nice harvest kaze, is that just one plant?

Heres my dual 150w hps set up. I've made remote ballasts out of them. I live in an apartment so, its got to be somewhat stealthy (when visitors come). Veg chamber is in another room.

Hey bro,

What was your yield like? I am doing my first ever grow and I am using a 150w HPS. I have one "Blue Cheese" in hydro and one "The Church" in a pot (non soil) but I am thinking a lot of the white widow and so was wondering what sort of yield you were able to get. Here are some pics (16 days flowering now).

Thanks.

Yes this is from one plant I held it in Veg for a while under CFL before moving it into Flower on the HPS... It turned out very nice.

I'm in the process of constructing a new grow area for the next round with a dual light system....




Peace

I did not weigh the nugs before starting the curing process. When I transfer them into jars I will weigh it then. This is my first grow so I am no good at estimating.

Have a look at th pics and take a guess.

Sorry about that.

Holler! Finally back in SF after a mammoth trip away with work..

You guys n gals been keepin y'selves entertained!?!?

ok heres the latest pics of the "rescue" grow (see page 122 for previous pix)

They got a whole lot healthier eventually, although i had to keep a constant eye on everything in the cab to keep them happy.
We all knew they were never gonna yield massive amounts, but they have certainly grown some nice tennis ball sized nugs on the clone, and the other indica has a dense as hell coke can sized main cola,and a bunch of smaller sized nugs below.
As i said earlier in the thread, i never intended to grow these 2, but after i saw the shitty condition my buddy had gotten them into, and decided if nothing else, i'd get some good indi smoke, and maybe show a few ppl that even the sickest and most abused plants can put out a decent amount of good bud..

The indica clone (left) and the the other indica mother

the Auto ECSD x UK Cheese seedlings, first preflowers showed after 15days, more ecsdxchees in peat pots..

here's a coupla more up to date pix..

the indica clone - bout 2 wks to go before harvest



One of the Auto ECSD x UK cheese seedlings at end of 1st wk of flowering, there are another 6 of these,5 fems and 1 male.


stil havent decided if i wanna go for fem or reg seed...gotta make my mind up in the next day or so..

MMicro, how did the Autos go under the 1kW?

Not looking to bad there Frosty

i'm still suprised they even flowered after the ill treatment they'd had at my buddys.

hey frosty how long did you veg those?

K heres the most recent pix of my Auto ECSDxCHEESE
As you can see they are pretty consistent in their height, since i've been breeding my own auto strains these in particular never exceed 2.5ft in full bloom.
Now ending their first wk of real flowering, should pack on a shitload of weight again over the next few wks..

I also noticed a coupla others(1fem,1male) in my main Grow space that showed sex after 9days from seed, i hope to cross these...
I figure if they show sex 2wks earlier than the rest of my autos, their genes may poss reduce the overall growth period of my autos to around 6-7wks seed to harvest. now that would be one hella fast strain.


These are 11 days old


At end of 1st wk of flower -Starting to get a lil more bushy,


Typical examples of how they start out....approx 18" from canopy to pots


As with most Autos strains they are highly sensitive to high nute levels, the next trick is finding out thelimits of these without frying the shit outta them.
I'll stick with my usual schedule, and tweak it as necessary..

k i'm out...
go steady gang

Frosty

Bob, i dont veg my stuff in the 150 cab, i run it 12/12 from seed.
I've found that the ideal way to grow in the dimensions of my cab, refer to page 2 for full details..
Most strains do real nice in there but Pure sativas can be a handful still, especially my grapefruit, which always needs hella LST,as it always ends up around 4.5 ft in height, and it flowers for like 16wks..last grapefruit i had in there yielded a lil over 3.5oz dry.

Hopefully someone here can help me, im not getting any responses at the plant problems threads. I have three plants that are 3 weeks in veg under a 150w HPS in a cooltube. 2 out of the three plants have some leaves that are curling upwards on the serated edges. Now my first thought was heat stress but my temps at the canopy average about 76 and dont ever reach 80. The humidity averages 40-50%. I really have not seen this in previous grows and dont see anything in the sick plant guides. Im hoping the pic shows the problem enough. Any opinions? Thanks
