Hanks man, and yeah the yellowish white I'm positive is the damn 1000 watt lights hen the guy told me the 600s and 1000 watt sets were the same price I said screw it and went for it not knowing they would be so damn hard to cool hahaha.

But yeah your right I'm on my way to go set this 10k a/c up hopefully will stop the leaves from frying.

They are on week 5 and usually I let my stuff go for 9 weeks so about 4 more weeks I'm thinking right around May 8th to 15th they should be done.

The white widow clone look like they started budding faster so may be done a week sooner the the mk.


And yes I'm pretty sure the purple mk is purple urkle x mk ultra defense toy looks like a hybrid though some are
More long leafed saliva looking and one is really indica dominant and short and has some really nice buds coming in
I wish I cloned that one hahah.

Its not too late, just take a lower branch that looks like it will make a good clone and re-veg it. Put it in whatever you use to clone and put it under 24/0 of light and it will (hopefully) root and revert back to a vegetative state.

Nice grow brother. 4x1000 is definitely a ridiculous amount of heat! I can imagine what your power bill looks like. Anytime you go over 82F you want those 1000's 2'+ otherwise you will burn. Plants are looking very nice though. I've always wanted to rock a 1000 in a 5x5 for the sole purpose that you can run a dense SOG like yours and not even worry about training, scrogging and the like because there's so much par your lower buds will probably all be at least .3-.4.

What soil mix & nutes are you rocking?

Subbed. Give that cat some shades!! :cool:

Yeah man this is my first grow over 1200 watts so def learning to control the heat and the issues that come with more lights. And it's usually like $50 a light so not tooooooooo bad, but year def kinda hurts a $250 buck bill a month but it's only for 3 months since it's more of a sea of green method and then I can re coop some cash.
Thanks for the advice on the lights I got them almost all the way to the top of the tent now and the taller seed plants are close like a foot and then the smaller clones are like a foot to foot and a half hopefully I can get these temps down and the tops won't burn haha.

Yeah I don't like to hassle with training and all that I like sea of green better just for a quick turn around and no need to support all those branches and stuff. But yea hoping that even the lower branches are nice and dense since there's not too maney feet of foliage that the lights have to penetrate.

I'm using roots organize soil not the 707 the reg bag (I love that stuff) usually I don't feed until flower since the soil is packed with good organic stuff then I use

That stuff the Fluor duo a and b
Only like twice though in week 2 and week 4 maney another hit in week 6 then flush

Was also think of using molasses this grow I've heard good things but never used it myself.


Hahahaahahahaha seriously the cat does hah it's always so interested when ever the tents open up.

I mean, you COULD use any branch you want, but for the sake of your harvest, I would stick to the lower branches. Take a few if you can so if one or two don't survive, you still have at least one healthy clone.

or you could just buy one clone then veg it, those cheesequakes that i have are less than a month in veg, and i could get 20-30 cool clones from each.

I just use rock wool and a little dome to keep the humidity up
I have a pretty good success rate at least in the past, it's been 3 or 4 months since I've cloned

I do want a turbo cloner or whatever though they look bad ass and the 160 one! Like Godamn! I could be cranking out soooo many every week probley be able to help people out by selling those too.

Yeah that's what I was thinking like my clone dude has blue dream and more of the white widow max so I might just buy a couple to let veg outside so that I could take clones off those all year.

Have you ever heard anything bad about doing that taking clones from outdoor plants to use indoor?

Cool we'll then thinking I can probley do that then.

I'm thinking of possibly bringing some of my plants outside to finish flower since there's only 3 weeks it's getting kind of crowded in there and would help the heat issue to take a light down what do ya think?

Yea man seriously seems like a lot of waterin little ones and transplanting lots of clones but that's kinda sick like a perpetual outdoor

Well I took one stragler out to make room for a 5 gallon bucket to set another box fan on.
