so you are going with three plants in that little space?

prob coz the widow skunk isnt feminized and im gtin them from separate sites, ima do 2 churches and a trainwreck and when thier done i will do 5 widow skunk, sell 1 grow 4 and breed them, wot u think?

Not to sound like a jackass or anything, I wish you all the best, but I think maybe you're plans are a little too much for such a small space. Just germ 'em throw 'em in there for like a week or two on 20/4 then flower. You could end up with some nice budsicles. ;D

Ehh...it's possible, if you're really that worried. Still, I'd veg for atleast a few days.

well thnx for tellin me, about the nutes, i have some tomatoe stuff its 4-2-6 or i have miracle grow its 24-8-16, which 1 should i use, whe and how much, also how much yield do u think i could get after a few grows when i have more experience coz im goin 2 uni and i cant pay those prices for weed.

yeild is debateable, it all depends how you grow it, strain, lighting, stress and your experience, along with many other things, though sometimes you can get lucky. I wouldn't expect ounces here, but I'm sure you could get yourself a nice stash. As for nutes I'd stay away from MG, that's a chemical spill waiting to happen. Go for a trip to your local gardening department and pick up blooming nutes. Start off with no more than a quarter strength and work your way up from there.

thnx so basically go for the tomaeto nutes, my plan is 1 and a half weeks of 18/6 and then 12/12 for bout 8/9/10 weeks, im lookin to get more than 14 grams off of all 3 plants combined, any more than 14 and im a happy toker

 

[TheSchwarts]

That sounds good, thats the schedule I run my garden on. Though it wouldn`t hurt in your case to run 24h for a week then switch to 12/12.

 

[ukgrower2110]

oh yh ad how do i fim, ive looked everywhere but i still dont understand

 

[ukgrower2110]

im scared my lights might blow up lol

 

[TheSchwarts]

Lights won`t blow up, you`re rockin` with the cfls no. Heat isn`t an issue, specially if you got a fan in there too.
What kinda watts you got in there, how many bulbs exactly.

[ukgrower2110]

ive got 3 2700k bulbs and 1 6400k bulb, thats all i can rememba coz i threw the boxes away, if my roomates find out bout the grow i can say goodbye to whateva ive grown as we will have to"share" it, which means hueva falls asleep or pukes or cant hack anymore doesnt get any of it, were communists and a perfect example of where it succeds and where it fails and thanks for the guide by the way

 

[TheSchwarts]

No problem, hope it helps.
It should say the wattage on the base of the bulb.
Just remember, more watts means more bud. ;D

 

[ukgrower2110]

well thnx alot 4 the advice, just one last question, have you evr ordered from hash.co.uk i ordered 12 skunk widow seeds today for £9.45, they seem good wot u think, posted the cash today by the way.

 

[TheSchwarts]

Can't say, I haven't ever had to order seeds. I have multiple seedbanks around where I live that sell great seeds. I pay about 100bucks for 10 but they are definately worth it. Plus he will replace your seeds if there isn't a 70% ratio of females.
