    CFL Harvest

    Hi all, I wanted to share some photos of my CFL grow.

    I have 300 watts of CFL some 27k and some 65k.

    I have recently purchased an HLG 260w QB, and will be using this going forward.

    It is amazing to me that I could get this good of a harvest with cfls.

    This is Northern Lights from clones.

    It has been 77days since flipping to 12/12

    This is my setup.



    A 2x3x4 cabinet.






    Yes if you look close you can see some problems.

    I wrongly thought I could give nutes according to the feeding schedule for Fox Farms nutes.

    So nute lockout and calmag deficiency, from over feeding.

    I flushed with plain ph water, and stopped the nutes.

    Didn't fully recover, but still a pretty good harvest.





    This is the biggest colas I have grown.



    Can't wait to see what the QB is going to give me.

    I'll post a few more pics tomorrow after I finish my harvest.

    Are you sure the problem was over feeding? I’ve used FF for a few years following the feeding chart with no problems. The label on the bottle says to use too much though. Also there was a problem with one of the bottles listing tbs where it should have been tsp.

      That was my bad, I know I should have used FF at 1/2 strength.
      My first two grows in this setup went well (not this big)
      Really dark leafs "clawing"

          Whew. So there’s a good side to this 😂

          On the other hand, if after all these yrs I could learn the PUT IT BACK WHERE IT BELONGS, it would cure 50% of the problem

        Final count from last CFL Harvest


        After drying on rack for 14 days.

        Final trim and placing in jars.





        As you may notice I didn't manicure these as I only use for edibles.

        Then I put into pint jars.





        Total weight after 14 days drying just a smidge under 5 oz total.

        This is a personal best for me on an indoor grow.

        As you can see I am using the "integra" boost humidity packs.

        The only thing I could find locally was 8 g packs.

        Is this going to give me problems since I am using pint jars?

        Very pleased with my outcome.

          I think that's great I've seen several folks who only use CFL like you did and they have very good harvests. I would be proud of that grow for sure. And NL was a grow I did outdoors few years back one of my better outdoor grows over 2lbs on 4 plants I was thrilled, course others who grow " big " 1-2lb plants may not think it's all that great but we were happy for a whole year. What strains do you prefer Cannacaps4U2

          SoOrbudgal where are you located?
          I am in the Medford area.
          Thanks for the comments.
          I have spent the past year growing Northern Lights
          Both indoor and outdoor.
          Hopefully I can get some purple urkle, and I want a CBD heavy indica.
          I have also thought about grandaddy purple.
