The Growing Styles and Logs Thread! Submit yours!

Hey guys, I thought this would be a great idea:
There is a TON of grow wisdom kicking around this forum but sometimes it is hard to find, as it's buried in peoples' grow logs.

So this thread is going to be a collection of links to logs that are excellent examples of a certain style of indoor growing.

These are the categories I can think of off the top of my head:

Perpetual harvest
Sea of Green (SOG)
Screen of Green (SCROG)

Soil (Classic)
Soil (Organic)
Soilless
Coco Fibre
Rockwool
Hydroton

Deep Water Culture (DWC)
Nutrient Flow Technique (NFT)
Ebb and Flow or Flood and Drain
Hybrid or modified hydroponic techniques

Aeroponic

Automatic Drip to Waste
Recirculating drip

Grow tent
CFL-Only micro/cabinet grow
Multi-room grow
Single-stage grow
Multi-room grow with breeding capability

Obviously your grow will fall into more than one of these categories, so specify which ones, and I'll get this thread all full of links!

A note, there are going to be lots of deletions in this thread as logs are added and I merge them with posts that have comparable grows.

No one be offended if I miss you at first! There's a TON of info to sift through, so post your log and I'll put it in the right category!!!

sounds fun. I think i will partake. So i am running a 400hp for vegging and 600 for flowering. i was spending 20 bucks a bag for fox farm soil but thanks to stinky i adopted the importance of humus.. So i picked a few bags of mushroom compost with humus. I mixed 50/50 with pro mix. Ferts are Fox Farms veg mix and tiger bloom for flowering. I have currently a nice size white widow along with three other bag seeds that were nice up under the 600.i have a few clones of each going under the 400. will post picks this evening.

Hey guys, what I'm trying to do on this thread is collect links to peoples' grow logs and sort them by style... so how I'm going to run this thread is, post up the link of your grow log and the style it is, and i will add it to the proper category and then delete that post... see what I'm saying?

My link's in the Sig.
Dual-stage. One Veg closet, One Flower. No pics of my Veg Room though.
Perpetual harvest is my aim. I just threw my first clone in the Flower(after 3-weeks Veg), it goes in with a girl that will be ready in 1 mo.
I do ScroG, Soil at the moment(moving to soiless with clones).
My nutes are organic and chemical.
I hope this conforms to your sticky

hey stinky U can put my thread in the scrog category. the pix on the last page R the best of em all.
and I just sampled 1 of the 6 days dryed and cured buds.
and it rocked my world like a mofo.


and I thinks my grow log is inspirational if nothing else. ya know.

because that scroged bush was a re-veged plant I had from befor. and it almost DIED on me 2 times after I re-veged it a few weeks.

AND on the 2ed time around she yielded a hell of a lot more colas than she did the first time.
and she flowered for 10 full weeks.

and by the time of harvest she was only a maxx of hight 6-7 inches above the top of the soil.

and she had 23-25 top colas that were about 3-4 inched long.
