First Grow 5x Menage a' trois & 11 Speed Queens [Outdoor]

Hey guys... always up to something over here.
Created an improved budget lighting setup. Not as ghetto???

no explanation needed just pics.
well these are 2 x 13 watt 6500k fluorescent lights.









I have an important Question


Ok due to my ghetto rigged light system... i have 2 options:

#1 Take it off the plants every morning and put it back on at night so it doesnt fall apart in the sun and so the plants can get real sunlight.

#2 Bring the plants into my room (const temp cooler then outside) where they would not be disturbed by outside factors such as heat and bugs. I could leave the lights on 18/6 and i have that 12v cpu fan to keep things moving.

Which one would promote better growth on my plants?

And would my room contain a higher level of co2 then outside, thus increasing growth even more?


Thanks to anyone willing to answer my questions

hey twiszt
looks good. i'm interested because i scored a pack of MoT and then today got a 5 pack freebie with my cinnamon haze

so i have 15 MoT :woohoo:

chamez, you asked about the strain.

It's a MOD variety. 2 Godbud males to a table of Dreamweaver girls. = Dreamgoddess 100% indica
then a Arjan's Haze X Cinnamon (a Jack Herer pheno) male from another table snuck over a knocked up the same table.

so some could be Cinnamon Haze Dreamweaver. 50%-50% sat-ind

either way it's a good thing :yummy:

haha... yeah it is cardboard but it was lined with foil... i ditched that setup though. to many worries and no benefits.. it actually will grow faster outside in the sun for a lesser amt of time... silly me, just experimenting and seeing what i can do to help my babies.


those bugs only came around at night, attracted to the only light. Seems like most of them were harmless. if i got ladybugs, i doubt that they would stay put during the day.

But thanks for the replys simplyg33n07

now for the next question..
can anyone tell me what these new growth sites are?

ok if i look through a differant thread display mode i can see stuff...

well this is from this morning:


This is what i got from homedepot:




This is most recently tonight:








Do you guys think leaving this light on will help any?
Seems like my plants are growing slow... what do you guys think?

I recently used the ph meter and it always read 8, stuck it in a lemon and jumped down to 6.

I put it in a solution of ph down and water and jumped down the scale...
now when i stick it back into my water it will stay at 7-6ph..
idk if i broke it or what or maybe i just loosened it up. now idk if i should add ph down or not =/
