First grow! CFL Closet Project - TroublexWW(Pro Picture Update 4/8)
    #381871 - 03/11/10 11:57 AM (14 years, 1 month ago)

Disclaimer : My friend uses my computer and posts a lot of bullshit on random websites, this is an act of his doing. Not mine. I don't even exist, nor do I know what "Marijuana" is, what is it?


Ok so I finally got my closet set up and got pots and all that. Still need temp meters and a fan, that will come next friday.

Currently I have 6, 27 watt CFL's on a strip, totaling 158 total watts (Which I know is not enough for three plants) which I will double or 2.5 by next friday.

Three AK47 x Diesel Autoflowering seeds are currently germinating, and I have some "plantable pots" ready for when they are ready to sprout roots.

Heres a few pictures of my closet for now




Didn't finish foiling the box before I took that last picture, thinking about just getting mylar instead of using foil. Foil will do for now.


***UPDATE*** 3/11/2010

Planted three seeds into Sphagnum Peat Moss and Worm Casting soil. Gave it a little watter and WHOO!! How long does it usually take to see little green action coming out of the soil?




***UPDATE*** 3/15
Five of my White Widow x Troublemaker seeds popped open this morning. Planted them in soil and watered. Lets see what happens!

***UPDATE*** 3/17
One ak47 seed and one Troublemaker x White Widow seed have finally popped out of the ground. I currently have three 26watt CFL's on 24/7. Is this bad? Or no?

***UPDATE*** 3/18
Two more seeds have sprouted. I am SO excited! Other two seeds have opened up their leaves as well. Made some humi domes for em. Can't wait to get back from work to see how they are doing :laugh:

***UPDATE***3/19
So I went to the hydro store today and bought some Mylar film even though I have seen a lot of people on here talking down about it. Lined my little box up with it and WOW! Looks amazing. All the sprouts are now at about 2 inches tall now. Also picked up a bottle of Grow Big and mixed 1/2 tsp/gallon and dunked all my seedlings (which are in jiffy pots) into it.

Also, none of my AK47xDiesel seeds ended up sprouting :[ Sorry Kapt...I didn't do good with them, but the TWxWW are doing fantastic!

***UPDATE***4/2
So I bought two big clones that are already in flowering stage. I definitely think I need to buy more lights for these pups....I think they are Super Lemon Haze perhaps? The dude said it was a lemon strain. Anyways, horrible quality cause i took them with my roommates phone. Also, two pictures of my two little baby plants.

Full Closet


Norman


Jerry


Another shot of my new big mommas


***UPDATE***4/9 PICS!

Both babies under the lights


Jerry


Norman


Planning on upping their dosage of nutrients from 1/2 tbsp to 3/4 tbsp/gal (Thanks Diesel) and transplanting them probably when they get to their 6-7 node. I can already see roots popping out of the holes in the bottom of the pot. I have them under 5 26w cfl's 24/7. They seem to like it.

Let me know what you think! Thanks

***UPDATE***4/16  1 month. 2 days
Huge picture update. Finally got my d40 out of pawn ;] Temperature is stable at around 74 degrees 24/7. Have the lights on 24/7 with a fan on inside the closet. To provide fresh air I open and close the doors every thirty minutes. Humidity is 40 percent. Not sure what the PH of my soil is because I keep forgetting to buy PH test strips. Umm...what else. Norman is hungry for some nutes, which he (hopefully, really, a she :wink: tomorrow. Now that I added the two 55watt bulbs I have a total of 266 watts. I will most likely add two more 55w bulbs in a couple weeks.
Oh....and Denise Richards is fuckin bangin!

First up...the lights. I just added those two massive 55w CFL's today. LOVIN IT!


Now for my babies.
Here is Jerry


Here is Norman


And here are the flowering plants that I took off a friends hands.


