so this is my first grow ever and i have hit and miss on a cpl things that i know of and am probably posting a lil late in the grow but here it goes...
lets start with the specs:bag seed.
1. strain: to my knowledge ( wich otherwise means dealer says ) jedi, i believe its an og variety but then again theres so many og's who knows?
2. cfl grow lights: 1ea. 300w equivalent 68w cfl bulb 2700k, 4ea. 23w 2700k cfl bulbs, 2ea. 26w 6500k cfl bulbs, 2ea. 26w 5500k cfl bulbs.
3. grow medium: hyponex potting soil+10% dr. earth bat guano 10-3-1
4. pots: 2 12 inch black growing pots
5. grow area: 2.5'*2.5'*8' (indoor closet with white walls)
6. circulation: under door opening w/ 9" oscillating fan
7. nutes: dr. earth bat guano for veg 10-3-1 / miracle grow rose bud formula 18-24-16 for flowering
8. lights kept about 2-4" from tops of plants

so i know i messed up with the flood lights but i was broke and its wat i had thankfully they worked, my next mistake was not understanding the seasons i started my plants veggin with all 2700k bulbs and no 6500k oops lol once i realized wat i was doin about 8 weeks veggin with no real size at all i switched to two 6500k bulbs and two 5000k and still the big 2700k bulb bulbs for about 3 weeks wich ofcourse put my plants in shock but not for long vegged great for three weeks and now im back to the 2700k cfls and 3 weeks into flowering on a 12/12 cycle all in total 13 weeks 3 days

Re: 1st grow ever! jedi/cfl's

Just what i had available to use but the basic concept is that air and condensation will collect and travel down the straw into the soil directly to the roots, saw a cpl people do it wit pvc and such and figure the wirst that could happen is i have to water alot more, speaking of wich id like to use those self watering bulbs that u put in the soil does n e body know much about how they work or has n e one had success with them?
 
Re: 1st grow ever! jedi/cfl's

I never used the self watering bulbs but I read some reviews that they suck ass. A lot of people were complaining about them. Read some reviews online before you go out and buy this stuff.
 
Re: 1st grow ever! jedi/cfl's

Ya i figred as much i alrdy baught them tho they will be usefull one way or another they were only 2 dollars each for a pack of six at a local discount store
 
Re: 1st grow ever! jedi/cfl's

so heres an update with some pics i switched out two bulbs for two 5000k 23w cfl's and i took off the bottom couple branches of each plant to focus the growth on the top buds i downloaded an app for my iphone so some of the pics are better than previously but the last two came out weird cuz i had to adjust to catch all the light

and btw for any of you that are wondering id have to say from the reviews ive read/watched and judging from the smell and potency of the buds (lol dried and tried the bottom ones, wow) it is definately jedi og kush, smells like a pine tree grew lemmons and that tree mated with some bomb skunk and had this:yummy:...lol i know but im serious its amazing, i just hope it lives to the 41% thc rating. speaking of witch how do i figure that out on my own plant? n e one know???:hmmmm::nomo::scratchinghead:
