hey all!!! here is some more pics of my sea of green as of today...hope you like the plant porn!

well i have switched my girls from 18/6 to 12/12 last night and day begins day 1. here is a few pics to show how tall they are, about a foot and a half. i flushed the soil to unlock any salt build up on wednesday, so ill begin feeding FF Tiger Bloom now along with the FF Big Bloom untill a week before havest.




here is the oldest of the batch, as you can tell its the only one that was pinched once and now has two big heads and 3 other littler heads, she is the bushiest of the batch.

well today is day 10 of flowering, i noticed the first signs of buds on day 7 and am very impressed with how fast it switched compared to last time... last time it took almost 2 weeks to switch. they are looking very healthy and very happy. i will post up new pics 2moro when light is on(off right now). so come back 2moro for more!

well here are some pics as promised, sorry that the hps makes the color look nothing like how they look, but theres nothing i can do. they seem to be doin realy well and cant wait to see how much better this set will be then the last cause i am going to stick with the routine im using now. im not getting very many responses so if anyone out there has questions or any comments, feel free. ill keep updating as much as i can if everyone who is following this would like me to. well here are the pics!

here is a shot of all 7. kinda hard to see them but you get the idea


this is the oldest of the 7, its been pinched once as you can tell(has 2 major heads). the one behind it is another plant even know it kinda looks like its another head of this one


here is one of 5 of them from the top view. 2 headed mother on the left, then 4 more around her


here is the other 2 from the top


and here is one more of all 7


thanks for checking in, feel free to post replys or ask a question.

Grow logs tend to be pretty quiet,... watch your view count more than the post count. It's Bud Porn!


Couple Q's,...

Your only running a single 400w HPS? (I ask because I'm thinking of setting up a temporary flower cabinet on 400w, How big is your area? )


Why no reflective?

yes i am only using one 400w in my flower room. its dimensions are 4.5'Deep x6.5'Wide x 8'Tall. i have them on a table that is 4'x6' and sits 2' off the ground so that the pots sit up higher in the warmer air at night, instead of sitting on the ground where the air is colder. and the only reason i dont have reflective is cause i havent got the money to spend, but will be getting mylar as soon as i can. thats why i keep my light as close as i can. i had used the 400w hps for this set of veg because i have the next 2 mother plants vegin slowly under 130w of cfl's. thanks for checkin them out btw and hope this answered it.

well update since last post is i lost one girl, my fan fell and crushed her all to hell. i fixed it tho so that it doesnt happen again. unfoturnately it wasnt the shortest girl, it was one of the taller ones but oh well, i still have six still going strong and looking great. well here is a few pics i just took after watering this morning.

They look great, have any idea how much your gonna harvest? Early Projections maybe?

well i cant realy estimate that well lol...my last harvest was with no nutes during flowering and even worse soil. now i have better soil, and using FF nutes. i also harvested a week early so that i could get them out of there and on to this batch. im hoping for around 1/2oz a plant with these 6 plants. but i wont know until the time comes...

Seams like a reasonable expectancy, ill be stickin around till harvest hopefully you get closer to 20 g's a plant!

thanks man, ill keep er updated. ya 20gs would make me happier but ill be happy enough with whatever i get lol...i dream of an oz a plant(maybe if i had more light and let them get bigger) but i know thats not gona happen, as its not a high yielder, more a high thc content producer....but hey its fine by me lol....this shit is fuckin tastey and doesnt take but a small bowl, which is just how i like it

well today i got mylar and got it put up. im realy happy with it, it only cost me $5 to do my entire room. i never would have guessed that wal-mart sold mylar. i read someone saying go to the camping section of wal-mart and you would find mylar(emergency blankets), so thats exactly what i did and i was surprised and excited. here is a few photos i just took!

Keep in mind those emergency blankets tend to raise the temps a bitThats how i make it through the winter.

thanks for the tip, ya tomorow ill have to readjust the fan just hair im sure, but i got plenty of fan to drop the temps as low as in the 60s if i wanted it to. if it heats up any more with where the settings at now, ill turn the fan up a notch. ill update tomorow on the issue.

no problems with it heating up any with the new mylar. i have a big enough flowering room i guess for it to not raise the temp. plants are still looking very healthy, smelling like crazy(i love it) and tric production is still going nuts. cant wait for this harvest, hopefully this time i have plenty to last me.

Now I would never have thought about emergency blankets!! Amazing what growing goodies you can find at the local supermarket.....but wonder if they ever think that's what people might use it for?!

Thats sucks about losing one of your girls. We had a fluro fall on one of ours but thankfully she just got a little squashed and recovered very quickly. But it's gut-wrencing seeing one of them have something happen after you've spent so much time nurturing them.

Good luck with the rest of the ladies, they're growing into beauties!!

ya i know right, everyone kept asking me when i was gona get mylar, but i didnt have the money(or credit card) to order it online. thanks wal mart . i did wonder what the lady behind the counter would think, all i bought was two emergency blankets and some duct tape ....seriously who buys just that lol.
it sucked to see one of the girls die, but i have PLENTY between the indoor and the outdoor in the greenhouse , so losing one isnt bad! i still cut her up and got 2G's dried smoke that was still good(impressive for only 20 days into flowering).
ya ive had a floro fall on one once to, it sucked but it didnt faze my girl other then a lil bendage, no biggie tho

so i just got dyno neem oil, 100% to try and get rid of the thrips problem im having but i just want to make sure one thing? my girls are at exactly 4 weeks in now and in the thread i have under plant problems, one member says that i shouldnt spray if im 4 weeks in, is it correct or will i be ok to spray untill say the last week when i do the final flush? just want to verify with someone who sprays often since this is the first time ive ever had to spray my ladies with anything (new indica clones brought the thrips)
thanks guys i apreciate the help!
