Well...... I see the yield difference for sure! BUT!!!! You knew there was going to be a BUT... My Thunder Goo's are just as frosty in my CFL cab so my quality argument may stay the same but I still have 10 days worth the 10K MH light to hit them with and thats when I should see some interesting shit! I will say that the Flubba x Blue Moonshine's are more resinous in the tent but then again I've only grown it once in the cab and they were small, I have 3 in the cab now so we'll see how frosty they get... Anybody got any hints or help they can shoot me for the Bubba Chunk bitch :thanks:

love the tent setup you really put that 400 to work for you


i read all the pages but i could have missed it... what size fans are you using for exhaust/intake and what about a carbon filter (or what are you doing about the smell)

Thanks guys I wasn't sure how I was doing as far as a HID grow goes hahaha I just got a bag of Biobizz Coco Mix anybody use it? I notice this shit has some kind of slow release ferts in it wtf!!! I'm gonna look around and see what others say about it..

hey bud, things look great besides ur bubba! i hate fussy strains, it drives you crazy wondering if its an over feed or under feed or what ever the hell else! As for the coco with time released, id highly recommend not using anything with time released ferts. If you think its hard to dial a fussy plant in with a soiless medium, just imagine with a medium that has ferts releasing whenever they want and in different ammounts at different times that you can not control.

Well I've searched around and can't find anything on it and the bag says it just contains coco coir and coco peat and it looks and feels like the other brand I have just I see little yellow things here and there and they are little bb like things and I can pop em when I squeeze em so I don't know!!!

I'm using a 4" 177 CFM Vortex for exhaust and cooling my hood, and I have a lil Cool Breeze fan on the floor and my temps stay around 70-75 :eggnog:

Flubba x Blue Moonshine day 35 notice the cola on the right in the last pic how it's got way more bud sites that the others? That's cuz it's the super cropped branch I did it to 2 of them on that plant and both of them have the fattest colas and even those have side branches with buds that made tops out of themselves so I am going to get into super cropping all my HID grows :smokeit:

I totally agree with the chopping. I chop at least 6 growing ends on each plant over its veg cycle. I do it for clones but also for the extra weight. If you do it early you will end up with a single plant with a bunch of big colas and dozens of medium sized ones.

Looking sticky!
