They started off under a 125w CFL (you can see those pics in the link in my signiture) for about a month (including rooting time 7 days or so) after that i popped the 250w MH in their and they really started going! Their in 3 gallon containers and will be transplanted to 10 gallons once their in the greenhouse. This is actually my first winter in the area I've been tracking the temps for the last week with highs of 78 and lows of 40, I'm pretty sure it hangs around there for the next couple months occasionally getting close to freezing in the wee hours of the morning. So we'll see how this winter one turns out!

Yup same ones plus a few new ones, the four phenos of my OGP X Mendo Purps (Miami Trash, Substance D, Fat Man, and Puta Cuba) plus two phenos i haven't tried yet (indignica, and starksy and hutch redux) as well as blue dreams, J1, Bubblegum kush, Cotton Candy, Trainwreck, and Chocolope! very excited, thanks for the good wishes!

Looking great D. What's your latitude if you don't mind me asking?

I have a small winter greenhouse project going right now as well. The temps where I live are fluctuating a lot these days, so my greenhouse sees everything from 46 to 83 F, but I don't expect it to drop below 32, especially in the GH. I started them at the end of August, and they're well into flowering now, didn't get that much veg time. They're just in small pots, no artificial lighting since seed, and I keep them on styrofoam for some night time insulation.

Good luck during the move. I'm interested in seeing how everything goes.
cheers

Stillgamblin - When I had them under the 125w CFL there was no need for heat as the ambient end of summer temps were ridiculous. But now that they're under the 250w MH There is no supplemental heating, they don't seem to mind, it gets down to about 50 degrees F in the tent

KUBAR - Yea my temps are vary similar to yours, I'm at 34 degrees north. It doesn't tend to get below freezing here all that often but it happens. I was thinking about putting some 2x4 s down to keep them off the ground and get air circulating all around the pot. I'm just waiting to take clones and have the construction guys finish the deck then it's time to begin the winter adventure! Do you have any winter greenhouse tips? this is my first late season run!

stillgamble · 11-02-2010, 04:17 AM