**UPDATE***May 1st - Day 46 of veg? I think? I think my plants should be bigger than this but oh well.

Taken on my phone, cause my camera is en route to washington





My LST Rigging






HEADIE PICTURE UPDATE! HIGH QUALITY. Update - 4/8/2010

Warning - I got mad arsty with the editing and the angles. Maybe some POTM noms noms? ;]

Looking forward to what you will do, since its kinda like my project, just with more plants. Good Luck Hopan!

One question, what's up with this "Disclaimer"? Are you serious or are you trying to remain "stealthy" on the Internet (which you pretty much already are)?

As for your current amount of light, that's plenty, especially if you haven't sprouted them yet.

Inverted told me in my journal that he used "I used (2) 42 watters and (4) 30 watters to veg these 5 plants, but I started with about 10 and culled the males" (Inverted 2010, All CFL...journal).

If you add up the watts, its like 204 watts, or about 20 watts per plant (when he had 10 plants growing at once). So, for baby seedlings, 158 watts for 3 is plenty, maybe even a little too much. But if you got the money to pay the bill, always go for more light. But from Inverted's experience, more is not always needed.

Anyway, looking forward to see these AK's Growing

Automatic AK-47s! Watch Out!

Yeah the disclaimer is meant to be confusing. If it confused you then its working hahahaha.

But yeah, I currently have five seeds soaking in a cup, and three seeds in paper towl on a plate inside of a bag.

I just want them to POP already! I am going to put some soil into these

And then I should poke a small hole in the soil and put the seed in there, then cover it back up with soil right?

Pretty much. But when I did mine, I buried my seed dry and sprouted it from within the soil. I buried mine about 1/2" in the soil, then covered it with soil.

I'm guessing it wouldn't be any different for pre-soaked seeds either. About 1/2" depth.

And when you plant them, don't forget to wrap some clear plastic sheeting over the pots and attach it to each of your pots outer edge with rubber bands. This will keep the humidity up, which seedlings love.

Hope that helps.

Ok so I could just plant the seeds dry and not have to wait for the Radicle to sprout out?!

Ok and heres another thing. I have some Sphagnum Peat Moss and Worm Castings soil. A friend of mine that used to grow said he never even heard of perlite and it would be fine for me to just mix up the soil and plant the seed into it.

Wow weird, I can't believe I've never heard that before! Where'd you learn that word?  even people in professional greenhouses doing research on plant genetics just call it the taproot :lol:  (For Eudicots of course... and sometimes monocots, but generally just out of laziness)

Wait, are you joking around Harry? You should know what that is, considering your extensive educational background.

If not, we all forget sometimes right? I had to look it up too, but the name did sound familiar...The first thing I thought was "Its radical dude!".

Here's what I found from this website:

Quote:

A radicle (8) (an embryonic root) is first to emerge when germination starts.




As for the "plant seeds dry" thing, I think he was refering to what I did, which was plant them in the soil dry, then soak the medium (in my case soil). There's many ways to germinate a seed, just do some searching if you wanna try something different than the classic "put seed in soil" procedure.

Wish the best for your Grow,

I know, I honestly couldn't fucking believe it either :rofl2:

I'm sure I've heard it somewhere along the line, but it's never in common usage so it must have just slipped my mind.

hopmanshrub- why are you turning the lights off for 6 hours? Do you have living plants right now? If it's just the seeds then you shouldn't even bother with turning the lights on in the first place.

So are you saying I should turn the lights off immediately until I see them sprout? And leave them off?

I mean, the light literally does nothing for them until they're above the soil surface so why waste the electricity? The only thing I could see it helping with is keeping soil temps nice and warm

Not 100 percent sure but the house heat has been left on 75-F for the past week.


And I know I should have a thermo in there, couldn't afford one at this point in time. I figured it would be ok until next week at least as long as the house temp doesn't undergo any serious changes

Question : Would it be more beneficial for my plants at an early stage if I just bought 6 more 27 watt CFL's or just two or three 42 watt CFL's"

OR! One of those 40 dollar big ass coil CFL things?

Ok so two seeds are sprouted above soil now. Running three 26w CFL's 24/7.

Is this too much light?


