Slinger36s The Church CFL Journal (PICS!)

slinger36s said:

Sup guys i changed the lighting around again, added 2 more Y splitters to better distribute the light. trimmed a few leaves that just kept getting burnt tips from the lights, the Y splitter also helped keep leaf tips away from the bulbs. Besides that there are alot of hairs, 12 main tops and over 20 secondary tops (lower smaller branches), so heres the pictures!

Thanks man sorry to hear about your plant hopefully you can still harvest and get some herb off of it, maybe you will have some fire seeds that will hopefully be fem since your plant hermied on ya! final phase will be amazing im hoping, everything is looking above my expectations!

Things are looking stellar, dude! That is one healthy looking plant with a load of size! well done. i am a few weeks behind you with my cfl grow, hope to get good action like that from the lst treatment too! keep it up

I hope i get a good yield, i mean the plant is set up to be able to produce atleast 3 oz with it size, hoping for 5! i mean the church is supposed to yield 700 to 800 grams per meter squared, the plant is 17 1/2 inches tall and 16 inches wide which is a little less than half a meter tall and wide, so shouldnt i atleast get 300 grams in theory? i know cfls dont yield as much as HID but still!!!! cross your fingers and hope for good results!!! blah maybe ill just break down and get the 250 hps!!! but id really like to see what the cfls, ive had two successful yields with CFLS but they were just bagseed, not the store bought genetics.

The beginning of trich's starting to form today, very nice only been makin flowers for less than a week!!!

good 2hear. My honey-b started triching 2days ago

DAMN MAN thats a great lookin plant u got!keep up the good work keep me posted!

You've never heard of it Brick20, because it doesn't work. Marijuana plants genetically have a maximum they will yield no matter how many splices there are. 400 watts of cfls For One Plant!!!! The major perk of CFLs is low wattage, low hydro bill! Dude your setup is pimp but your expectation of 2 oz's from one plant probably wont happen. If it was the same amount of foliage but 4 smaller plants within different containers you would hit 2 oz's for sure. The added light will help this guy, but realistically you probably only need about 250 watts for that one plant. Like buddy suggested, use reflectors and you could get the same amount of bud, and use less light and money. If you really want more bud, grow 3 or four plants that size ( maybe a little smaller) and spread your CFL's more and use reflectors, by doing this, there will be no actually increasing your watts you could double your yield, and maybe more.

Thanks for the info bro but i yielded a little over two oz per plant off of my last cfl grow, im almost 1000% positive that im getting a hps before the end of this grow, this is just too good of a plant to not try and get a LARGE yield. i been searching everywhere and for some reason a 400hps(119$ plus 23.03$ shipping) is cheaper than a 250hps(149$ free shipping, either way i am getting a cool tube for 59.99 with free shipping. ebay is the shit!!!

ok so heres some pics of the tiny budlets already putting out trich's

You'll prolly be sitting on a couch somewhere with some friends and you all will be jonesing but you will be dead set on not harvesting yet then ding ding ding. lol

I LOVE YOU!!!

Your grow is looking VERY nice, sorry I caught it late but I started on page one and read it all. I am hoping that I will get my seeds soon so I can start my grown. You said that you mist your girlie, when do you mist, how often, and with just plain water?? How long did you veg for, 18/6 or 25/0 I didn't see any times for that?? What kind of food are you feeding her?? What soil is she in?? I think you should give her a name too, something of a holy nature I think would suit her, anyway I could get a close up of the LST, I wanna do that as well and I look and look at your pics but it is hard to tell which stems are trained on the older pics.

Thanks ahead for the answers and I will be subscribing, and will post daily to keep you and your girl company...


Keep up the GOOD work.

Ok some answers to your questions bro.

I vegged for six weeks, 24 hr light cycle,
its been sixteen days since i changed to 12/12, currently my timer is on 13 dark 11 light,

Im feeding her miracle gro bloom booster 15/30/15, i didnt not give her any nutes during veg stage, ordering Advanced Nutrients Bud Blood, Big Bud, and Carboload on friday, She is in Hyponix and Fox Farm Ocean soil, mixed 1/2 perlite.

Her name is Forte' my girl named her, she says its Italian for "Strength"

I mist whenever i want to haha, she loves high humidity areas because of her strain so i do it quite often, no regular schedule, with plain water,

Going to be adding molasses to her watering, same time as the Bud Blood, Big Bud and Carboload start to be fed,

As far as the lst goes, the only thing i can say is check out the pictures before, cant really explain what i did, just LST'ed branches as i saw fit, a little advice if you want big bushy plants, Top at the third set of leaves, and do it once the secondary growth is already growing. anyways, hope that answered your questions, feel free to ask anything else that pops into your mind,
my next grow is Strawberry Cough, whos name is Lindsey Lohans Fire Crotch haha, thanks to someone who posted in my journal too lazy to look back at their name.
Ive already topped her so i will be starting a new journal for her soon ok new post with pictures coming right up!
