Day 71 from seed - first night with the 400w HPS :D

You guys think they'll fatten up alot more with that 400w? They've got another 2-4 weeks ahead of them. Should be nice:)
(ALSO) I'm able to get that cooltube closer than I had the 150w. So that's almost 4x the light and about 1/3 closer... Hope they like that.

You will pleased, the difference in lower bud development and density will impress you. Just wait till you run it a whole cycle, I made that same jump at one point (150 to 400) then I bought a 1k after running the 400 two grows and now I'm a light whore after witnessing the difference, if I have space and heat control I add light lol.

Haha, yeah man that'll be me soon enough. I'd love to have the space+vent for a 1k watt but i'll have to wait.
Cant wait to veg the seeds from attitude under the MH

What are the temps like now a days bro? Ad are you only running the 400w now? :joint:
Temps are 80-83 day's, i'll post another update, lemme take some pictures real quick. and no i'm not using the 400w at the moment, the ballast crapped out on me the next morning. So the ballast is currently being shipped back for a replacement, I have my 150w about 6 inches from canopy now until the ballast comes in then it's all systems go man.


>Stay tuned, updating soon.

Damn homie...You got a link for the ballast? Curious what kind it was bro...But damn that's unfortunate...If you like me you check tracking everyday and hate waiting lol...That 400w would've done you something NICE right about now but heyy, you were good before you got it, so technically ain't shit change ha.
And 80-83 is wassup. I'm at about 80 with all that lights I have...A duct fan pulling air out will heal you alot bro, and it's a cheao fix. I got an 8" duct fan, speed control and the duct for about $75

Link for the ballast is right here > http://www.ipowergrowlight.com/1411/ipower-grow-lights-dimmable-electronic-hid-ballast-400w.html
Yeah, it sucks but the dude didnt hesitate at all to let me send it back for a replacement so i'm not too worried about it. And shit, by the time it gets back it'll still have a week left, and if not i'll give it a week under the 400w anyway haha.

& +rep for tracking that shit daily lol, i'm on my toes 24/7 until that shit hits my doorstep bongsmilie

Update: Day :leaf:73:leaf:
Background: veg'd with 150w HPS
flowered with 150w HPS
home mixed soil planted in 1gal pots
grown from seed... ummm i think thats it

So like I mentioned earlier, my ballast was a dud and i'm getting a replacement...
My 400w will have to sit and wait until it's usable again :-( photo 3.JPG

But there's no point getting bent out of shape about it, & I figured out how to get my 150w closer to the canopy with less heat. So it will do just fine until my new ballast comes in.
As far as news goes, It'll be 7 weeks on the 16th, and next run i've decided to grow out my last blue dream seed along with the white widow and la confidential under the 400w MH.. Just hoping to get that DANK ass pheno under that light.
And I think i'll be making a new account, this ones full of dumb shit i've posted over the past few months... So if I do end up making a new one i'll post my new username & hit all the regulars up. But I probably wont switch until I dry this harvest out.

But enough bullshit, here's the pics

Plant 1 - Very fast growing plant, fattest buds in the closet.
photo 1.JPGphoto 2.JPGphoto 3.JPGphoto 4.JPGphoto 5.JPG

Plant 2 - Most "fucked with" plant, fan fell on it, took off a few bud sites in the middle of flowering. BUT by far the DANKEST buds in the closet.
photo 1.JPGphoto 2.JPGphoto 3.JPGphoto 4.JPGphoto 5.JPG

& Plant 3 - Most stretched plant during flowering, only lost one of the main colas on this one due to shitty attempt at super croping. But it's getting suprisingly crystally.. I dont know why I thought it would turn out shit quality, but it's on it's come up. The BLUE-ist buds in the closet.

NOT HOT. You can keep it 4-6 inches over the pants if you have a fan blowing...I'm running 2 of them, a 380w T5HO and like 30 CFLs...Temps are 78-80 with lights on and 70-75 with the lights off

It's funny how your most fucked w/ plan turns out to be the dankest lol. So far it's the same thing w/ me bro.

I think triggering the plants fight response by ravaging it might be some "newer" shit bro. Bcuz I don't see ppl talking about it too much, but I've read recently that the resin is produced most in high altitude dry area yeah, but I think they when you fuck with the plant you force it do survive an adapt.
The plants don't know that we're cutting the leaves and/or branches off. And animals don't like the drunk feeling brought on by THC, so wouldn't it make more since for the plant to produce more THC after you've fucked with it?
Sounds like it to me :joint:

looks like you are down to the home stretch. not bad for 3 plants with only 150 watts. the first one I don't see many trics (probably just not a great pheno) but the other 2 look like winners.
