So, I´m giving it a go !!
I´ve had a couple of small plants, leftovers from a box-kinda-thing I did last year (my first ever indoor grow, I did a lot wrong, only a little right, still got me a little smoke and lots of xperience.

This winter has been way too cold way too long time, and the ambient temps in the room where the grow was, sometimes came to +- 0 C. !
Somehow, the "big" plants survived, I know they are females (Malawi GoldxHinduKush, really nice smoke).

I have now found a little cupboard, which I´m gonna give a go..
Nothing fancy, but still, I really like it...

I am in the progress of uploading pics, they´ll be there in a short while....
I know the "big" plants look awful, but that´ll get better as temps rise....

I only do this for my personal needs and don´t need huge yields, I´m kinda more going for a perpetual SOG-thing, with three-five strains, giving me a variety of smoke.....4ever.....
:laughing:

Stay tuned, I might need help from some of you experienced growers.
:thank you::thank you:

Thanx !
@ Yesum- Yeah, I have some Malawi Gold x Hindu Kush which I pollinated last year with outdoor Big Bud that started showing flowers (not pre- !)after 21 days (the 2 girls in front)I try to follow DrBudGreengenes´ metrhod, so I run with 180 W (125, 2x 20 and 1x 15) hardmounted CFL warm white in bloom, 9,45 hrs on/day.

Serious- thank you, looking forward to some smoke !
I´ve been having some annoying guests....#¤¤/%@ SPIDERMITES ! I bought some predator mites, they should be able to do the job !

Stealth-thanks 4 stopping by !
Yeah, reading DrBud´s SOG thread, he actually wrote "
(Quote DrBudG)
This set-up also only runs 9hours 45 min. of light per day
and LIGHTS OFF 1 day per week.

It is the difference between paying for .....
720 light hours per cycle at 12 hours on everyday for 60 days
570 light hours per cycle at 9.75 hours on for 52 days-"
:thinking:

I don´t switch off the lights though, need a digital timer for that.

Edit:I don´t switch off the lights *1 day per week* though, need a digital timer for that.

Update !

I´ve been having issues with mites, and now they´re gone...
I´ve been having severe issues with too low temps, that´s gone....
So, I was actually thinking I was cool, when I found a hermy Jahwi´s Joy !!!
The MF had maybe 4 male flowers embedded in the female flowers, never noticed the buggers !!!!
So, now I´ve got a lot of seeds in my grow !
I saved a few clones of the Papa, since I am alomst certain of the cause of the problem...

My vent duct is of the white, thin plastic kind and I am almost certain there has been a lightleak. The Sativa Jahwi´s Joy was the only plant tall enough to reach that leak, since almost all others plants are pure Indica...

Any opinions on whether I should hang on to these seeds ? I recon, since the male flowers were provoced by the leak, it isn´t genetic in J.J. (?)
All my plants being mainly Indica means I could get some stretch, something I really would apreciate.
These 3 are all started 12/12 from seed... I am so amazed about the two "twins"....!

Your plants look great!

Funny thing about reading these forums is that I always see people having trouble with LOW temps while I'm having the complete opposite of having to deal with HIGH temps. Blame it on the high daytime temps we get around here. Averaging 30-32C during the day. ):

Looking good Tatz! One quick tipp: People don't like to click, ie. clicking to get to your pictures. You should post them directly in your post and more people will stop by and give their feedback :) Just my 2c.

Well, I allready started 2 Pure Afghan and 2 Skunk #1, I´ll take a few pics later... I´ll also take a pic of the mthrfkr hermie that got most of my virgin ladies pregnant !

I took a little popcorn off the MGxHK mom I flower for a test smoke, it seems like it´s gonna take a few days more, then it´s *chop* ! Been flushing her for appr 10 days now, I´ll flush her one more time, then I´ll let her dry up before chopping.

This lady flowered at day 22, 12/12 from seed... I pollinated with OD Big Bud, on the bud with the tag. About two weeks later I find this Hermie Jahwi´s Joy, that pollinated (almost) every flowering bud in the cab !!

I think that, if it turned hermie due to light leakage, I can still use the seeds, but if it´s got hermie genes, I´d rather not use them seeds !
