    First Grow: DR40 Grow Tent, 150 Watt HPS, Hempy Bucket, White Widow

    Believe it or not, the LA Con was only flowered for 6 weeks and four days. I was told it would be anywhere from 45-55 for flower; for me it took 46 days of flower to hit 50/50 milky/amber trichomes (I'm more a head-high, than a stoned, type of smoker). It's in the dark right now, or else I'd...

    It's in the photos... That's why I took those ones of the top of the cabinet. You can see clearly that it's a store-bought air filter, just have a couple of those.

    So the trichomes on the LA Con look just about ready to harvest... Which is unusual considering she should have another week to go till 60/40. BUT, it looks like (almost more than half) of them are just about amber. The rest of them are clear, and some of them a really, really deep amber...

    I don't like having to run the HPS for 24 hours, it gets hot. Also, the spectrum of light that it puts out isn't ideal for the veg stage of growth, it's too red (so to speak). It's just like the sun... in the late summer months the light that hits the Earth is more red at that time, and so...

    I use CFLs for VEG, but right before the switch I start using a combo of them both. Then for the first couple weeks of flower I leave a low power CFL in there. But it's not for light, it's for color spectrum. I figure the extra color spectrum couldn't hurt, only help during stretch periods...

    That's the one of the filters in the picture. I have smaller filter units in each tent as well... And a bottle of ONA. So the smell is cleaned up inside the tent, then exhausted into that area where it is trapped and filtered again... They work surprisingly well, and have their own fans in...

    @tommiD, will do!!! So here are some pics of how I setup my closet... My two DR40s, my fans, and how they sit in the closet. Here is a picture of the tents and the towels I have partitioning-off the upper portion of the closet for the exhaust. The second one is of the "curtains" pulled back...

    I beg to differ... the insulation and ducting helps TREMENDOUSLY. The trick isn't just to wrap it around the fan, but to use the insulation to reduce the size of the outlet exhaust, (to taper it, like an exahust in a car), so that the sound is bounced and absorbed before exiting. On a fan, the...

    See the pics I have of my fan on the outside... What I would do, if I were to do this over, is get a 6" inch fan and carbon filter combo, and mount the fan anywhere in the closet and just run hose to the exhaust port. I have two of these, so I would probably actually run them into a y-adapter...

    Knowing what I know now, I think it's better to over-do something than to under-do it... That being the case I'd go with the six if you weren't sure, that way if you ever expand your grow, you got it covered. Running the tents in a closet or wardrobe can be tricky, depending on how much...

    Got some weed-cloth at the hardware store today. I'm going to use it to line the 2-liter bottles with, that way when they hit the sides of the bucket, they won't start turning and twisting, but will rather stop and grow in another direction (basically I'm using the cloth to make a homemade...

    Basically, once the tops are established, however long each of the stems are for those tops, you can count on those trippling. So if you have a main stalk of 8 inches tall, bent it down so the other tops could pop-up, each one of those tops grew to two inches, once they flower you could expect...

    My LST'd plants do the exact same thing... There is still a main cola, but the others just about catch up... But with less lower buds. I've been supercropping my Lollipops, and it has been making their main stalk huge!!! They look like Pop-Eyes arms where I pinched them. It definitely helps.

    PS: It's the middle of week four... They are each about 18" tall and are being fed 3/4 strength nutrients and 2ml of Bloombastic per/gallon, every other day. Takes about a cup and a half to get run-off.

    The strength of the branch, and how much bud it can support, comes down to how long you vegged it, and if it stretched or not. Stronger roots, stronger limbs, more support. If they start to bend just tie them to a stick or use some garden wire.
