I topped my two headbands, and stuck them in Root Riots.
My next harvest should be early to mid march,
then I can flower these headbands out and see if they'll be keepers.

Glad I found this thread, starting up a GL 60 in 3 days.....old phototron user here.....This thread WILL be my BIBLE, great advice from upthearsenal, love the zip tie/screen setup and like your nutes notes.....awesome stuff......BRILLIANT !!!!!!!
I just saw this.. Thanks so much! I really journal this 10% to track info 30% to learn new things and 60% to help folks doing the same thing. When I started every journal was difficult to read and I had to source information for my first grow from dozens of threads.. Very time consuming to say the least.

Im glad you could find this thread and take some information from it!

You guys are welcome to share photos or ask any questions you'd like.. If I can't answer a subscriber to this thread is more than likely to :)

Nice grow sr. Verde, how much are you expecting to yield out of your tent? I plan to get a 600 watt light and a 4x4 tent, if I grow in a party cup sog how much do you think I could yield I was thinking that if people can get an o a plant I can be safe to say I will have maybe 7 grams a cup and I can fit 144 in a 4x4 space, idk do you think that it is possible?
I like your enthusiasm but 144 party cups is not realistic and you would be a slave to your plants. You could use something like half gal milk cartons and do 50 or so and prolly end up with the same yield with half the work.

Hey I got your pm bro, no problemo I would be happy to set you up : !) Talk to ya

I agree. Less is more! Especially with cannabis plants..

I believe i touched on mature plants going into flower vs immature plants going into flower... The mature will do better and yield better...

Thanks so much bro! Great info, I'm kinda a heavy smoker so being able to produce a good amount of high quality cannabis is my goal here and I think with help from this forums members I can do it. Talk to you soon bro thanks,

Starting day 52 later on today.. 26 days left... I think it's safe to say the plant will just be chilling for the rest of the grow with no additional leaf damage.. Flowers look fine, trim should be good enough for some oil. :) I just fed a little, 10-15mL tiger bloom..big bloom.. ill keep bringing the food down and just not feed the last 10 or so days.. with a few flushes between those days..

I'm watching the foliage yellow out very naturally. Love it, it reminds me of fall. :D

On another note, for our next adventure..

I've decided I'm going to start some pineapple express on march 2nd... Germ em, plant em, get them started on a few true sets of leaves under 100w t5... then 14 days later chop down the RP headband (assuming 78 day flower) and then put the pineapple express in the tent under TWO 100w t5s for veg. Hopefully that will make them veg a bit faster.. (I only used one for two plants last time! Dumb! Took too long.)

Pineapple Express is supposedly 50-60 day flowering plants.. So I'm hoping to have meds from that by june for the summer... I'm hoping to avoid running lights in the heat of summer.

Nice choice my friend. I have been growing the PE for 12 rounds, she is my flagship strain. Very stable line from what I have seen too. My pheno is 56 days on the spot pretty much every time. She will need support in flower if your growing heavy colas tho, so stick with scrog or have somethin planned. O and she bushes really nice naturally. Top her once at about 3 weeks veg and then let em ride. How many you planning to do in the GL60? 4 again?

Two sizeable plants is my plan, like this run...

SCROG. I want to make a better screen for the next run... Though the one I'm using now is quite nice..

12 rounds is a lot! Any harvest pics? :D

Some, check out my pic album in the sig. tons of eye candy over the past year or two.

As for the screen, make a PVC one and get the clamps like I do. Then you can drill your own holes, and string it yourself at whatever size you want. I like 2" squares for the GL60. I used Mason string over in the masonry section at lowes/depo, like 500ft is $5 I think. Just make sure you melt the ends with a lighter. It will frey apart if you don't.

Thats hella dope... thats what i was going to set up a 2kw flower garden for.. the space fell through for now im still looking though got the capital for the equip :).

I'll have to comb through your thread to see if you posted any instructions for that.. I'd love to replicate it with the clamps down to a smaller scale :)

Here's my GL60 tent and the screen, you should be able to see the little clamps. They are near the wood working/tool section at the depo. Kinda pricey, but fuck what else u gonna do right lol I think $2eax8 so $16. Other than that you need 1x10ft 3/4" pvc, 4x 3/4" elbows and the 500ft of mason thread.

Day 53 flower

Fed with /gal h2o

Cal Mag 7mL

solution pH @ 6.8

These girls are really taking off now :hump: Late bloomers for sure.





underneath


Some popcorn, still looking real nice.


#2 cola under HPS


They are on schedule for sure though, #2 will get chopped before #1 most likely.. #1 looks to be about a week behind #2 in swelling. Pistils are turning really nice Id say its 25% turned pistils on #2 10% on #1.

Awesome :) Yeah i've been through your thread already I think... when I was eyeing the different 2k journals on RIU & making an equipment list... I was thinking, "man i'm totally going to replicate this guys screen" So it's awesome that it's actually you helping me with this :lol:. :)


Those materials aren't bad! So you cut the PVC into measured sections.. Drill holes 2 inches apart and run the screen like a tennis racket?

Exactly my man. And that's what these forums are all about, helping people learn, sharing ideas, debating ect. Anytime I can help someone out it's a great sense of accomplishment. I'd say for the whole screen your only looking at about 30-35 dollars worth of materials. It will reward you with a even canopy; I'm sure will you yield that much back haha.

edit: Just saw the pics damn they are looking awesome, its like the bud is freaking packed in there lol...you worried about the bottoms not getting enough light? going to do the partial harvest maybe? Just seein what the final plan is here. I'm tellin ya the #2 is where it's at, but let me know your opinion when it's done. Does the #1 or the #2 have more of a fuely smell when u rub the trim leaves?
