Hi all, this is my first grow. I started it yesterday with 2 clones.

Clone on the left with the label stick is Purple Kush.

Clone on the right with the label stick is Cheese.

Both are confirmed females and purchased at a very reputable local club in Oakland.


Lighting for now--

2 CFL 26watt pointing directly over the purple.

1 CFL 26 watt over the cheese - (only one for now, will add more soon)


The plants are kept in the bathroom cabinet heat hasnt gotten over low 70s--but will add a small circulating fan soon as well.


Will probably add foil lining to the cabinet too. The black tape on the floor of the cabinet is covering some small light holes--nothing major.


This will be a simple grow, will just add a few more cfls, and using basic plant growing nutes through the grow.

Also looks like the club is into hacking up their plants, note the fan leaf that is cut on the purple kush

They will be on 24 hour lights until you guys can help me decide when to flower

clones look healthy but you should ditch the fixtures and go buy some clamp lights or sockets so you can hang the bulbs directly above and add more of them, and also be able to lower and raise the lights to achive maximium growth by keeping them with in inches of the plant otherwise you'll get lankyness between nodes, IMO you should use 18/6 for vegging sometime 24 is a little too much. Also what kind of soil are you using? ANd what kind of nutes will you be using?

dont use foil buy some mylar or use flat white paint.

Lights are adjustable, and are within inches of the plants.

I also put the plants into a 12/12 hour schedual, hopefully to put them into flowering.

Soil is an organic local soil "Summer winds organic potting soil"

For nutes the bottle is "Schultz plant grow 10-15-10"

again this is a very basic grow and I am not looking to get mega yields or anything like that. Notice the upgraded bulbs, and over an inch growth on both plants since the last pictures...

and CHEESE

why on earth would you start flowering them already?

Because I want them to finish fast. (yes yield will suffer, but i am just gettin my feet wet here)



UPDATED PICS. 20 days into the grow. Both are flowering nicely. Any guesses how many more weeks till they are done? Is a repotting necessary so late into it? Some roots are starting to shoot out the drain hole on the CHEESE plant.

Cheese is the light tan pot


Purple Kush in the dark one.

Check it out!

how long you planning on flowering for?.....im curious as to what your yield will be

Flower till the trichs are cloudy, no other choice right??????


UPDATE both plants have a nice smell to them, not strong at all, but healthy green smell when you get close to them. If the CHEESE (sativa) continues to grow taller I will have to tie her down!!!

This grow really shows the sharp contrast in size of sativa vs indica! Look at that CHEESE overshadow the Purple KUSH!!!


NOTE: This is a BAREBONES grow setup. NO fan, no CO2, no "vents" in the sleeping cab. Just some CFLs and dirt.

ALSO I did a nice upgrade from the little 23 watt CFLS to the HUGE 43 watters (close to 5000 lumens EACH!!)

how many days before you started flowering? @ 20 days they looked pretty good! yeah, yield will be small, but you seem to be dialing in your setup nicely.

March 17th the lights were turned to 12-12-- you can see on the post date of march 12 the plants were so tiny hehe.
