250 watt keep it simple ghetto grow - leftover seeds. COBs.

Will you be able to grow if you get over here Grape?
I highly doubt that would be possible. I mean personal growers rarely encounter problems with the law, but I've stayed in places where there was a disdain for privacy and in my mind it's hard to rule out the possibility of a curious land lord. I know that sounds super paranoid and generalizing but you can never be too careful.

It's hard to take a decent picture at the moment. Also the bulb needs cleaning.

Sitting at 5 weeks since the switch. The Blue Kush (right) started showing yellow pistils. She usually finishes in 7 weeks outdoors (light dep) but I have a feeling she might take an extra week or two under the HPS... with higher yield. Purple Bud has been heavily affected by the ph imbalance and she looks very hungry. Still hoping she will turn around. I think she'll be under the bulb for a total of 9 weeks. Or perhaps less who knows.
The little ones look good except for one Mendocino which didn't sprout at all, I tried helping it shed the seed shell but it was dead by then. These things happen and I don't want no runts anyways!! I put the Brainstorm in water yesterday and already has a taproot that's half a CM today. No worries there

Looking good mate, the buds have filled out nicely! What are you expecting to yield from each plant? The purple looks a bit heavier.
So whats the next grow, 1 Mendocino, 1 Brainstorm and 2 Power Kush?

That's a shame mate but I understand completely. If I knew I didn't have 100% privacy then I wouldn't bother at all. Not going to get myself in trouble for a hobby, it's not like I'm making loads of money out of it.

Exactly. I feel like I'm wasting a lot of light so I'll try to fill out the entire tent this time around... so longer veg. I also built a new cab 70x70x120 (cm) that will be strictly for the Brainstorm and I'm thinking of running a 150 watt CMH bulb in there along with the LEDs. I'm running out of space very fast lol but I take comfort thinking this is probably my last grow for a while.
I suspect the Power Kushes are going to be huge. Just like the purple bud... actually I think all of these are just the same... master kush, purple bud, power kush, it's all the same just different seedbank and different name. So many strains so little space so little time

It's hard to tell but on the purple bud those look like 5-7 gram tops... dried and cured... that's just the tops there's no telling what will develop underneath. So I'm guessing at least 40-50 grams from the purple bud. This is pure speculation though

Looking good Grape. Nice to see things moving along. Certainly filling out ok.

Temps have a influence on color change - the cooler the temps the more likely the plant will add color - color is good
Thanks guy for replying the breeder states it turns no matter, but I seen alot of folks that weren't to happy. And I have 1 in soil and 1 in dwc side by side. Ahhh lol

All in all did yours turn "purpy" ish
This is my fourth Purple Bud. Two of them were outside and one under LEDs. This one, under the HPS, is the only one that showed any sign of purple. And it's on the leaves not on the bud (not yet at least). Which leads me to believe it's nothing to do with genetics but the ph imbalance locked out some nutes which made it purple. I am by no means an expert but the whole plant turning purple is just breeder bollocks
