The Cage:1,2 sqft vertical micro cab 130 watt cfl

[sgapetti]

they look great sgap!
nice green/yellow gradient in the cage while flushing

This run i managed to have less nutes in the sub to start with, looking better i guess than last time. keeping this sub now for a few run.
take care my friend!

Looks great bro! Can't wait for the smoke report

Hello fratello, i keep you updated. Let me know when you start your new 3D!! what happened to the run with only cmh?

All the best S

smelling rutten swwet tropical fruit / pineapple , about 2 weeks to go, sexing 2 mextiza and the panama, keeping several rooted cuts ( blue hazy99 # 3 as a reserve in case the 2 mextiza show balls.

Next up the situation in the veg/mom cab

looks like they r doing gr8. 1 Q. r the clones or from seeds?

Hello Sgapetti! Whenever I accompany her diary. You get good results in a small space. In this round you are using only the flo cfl cool white 6400 k. Have you noticed any difference in this round for the above, when used warm / cool (2500k / 6400 k) white?

Thx all for the support guys , appreciated!

@1cheesebuds : 3 from clons and 2 from seeds

@crbs : to early to say anything , pheno dependent anyway, but they keep making new pistils , specially the 2 blue hazy99, i start wondering if they take longer to mature will only @6400 ligths?

I keep you all updated, thx for stopping by

blue hazy99 #1

One more week to go, switched a 36 w 6400k lamp with a 26 w 6400k full spectrum +uvb . Switched as well to 11/13 to speed up maturation.

Very little water now till the end, i end up with 1 female mextiza and 1 female panama in the veg cab, next up the new lady's to enter the flo cab, keep yuo updated!

Peace S

Looking great as usual sgapetti.

Not sure what your stash situation is looking like atm, but those are looking a good 3 weeks out before they will be done. If you are sitting ok with stash i'd recommend hitting them with 2-3 feedings of just bloom @ 6ml per gal., then resume straight water until they finish.

Fratello, the stash is looking good, still smoking from last year, i told you , I am a moderate smoker. I didn't need to start my summer cab this year. The reason is i am getting more and better quality from the little cab, and i am able to veg/sex in a separate cab.

That said, i will take harvest shot in a better light , they are almost fully mature, beside the haze dominant blue hazy99 #1 wich is trowing new pistils like the Sam haze cross, and i suspect the 6400k light is to blame with just this pheno, the rest is looking good and lots of brown pistils.

The real problem is the veg cab, is about to explode and I need to transplant them asap.

Peace S

I'm seeing in your cab exactly what I saw happen in my cab when flowering 6400k the whole time.

The more sativa leaning plants never finish, they keep throwing small foxtails/white hairs and produce airier buds.

I don't see myself ever running 6400k all the way through flowering again.

I might try a mixed spectrum run that finishes with only soft white, but more than likely I'll just stick with all soft white for flowering.

Thx for the feed back blynx , i am going back to mixed spectrum from start to finish, so far is been the best compromise with quality/quantity . This run , as we discussed earlier , was a test run for both of us, but i need to taste the herb after a 3 month cure, as i have done with the other spectrum combination. This is been discussed many time with my bro Mister_D , but we are talking hid ligths , mh and cmh ,while i am using cfl.

@ Mister_D , any taught on your run with the stacked cmh? Will be very interesting to hear your comment.

Peace S

Very interesting about the sativas not wanting to finish as quickly under higher kelvin cfl bulbs. I have never gone more than a 1 to 1 ratio of hps to MH for flower, but I know people that grow strictly under MH bulbs. Using the same cuts as me, they got very similar finish times. Doesn't mean much though, kelvin ratings are a very poor way to compare bulbs. I think it's much more important to look at the complete spectrum produced. My research/experiments with CMH have led me to believe there is a lot that can be influenced by the spectrum being given to a plant. I still have a lot more research/data collecting to do, but I noticed a few distinct differences in my romulan when grown under a mix of CMH and hps vs. just hps. First, the leaves grew much larger than normal. There wasn't noticeably more in quantity, just larger in size. Second one is hard to decide on. I can't figure out if there is more trichs on average, or if the fact that they are now larger just makes it "appear" like there are more crystals . Smell increased during flowering, but seems to be about the same now that it's dry. Lastly, the effect is fuller, much closer to outdoor grown romulan. I don't know how to describe that to someone that's never tasted the same clone grown properly indoors and out, but those that have will know exactly what I mean. Still too early for me to have any concrete opinions on them, but they are showing a lot of promise.

new run

new run

moved the cage in a different cab last Sunday with only 2700k ligths @ 6/18 for speeding up things, finishing this weekend with 48 h of darkness.

Transplanted the new lady's today in the flo cab, they are about 3 months old .

putting the net walls asap for some serious bondage

As usual , 5 plants in single container of about 7,5 us gallons ( 28 L ), same sub as last run.
2 blue hazy99 ({ sam haze cross x c99bx1}X blue mistyc ),
1 sam the skunkman haze/afghan dominant
1 panama , cbg
1 mextiza , cbg

This is going to be a seed run

this is the mextiza male that i am going to use , stinky and vigorous

Stature lends itself to your grow style too . Have you flowered it to completion yet? With your low tolerance you are in a perfect position to smoke your males (make dry sift with a fully flowered plant ). This can be an indicator of the resin profiles passed on to it's offspring.

I have a rooted cut off the male , is going in in due time i have to keep things small in my veg cab , 6 d x 24 w x 20 h
that male was huge , i hope oaxcan 79 dominant , i left few branches and dininished to root ball and transplanted in a much smaller container , i keep him for the moment , the female i will use for the first F2 is much smaller, nepal sativa dominant i hope from her size .

The blue hazy99[ ( sam haze cross x c99bx1) X blue mistyc ] turned out really nice , i am doing my pheno #3 again , and everything in the cab will be pollinated with the male.

Looking forward for your new 3D really , keep me updated .

Take care S

Great job!
Hi i am italian, and so sorry for my bad english, but i seem to have seen you in italian forum, it's right?
I have a little stupid answer: but for the cooling and air circulation, in the flow cab, what do you use? i don't see in the photo..
I want to do a similar cab for veg and flow, and I found this thread very interesting!
Thaks!
