hush grows up! 1000w MH/HPS in 4x4 tent
- Thread starter hush
- Start date
I think that'll be a damn fine setup. You'll want a SOG variety or ScrOG and prune cuz that's a lot of branches.
I hadnt read page 15 yet.

Things are looking nice in there man. My mate's got a great way to combat floppy donkey dicks. All you need is 2 x 4ft bamboo sticks and some string.
Use the poles of the tent frame to fix the bamboo's horizontally at the desired height, at around week 2 flower. One on the left and right hand side of the tent. Then tie the string across the canopy as desired, so that when the colas grow, they got something to rest on.
This way, you dont need so many bamboos and it's not so labour intensive. I'll see if I can dig up some pics to show what I'm trying to say.
Great thread man keep em pics coming and thanks for sharing too

I can picture that, I know what you're saying. That thought occurred to me, too, as I was thinking about what to do next time, and I was thinking about mounting a couple of horizontal scrog-type trellises in there that the buds would grow up through... Anyway, I ended up passing on that thought because the plants would be stuck in the tent forever, with no way of taking them out for maintenance or whatever. I suppose that would be okay if my tent had access windows on the sides, so I could tend to the plants in the back, but it doesn't, so I have to be able to remove the plants. Thank you though, that's an awesome suggestion.
Netting and Cola nugs...Hush's new doohickey.

Boom-Shaka-Laka!
Lookin' good, hush!
I suspect your yield may be greater than what we recently harvested, 380G (13.5 oz) from a 6 plant mixed non-trained grow of 2 Satori, 2 Rishi Kush, 1 White Lavender & 1 NLxSK.
1000w bulbs kick ass.
It's curing now, and I'll need to take a few days off work for sampling purposes so the residue can get out of my system. Federally mandated random drug testing work environments suck, but I'll be done with that in ~ 3 months, out to pasture, collecting my pension & SS.
My former managers will be welcome to stop by & kiss my old hippie ass any time they want, however.

He deserves the full version. [YOUTUBEIF]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RVzIDlDnLE[/YOUTUBEIF] BOOM shalaklak BOOM.
You rockin 5 five gallons in that 4x4?
Thanks LyryC. I have a 35 gal trash can next to the tent that uses a pump and irrigation tubing to water each individual bucket. No timers, it is manually run, once a day. It is drain to waste, and I try to only let the solution really overflow through the buckets once a week or so. Other times, I try stopping the pump before too much (if any) fluid overflows out of the buckets.
I do, I *totally* love the 1000! I don't know if I will ever be able to grow under low wattage bulbs ever again now!
