hi

i have little grow going in a 60x60x120cm/2x2x4 tent. light is 250w cmh, medium is soil in roughly 16litre/4gal bags. giving them tapwater with biocanna vega/flores. once again i popped seeds and eventually got these females, couple grape krush-females and one ogxog/bs2.2 female. for next run i'll run clones from the best ones. efficiency will be what it is for now(one spot unused, contained males) but i hope for decent return. they've been on 12/12 since first of may(day 0) i think. environment is at decent temperatures and carbon filtered. should be ok until july.

about 18 days, all are smelling really nice. there was some clawing but it seems that they are kicking out of it. cant't really raise the lamp anymore so i hope that they don't get taller, done some stem crushing already.

Howdy there unthing, great work on the small grow, any grow is better than no grow. How do you find the cmh for flower? I often wondered about these and if they were better than hps? Anyway let me know about that and if you can't oh well. You got N E air movement in there? I have heard the kushes stretch a bit, so I guess fimming is working for you? What else have you got in that soil? I run a soil mix with all sorts, just wondering what you're doing?

honestly at this point i can't tell the diffrence except that it's white light insted of orange glow. soil is just local commercial garden soil, you know compost, peat and some sand+this and that.

Okay cool, no worries about the light, so they just have a higher kelvin rating (more blue). What are the flowers like on completion, have you noticed a difference or is this the 1st time you've used cmh? I understand about your mix, I get a similar mix.

You got N E air movement in there? Or is that sorted?

Anyway all the best.

it's hard to say because i'm trying these new seeds instead of known clone. there is a fan below the bulb and carbon filter+inline fan on top

Cool, I guess it can be hard to change things that have worked forever before and then try something new. I have a known clone as well and it rocks, but I also have to try new stuff. Good to hearen you have a carbon filter and extraction sorted.

environment should be ok, couple leafs got too close and crisped but budsites are on the safe zone i have so many seeds i want to pop, quite common problem in any scale. but next round will be clones from these.

I know what you mean about so many seeds you want to pop, what a problem to have hey? Minor crisp is okay I guess as long as its not too much, you appear to be doing well in such a small space.

promising, something between sweet bubblegum and some floral perfume type of stuff, but i've had flu lately so there's probably more to it :)

it's about month of 12/12. not showing all full plants (kinda hard to take decent pic in a such a small place) but you get the idea what's going on atm. smelling great.

chopped at 66 days, lot of room for improvement as always, path to enlighntment is long and rocky and next time i'll do a full circle which will bump the yield up a notch among other things like canopy management and so on.
