400 watt 2 liter Hempy SOG

So far since I transplanted the 3rd batch from the cloner into hempy's they have gotten nutes with every watering @ 8-16 lucas ratio 6.0 PH

They were under my T5's for 5 weeks and under the 400 HPS for another week or so.

The leaf are not quite dark green, some fan leaf are a bit yellow.


Watching the color of the leaf is what I am going by to tell if iam feeding right. My first run I over fed a bit the leaf was dark green and some curled slightly. The second run seemed a bit underfed because the fan leaf looked more yellow overall.

For the second run I stuck to a Water, Feed, Water, Feed schedule the entire grow.

For this 3rd rotation I will give water only flushing as I think they are needed.

Ok, its been awhile since last update so here is whats going on with my Hempy SOG


Its day 35 of flower I think, and the hempys have been drinking 8-16 lucas formula with every feeding. So every two days with no water only feedings.

Its winter so the plants drinking a bit less and the hempys are breathing less. Meaning less evaporation of water.


I have all my mothers in the flower area now, 6 of them are 3 weeks behind the rest of the flowering plants.

So there is 42 hempys squeezed under my 400 watt HPS. A few plants at the back left are not getting optimal light. Their leaf are more dark green then the plants directly under the light, so that tells me they need water only feeding.


6 mothers of A are in the very front here, they are not in flower yet. week 1

The rest are 35 days of flower:

Side View:





The 36 clones of "A"

They are in a mix of permlite/verm that I used once before.

I took them out of the bubble cloner about a week ago.

They look a bit hungry to me. So soon iam gonna flush them with nutes. Pots are a bit heavy, they are not drinking alot yet.





I have not done any pruning in the flower area.

Just leaving it alone to see how it does this run.


The clones above have 4 more weeks to sit in the veg area. By then they should be 12 inches and ready to move to flower.


Harvest is a month from today.


After Harvest I will take clones from the ones in veg. Put those cuttings in the bubble cloner in the veg area. At this time I am keeping no mothers.



So its goes:

Take cuttings from 12 inch plant in veg,

Root in cloner for 3 1/2 weeks,

Transplant to hempy and veg for 5 1/2 weeks till 12 inches

Time to ready hempy for flower = 9 weeks, same as my strains flowering time.

amazing. how tall were they at day 35?

Well today the ones in flower now are around 27 inches. Biggest is about 31, its a clone of "A" These are in full flower and are not getting any taller.

My vegging clones are 8 inches. They have 3 weeks left of veg and should be at least 12 by the time i need to clone and flower them.

The new clones are coming along nice.





There are a couple runts in the batch but I will still have enough material to take clones for the next rotation.





These lower branches will be my cuttings and anything I dont use for a clone will be removed.



Here is a Flowering shot on day 44:



Buds are filling in now.

Important Update !

I just got my hands on some Dank Genetics from a friend.

So I am now the caretaker of two White Widow x Durban Poison clones. No more bagseed breeding for me hehe.





They were rooted in an areo cloner and put in this soil to transport.

When I got them they looked like this a bit wilty. I also see spider mites on them and maybe a bit of powdery mildew lol.

So I took them out of the little pots and setup a mini bubble cloner. I have them in quarantine and they are getting a treatment to kill the Mites.

One of them was rooted good, but the other one had a broken taproot.


Here is a sample of what the end product looks like:

So this new Genetics is a Sativa Dominant Hybrid. I am told it roots quick and will stretch. Its flowering time is close to the same as the stuff iam running now.


It gets a bit purple late in flower and looks frosty when done.


Check out some macro shots of that little bud:










The white widow trichrome trait is dominate in this hybrid. See how long the stalks are...



Let it be known as the White Poison

WP for short.

Those are probably some of the kindest macro shots I have ever laid eyes on!!!

Here is my rooted White Poison cut after being put in a Hempy.

Day 1 of Veg



I had both cuts in the mini bubble cloner for a few days and this cuts roots were getting long and it was ready to be transplanted. The other cut however is not rooted yet. I see the white bumps on the stem so its gonna need a few more days in the cloner.

My goal is to grow these up as mothers ASAP, so I can switch over to running just the White Poison in my Hempy SOG.

Congratulations on the new genetics! as always.. looking good. keep up the good work.

Thanks, I am happy to have some good genetics to work with.

The second WP cut is starting to root so by the end of the week it can go in a Hempy too.

Harvest is one and a half weeks away, and the clones in veg are around 11 inches.

Here is a top shot on day 53 right after the light went out:

Just found it and like it, +rep and subscribed.

I respect your desire to push it to the minute, but I personally think you should really get an extra light. Adding more plants might boost your yield marginally, but I think the lack of light will result in lower bud quality, and just imagine the nugs with a 1000W light... Or two . It would pay for itself... As it always does

This run is overcrowded with the extra 6 mothers in flower. And I did not remove most of the branching on the clones. So yea the Canopy is very full.

Next rotation will have 36 hempy's and I plan on removing all the branches. This will help with spacing.

With my 4 x 4 space I could upgrade to a 600 watter, maybe when I get some White Poison cuttings rolling in I will do that. But Id have to start up a new journal then.

Some thing like:

"White Poison 2 liter Hempy SOG"


Ohh yes I have Plans

Click to expand...

I like my 600s... but I use them over 3x3 trays... and I would not want them over anything bigger... 48 single cola lollies per light do it just right for me...

400 watts did ok with just 25 hempys, but now that I have 36 + in flower the edges are not getting good light.

I had to rotate some from the far corners to the middle.

Maybe next run I will flower under a 600 watt.

I just took 40+ cuttings of "A" and put them in the bubble cloner.

Also I removed the other branches on the clones in veg which are now 12 inches tall and ready to be flowered in a day or so.

The 2nd cut of WP has been put in a Hempy to veg and become a mother.

So I have 36 of these ready to go in flower:



You can see all the lower branching is removed.

I just found this thread, great work! Where is everything at now? I'm curious to know how the last harvest weighed out and what changes you may have made to the new batch. How are the new genetics working?
