It’s the beginning of week 11 from seed and the plants look good. I didn’t water for 12 days and got some leaf damage but other than that the plants are still doing their thing. Still only feeding tap water, I had planned on giving them some MG bloom booster at some point but they still don’t seem to need any and they look like they will be done in about 3 to 4 weeks so we will see.
Day 74 from seed I decided to try and pollinate the plant with some old feminized pollen I had in the freezer for 6 months. It doesn’t look like it took so the pollen might no longer be viable but won’t know for sure for a couple weeks.
@Kaya666, that’s legit I did a grow with 60 watts once and got 45 grams dry lol. But I had to go even smaller this time lol. Thanks for checking it out
Nice one, micro is the way, I'm on 59 watts of LED in a box with a 1 sq ft footprint, I have four plants, every two weeks one comes down, one goes in, gives me 25 to 35 grams every two weeks :)
i used to run 12/12 from seed, but i have a tiny veg box with 4x 1lt pots so a plant will cycle 8 weeks through the veg box before flower- Fabric pots rock, i veg in 1 lt and flower in 3 lt, never root bound.
I only run a dairy on every 8th plant, too many to document.
Goodluck, Happy Smokes

@Marlin, it seems you missed the point of this grow. It was an experiment to see what can be done with the very least and items that are easily available to the masses.
@Efka710,thanks. I used 2 9 watt led bulbs I got from the dollar tree lol. I cut of the plastic tops of the bulbs to exposed the bare leds. So a total of 18 watts. I will put a picture of the lights I used on my next post.
This is awesome! I jut started my grow and I've been thinking all this expensive leds are all BS!
Of course you'll get better yields with better lightning but this diary right here is proof that all you need is the will to do it and it will work out just fine!
Thank you for sharing, stay green!