Waiting on 4 others to sprout, which should happen very soon, and this morning two more seeds popped open so I planted them in soil and watered.

Pretty trippy stuff!

Question about the seed soaking: So wait, you are using Big Bloom, a nutrient mix used for flowering, for soaking your seeds in? Where did you learn that trick? What's the benefit of having those nutrients inside the seed?

Well its for vegitative stages of growth. On the bottle it said 1/2 tsp per gallon for seedlings, which is the stage my babies are in right now. So I suppose by the time they are in full veg they will be growing super duper strong. When full veg comes around in a week or so, I am going to add one more half tsp to the gallon and start feeding them regular dosage of nutes.

SO FACKING STOKED! Dude I wish we could just visit each other and help out with each others shit hahaha. Same goes with everyone else on this website. I love this place!

Ok so for a while my plants were getting yellow and droopy and not looking like they were going to make it.

Well I finally got a fan setup to get some air flow in there and turned off two of the lights, also watered them with some Grow Big fertilized water (1/2 tsp) and in the passed three days since watering they are looking better! Still a little yellow and the tips on one plant look like they have been burned with a lighter or something.

Should I cut those tips off? I will have my camera back on friday will post pictures then.

I am going to try and post some pics soon for sure. They are growing so fucking fast!

One plant seems a little droopy though, again. Today is watering day...maybe I should leave that one alone for another day or two before I water?

I have a friend who wants to sell me one of his mature plants (only needs about two more weeks of 12/12 light he said) for twenty bucks. He said I could chop it right now and probably get an ounce.

If I did do this, would I be able to store my babies in a warm, dark closet for a couple weeks while I turn my lights to 12/12?

Why on earth would he want to sell you an ounce worth of weed on a live plant for only $20? That seems to me like he's being a major fucking sketch-ball. only 2 more weeks of work and he's got $400 worth of weed, why on earth would he be trying to get rid of it for so cheap?

He is moving out and has literally nowhere to put his plants. He has nothing he can do with them, so he is willing to sell me ONE of his plants for twenty bucks.

Idk what hes going to do with the other ones, probably just chop em up before they are done.

All of it? I have like....200 bucks on me right now but I need to buy two tickets to RX Bandits and a one way flight to denver, so I can't drop 100. If I could I would, that would be a major profit sink for me.

I bought two of them. They dont have an ounce on them already and they need probably 4-6 more weeks of flowering.

Fuckin stoked though, he said its a lemon strain....he wasn't sure exactly what it is though.

I have never seen a full size marijuana plant before gazing upon those beautiful girls....i was totally blown away!

The smell is AMAZING! Not too potent yet, but it smells of citrus. The trichs are forming pretty heavily around the budding points too.

I need to get my d40 out of pawn so I can take some quality photos hahaha.

no no no dude! Our roommate had a friend who was moving out of his house and had nothing to do with a few of his plants, so I bought a couple of them. They would have just gone to waste otherwise.

I will get some picks of MY little babies soon though, they are looking fantastic :]

I know, I'm just messing with ya! :awesome:

It would be impossible if your seedlings grow that fast, unless you own a time-machine (I sure don't).

Can't wait to see your babies: those count the most in this journal.

Now, I gotta snap some photos now myself.

Awesome photos man!

I* actually kinda of lost interest for 2 reason....1 you got some fully-grown ones from your friend (no sense watching those) and 2 you only post photos in the OP, which I thought for the longest time you just didn't update your journal photo.......now I know differently....

But nice photos man...so many! I really like those fish-eye ones...is that a special lens adapter?

And where did you get that killer mirror-like Mylar? I want some! Looks super efficient....:crazy:

And how did you put that water-mark on there? I'm guessing your a photographer, since those photos look unusually beautiful....

Look good thus far. :thumbup:

Well I am sorry I caused you to lose interest by not posting enough updates of MY plants! That will be changing dramatically now that I have my camera back. I bought the mylar for like...30 bucks at a local hydro store, shit is so cool. Kind of hard to work with though, crinkles really easy and shit.

