    CFL Closet Grow For Me And Wifey

    The lighting I had before was WRONG I figured out and is probably why he showed signs so early. I had done my math wrong (damn stoners!) and accidently had it going 16 on/8 off. This time I've got it set for 18/6 which from my research is what I should be doing. I am kinda glad Tom showed so...

    CFL Closet Grow For Me And Wifey

    Thanks for all the good tips as always Matt, glad to have someone like you following my grow J I used the paper towel method to pre germinate the seeds for a couple days and I only put a very light amount of soil on the tops of the seeds (just sprinkled some on top). Also ya, I was pretty...

    CFL Closet Grow For Me And Wifey

    Not to sure I want to use any tinfoil as I've seen it cause hotspots before. But I am going to run down and get two Large size collars since my small ones aren't big enough to reflect any light. Also I'm going to throw my heating pad under them for the night to see if that'll help any :)

    CFL Closet Grow For Me And Wifey

    I am actually working on putting the colars back on, but I have to cut them in half first. I couldn't have the full thing on with the Y adapter.

    CFL Closet Grow For Me And Wifey

    We're homeowners with rare visitors except for the occasional buddy stopping by to match bowls :) I'm not worried at all. I think the fact I started five seeds makes her think I'm starting a huge grow, plus it's that "time" for her so who knows lol

    CFL Closet Grow For Me And Wifey

    Thanks for that info man!! I'm not looking to spend and more money into this than what I already have and have to. Now the wife is all of a sudden paranoid that we're gonna get caught. Seriously? Not sure what route I'm going to be taking now. I'm growing at least one more that's for sure. If...
