Update showing how far off the lights are and a few buds. Don't mind the droopy leaves, she was in need of a watering... The buds are filling in nice and the lower buds are getting crystallized :)

An update from outdoors... My potted plant looks to be getting close. Probably another couple weeks.. Getting a nice frost to it. The sativa is still vegging away though so no idea on that one. The sativa is all droopy because we've gotten a lil too much rain lately.

Here's my indoors plant, budding is going nicely. I'd say a month or less to go, getting nice and crystallized






This one had a little crisp from the lights falling on it :(

CFL's are not overhead lighting bro, you need to surround the plants and keep them 1-3 inches away from the budsites. CFL have limited light penetration...if you want dense with cfl's then you gotta get them close, i pull a 1oz. and a half per plant with mine and they only get about 26-30 inches tall, 2-3 impressive colas per plant, some even get to be half ounce dry bongsmilie happy growing!!

I have most of them on top but a few on the sides as well. On my last grow I pulled about 2.5 oz dry off one plant one cola was around 23g, I was using the two big bulbs I have and 2-3 26 watters on the sides. I'm expecting between 2.5-4 out of this one hopefully.

Pulled a whole 2.5gs dry off the potted outdoor plant curing now... Just a tease though till my main lady comes to ripeness in a couple weeks

Getting close to the end on my triploid, also added in another couple lights a week or two ago. Gets my total wattage to around 410w. Check it out below! Also took off a couple lower branches a week or so ago to see where it's at, smoked great I'm sure it's nothing like what I'll see in another 2 weeks but it was promising. Thinking I'll probably flush tomorrow or maybe give it one last ferting in a couple days. Also worth noting that today when I went to pick up my pot it was as heavy as it normally is when I water it, yet the soil was all dry,crazy the kinda growth you can get overnight.

So my in ground plant had been having issues with aphids, I was going out there every few days and manually rubbing them off but the ants kept bringing in more so finally decided to spray it with some soapy water. Used about 2 teaspoons in a 800ml mister bottle set to the finest setting sprayed it in the am and now here the next day all the ants left and only a couple of aphids remained ( massive improvement over the swarms of ants and thousands of aphids I was seeing before...)

Yeah man. It's a bummer. But I had to pick myself and try again lol. I have some seedlings under CFLs right now. I will start a journal soon.
