HAHA nice bro.

Check it out. Hung my fan and filter using 14 guage galvi wire....
Hooks on the wall and a couple slits cut in the top of the tent.
maintaining a temp of 84 right now.

BUT.
it rose to 84 with NO fan on while i was working in there.
then after i hooked it up, it maintained a steady temp all day completely closed up...
I can only assume that if the temp does not rise as high tomorrow for any reason, then i can maintain my 78-82 tomorrow.
We will see.

All depends on how you grow her. If LST'D, then yes, she is a heavy yeilder. If just grown witout any type of training, a plant that's let's say is 2 and half foot tall will yeild well over 2 and half, to almost 3 ounces wet. Which isn't bad at all for a 2' ft talk plant in my book. Her cola's stay super tight, and she smells like straight up candy! :mrgreen:

hey dank, thanks for the helping hand... I'm looking for a second opinion if available. I hhave "flushed" these last two weeks with bud candy and ph balanced city water. Now, I called the dude at the local grow shop for some advise about putting the plants bqack on nutes and which ones(if any). He said I did it just right, two weeks of flushing then put back on nutes for two weeks at 50% petency. Im using "roots organic arura" ( don't know if I can name drop, sorry if I effed up) 1 part for bloom. ive had them on this since week 6(besides flush). before it was 2 part GH. If u need to know what they were on before in detail, ask. im in week 12 going on 13 and I have only about 1% amber triches. in all, they are on that 1 part bloom, bud candy, floralicious plus and calimag pumped up to 200PPM instead of 50. What is your opinion on this(anyone please)? the main problem is they wont ripen... its diesel #1. if im not mistaken, that is sativa dominant and normally takes a while, right...? I have pics. its one LARGE plant. any advise is good, or if u need more info i'll tell you. 600 w hps lamp and I know its not ph issuses. I know theyre are a lot of variables, just ask for detail. please and thank you View attachment 2853778View attachment 2853781View attachment 2853782View attachment 2853783P1030727.jpgView attachment 2853780An update to this problem: very, very weird... I haven't seen much of anything for trichome maturity these last few weeks(except turning to milky color...) I checked the maturity in the morning and as usual it was nothing... I came on here in a panic, asked for help, didn't get much. around the time my 12/12 day cycle ends, I went to take better photos... I checked the trichs and 50-60% were STARTING to change to amber/brown. so there I have it, its gonna get better I would imagine. I still want to learn from this and hear what u have to say... what could have caused this? its not ph, that's a fact. thank you for reading even if u don't reply. have a good one.

some pics, I got a camera, hope they are clear, I have more to cut, and more pics to take! Severe rain (steady drizzle all day and low temps) forced me to chop all but the royal haze and super silver. They got started late, and probably started flowering early this month, they have about a month to go at least... but they don't have a lot of bud on them, so I am hoping that they won't rot or anything, I cut some leaves to open the center and help to keep air flowing. I think I will go and chop the rest in a week or so, and use my best judgement on the two remaining (I have some wild thai, and some DWC left too, not a whole lot, maybe a couple Os) what do you guys think? first time grower here!! I have harvested about 100 seeds or so, and have them labeled for later, next year at the latest lol, got about 20 from the autoflower and not a lot of bud, maybe I have 20 autoflowering kush seeds now, I think that it didn't grow much cause the whole thing got seeded almost immediately

Judging by the weather I need some faster flowering strains. anyone got any ideas for some? I want it to finish about mid october, after that it gets too rainy and way too cold. I know I had about 2 weeks minimum on most of these, and would like to have been able to get the most out of them

Check out Sweet Seeds F1 Fast Version strains. like Green poison or something. they are bred with autos but not auto. they require a photo period to flower. but have a reduced flowering time.

I got a new grow going now and here's a question for you. How big of a light should I get for 9 plants that are about 3 feet tall? I have them vegging under 8 42 watt and 6 23 watt cfls and I'm planning on adding a 180 to 300 watt 7 band led. Would all the cfls in addition to the led be overkill? I have them in a closet about 2.51393139785993.jpgx4x6. I plan on vegging til the light comes in and flipping then. I'm ordering the led next weekend hopefully. I plan on hanging the led in the center and placing the cfls on the edges and more lower in the canopy to hit the bottom and middle buds. I'm not as worried about electricity as I am about using too much light or of using light on the sides and bottom would take away weight from the top. There has been not much training just taking off most fan leaves and some light thinning of the canopy. Here are some pics so you can get an idea. Also if you have suggestions for lights let me know. I'm wanting to budget around 250 for the light, or 120 each for 2 smaller lights. They have been vegging since thanksgiving weekend. Would i need to transplant as well? 1 gallon pots i have 5 gallon available as well

Well, from what I am seeing. Honestly your best bet would be to sink those ladies up 2 or 3 nodes in a deep 5 gln container to start. ;) Then get yourself one of these http://www.thelashop.com/digital-dimmable-ballast-for-mh-hps-grow-light-system-250w.html?gclid=CIulrJLg4bwCFYkWMgodVh0AFQ for 80$ that is a veg and or flower light. So you can use either MH to veg, and HPS bulb to flower. If need be, depending on your $ your working with you can always add more light later if need be. If the 9 is closed in in a closet or box, and you have your walls covered with a reflect-ant then they should fine. I wouldnt push the # of plants past that, and most definatly you will need more light, so just up the wattage to this if you can and you'll do just fine. http://www.amazon.com/Apollo-Horticulture-GLK400UM421HPS-Dimmable-Vertical/dp/B00CPDDIOU/ref=sr_1_38?ie=UTF8&qid=1393141787&sr=8-38&keywords=400+watt+hps+system

I was wanting to use full spectrum led not hps or mh. They run too hot for the cabinet and we have the temps going good now and stable. Anything hotter and I'll fry them all. I was definitely gonna try to sink them a little lower tho. Should have mentioned the heat factor

Yeah those work just fine. I have found that if you have a high velocity fan blowing towards your light that it brings the temps down considerable. Also a air conditioner works great to. Like said I didnt really know your growing situation, and if you grew in a box, tent, basement, etc'. lol I run a 800 watt LED + HPS & MH for all the spectrum's. lol I even have a few CFL'S hanging around for extra popcorn growth towards the bottoms. :mrgreen: haha talking about spectrum's.. 532956_640595479288902_1211026432_n.jpg
