Live Stoner Chat My first time growing AF

[Dr. Smooth]

Started a Speedy Ganja in puck, then to 10 inch pots under 150 w cfl (blue) kept 2 inches above for 2 weeks watering each week. At 3rd week I gave 2ml veg food and increased 2 ml until at 5 ml. At about 5 weeks it started budding so I started feeding also with flowering food (same increase) and added a 150 w cfl (yellow) and a week later added another 150 w cfl (yellow) on the side to give light to the bottom buds and I always rotate the plant each day 1/4 turn. I've got about 10 days left.

looking good there Dr. keep up the good work.

Cheers mate, I grew a ruteralis 10 years ago which turned out alright. This is my first attempt since so i've gotten lots of tips in between and since i started this. I'm really happy with the quality of the buds, but I think more light would get bigger bud. It's decent for low pressure system, but I'm eventually gonna upgrade to a cfl blaster.

What i really like about this system, though is that it doesn't create a lot of heat so I can hang it right above the buds and get tight nuggets. However, if I had more heat and light the plant would require more frequent feedings(more food) and would grow bigger buds. I may be wrong though, I'm just guessing at this stage. I've noticed that with more light and food that the leaves yellow quicker, but get bigger buds. Ima finish this one as is and just experiment I guess.

Wow looks very good Dr.
Question for you
1) Is that a pc fan? If so how did you hook it up?
Thanks

I like your set-up there, Doc... very nice work on the girl too. Welcome to AFN!

 

[Dr. Smooth]

Yup, 2 PC fans spliced into a 12 volt power adapter. It's on all the time and the lights are on 20 hour cycle.

 

[Dr. Smooth]

This is my set up. I also have my beer in there so they can feed off each others CO2 and Oxygen.

 

[realcarlos]

Thanks so both of your Pc fans are hooked up to the same adapter?
