CFL Harvest

[Cannacaps4U2]

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"

Here is the rest of my harvest.

Ok so here is a picture of my CFL fixture.

Going from this:

Can't wait to see what I can do with the QB

First... you have a serious problem....that shop is so freaking clean
second... congratulations, beautiful job on the CFL’s and you’ve got the spectrum covered!!

Only the floor is clean LOL
Freshly swept from the harvest, you should see me write my name in the wall dust🧐

 

[Farmall]

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.
