Im still getting used to wearing mine. Got them hanging right inside the door, eye level - still forget.

Cuts out so much eye strain and that temporary blindness when you close the door on the grow.

Looking forward to another in-depth pic heavy update.

I just installed the "housing" for these bad boys and agree on the better eye transition from grow room to CFLs and shit.

Big Picture update coming thursday. I've been sleep deprived and right now I'm going to recharge and step back on my game.

still got that good camera 2 :D

Man that roomis packed with healthy ladies!!
Looking forward to the grow
Cheers

:wave: Hello and welcome Greenadian!

Thanks bunches!

Right now I'm having trouble keeping an even canopy as everything is different and I'm running out of space for these big bad bitches.

Constantly learning and now I know that its not worth vegging big ass plants in such a small grow room. Makes you think they can get big but then the stretch rocks it. Plus all these genetics are unknown to me so I don't have anything dialed in.

Can't wait to sleep for 10 hours tonight. I know if I knock out before lights on the hoes will be hungry.

I also killed one of my sativa loco tester plants. Well if it revitalizes itself from the epic wilt - Then maybe. Or maybe theres a different problem...

you'll find out soon enough.

Thinking of getting rid of my bed and getting another tent or two and sleeping on the floor but have some more flower rooms :D - maybe 2014 after the vote ;)

Pictures from Day 20 Week 3

One of these plants is getting real tall compared to the others. Day 8 they were only inches apart - now we have a 5/6inch different between #1 and the other 2. #2 is 33.5'' while #3 is 34.5''

Yumbolt x Vintage 2006

Yumbolt x Vintage 2006

This plant is MASSIVE!!! 1/4th of the closet. Could easily have been the only plant on the right side of the room with a scrog.

Hope this one turns on danky - i'll be keeping it - it had vigor from the start.



She has the really red petioles

Day 21 Week 3

Day 21 Week 3

General Update

The cali connection randoms are budding hard - most likely first ones to be finished/ready for harvest - indicas for sure.

They didn't stretch much at all - if any bit but they were growing and are very nice and wonderful smelling and have some nice frost already appearing.

Clones are successful and will be kept of these fine specimens. They love the food btw - not picky or finicky like some other plants - ahem.

The Jack33 is going to be a beauty. Wish she had more room for herself but As long as these buds come out good i'll keep her too.

Vintage is most likely out the door - stretched a bit but there just not vigor like the yumbolt in this thing - I'm going to let it grow out - and unless these are EPIC headstash buds - fuck this tiny little runt.

The Night Terror OG smells like the other 1 :D I CAN'T WAIT! Still smoking on some of that its delicious and powerful.

The blackwater OG better live up to its predecessors - everyone loves the blackwater and I too - if this plant goes well it'll be a stable with the yumbolt/jack33/Night Terror.

Those 4 will be taking up a single tray with some random fill ins like these successful clones that I'm not wasting :)

The other tray will be testers and the SCxSSSDH girls I plan to continue on.

So ripped.

Love how you are getting so much done with limited space. Shows real dedication to this plant. The nugs from your last grow were damn legit. There was a really stinky pheno in one of those jars i remember.

Talking about limited space. I'm getting rid of my queen bed and a lot of clothes and maybe a book shelf.

Going to get more tents - hopefully 2 4x4's or maybe 3x3's and one will be a male flower pollen incubator while the other is going to be a second flower room.

After I get a nice sperm bank going I'll make one tent a Test b ed for my OG Crack so that I can lock in a pheno or two with no hermie tendencies and thats as dank as that cough syrup pheno - mmmm

35% of my success on the quality is thanks to Advanced Nutrients. Genetics takes 55% while the cure gets 10% - I noticed a long 7 day dry is the best - practically don't need a cure - but the cure does increase the terpentenes dramatically.

Advanced Nutrients is the icing on the cake.

Day 26 Week 4

The Jack33 will be a keeper if the smoke says so - shes budding up nicely like the yumbolt and SCxSSSDH #4



Black water might not be a pheno I want to keep around - i'll be buying another pack of beans in the future before they all disappear - the mendo purps came out really well in the first two plants



This Night Terror OG shit - FUCK YEAH!!!! Shes FROSTY - most frost outa the whole garden.

Kinda finicky looking due to space constraints but This looks like it will be just as good a pheno as the last.

Vintage isn't looking to bad - just a small plant - maybe just a slow vegger like others - we'll see.



The C ali Connect Freebies are looking proper - if only bigger probably would be more appealing but they will all be head stash and I have successful clones of all 3.

I was hoping for some full closet shots... And that's a FULL closet. I bet no light hits the floor.

Think the NT OG will be done in time for Halloween? Fitting :D

I wanna play pot jenga too!

chyo!!!! Sup WG!

Theres practically no room for me in there or for pictures to come out as nice as last round.

Last round I didn't do things as best they could of been done when it came to maximizing space and plant training.

She might be 9 weeks but I'm betting all the Cali Connect Randoms will be ready first they are heavy indica dominant plants.

Lol pot jenga! Perfect wording to describe how I feel in there with the canopy management LOL!

:smoke out:

Day 28 Week 4

Day 28 Week 4

The smells - the frost - the lack of space - the simplicity of the feeding regime and the results are making me one happy ass gardener.

I guess the saying goes true each grow gets better and better!

Yumbolt is making me happy but she is Nitrogen hungry. I realized why she is SO successful compared to others. She is in a hempy styled 3 gallon container. And the best kind too. 60/40 Perilite ontop of 2 inches of pure growstones. She has nute burn on the tips but shes lacking nitrogen for sure. A lot of lime green/yellow fans and I dont' know what to do.

Jack33 is moving along real nice.
This blackwater OG pheno is extremely stinky and I can smell the purple in it already.
The Night Terror OG is stacking just as hard as the last pheno but I don't recall this amount of frost before! Shes COATED! Bitch got a spray on frost job like those fake ass italians lol! Nah shes super legit and I'm stoked her vegging sisters are going hard in the paint.

Vintage is changing the tides! The plant is doing better than anticipated.

I much have frost on every single strains fan leaves.

The cali connects are going to be done first - I hope ones a SFV OG.

Check out the Album for more pictures!

Damn dude it all looks spot on. I picture you ducking and weaving - like a fighter - avoiding contact. Taking shots (pics) where you can.
