Hey for some reason my grow journal disappeared some time last month, any way putting it back up now with lots of new picks.

This is my first grow and i am using 2x 30w cfls and 1 big 85w cfl

They started off in a home made grow box disguised as a rocket untill about 5 weeks of veg when they had to be moved in with a friend for 3 weeks and have been in my cupboard since then.

I have 2 fans in the cupboard to keep the air moving and the temps down.

I was a bit cautious of topping the plants as i know i don't have a huge amount of wattage i didnt want to stress them too much. but i have been using LST and a bit of supercropping to give it a nice SOG-ish canopy with 1 nice big cola (hopefully) on each plant growing up the back of the cupboard.

I am watering twice a week once with Formulex nutrients and once with black strap molasses.

Still pretty clueless on the strain but came from a nice bit of weed.

I have been growing at the same time as a mate in my house for the 3 weeks over Easter we had to move our plants half way across the country so we put them all together in a travel box and he looked after them for 2 weeks then i took them for 1 these pics are from 6th week of veg while they were still all together
