Stealth Dresser Grow (CFL)

So, this will be a stealth dresser grow

I have made a trip to lowes, and got 3, 40w (3000k)is this full spec.??? or is that 5k.. each has 2600L, 7800L all together.

The dimensions are 1'5"L x 1'3"W x 11"h

I will be growing them until it is far left to far right, and the second-branches will grow, since they are exposed to the light, all pinned down to the dirt. The plant will right itself, and be growing upwards, once again. Basically, the plant will really be like.. 1-2' in height, just horizontal.

When it ends at the far left of the pot, I will top all of the second-branches, then once they grow back vigorously, (growing back well) I will then switch the timer to 12 hours, and move on to flowering..

WHEN FLOWERING
There will be a regimen of molasses, every watering, instead of nutes @ flower. I have a ph tester, as well.
When the tops have plumped up, they will need to be tied back down to the pot, and exposed to more light, just away from the light, and eachother.

I plan to have a 2-3oz harvest, and if I had a scale, I would.. I can't experiment with weight, until I get one.. I will soon

XD

WHEN VEGING

I will tie the tops down to the dirt, and allow to grow, maybe top a couple times, depending on how fast growth is with these lights..

Try to at least have 6-7 main colas(but it will probably end up being 10-18..), considering the whole topping, and the plant just wanted to pop out new growth-n-whatnot.


Anyway, can't wait to start this whole thing, waiting on germinating 2 REALLY good bag-seed.. but I think it's a main strain, so maybe someone will identify it when she grows up??

11" High! Wow man, That'll be tight. could you use two drawers by removing the bottom of the one above it?

What sort of ventilation will you have?

Let's see some pics when you're all set up.

Best of luck!

This really is a stealth thing, mind you. Nobody else can even HEAR me opening that drawer. I have short time limits with everything, including pictures.

However, I will be taking pictures, but once in a while.. well.. hm, I dunno, I'm probably going to try and post the new growth.. which hopefully, there will be alot of.

I'm lining the wall of the hood(that will go OVER the plants(as to not let any of the high intense light out) with white paper, as to even BETTER reflect the light. I'll show pics of the light ON.. you'll be amazed, haha.

well, I'm going to have to make spaces in the litter-bottom for the clones.

Probably right between the lights, I'll take clones, put then in cups, and flower them once they root.(to determine sex, which to keep, which to kill)

This will be a great grow, just you watch.

For ventilation, I have a very strong, wired up computer fan. It keep the lights @ 62degrees f when on, the ambient temp is about 79-84. Not too shabby for the wattage, and how small the space is.

I'll try for tonight with the pics.

I'm hoping the one's sprout is above the ground when I look tonight. I have to check them after like.. 12:00pm, and only for a little bit. If I hear motion, it gets closed up.

I have solved the heating issue, as well. I turn them on for 18/6, as to let the bulbs cool down with the fan, at a rapid pace, and for the fan to cool them. Well, technically they get about 7-8 hours of darkness. I try to turn them off during the day, and back on during the night.

Just 2 for now, they haven't popped the surface yet, but I can see them down there a little.. by tomorrow night, at least the one on the right should be above the surface.

I thought that heat would be an issue, but I figured out why it was getting too hot..
I put white, computer paper in the hood, and I also have my cpu fan hooked up, attached to the hood, blowing on the lights.. however, I forgot to cut a hole for the fan.. haha.. figured that out last night.. good thing I did before they popped the surface..

Here are the pics.

The photoperiod is now 18/6, changed it today.

Also, I'm thinking of re-wording some of my methods.

Instead of topping to 4", I'm going to top (to make the plant)3", allow the shoots to grow back (I will be topping all of the branches once) then I will switch the lights to flower.. hopefully these lights will be alright for flowering too..?? (3000k)

Alright.. fuck this drawer.. I'm using the utility closet.

I re-designed the hood, with an IDEAL box.. it's about 1'4" high, and 1'6"w & l(box-shaped and all..)

I have one sprout popping out, and the other was a stillborn. So I'll probably be re-doing this whole grow lol.. sorry to get you amped, and then shit on your parade.

The new area will be easier to work in, and a hell of a lot more space.. but, don't go away, it'll still be a killer grow, don't worry.

I'll get pics up soon. Peace.
