ok, I've finally found the balls to start a grow journal
this grow is the product of a couple of frustrating failures
i knew nothing about growing a healthy marijuana plant
i started two bagseeds in 6inch pots and put them on a second story window sill, as it turned out i was living at my (now ex)girlfriend's
and her stepdad actually stole one of my plants (they were a secret but he found em) i had named them Shavo and El Jeffe, El Jeffe got stolen
i didnt know how to make a plant flower at the time and Shavo ended up dying in my closet under a single incandescant bulb
feeling like i failed, i then did alot of research (most of it here at 420)
armed with all my newly found knowledge i tried again
this time i went with a box instead of out in the open
i used an old wooden ammo crate measuring about 12"X12"X24"tall
i used two 3" cpu fans for intake/exaust
4X23w cfl's and a 70w HPS, but alas, it outgrew this
i retofitted an old toybox with the lights i had
and added a 3rd cpu fan, this plant i had named D.D.R.P.
because i had started it in a diet DR Pepper can ^_^
she was beautiful, just starting to sprout white hairs all over
then, due to unforseeable circumstances,i left it in someone else's care
just for a couple weeks, and she died from a combination of
heat, light burns, and heavy pruning ( no green thumb there, eh?)
so again i returned to 420 and hit the books with a vengance
the result this time, i built a full sized closet
36" wide 32" deep and 77" tall, a 4"cpu fan intake and
a 9"exaust fan, the same 70w HPS from before, 4 42w CFL's,
and 2 48" fluro fixtures(4X40w bulbs, 6500k) mounted vertically
