hush's 2x2 400w tent, after all
- Thread starter hush
- Start date
Today I took out all the plants to prop up all the branches, as they were flopping all over the place. So, I took some pictures of plants while they were out.
First, let's start with Stacked Kush. I have decided that I really like this plant's characteristics so far! I love the tall, slender kush structure, which lends itself well to being propped up with bamboo stakes. Also, cuttings from this one root super fast, in like less than a week in my cloning setup. It's a very hardy strain, for sure!

Then we have the Lemon Skunk, which I already know I like, but this if the first time I've grown it under HID lighting. It is a much shorter, bushier plant than the Stacked Kush. All the branches have branches growing off of them, and these bushes are a bit unruly. It would make for a spectacular scrog. Next time I will need to prune branches when I grow this one, and it would be better suited for a mono crop. The smell on this one is like fruity, sugary candy!
Well, life got in the way for a while there and I haven't taken any new photos since last update. That being said, I just harvested this tent last week. All plants were taken down at day 64. As of last night they were finally dry enough to take off the lines and begin manicuring. That will happen tonight. Stay tuned for pictures. 
I just had my first real trial of Stacked Kush last night... holy JEEBUS!!!! Let me start by saying I've grown it before, but I was just giving it a test run to see if it would be worth keeping as a mother. That time, I harvested at only 56 days flowering, because I had to go out of town. The end product was nice, the buds were pretty, and the high was decent.... but I knew that they were picked early and therefore I never made a final judgement about this strain.
So this time, after flowering for 9 weeks, they were completely mature, and much MUCH better than last time! The flower to leaf ratio is phenomenal, and manicuring ought to be a breeze. The aromas are extremely complex now! I'm catching whiffs of diesel fuel mixed with burnt rubber/chemical type of smell, sweetened with an overall skunky/fruity top note. It sounds like it would be unpleasant, lol, but it's actually pretty nice, albeit STRONG! The high was filled with euphoric body sensations and a good amount of mental effects. I'll expand on this description as I smoke more of it. That was just a sampler.
Pics of the manicured buds to come...

Okay, the yield was very weak. I ended up with just under a quarter pound of top shelf, and about an ounce of larf. Way too much larf. But that's because I let them go back in early flowering, and neglected to prune for yield. Shit happens. Anyway, here are some pics of the end product...

Lemon Skunk:
The Lemon Skunk is much stickier than the Stacked Kush is, but it obviously is a bit leafier and more sativa-looking, which gives it that kind of old-school look that I used to see in the bags I bought in the 90s. It is also a bit more potent than the Stacked Kush, too, in terms of how little is required to feel their respective effects. So, looks like both of these have now officially earned a permanent space in the mother cabinet.
(Also... DAMN!! Buds grown under a 400 watter are so small and puny to me now!!!)

is the mini cool tube still available?? I can't seem to find it anywhere in the US, brick and mortar or online
I am having trouble finding a cool tube that i can fit in m 2x2 tent
the ducting for the cool tube, is that your only air export for this tent?
carbon scrubber?
I was planning on a sealed cool tube with 200cfm fan and no need to carbon scrub (since its not exposed to tent atmosphere)
and a seperate air export with carbon scrubber using a 100cfm fan
I know this thread is 3 years old but I can hope I get answers, can't I?
