Controlled Environment Agriculture by Shrubs

Love the trics all over the leaves, great for hash butter oil whatever one fancies. I'm amazed how much those plants filled out, I remember when they were just lil guys. Is the sativa influence the reason they look so lengthy and small when starting flowering but then blow up into these huge monsters? Not very experianced with the sativas personally.

Ya, I even underestimated them! A few weeks back (like week 3) I was saying they would
max at 38-40 inches (I flowered them at 12-14) and they are finishing at 46-48................

These 8x 4SD's I have flowering I placed in at 10-12 inches and its week 3 day 2 they are
already 30-32 inches and on par with the Chem Sour D's. It's pretty intense growth, not really
sparse, so I know they aren't stretching from too little light, it's just these sativa hybrid genetics
that really blast the plants off. At peak points of these sativa stretch's (weeks 2-4/5) I've recorded
them growing easily 2 inches a day.:shock:

Now the buds should fill out nicely, and we'll all have a good time!
 
Let the good times roll!

Week 6 day 6

If only I lived in Col I'd be there for that interview homie. Can't believe how much of a passion for growing I've developed in the last year.
 
Sink is installed! We finally have running water in the warehouse!

And i installed a pressurized pre rinse on the sink so i can clean out my
Reservoirs pretty much effortlessly

are those hydrofarm radiant reflectors?

In the warehouse we have Radiants, in my office I have Daystars, and if I would have been
there when they bought the equipment for the warehouse we'd have Daystars in there too...
Along with electronic ballasts and a better arrangement of lights. We will be re arranging the
lights after these plants are chopped.

jus curious as to why you like the daystar better than the radiant as i just ordered a radiant 6'' for my 600w lumatek to light my 5x5 secret jardin tent, i thought the radiant would have a better square footprint. what are your thoughts? do you think the 600w in the radiant will be able to spread enough light through the entire 5x5? just really wanted to ask you as you have experience with this product.

On the contrary, the slimmer tighter fit of the Daystar around the bulb actually "throws" the light
and creates broader spread, whereas the Radiant, being so large "catches" the light and directs it
downward. So if lightspread is the want, Daystar is your hood, if you are more for the penetration,
Radiant is your hood.

Edit:
In the charts I see from Hydrofarm, the Daystar has almost twice the spread.

thats interesting, makes since. do you think im going to have enough spread for a 5x5 tent? what kind of spread do you get with your radiants
 
Should be fine, although when i ran in a 5x5 tent i had 2 600 watts in daystars...

But with one 600 you should be hittin a pound in there.
 
im thinking i mite jus go with a 4x4 tent right now with the 600w and reflector i have and then upgrade to another 4x4 tent and another 600w later. that way i can have two diff grows goin and two diff strains. instead of having to buy another 600 if i were to get a 5x5 to adequately light it.

If you got the space, drop the grow tent and blow up the room.
 
im working in an approx. a 10x30 foot insulated building but it has no heat. and it gets down to the 30's pretty often at night outside in winter. i thought the tent might be a good way of holding in heat and have a closed environment. anyway i could close off a section of the room?
