Looking good dude! PPP is advertised to be done in 56-70 days but mine took quite a bit longer to show sex once i flipped the lights..like 2-3 weeks!! Your 2 PPP's should yield you quite a bit. I got just about 3 O'z dry when all was said and done just from my one plant :hump:

Day 32 Flower (81 Total)

Temp = 72F / 27% RH - Daytime

I should have some high quality pics here over the holidays. For now, these will have to do. They're finishing up their 5th week of flower, so they have a good 3-5 weeks left. The SW's are about close to 3ft and the PPP are well over and want to keep movin! You'll notice the bent PPP stalks in pics 1-2.

Only changing res about every 2 weeks. I'm using Advanced Nutrients' Sweet Leaf in addition to Botanicare's PBP.

Veg

My Strawberry Cough and Afghan Kush plants in veg are close to 30 days old and are looking a bit small for their age - But otherwise, they're doing ok. I have low humidity in the veg room...and temps are hovering around 70. The roots are popping out evverrrryywhere out from the rockwool cube.....I need to get them into something bigger asap. I went ahead and put some damp towels in the room as well, to try and get the humidity up.

P.s - I did chop off a few of the real small branches that wern't going to get any light coverage from the buttom.....sampled a tiny bit of bud that was growin that did have trichomes (bout 4-4.5 weeks flower)....it wasn't anything special....dried it for 36 hrs....gave me a slight cerebral buzz.
Look very good, nice fat colas on those PPP's!
What are your current lights you are using?

200+ grams from one plant ;) under a single 400w HPS with a daystarAC hood. And a couple of CFL's for coverage. This isnt even as much as it could have been. Im sure there is mouth dropping amounts people have gotten out there, but three oz's isnt it. :)

Its all about veg time :eyesmoke:


Lookin good Bigbud! i cant wait to see that PPP and the SW is lookin Great! Trichomes are going to being to form a good numbers soon if they havnt already. And she can handle HIGH PPM's so dont be afraid to give her alot of food ;) you wont regret it. She fattens up nicly.

Day 39 Flower / 88 Total

Thanks for the comments guys! Finishin' out the 6th week of flower!

I'm using a 400w HPS for flower, and 72w red + 72w blue for a total of 144w of t5 HO fluoro's for veg.

Using full strength Botanicare PureBlend Pro Bloom and Advanced Nutrient's Sweet Leaf for Flower. Using Tap water that sits out for 24 hrs.

Trichs

I'd say its about 50/50 clear/cloudy at the moment. Baby's are boomin!

Stress

The PPP plants seem to have no problem at all dealing with the bent/snapped stalks. I went ahead and bent them again to keep them as horizontal as possible...I can't really afford to move the light up, cuz my Snow White's in the back will be too far away from the light.

Verdict

I say I still got a good 2-3 weeks left at least. 3 oz from 1 PPP plant? Crazy! I will admit that my PPP's might LOOK like they are going to yield more than an OZ....but who knows :)

Looking good bro. I was in the same situation with the light. One plant was taller than the others so I really couldnt afford to move it up. You will figure something out. I went ahead and moved up the light and bought some additional cfls to cover the shorter plants. Also just ordered another one of the $20 150w HPS.

Also, i'm updating my journal with the PPP and WW girls! One day i'll have massive PPP tops!!!LOL!!!

Hey man. I just noticed you surrounded your mesh pots with hydroton. Wait until after you harvest. My entire tray was full of roots, pain in the ass to clean, but the yield was very good.

Hey bigbud, what type of system are you using again? Been researching setups for a few days to maybe go hydro or aero.

Yea, I'm not looking forward to that lol. But I am looking forward to harvest in less than 2 weeks or so!

I'm using hydro for both veg and flower. Veg has a drip system and flower has an ebb n flow system. Both custom made with various pieces n parts and labor. Not too hard, though.

Thanks man, i am still researching how to operate and maintain a hydro setup. They seem so complicated to me.:wall:

Dude. I did my first grow using an Ebb and Flow system. If you have the proper tools, hydro can be easy. All you need is two containers, a pump and a couple of fittings. Makes it very easy to take longer trips away from the plants. Just top off the rez, and you're golden for days......