And yes, I am a photographer :] I love photography so much! The fisheye photos are taken with a super wide angle macro attachment. I could have actually zoomed into the fisheye to make it full frame, but still gotten super close up shots...I just enjoy the distortion inside the circle :]

Keep checkin back! Norman and Jerry are going to start BLOWING up under those 55w bulbs. I have also upped their dosage of Grow Big.

I am a little worried though because I am going to be gone in Denver for five days, I just hope my brother doesn't completely ruin them.

Oh and that watermark is was just put in there with this program I had to acquire in an emergency effort to put those pictures up. I am not at home, at my moms, and I had to convert the images from .RAW image files to jpeg so I could upload, the converter program puts the watermark on there until you buy the full version hahaha.

yeah, I figure the same thing for my grow too....

In the beginning, Inverted and Harry were giving me lots of useful advice, then later, I don't hear from them, or anyone, so I guess I'm doing good, or my ONE plant is boring and uninteresting, so there's that too....

I try not to take it too personal....they are likely just doing something more important, like real life stuff...who knows.

Just try to think of how other people in the future will think when they see your journal. That's what makes me think doing all these updates are worth it. But when no ones comments at all, I start to think: "Why do I bother? No one's watching anyway.....". That's just how it goes around here: some are watching, but you don't know who, and very little comments. I think its mostly because people comment on the big ones, like Integra's or Harry's, or Inverted's...we are the small guys, so ours aren't as interesting (especially my one plant).

What can ya do? :shrug:

Been doing LST training on both plants. Holy cow....the results are very pleasing!

Cant wait to post more photos fore you guys. My chaos paper clip LST rigging is definitely laughable.

But efficient!

WHAZA!

Cool!

Glad you are doing LST....with paper clips! :lol: That's new. So, what plants are you doing them too? The cheater ones or the ones you actually grew?

I wish I did LST. I am doing a little right now, just for the budz, and its great. I use those fuzzy pipe cleaners....looks so cool. Can't wait to see your paper-clip craziness....

Are you going to screen the budz too? I sure hope so.

I'll be looking for those pics. :thumbs:

I have just been LST training my plants. The other plants are kind of just.....idk. I don't really pay attention to them too well hahaha.

On one plant I think I have like...6-7 paperclip LST's going on, and only three on another. But it is working VERY well! I could see my plants becoming something like Beetle's LST'd giant :laugh:

Ok so my plants need watering like every other day now, does this mean I should probably transplant them into a bigger pot?

Also, how should I go about transplanting? My plants are LST'd right now....so I'm going to have to un tie them and then do I just pull the plant from the main stalk gently out of the pot?

Do NOT pull the plant by the stalk.

Keep in mind that I'm new at this too but, I tend to transplant when the soil is on the dry side. This seems to help it stay together in one clump.

If you're using a plastic or otherwise "soft" pot, I suggest holding it in both hands and rolling it back and fourth between them, gently deforming the sides.

Then, turn the potted plant upside down, with one hand supporting the root ball so that it doesn't just come sliding out of the pot. The other hand is used to pull the pot away from the plant and/or to gently tap the bottom of the pot in order to release the plant.

Once the plant has been removed from the container, I gently ruffle up the bottom portion of the root ball and sometimes I lightly massage the sides of the root ball as well in order to agitate the roots which, I believe, stimulates a rapid growth and transition into the new soil.

Ok sweet man thank you very much for the advice! The pots I am using are plastic but are pretty rigid...would it be wise to use a small ball point hammer and knock the sides if I am not able to shmoosh the sides with my hands?

Looks like you have it under control, and I like the look of your plants for being grown under CFL's.  Good job, but the reason less people respond to your thread is because you are NOT putting a copy of each update at the end of the thread.  Put one on the front page like you have, but also put the update in a regular post so that people don't have to skip to the front to see updates and scroll forever just to find new pictures.  I honestly don't even take the time to post in peoples threads who operate like that, so maybe that's why you don't get many replies...?

Just a tip
