and the NL's lol pretty much all of them look great for the setup and I think that tent size was perfect for that light.. those are shaping in to some of the better looking plants I have seen under a 400.. and Ive seen alot of grows!

Steez your bubba is gonna be LOADED .. mark it ! by loaded I dont mean a HUGE yield .. but more importantly .. quality dense nugs.. The bud spacing is so tight in the next month its gonna be SOLID
Good to hear my friend, thats the only plant I want to smoke so quality over quantity anyways! ahhhhhhhhhh.


and just read your other post! awuh I feel like I wanna cry now alotaball, stop it!

Shit it might yield real well tool... just hard to guess that you know... but whatever it does yield... looks like its gonna be a+

Remember I told you about the House-Garden Im playing with .... I think I liked the General Hydro better.. Im gonna keep trying to mess around with it and give it a fair chance.. but with the gh.. I never had yellowing or def or anything .. and the H&G is already looking a little more yellow and sad ect.. then the girl right next to it im feeding GH . We will see.

Look at my plants, i'm a first time grower who didn't even know where to buy a PH Meter....
General Hydroponics has been nice to me all the way through, not once have I had to emergency flush my plants.

Ya thats how it was with mine.. always sooo green and perfect.. almost no yellowing even at harvest.. So .. we will see im gonna give the h&g stuff a fighting chance .. but im only using it on a couple plants.. I cant go away from the GH stuff till I KNOW something is better.. just because it has worked so well

I might get away from the Humboldt stuff after this grow. The plants haven't responded all that well to it. If you're both using GH then I'd say it's done well for you. Before I bought the HB I almost got talked into H & G. I just didn't want to spend that much money on nutes for my first grow. I'm curious to see how your H & G ladies come out.

Nice OG alotaball... I've been running H & G Aqua Flakes along with most of the adds....The soil run I had I used some very cheap nutes, Jacks Pro, it worked fine but something was way off, my yield...lol So back to Aqua Flakes and things are back to exploding....Super clean too, I dont flush at all unless I see or smell a problem period... I've had a couple whole runs with only flushing with Clearex at chop...And you've seen my results... Just though I'd help hijack SteeZz's thread..

Hey SteeZz dont be in to big a hurry for the bigger bulb... If your temps are in line with the 400 you might run it a while, I've got my hands full getting them back down.....Turned out my digital thermometer batteries were going bad giving false readings.....I was at 100 and didn't know for a little while...I have become an expert at taking temp readings...The 600 is hotter for sure......

Haha nahh, 400 isn't me man.. I mean a 400W light I would say is even too much for a personal grower...

but i'm in it for the ounce colas and six foot plants.
I dont want to have to train my plants you know?


got a little scared this morning, wasnt home all day yesterday and my desert dream was on day 4-5 of no water.. she usually goes 3 at the most.
anyways woke up this morning opened my tent and didnt even recognize it, she lost all her perkiness and was droopy like about to die.

Got her nutrients, molasses, and all the good stuff and shes already perkin back up.
also the seedling got nutes.

And a good example of how big the top circumference is on the master bubba...
Half dollar coin is about the right width.

Just wanted to give you a heads up on the heat difference....I let my moms get droopy often....probably not the best thing...lol

Are you talking about giving your 12/12 nutes?
Yea, the 12/12 from seed. I gave her some more transition nutes since I just put her in a 3gal pot, once I see more flowering going on i'll bump it up.

This is the FIRST time any of my plants got droopy to this extent... she was literally like falling over, never going to happen again.

You have no idea, I woke up.. looked at the time.. 9:18... FUCK, three hours of lights on already...and I didnt get to see what they looked like all day during their lights on the day prior and before lights off so I was clueless.
open my tent and had to literally rub my eyes because I couldnt identify my desert dream plant, my northern lights plant was all perky and fucking loving life.
but the desert dream was like the dunce cap kid in the corner.
I hurried grabbed all my nutes, molasses, ph meter, 5gal jug of RO water hurried into the bathroom.
Didnt even wait for nutes, poured straight RO water over her while I got nutes ready.
Then gave her a good feeding... and now she seems fine, just dont want to push it like that anymore... plants normally don't look that way lol.

the void and pandoras box are the only two seeds ill tell you to get besides agent orange and ace of spaces, ill be more than happy to throw you money when you do get them going to compensate but im 100% sure you wont be mad from getting those, i just didnt want to order 2 seeds and pay 60$ you know? I would rather wait for you to order seeds and have like a batch we order together and give you some money cause it seems pointless to pay for the insurance and shipping and all that bullshit for 2 seeds.

you let me know! I will seriously give you the cash for the seeds!
