Fuck yeah bro those look like some sweet nugs!
I've kind of been wondering this the whole time you have been doing this log but how far do you keep your lights from the canopy? I never see any lights in your pics so I'm assuming you just move the plants/lights to take better pictures, but how far are they when they are normal? I'm just guessing but I think you keep your lights pretty close to get those results...
Thanks dude! The buds are a lot denser than I am use to or even expected. I hope the weight turns out where I want it!!!
As to your light question, I started them 6 inches away from my ladies and by the end of their life the lights were 8-12 inches away. The move was due to temps going up. I really can't keep them any closer in my small cab.
I'm going modify my light for my next grow. I'm going to replace my 42 watt CFLs with 84 watts CFLs. They started carrying them at my Local Big Box Store. I'll turn the fixture there in sideways, and build my own air cooled hood. My goal is to lower my temps while adding 200+ watts of CFL.
I know I said I wanted to get a 400 watt HID, but I had to drop some money for a carbon scrubber. The smell was getting out of hand. The homemade one was not cutting it anymore, so the light had to go on the back burner.

I know you wanted the HID, but man, if you're getting those results with 42w cfl's, I can't wait to see what happens when you double the wattage!
Those are some nice ass results, man! Can't wait for a final weight/smoke report!
-------------------- My best run so far

Like I said before, the scissor hash worked awesomely... I just made this ISO has overnight. This is half and I'm smoking the other half now. It was made with just the fan leaves with limited to no visible trichs. .2 grams
I will make some silkscreen hash in a day or two and post that. I expect 1.5 g

Some final pics from each plant
Final weight totals are
Small Plant - 16 grams Most bud sites plant - 25.6 Topped Plant - 25.1 Largest bud plant - 23.1
Total 89.8 grams Just over 3 ounces, which is the perfect amount for my wife and I until next harvest.
NO MORE BUYING WEED!
Smoke report I'm high as fuck! It hits fast and is body numbing. Couch lock for sure. Right now it has a light berry flavor, but there is some curing sill to be had...
Another grow COMPLETE.

very very nice, bro!! With 318 watts of CFL's, you got over a quarter of a gram per watt! That's pretty decent for CFL's, no?

Thanks dude!
I don't know how my results stand up to expected CFL yeilds, but I do know I reached my goal of 3-4 ounces. My ultimate goal in growing is just to supply myself so I never have to buy Mexican Brick weed again.
I have achieved that for at least another 2-3 months.
I'll add a few pics of my next grow.
Pic 1 This is my mother. I've taken 3 rounds of clones from her. I bought a 3-4 gallon square deck pot for her. She had been in a 1 gallon container for the last 3+ months with no problems. With all the clones I've taken, she is perfect to throw under a screen.
Pic 2 2 clones I threw in a 1.75 gallon pot. They are 3 weeks old from transplant to soil. Figure these will occupy the far end.
Pic 3 Got my air cooled hood/compartment built. I have replace 3 or the 42 watts, with 84 watt cfl's. I will replace the other 3 in about 3 weeks, about the same time I flower. The temps have dropped 3-4 degrees!!! I was worried about the summer, but now I'm cool.

Are the larger bulbs actually running cooler, or are the temps just cooler because you've got the air-cooling going on now? Even for someone who smokes multiple times daily CFLs really can supply you with all you can smoke.

I can't imagine that the bulbs are running cooler. I think the hood is bringing them down. I also can't forget I have 3 bulbs left to add. Amen to the more than enough. I'm smoking less than a gram a day and still get high as fuck.
