ive been so busy setting up my new pad that everything else gets a little less attention.i get my shipping container in a week. ive started removing the leaves in front of bud sites but no major defoliation yet.they should stop their stretch by next week. i already want to modify this box, but im not going too. im going to build another box with my new mods later. i might stack two 150w hps in same size box. ive got some killer ideas for some high yeilding small cabinets. thanks digdug!!

 

[digdugdank]

everything looks awesome, i feed the girls today. i use the biocanna veganic line up with there boost product, my plants all luv it!! up til now ive only given plain water cause my pots are stacked and spiked. im brewing up a nice tea for them as i type. i think ill defoliate this weekend, nothing crazy just a clean up. i have a number of improvements that will be addressed in my new box. just because im getting my shipping container this week doesnt meen im dropping this project. its just gonna be put off for a little while til i get my container up and running.im still gonna update on the progress of this run and i might even make my brother take some pictures once he gets this box. thanks digdug!!

im thinking about running this box once more after this banana og run. if i dont hit my 1lb mark, then ill be forced to run old faithful.......... ill stack 16 bluedream cuts around this 250w bulb. gotta love the bluedream!! thanks digdug!!

Digdugdank, I've never wanted to watch a grow so bad on the webz! Have you hit an elbow with the blue dream under a 250? I rock a 250 up north and perpetually harvest. I could only imagine topping out at 10ozs if that. My buddy rocks the banana. From what I have seen, it could smell and taste more pungent, but it has excellent bag appeal and it has very strong potency. Much more so than the BD. For an apartment grow like mine, it would be perfect. But an elbow...have you gotten that off the bluedream? Amazing! Honestly, you have the cleanest, most pro 250 setup I've seen in a while, including mine! Keep it growing!

DDD I really like your setup man - looking awesome. I have to say that a pound from any 250w seems unlikely. That said I am rooting for you - it would be lovely to be proved wrong. You've certainly got something huge to aim for. Good luck buddy

Looking good digdug,although as others have said I don't think you're going to get close to a pound with a 250w HPS...that's 1.79 gpw!

Anywhere between a 1/4lb & 10 ounces is possible though.

Good luck to ya bro.

thanks for positive vibes

thanks for positive vibes

update:: i topped the girls soil with fresh live worm castings and gave them a drink of three day tea.they are really starting to stink pretty!! im glad these are growing outside in the patio. the pound estimate was brought on by the number of plants(16) and the size of the soil container(1 gal).even 8 zips would be awesome with one 250w hps. the 250w light was put in because that is what i had. i wanted to do a 400w but i think its too much for one point in that small space. im not running a/c just the fan u see. my brother is taking this box and im going to make a new one a little different. im taking what i have learned so far and making some killer improvements. im stacking 2 150w hps bulbs with a 100w mh bulb in the middle. that way i can spread out the 400w to multiple points. the fan will be on top this time pulling hot air from top out. the screens will be behind the plants, and i will put a drainage system in the new box. in my head this all looks and works great but once i start building ill probably end up with another configuration. i will post pictures of my new small box build as well as my bigger box build (40' shipping container) with vertical thouies. and i will be keeping you all updated on this 250w grow box. thanks digdug!!

I find thats the best part about this hobby....were all like stoned engineers n' shit.

Good call on the stacked smaller lights. Wish I'da done it.

I think you're on the right track there Dank - sounds like an awesome setup. Stacked vert is the bomb diggity.

8 zips sounds like a great target for this round - I think you'll hit it
