That made me think of something related to math. I love math... went to grad school for math (a couple classes and a thesis short of a degree). Anyways, something wild is that math minds are young. Like tennis or something. When you are 30 you are well past your prime. Supposedly all the major math breakthroughs have been by kids in their young 20's.

But yeah, I agree somewhat with what you are saying. I think an argument could be made that capitalism pushes progress, but don't look to me for that stance. I think those things suffer because of governmental structures we have in place. But I'm sure those structures exist because of the type of society we are in. Blah blah... it's starting to sound like I think I know what I'm talking about. That's dangerous lol. I don't spend a lot of time reading up on what's really going on out there. I just like to analyze it from my little view in my cabin.

My computer that I usually use is almost back in service. I really want to get it up to post my pics.

Yes! Less politics and philosophy and more pr0n dammit!! lol

I think we need both a free market system and a social net to help those who truly need it. If the rich would just realize how much more economical it would be to take care of our poor and sick rather that just leave them alone. I have a lot less problem giving my taxes to social programs than tax breaks for businesses and such. It's not capitalism I'm against. It's the uncontrolled and unregulated corporatization of it that is bad.

Just popping in as your daily reminder. ;)

Thanks a lot AMC. There are 10 plant sites. Only 6 of them really produce big, the 4 in the corners do alright, but usually they are shaded out. I have run this 4 times now (if i'm counting right), and I would say my average is right at a pound. That is with a 1000w hps. And the dimensions of the closet are 2' x 3'... it's around 0.7 square meters.

I think I could push 1.5 pounds with the right strain (dog), a good veg time, and proper attention. I got 18 or 20 oz on my sour kush grow, the first of the two level grows. The place was full of plant/ bud.

Thanks for popping in.

thats a nice yeild in that much space :clap:. does the heat not become a problem? can imaging there would be alot of training and trimming needed throughout the grow, im thinking of something along the same lines when im in the new house.

thanks again. :) the heat is near the edge most times, but i live in a cool place, and have a big fan. There is a 435 cfm 6" fan pulling over the 1k, and cycling the closet air. The real key of the operation is keeping the water cool. that's why the table i have in there. The heat in the grow space doesn't affect the res space at all. so the water stays cool (sub 70f / 21c), where as the grow space is usually around 80f / 26-29c.

and as for the trimming and training, I don't do a whole lot. I trimmed them up a little yesterday, and will probably do that one ore time (removing less this time i'm sure). I do this early in flower so I can see what bud sites are developing and which are teeny tiny and should be plucked. As for training, about the same. I will train them in the next few days, and that will be it for the most part. i will probably do either one more little training session in a week or so... or just train back a branch or two here or there. But it's not much.

Don't know if you saw my casey jones scrog... that was a TON of training. I learned my lesson with that. This set up the plants don't get all that big and there isn't much room to begin with, so training is pretty easy. PRetty much just train branches back to the screen with zip ties, and when there is no more room, i cut the smallest branches off (not many, to none usually).

It's a low stress system (On the grower that is). I"ve left it for 14 days once without the closet door being opened and things were alright. Things would be even easier if I would just run 6 plants instead of the 10. not sure why I don't remember that when getting clones and such.

Speaking of it... do you guys thing there is any point to removing a plant or two? The one in the bottom right corner is so burried it may give me 5 grams. My thinking is that's 5 grams i wouldn't get if i pulled it.... but does anyone see a reason to remove it?

Cool thanks. I am going to need an extra 5 grams soon. i'm running really low. YIKES!!! No worries though, i got a lot of hash to hold me over. But man am I going to appreciate this harvest soooooooooooooooooooooo SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much. It will almost be like the first harvest... except this time i know how good it's going to be. Oh man i can't wait. looking around Christmas. Merry Christmas indeed Mr. Lawrence. (lol anyone know that reference... i didn't, i looked it up)

No doubt there's truth in what you said jig. But in a capitalist society (not saying anything else is better) money makes the world go round. Then people miss out on truly amazing things, such as philosophy, education, etc. Just imagine how much further we would be mathematically without a capitalist drive and focused more on intellectual development. Just my 2 cents.

My Youngest daughters school had some of the worsdt test scores eyc...and they went and cut out the after school tutoring program, and next yr they closed the school library.
My oldest is in High School. They are closing her library next yr. WTF is going on here?
I love sports as much as the next guy, but come on!! Did it ever cross your mind to cut PE class or the football team in favor of learning to fucking read!! Where are our priorities?? Its no wonder our education level in the US is so sub-par to even 3rd world countries.
I am losing my pride to be an American!

Ok rant over lol.

Thanks for all the kind words. I definitely think I'm pushing the limits of yield per sq ft. I honestly can't imagine having a larger space. I like being super maticulous and a big space would overwhelm me I think.

They are growing a lot each day and drinking a LOT of water. These are going to be some thirsty chicks.

Hope every one had a happy and safe halloween.

@jig - first and foremost, those girlies look awesome man. I think you could probably do great in a larger space but you certainly know your stress thresholds better than I do. Hahah. Basically you have the skills to do it.

@dman - I don't necessarily think spending the wealthy's cash to poorer people is a bad thing but it shouldn't be forced either. Corporations and the rich actually already support the poorer classes in the US. They're taxed at higher rates. PM me if you wanna talk further don't wanna jack jigs thread especially with how great his girls are looking.

@bassman - the education in this country is 2nd rate at best. It conforms to the average child and pushes the agenda of making money/job preparation instead of the development of the child. I played football in high school and I would trade it any day of the week for a better education than I received. Luckily though I was a quick learner and am well learned (mostly to me taking my education into my own hands). Rant done? Yea. Hahah.

Sorry jig.

and how is your little space going these days? :fire: I really do appreciate your brand of support D. When I'm working in the new 8x8 grow room, pissed off I have so many plants I'll think of you.

In fact I think of you often mate. Guess you been busy, have missed seeing you around the boards.

^^^THis is my secret. I always had great teachers, but they were limited by the system. At some point I figured out the best way to learn something is to learn it flat out. Teacher or no teacher, just go educate yourself. THe internet sure makes it easier. No need to hang out in the library all the time (thought there is nothing wrong with that). ((well there would be something wrong if the library is fucking shut down)) Anyways, we got my wife looking out for california libraries, so no need to worry too much about them lol.

And no need to apologize. As long as no one starts fighting with each other it's all good.

I'm stressing this mornning a little. The past two days I've woke up about 2 hours earlier than the alarm was set for (wife's alarm, i don't use one). And when I wake up I can't stop thinking about my buddy in prison. I wonder if he's getting moved soon. He was picked up in Cali, but we outsource our prisoners, so he has been in Arizona for the past 5 or so years. With release date coming up they will move him back to cali to be 're-integrated' to the california population. Whatever the fuck that means. It sucks for him becuase he is in a private correctional facility in AZ. Shit is lush (for a prison). They can have xbox and get cable. The gaurds are civilians, and the facility is privately owned so it is open for lawsuits. So there isn't mistreatment really by the gaurds. Not quite the same as state prison. :(

I hope my buddy is alright.

About the plants.... the preflowers are starting to look like preflowers and not just clumps of plant (like the last pictures). Got little hairs coming on. Exciting times in the closet!!!
