Blynx's 1 sqft CFL cab & other CFL micro cabs

Terpene · Feb 25, 2015

Hey Blynx, I know you're big on the CFLs, but I found some fixtures you might like for your spaces:

IP65 / IP66 LED fixtures

Good to see you updating friend!

i'm sure you've answered this question in the 4 and a half years you have had this thread, but what size is that scrog cfl cab? and are these going to be moved over to the 11 x 11 for flower? i've gotta spend some time looking through your work. from the little i have seen so far it looks awesome.

The CFL scrog cab is about 20" wide by 12" deep by 30" tall. The cab is an old wall cabinet probably from the 1970s.

The plants started in here, will flower in here. I don't move plants between the CFL cabs.

Hello Blynkx girls are beautiful after training they want to vegetate for how long?

I usually veg for one to three weeks in my CFL cabs.

Thanks. I did see your thread with these fixtures. I've been thinking of making a new micro cab and will check these out for that.

These cut were pretty old and woody. They're taking their time throwing out new growth.

It's about time to start flowering.

Hi Blynx! A comparison between this cycle and previous Looks like they are developing more slowly. The burning leaves is some nutrient deficiency or reflection of all in the same pot? Following watching. Peace!

I started with some really old woody stemmed plants this round. When the plants are in that condition they take a while longer to get going than younger plants. It's why I'm vegging this round for three weeks.

Overall I expect the growth/yield to be slightly lower than if I had used younger plants this round.

Glad to see one of my favorite threads growing. I was wondering how you bend those old woody stems? I remember once you said you crushed one with pliers to make it bend, any other tricks?

Peace

This round I just bent the plants over and tied them down because they were so tall.
