I had to bring an outdoor grow indoors, for privacy reasons, I'm running a 180 watt CFL with 5000k spectrum, it's 2 60 watt cfl per plant, and I have a T8 18'' 5000k. I'm going two Purple Urkle clones from the same club but they look totally different one is a month old, the other I bought today...

First Purple Erkle month old...

Second Purple Erkle...

I would try to get one more light down there if possible. What is the temp in the box with the lights on. Why did you have to cut some of the leaves on one of the plants, and do you have the full spectrum ''k'' with the lights you are using?

It's in the low 80's with the lights are on, the leaves were getting burned from the lights two close so I cut them, it's 5000k...

If you dont have a ''cool'' spectrum cfl in there i would add one. If you dont have a ''warm'' cfl in there i would add one. When you buy them you can find cool and warm ones pretty much anywhere. If you have both, fantastic. You will notice a difference if you implement both of them into your grow in the case that you dont have both already.

I have one 6500k in there, but I will try to add another warm CFL in there too...

I changed my Natural Fluro with a Warm White

PE #1 is looking good, looks like she's starting to flower, I might just get another clone and set this these girls on 12/12, can you force seeds to 12/12 or do they have to be a certain height?
Purple Erkle #1 (she looks nice and short for this CFL grow)




Purple Erkle #2 (I'm gonna have to bend this one)

i like all the pics. those babies look healthy. if the box is a little over 18'', and the pots look to be atleast 8'', and the cfl's have to take up atleast 3'', that only leaves the babies 9" to grow. how much can you yield from a 9'' plant?

The show must grow on, I replanted all my plants in to 3 gallon pots or bigger, should be good...
And planted the clone in soil, it looks wilting because it was in a humidity dome, but she should live... (CFL and flour indoor grow)

Outdoor
this is the mother of the clone the big girl with the cage

Like some nice purple, had some nice organic flavor and smoked real nice, I made some BHO hash oil with it and it was like the amber in Jurassic Park that caught the mosquito. I'm waiting to try this outdoor PE and see how the flavor compares, the CFL and T5 one came out really dense like rocks, hope the outdoor fattens up...

My outdoors is comin along nicely, im gonna make a bit of BHO myself.

how late did you plant those outdoors, just wondering about size.

Mine are fucking monsters every yr, i think next yr im going for a smaller more managable grow.

Kinda like yours, you could easily cover one or two of those and force flower. I like the idea of that.

Here is link to my grow
