Hey first time grow in mini growbox with cfls generating about 3200 lumens and pc fans hooked up. Wondering whats up with this uber stunted plant. Been on 12/12 basically since seed. Its about 2 1/2 months old. P.S Not totally sure of genetics was really high when i planted it. I think its bagseed.
right now its just growing in normal potting soil but I just ordered some Fox farms ocean forest to transplant it Sent from my LG-LS720 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
You can tell it wants to grow but it needs a little help Sent from my LG-LS720 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Nute deficient definitely, get that food asap Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
I think you passed "a little help" a few miles back Jeesus, look at the color of the stem, leaves are almost white ?!1! But be careful with the nutes, do NOT start with full dosage at once, start like 1/4 of dosage on the bottle, work it up until nice green leaves are present, if they get real dark green it could be too much nutes.
I just transplanted it into a 50/50 mix of Fox Farm ocean forest and happy frog with a little bit of extra perlite. Pics to come Sent from my LG-LS720 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Sorry for the wait guys I was building a new grow box will post pics today Sent from my LG-LS720 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Some pics of the growbox. She's looking better already. got two exhausts on the back 120mm case fan and a laptop cooler i moded and there's an 80mm case fan for intake. Trying to get some negative pressure going on. cfls giving off about 5900 lumes more to come. all in all its a decent box considering i spent $0 on it.

also noticed fan leaves only have 3 nodes, weird genetics i guess. This plant is survivor i started it in a pc case grow box about 2 months ago it was looking great until the lights fell inside and killed all the plants, but this one.i then proceeded to neglect the fuck out of it up until like a month ago but its pullin through and looking like a female def. im starting 3 more right now i plan on leaving the box on timer on 12/12 forever. gonna do it from seed to keep them small and speed it up a bit. sorry about grammar smoking a blunt while typing this.
That box looks like a firetrap, yo. I'm in a closet with white walls, did me well last time, so I'm doing it again. No need for those fans, IMO. All I run is a box fan on low for 5 hrs a day. Sent from my DROID4 using Grasscity Forum mobile app

Before: keep in mind that it was 2 months old at this point. View attachment 1422734 2 weeks After: View attachment 1437395 View attachment 1437396 View attachment 1437397 Glad it pulled through right before it started to flower. Its definitely a female.
Interested in how you do. Subbed if you don't mind http://forum.grasscity.com/hydroponic-grow-journals/1288810-hydro-dwc-grow-journal.html
@[member="Skunkbred1"] the more the merrier all i really did was transplant to a half and half mix of fox farms ocean forest and happy frog with a little extra perlite. The plant was so puny at the time it was just starving for some nutes. so it exploded when it got them. @[member="mayhemmaster668"] Why are your lights so far away? And my box definitely stays below 80 degrees at all times and my fans are necessary to keep the heat down and make continues air flow to keep my stems strong. they're pc fans that run on phone charges use almost no energy relative to the rest of the house.
Sounds good I grow In hydro. So I like to see how they grow in soil and also different soil mixes. Check my journal out... Always good to learn more you know???? http://forum.grasscity.com/hydroponic-grow-journals/1288810-hydro-dwc-grow-journal.html
