My first CFL Closet Grow 15,500 Lumens

Dr.Chrondo

Hey guys, this is my first CFL grow, I got two bag seeds from some dank. Germinated August 8th and Sprouted out of the soil August 10th. So now the plants are 21 Days old (3 weeks). I am using Fox Farm Grow Big and Fox Farm Big Bloom Liquid Fertilizer's. Two 42 Watt 2700K Cfl's, two 23 Watt 6500K Cfl's, and one 5000K cfl. Im using a premium potting mix consisting of perlite, sphagnum peat moss, earthworm castings, and forest humus. Plants are under 24/0. I will probably be vegitating for another 7-8 days and then i will switch to 12/12.

Nice, short & bushy. It looks like they are off to a great start.

Dr.Chrondo

Yeah but to tell you the truth my friend, im starting to not like the idea of short and bushy. Im actually really disapointed that it's not bigger after three weeks (as in vertical growth it's only 4-5 inches talls)

I see what you mean Doc...those are some of the tightest nodes I have ever seen...how you gonna stretch 'em? weird its always been the other way around (how can I stop my plants from stretching?) who knew it could be too short and bushy...well you proved its possible

I would think just moving the light up would do it, but you could go temp differential between day and night, or change the spectrum, or the nutes....what's your plan?

Dr.Chrondo

I moved the lights up a few inches 2 days ago. I think it's showing some ups but to tell you the truth i look at my ladies every 5 minutes practically so i can't be for sure lol.
