Wats up people, today is day 29 of my grow with these autos. These girls ate blooming with beauty and with so many bud spots. Both plants have some burn but that's cause of the FFOF so I'm not worried. But there are a few dying leaves atvthe bottom of each plant sooo should I pluck them?? Anyway check out my girls n tell me how they look. Sorry for the crappy pics... my camera broke
Looking great! They definitely are flowering, and its ok to pluck those dying leaves. Just don't pull more than is needed. Autos need all the leaves they can get.
Nice keep up the good work. I plucked my dying leaves they seemed to fall right off with a slight tug.
[quote name='"igotplayed"']Nice, what is your lighting set up. Not sure you mentioned it, what nutes are u using.[/quote] Haven't used and nutes as of now, but I do have big bloom and tiger bloom, my lights, 2 26 Watt cfl for each plant .... in all 400 Watts.

hey quick question.....if u fuck up the night time and let in some light it can make your plant herm right??? but if i forgot to turn the lights off and they stayed on for a extra 24 hours wat happens??? will it herm cause i fucked up today and didn't turn then off.
[quote name='"HippieHighTimez"']26watt cfl =100 watts regular right???[/quote] No, go by actual wattage. A 26watt CFL is only a true 26w of light.

Just enter into whatever time it is for your plant, be it dark or day.

Let them go is what I have to say. My pistils are starting to turn orange and pink...I really hope I'm not wrong.

I hope the buds put on some weight soon
[quote name='"HippieHighTimez"']26watt cfl =100 watts regular right???[/quote] You need way for lights than that. Homedepot sale 65 actual watts / 2700k cfls for $13 each. Get a few of those and you girls will love you for it. Good luck with your girls.
what would be a good light choice for under 100 bucks. i plan on having 2 plants in a small grow tent
Cfl is the way to go dude, get 2 100watt cfl for like 20 bucks each and like 4 or 5 26 Watt cfl to go around the plant
Hi HippieHighTimez, since I am growing an autoflower, 60 day wonder, from Singleseed Centre, I was looking for others growing autoflowers and I caught a link to your thread. Very nice pictures, almost surreal in a way. I'm especially impressed with the growth you've experienced using only two 23 watt cfl's. If i could make a suggestion it would be to greatly increase your cfl wattage. As someone else wrote, use the real wattage, not the equivilent. I made a set up using a power strip, I would plug three recepticals in the power strip and then use these light sockets that are doubled up so i have 6 43 watt light bulbs on this strip and by using zip ties i added two more. I end up with 344 watts with this home made grow light. If you don't mind, I will post a photo of my setup tomorrow, as I know my description sucks. I've grown before, but the auto's are interesting, as the light schedule can remain constant. Good luck with your grow!!!
Good morning all you enlightened people, it's going to be another scorcher here in My God! It's Kansas!!! and it is only the first day of summer! Thank God for air conditioning. I wanted to show you my lights, especially my cfl's. [/ATTACH][/ATTACH] As you can see, even though it's a home made contraption, it delivers 360 watts of cfls to the plant. I have a 400 watt hps I couldn't use because it was too hot, so I came up with this. It too puts out some heat, but with the use of a fan, the temps stayed in the mid 80's. I have since solved my hps heat issue with a bake a round glass tube that sucks the heat out, so I am using that for my current grow, it's called a 60 day wonder, an autoflower, and it is about 10 days old. I posted pics on another thread, and GC wont let me post them again, So, if you are interested, I'll take a picture tomorrow. Enjoy your Grow!
