Boss's Poor Mans Grow

[Boss]

Well I finally decided to take the plunge. Maybe it will teach me somthing and someone else as well.

Here is what we looked like from the start.

I had 5 cfl's from 13w to 26 watt, everything was in plastic bags. I am on day 37 and just started planting the new seeds from a friend, they are all some kind of sativa i think.

The space I have is about 6' tall (But grow space is about 5'5") and about 5 feet by 5 feet. I have a computer fan pulling air in and 2 pulling air out through a home made carbon filter (I'll take pictures of it, but you cannot laugh :-) Anyway, here are some shots from about 20 days.







Then I went out and got some pots and more lights.

The set up is imaginative, clean and basic. The plants look healthy. I think you have the basics covered for a poor man's grow lol. Good luck! +10 reps

[Boss]

This is where I stand now.





Looks like I have 3 indica and a sativa.

This is the new batch of seeds that I just put in the dirt, however only three have actually sprouted.



Tonight when the kids are in bed I will take some photos of the other stuff and a shot of each plant.

have you made a decision as to what nutrients are going to be used? you gotta feed those ladies eventually

[Boss]

I'm looking all over, but it's winter here, and the wife won't let me use the credit card for this stuff over the internet :(

so far all I have is a 4-5-4 and some beads that I wont use ;-) I am gonna flower very soon and go to 12/12 so i better get somthing fast. I really wanna order some sea tea, I think that is a must, and some tiger bloom.

Oh, you can see I bought 6 splitters and added lights. I am still only running about 175 watts of actual power, and getting almost 10,000 lumens. As soon as I can I am putting up mylar.

[Boss]

I really have to decide soon on nutes, one of my plants is either purple by genetics, or it's missing calcium or somthing.

[FreakNature]

Lookin' good Boss. I was wondering when you were gonna expose yourself. lol

[PFlynn]

Sweet,sweet,and even more SWEET!!

[Boss]

You know I was gonna LST these, but.. I think they were an outside strain, because the stems are soooo fat. I'll have to take pictures.

[Dankdeadhead]

Looking good man. WHat kind of lights are those and where did you get them? They look like their working good.

[Boss]

CFLs that range from 26 watt to 47 watt and I got most of them from walmart. If you look, they sell the 100 watt full spectrums for 8 dollars for a 4 pack.. That's a deal. I have the 2700k spectrums ready for flowering.

[SmokeyMacPot]

Yeah!!! The plants are lookin like they are mighty happy! Very good job. It will be good to see how this turns out.

[PFlynn]

Hell yea I'd hit you with some+Rep for this,but it says I gotta spread the love first.O yea I think that avatar of Mcpot just burned a hole in my eye.

[Boss]

I just got new pics, then that will be it for a bit. As soon as I get them up, i'll post em. I think I am gonna have nute problems, so next week I'm gonna order what I have too, and we will see what happens.

BTW- Thanks :-)

[Mota]

Very interesting grow. I'll keep an eye on it!
I noticed that you are growing in buckets, I hope you drilled holes because the last thing you want is the water to accumulate and root rot..!
