Hello, and welcome to my thread
The reason i made this is to get some ideas or opinions on my growbox, im an absolute noob at this, so any criticism, comments advice, ideas, ANYTHING is welcome!
EDIT- I spent literally NO money what soever on this, all of my equipment i found snooping around the house, even the box is just a draw i pulled out of a old set of drawers haha
So this little ones almost 3 weeks-ish, under 2 14watt CFLs and 1 (Soon to be two, thats why the space) 24watt CFL 4100k, ofcourse i found around the house haha. Is this efficient?
Oh, and how close could i get the plant to these bulbs without burning the fela?
Ventilation is basic 2 PC fans, one exhaust, one intake, and chucked another in there blowing on her for a extra strong stem,
Odor Control- Fuck it, i love the smell
Nutes- The only one i posses at this moment is PowerFeed Fish Fertiliser, with 12% N, 1.4% PH, 7% Potasssium, and 3.08% Potassium humate. I mixed in 10mL (1/4 recommended) into a 1L Bottle of water, and watered her with it a few days ago, a few yellow spots appeared, but nothing i should be worried about i dont think, we'll see in couple of days aye haha
could anyone reccommend some nute brand names that are known to be sold in Australian retailers? (Melbourne)
As for the reflector, the base of it was a cardboard box i cut the top of, i then simply wrapped it up in some aluminum foil, cut some holes did some wiring and bam! It actually works very well, i could see the difference, the light is alot more concertrated and alot more bright than it was! hopefully she'll like that better
Im also planning to reduce the vertical growth as much as possible! I was planning on using LST and "Topping" but i still have my wohs, maybe its because a beginner and just worrying too much that ima do 1 thing wrong and screw it all up! Are there any other methods to keep down the vertical growth? or could those two methods combined be enough for such a small space?
I've seen some fairly decent grows inside a PC box, this drawer is almost double size in width of my pc case, and a good 5-7cms taller.
Oh, and could someone tell me how my plants going health/growth wise? for some reason i cant keep thinking shes growing, well different, and a bit slower than other plants i see in the journals, but i surpose as long as its green n still gettin bigger (slowly) she'll be fine, aye?
So anyway, heres some pictures.
@ 3 Weeks-ish, lets say day 18.
FEEDBACK WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED !
Thanks for your time,
