Hi,
Welcome to my little spot here...I am doing a few different strains using cfl's as supplemental lighting in conjunction with a 1000W MH for veg and 1000W HPS for bloom. I ran the cfls in combination with my MH until I pulled the trigger on them and went to 12/12 using HPS....You can always check here for the latest numbers etc..
After a rough start here is where I am now..
Planted-12-10-08-12 hrs of hid and 12 hrs of CFL, then flowering using 12/12 hps started 1-16-09, now using cfls for clone/veg area in separate room.
By the numbers...updated 2-5-09
1. jock horror x 10-100% Germ-Nirvana-flowering-looking very healthy-vigorous growth-males=1 | females=8 # 1A | first calyx spotted 1-20-09!
2. haleys comet- x 0-did not germ-Flying Dutchman-only one out of ten germed—it was a dwarf. could not recommend
3. big bud x 1- 2 germed one survived but very vigorous-sensi seeds-pre flowering-male flowers found on 1-15-09! will make good pollen though....i will use this to make some new seeds..pulled it 1-20-09 but have 3 clones.
4. northern lights x big bud x 5- 100% germ- nirvana-flowering-looking very healthy-vigorous growth-2 females-see pics flowering 3 weeks.
5. white widow x 2-100% germ-nirvana-flowering-looking very healthy-vigorous growth | Females=1 | first calyx spotted 1-30-09!
6. Alaskan White Widow clone X Moroccan x Afghani(DENALI)- x 2-100% germ- very fast-flowering-looking very healthy-vigorous | females=2 | males=0 | first calyx 1-19-09 plant #6A | #6B female too.
7. Alaskan Blue Berry x 1-started 12-31-09-bag seed-veg-looking a little stunted but coming back-slow-growing faster now-see pics-is Hermi-pulled out.
8. Morocan x Afghani male X with Thai x Haze x Skunk female- x 2 (germed-1-6-9) flowering-1-18-9-seeds i made last year. Doing well but no flowers yet.
9. Thai x Haze x Skunk male X Moroccan x Afghani female- x 2 (germed 1-6-9) flowering-1-18-9-seeds i made last year-doin well but no flowers yet..
10. White Widow male X Moroccan x Afghani female- x 2 (germed 1-6-9) flowering-1-18-9-seeds i made last year- 10a is showing female flowers...watching 10b.
11. Skunk #1.5 X EARLY GIRL -(germed 1-6-9)-veg-seeds i made last year-looking good but no flowers yet.
Addedd about 15 new clones from 1A (Jock Horror) which is the best plant of the bunch for this strain. Still not as fast or as good looking as my DENALI (alaskan white widow x maroc afghani)
switched from HPS to MH on 02-03-9 due to too much noise from HPS ballast.
right now running 12/23w cfl's - 2 six packs...(100w equiv. ea), .also have 20 inch fan on timer....
temp around 80 deg
pro mix bx- 1 gal and larger
flowering began 1-16-09 approx..
will post updates periodically..
please feel free to comment..
