Here's my lil side project I'm doing. Total of 110 watts with 4 2700k cfl's with 1750 lumens per bulb for a total of 7000k lumens. 2 exhaust fans no intake fan because I keep the cover off of it so don't need one. Doesn't have a carbon filter on it yet but will prob put one on in the week or so as it is smelling up my room now.

-(4)26w 2700k cfl's ~110w
-(2) pc exhaust fans
- Wrapped in Mylar
- Strain is Chocolope (clone)
- Using a homemade screen "SCROG"
- She's on day 39 of flower.

Girls are looking nice and frosty brother! Good job!

Thanks bro. It's been a fun lil grow. And yeah there frosty as hell. The pictures don't justify it enough. It looks like little diamonds all over or like I dusted them with sugar. My favorite part of the grow.

You should get some killer bud off those sexy ladies! Micro growing is entirely to much fun. Keep up the good work and be sure to give those sexy gals a nice long flush. :tiphat:

This Saturday will be week 6 so I might wait a few days after to start flushing. But I will be flushing her soon. Thanks for checking it out by the way.

Not much more than 14-15 grams. That seems to be an average amount u can pull from PC's. And that's coming from a 20-24" PC mine is only 14" tall. I wasn't expecting it to be much at all with only ~5" to work with. But it has turned out great. I have 6 really nice top colas and about a dozen more lil pop corn nugs. So over all im really happy with it. I can't wait to see what I pull from it.

If u wanna check it out from the beginning I'll post a link to the original website I posted at. I signed up here first but on my first forum I posted I wasn't really getting any feedback so I joined another website called "ROLL IT UP". I like that one a little better then this one but I figured I'd post here too.

You can expect more than you think :) I got 33 grams from my grow in a 22 (tall) x 20 (long) x 8 (wide) box. Had I trained her better I could have increased that yield, as wel as use a larger pot too. There is no reason you could not aim for almost an ounce in a smaller tower. Just train train train!

Yea she's up to about 3/4 strength on nutes. I feed her every other day. I tell u what man this CHOCOLOPE strain is a very easy strain to grow. This is the 3rd run I've done with it, all being clones and I rarely have any issues. They dont like to be fed till about 3 almost 4 weeks into veg. I didn't start feeding this one till about week 1.5 of flowering but I only veg'd her for 2 weeks.

Damn 33g that would be awesome. Tomorrow will be week 6 so I'll have 2.5-3 weeks till she's done. 25% of the weight will be added on in the last two weeks of flowering, so hopefully she will be swelling up in the next week.

Yeah man, the opportunity is really there. As long as you are maximizing the size of your pot to let those roots stretch, you increase your potential yield. If you top your plant a few times and create as many tops as possible, more yield. Here is a pic of my very first/only harvest I've had so far, and this would ALMOST fit in that 18" case. But it could have been shorter with different technique. I was playing more than anything not really sure over what I was doing. But next time, I'm confident I can increase my yield with the new info I've gathered along the way.

I could have made my canopy much more even, I could have used a larger/wider pot that uses more of the space and I could have started training much earlier to make sure that all of the lower stems met the top of the canopy at the same time. So my 33 gram yield I believe could have been closer to 37/38. So this in a space that's only 3-4" shorter, I believe the opportunity for something close to an ounce is very real.

Nice man looks real nice. My next run im'a custom build a pot that will fill the entire bottom of my case an will be about 5-6in tall. My PC case is 14" not 18" so I have to use every inch I can wisely. But next time I will start to train her immediately after I put her in. I waited to long on this one an the stem got to long so I could of saved spaced but not to worried about it. I have a 3x3x5.25ft tent with 12 plants in it. One is my old mother plant that grew out of control. She is over 3ft tall an prob 2.5ft around with 30-40 bud sites. She will be massive.
