Yah one more after this one and all credit cards are paid off. I'm hoping to do it tonight as other wise I won't be able to do it till next Wed or Fri.

As for the drink http://www.purplekush.ca/

For the next grow I was gonna have a custom made 3x5 cabinet that looks like a tool/gun closet but will wait till the crop after the next one and will dig out an old SunHut LG 2.5x4.5 I have. I should be able to stick in 45 plants in it using the 3/4 gal pots I used last time. I have 65 spare Jammy's from an order for a friend so thinking of using those. They're poo weed but produce really really good.

I cut down the DM side and I got 59 oz wet with two huge ass buds with bud rot so would have been 60 oz wet. Gonna cut down the FN soon. If both are equal and OG dries like Diesel then I'm looking at 27 oz dry. Either way I'll be happy with 24oz dry.

 

[Bud Bug]

The Flora Nova side was 52oz wet for a total of 111 oz wet.

Usually dry for me ends up being 25% of the wet weight, it should be close to 26/7 oz dry. Will know in about a week.

 

[Bud Bug]

I haven't decided on the next one but I have a few options. I want to do an LED vs 1000W HID grow with the current setup with the two tents separated with some b&w polly and use the same plants/food. I'm working on getting a 300W Stealth Grow LED on loan for the crop. Will see how it goes.

The current setup with the light rail/air cooled was too complicated so I'm either gonna go back to my old tent or dig out an old Sun Hut Silver which is 2.5x4.5' (this is my current choice if I'm to start right away because of how small and hidden it'll be.)

Nice Bud Bug. I'm going to have to get my cloning straightened out so I can run a SOG like that. Definitely looks like it's great for yield.

I hate to see you go with a brand X led. Really going to skew the results of what could be.
You going to run 300 against a 1000? I'll vote for the 1k.

I'm thinking 4 205s or 3 345s. go watt for watt. just yakking,your grow looks awesome bro.

Maybe OG again or PK. Want to do Diesel again but the market is crap here right now and the only ones going fast is PK or other Kush strains.

Good looking bud bro, seems like a good yielding OG especially since most OG's I seen can go 63+ days. The LED vs HPS should be a good show... Hazy's results were very good with the LED... Although I am with him in thinking the 1000w HPS will own the LED. Looking forward to seeing that grow go down bro.

I was gonna go one more week but the buds were so tight that two of the plants had bud rot and didn't want to take a chance.

I want to do the LED but the only way I can get it on loan is to pay the wholesale cost for it and then return it 3 months later - no one seems to want to lend one out even though they know me really good. I'll see what I get out of this and if there's anything left over I might just pay the cost of it and do the shoot out.

I'm probably gonna go with the Sun Hut LG for this grow as its getting hot really fast and I'm gonna need space for an air conditioner in the main room where the tent will sit. With the current one and the DR 120 there won't be enough space.

Ok so after a few days of drying on a new drying rack its down to 32oz total with 16 oz per DM Gold and GH Nova. Seems the DM held more water?

I was a little warm here so it dried way faster then normal. I put them into containers to start sweating. I'm expecting to loose maybe 5 more oz. So on target for 27 oz dry.

 

[Bud Bug]

So it was 26 oz dry. I'd take some bud shots but its all gone.

 

[Bud Bug]

Oh and the Nova was 1oz less then the DM. I'd call that fairly close and not a huge difference.

10-11 gram a plant.. i wouldn't turn my nose up at that fella and its gone hehe good stuff fella..cant wait to see your next endeavors..b safe man

 

[Bud Bug]

So I got a few options for the next one. I'll have to run a smaller setup (tent size wise) as I'll be running when the lend lord comes to pick up more cheques.

I'm either gonna take the current setup and shorten it down to 3.3x4.5/5 feet from 3.3x6.6 or take my old tent and shorten it down to 3x4.5 feet or build a room out of wood and make it look like a big gun/tool storage cabinet. I was gonna use my old SunHut LG silver but its too tall and can't be hidden very well with the green zippers.

I'm also gonna be going with new grodan 4.5x7" square pots which are about 1 gal in size. This'll still allow for 64+ plants in the tiny tent. Should have it going in a few days.

Nice grows, Bud Bug. I'm just about to switch the style up to get a similar looking garden so this was a nice walk through before hand. You still pruning off fan leaves early in flowering?

 

[John goodman]

cant wait to see what you do man...always a pleasure watching what you do in these small spaces..like me

My 2.4 x 1.2 mtr secret jardin tent with 3x600 air cooled (hope you dont mind)

 

[John goodman]

say 30 days in system

cant wait to see your next show man!!

Awesome thread Bud Bug....As soon as my current run is done, i will be starting a 1000watt SOG, should be rolling around the 3rd of June......It will be in a 4x4 Secret J tent...Kush Berry, Doube Dutch, LA Con and a couple Pre-98 Bubba x Kali mist. Hopefully it turns out great, Im a little worried about radiant temps. Nice grow man....keep it up.
