Those r some lunkers!!
Man that looks easy as hell to trim. Not many leaves in those buds. You are such a lazy bastard.
Thanks everybody. I have literally been feeding the plants with a hose hooked up directly to the wash tub for a several weeks now. Nothing special, just add tap water. It's the plants and the soil doing all the work.
I pulled down 2- 8oz and 1- 1lb 7oz sour dubbs. Pretty sure I can break 4lbs a bed even with dubb.
Lighting is 6- 600w gavita se now.

My ceiling is 7.5', the beds are 18" off the ground, then give me another 12" for stem, and there's 4' for foliage that need to be a minimum of 2' from the lamps... So yeah 600's were the only way to go. Gavitas are by far the most cost effective fixtures available right now. The ballasts don't get hot at all, and they're really light. I'm impressed so far.
I would normally foliar throughout the grow, but I wasn't having the best responses in the beginning of the grow so I just skipped it this time. I think my temps were getting too high. I changed up the fans, and the gavitas are allowing for more airflow as well, so I'm pretty sure that problem is solved. I'll be back to a regular foliar schedule soon. I just got a whole gallon of Pepzyme C and some spectrum.
I'm really gonna blow these beds up on this next grow.
I forgot to say thanks to silver for coming by to help me trim that ND. After i made short work of his last harvest with my bonsai heroes, he got some testarossas... a little bit more noisy and bulky than the heroes, but together we got it all trimmed and hung in about 3.5 hours (with me stopping to cimpletely disassemble and clean my heroes), after about 1.5hs chopping and big leafing. There's at least 4lbs ND there imo. I'll know for sure soon enough.
Now i'm taking volunteers for the final dry trim...

Dayum bobble! That ND is thick, nice pull. I really want to try out those gavita 600/750flex over some beds, but my new basement is less than 7ft, so I don't know if I Could make it work. I'm also putting together some organic soil to give it a try once I get a couple runs in this new spot knocked out. I'm already running unproven strains atm random leary to try anything experimental until I'm in a more solid financial spot. Did I overlook the tk/sdub/gg harvest pics? Lookin good as always

I didn't bother with the flex b/c even 750w is too powerful for my height. I had some bleached tips this last grow from a 1kw digital, and there's always some tacoing. Buy a few 600's and see how you like them. The reflectors are 96% efficient and only $30 to replace. Lamps last for 2 years at 95% efficiency. It's a no brainer.
GG4 was a dud- from root issues, no nematodes or phytoplasma or w/e people are making up this week. TK was actually dubb, so it turns out i pretty much ran a whole bed of dubb. I didn't take pics of that bed before i chopped. I only pulled 2.5lbs off it, but that's not too bad considering it wasn't full. I know i can get at least 4.
Your using the single ended gavitas? I didn't even know they made them.
Congrats buddy that's a good pull!
that ND bed looks crazy bobble. congrats on a heavy harvey!
i'm dealing with a similar height restriction. we got the gavita DE pro fixtures and tuned them down to 600w. we're shooting to keep the canopy under 4'9" which gives the plants a 24" clearance to the bulb, which is the minimum gavita recommends.
we're making it work! but we had to keep the containers on the ground, sacrificing casters or tables, and because of that bigger containers.
love the work you're doing with the beds. setting a good example!

Count me in on that. Oh wait thats trimming never mind.Now i'm taking volunteers for the final dry trim...
I dont know what the hell it is but I got it. Lost some of my strains to it. Deathstar, golden goat, empress cindy and og. Not sure but I have to clean out the ones I have to tell which ones still have it. Pretty distinct once the plants get a
little bigger. The branches snap at the main stem and hang down.
Sucks ass. I had dunked all my plants to get rid off fungus
gnats and that is how it spread I believe. So I think it transfers in the roots. But who cares I will switch media and not rework it and cull the infected plants. Got dope to grow so cant worry about dead plants. I make the killing fields look like resort town when it comes to my grow.
