Not bad at all I just started my first auto grow as well, using a cfl and 1000w HPS and with our desert heat controlling the temps is crazy!
1000w! Your gonna have heat probe! Wow. How big your garden? I used to run a 400 HPS in 1m hobby garden. Fat buds. How much cfl you got? I'm running 4x125 in my current 1m tent. You just using them as fill in? Red spectrum?

My last grow (back in the day) I happened upon some 75 watt mh which I used to fill in, the resin on those babe's (only grew positronic superskunk back then). Not sure if it was the blue spectrum fill in or the extra 300 watts. Had to pack up then due to family commitments.

I'm running cfl's this time because of the heat issues with hid's, it's a loft grow so I knew heat would be an problem. I considered led's and then considered how hard my wife would smack me in the chops when I told how much they cost. Still, judging by the smell and look of the girls I may be in a position to negotiate an upgrade (yeah babe, it is better than that shit we normally buy and I can grow more, much much more! Here's how......).

I'm looking at upwards of 3/4 an oz per plant this time, gonna go bubbleponics ,add some extra cfls and add a supply fan to my current extract oscillating fan combo for the next grow and drop from 5 to 4 plants which would maybe double my yield. Still gonna run the sensi super skunk autos.

What strains you growing.

I don't know much about the lights the space is pretty good size check out the link I got underneath! lED so badly! But price is insane I got my light and ballast for about 200 all together so it wasn't a bad deal the cfl is pretty nice it's about 2800k, it's for the lil seedlings I'm starting off with DNA Genetics 60 Day Wonder as the first 4 plants them I'll be starting Delicious Seeds Norther Lights Blue auto in about 2-3 weeks then 2-3 weeks after I'll pop some g-13s Pineapple Express auto! Watch my thread it will all be on there!
 
Couple of pics for today.

The eldest is ripening up nicely, its getting a bit stinky when I open the tent and the buds are properly sticky when you handle them. Lots of sugar leaf, best get shopping for some butane.

Thanks RR.
To be fair I set the bar pretty low for myself on this one, really just wanted to try out autos as they seemed to fit the space I had.

As for those ovaries, you may want to cup them and cough just to check!
 
I started flushing the eldest girl today. Gonna give her a 2 week flush as I heard top max can taint the flavour of the flower.

That, my Friend, is called smart growing:thumbsup:

I love the 2 week flush, BTW. Too many folks rush through this most important step.

It ain't always about what you put in, sometimes what you take out.

I used organic feed and booster but, if I wanted to smoke molasses I'd go to a shisha bar!

Like the wife always says ' I ain't putting it my mouth unless it's been washed'.
