I can't agree with the yield, I loaned a buddy my old 250 and he yielded 178.2 grams from a single chocolate rain plant!

Hey what's up dudes? I harvested my bagseed tonight. I chopped it at day 56, I had it in 11/12 for the last 4 weeks because I found out it was seeded & wanted to finish it up as soon as possible. I'm going outdoors for the summer, just planted 4 beans today, 2 herijuana and 2 sour diesel.. Wish me luck dudes, be back to the 250 in the fall/winter... In case anybody is curious, the bud smells like the strain "Pot of Gold" which is a cross of Hindu Kush & Skunk, 3 gallon pot container, topped once, no bottled nutes went into this grow, I brewed compost tea a few times to aid the decomposition of the organic soil amendments I top dressed with, I burned the shit out of her when I tried to make a "nutrient tea" (which I now advise staying away from unless your plant clearly looks hungry, than leaving it alone is usually your best option) I'm working on my own "super soil" type mix with less than half the ingredients, for less than half the money.. This grow I used amended bagged soil, next time I'm making my own mix so I hope to have no nutrient burning... In case anybody was curious the soil was Dr earth's bagged soil, it needed extra drainage, I didn't know it would but it did and my soil microbes suffered (went anaerobic on me and started stinking) however after applying the activated compost tea (1/2 cup worm castings, 1 gallon dechlorinated water & teaspoon of molasses brewed for 24-36 hours) things really started improving and fattening out in the end.. The good microbes "won" essentially but I will be checking the roots tomorrow for signs of damage... I'll report back in a couple weeks with dry weight, peace

Complaints of low yield.... I've yielded high from 250w of CFL goodness no complaints with that, now with a more powerful light I currently don't have any complaints :D

Nice harvest!

Good luck with the outdoor! I wish our weather wasn't so shit so I could do 1 monster plant outside... plus my garden is full of bloody greenfly and snails who aparently eat the shit out of weed plants, well the baby ones anyway, left a small plant out overnight and it got almost killed by the fuckers...

Thats .7 gram per watt, that is really good, i am aiming for .6 :)

I'm hoping for 1g + per watt :D in a dished ScrOG which would make about 8 ounces, I have 4 plants (3 topped for 4 cola's and 1 rooted clone).

My recent grows I've gotten 3 oz's off 1 plant using 250w of CFL, and 3 of these plants have a larger footprint on the screen than my previous grow sooo here's hoping I get 3oz per topped plant and say .5-1oz off the clone giving a total of 9.5-10oz touch wood XD

Ya we have those problems too outdoors, I live in the frigid north, what I do is I start them off indoors a couple weeks before putting them outside.. I also use containers this year so I can move the plants to force them to flower early

Ace very nice top/lst job there man +rep
noob187 also good job man keep it up

heres some pics of my plants blueberry haze@50 days flower. most trics are cloudy just a few starting to turn amber. im definitely gonna chop at 8weeks. i learned alot from first run like get better soil and veg alot longer. also the first run was mainly to see if i could contain the stank which i did. also i think i have real low humidity but i have no way to check it so i ordered a thermometer / hygrometer from ebay. my next run will be 2 blueberry 4zips is my goal. good luck guys and cant wait to try it in a few weeks.

smoking a blunt of power with 1/2g of power wax! about to be stuck for a couple hours!and hitting some bluelarry wax out of the omicron vape pen.if you smoke concentrates and dont have a vape pen get one. 1 g of wax in the vape pen last easily 1.5 months hitting it everyday.

Damn that's ridiculous! might have to invest and actually make some wax this go round XD

How do you find those portable vapes? I just been looking into them lately and there's quite a lot of choice lol.

Starting up my second grow! Wanted to do some sativa doms and originally was going to do trainwreck and og kush. Unfortunately the og cuttings had not put roots down yet, so I am going with blueberry and trainwreck. Both are sativa dom and should finish around 9-12 weeks. Went with bigger hempy buckets this time, they are almost the same height but have 80% more volume, and made my screens slightly bigger by about 20-30%.

Some pics of the finished bud from my last grow with a weeks cure on it and then a pic of my new ladies freshly transplanted into their new hempy homes.

they have them in the medclubs around me, the omicron i got mine a few months back.it was $80 and came with a unfilled cartridge.i like the omicron because it is refillable,others are not you have to buy the filled cart from the dispensaries for around $50.i just make my own wax or just buy some and refill it myself.in the few months i had it i have only filled it 2 times.i havent checked into the newest ones so i dont know if they are any better, also got to love the fact you can use them just about anywhere, if your outside no one would be able to smell it.i have used mine indoors at work and no even notices.
