thats what i thought too.

A lot of people hate on cfls but for stealth or small closet its one of the few ways to go. The thing that gets me is people COME INTO THE CFL FORUM and hate on cfls hahahaha.

true people love to hate on cfl's but thats just what i used the best way i have heard to go is to use cfl' for thier veg and hps's for thier flower but mine is flowering nicely and i have 6 23w cfl's to it. and truthfully i see the same results as using an hps.

 

[Batman407]

yea im liking the cfl's. only think im not liking is that it took 15 days of 12/12 to show a tiny hair, and still its really small. but i think thats cause i started 12/12 too early.

 

[sugaryDAVE]

yeah that could be why, how tall was she? cuz im thinking of flowering sooner also

 

[Batman407]

i dont remmeber how tall she was when i started, about this big. The 1st 2 pics are from about the time i started flower and the 2nd 2 pics are from today. Day 16.

wow you started pretty early and they did shoot up!! Holy cow, people say 2-3 times bigger, I def say that is closer to 3!

 

[mjh0817]

lol yeah. some strains do take longer to sex anyway. although it sux cause your flowering time will be longer but the buds should turn out nice...

sativa usaully x3 and indica x2 from veg to flower

sativa usaully x3 and indica x2 from veg to flower

thanks for clarifying that, that seems to be a good rule of thumb

 

[Batman407]

yeah it got pretty huge during 12/12, i can only imagine the size of it if i would have vegged for a few more weeks.

 

[sugaryDAVE]

do they smell at all yet??

 

[Fyfe]

whats that purple plany in your avvy ^^^^^^^^^^?

is that just light reflection? perhaps led's?

 

[sugaryDAVE]

its purple love plant hybrid

 

[sugaryDAVE]

just messin with you, its my plant with a camera effect, sorry i wish it was that color ha

 

[Fyfe]

i knew it wasnt a purple plant lol, you just dont get plants like that circulating.

i just wandered if it was maybe led or uv.

cheers for clearing up anyway.

 

[Batman407]

nah it still smells like a plant lol. Last night i fucked up. At about 6pm i closed my closet door and put the towel under it for 7pm when the lights go out. but im a dumbass and left the closet light on for 6 of the 12 dark hours. im gonna have to find another place to put my plant its too tall for where its at now.

 

[Batman407]

i moved the plant onto a little table instead of my dresser so its not so high up and into the lights. plants lookin good, i hate that i have to move by next wednesday, still havent found a new place.

has anyone here used cfl and harvested? i wanna know if someone has gotten a plant all the way to harvest with 6 cfls. if so what did you yield on 1 plant?

I started a similar post on that subject, but haven't gotten a lot of feedback. I am very jealous. I went with the high end CFL and spent about $140. I could have just hung 6 CFL's instead - I have a whole drawer of spare bulbs.

I might be too late to the party on nutes, but I have a bottle of the Schultz 10-15-10 formula (liquid, small bottle with eye dropper). It doesn't say veg formula, but it has a green label. Right next to it they had the exact same bottle of Schultz except it had an orange-ish label and said bloom formula. The numbers were different too, but I don't remember what it was.
