ICmag!) Haven't seen any signs of nute burn or insects or anything thus far:
Probably won't update this much until they are around day ~30 of flowering.
