Great grow S1 - I have a soil grower related question - how do you deal with the runoff from watering? I have a bucket underneath but it is a pain to remove and way to obvious when I walk outside to dump it.
Thanks,
Mo

:leaf::leaf:Man am I tired and achy! I had my cousin and my friend help me harvest today, and it took all of us 5 hours! I am so amazed how fat these buds got! When I undressed these ladies they revealed obese sized thighs and ass! The biggest Donkey dick cola broke while being trimmed and I have a wine bottle as comparison how big these colas are! I am pretty optimistic about the dry weight and I hope it exceeds my expectations! Im so tired I can't really type much, so ill have the pictures do the talking. Psssh, who says LEDs cant grow fat buds!

I don't really have that much runoff when I water my plants. It may be a trickle here and there, but I have a pan underneath that collects the runoff. My dehumidifier really sucks up the remainder moisture from the air.

Hell yea dude, way to go! Can you measure wet weight as well? I like to see how accurate the loss of 60% or so is. If ya don't mind :-)

Buds look incredible. +rep

Not point weighing wet,on average from many many grows you get about 25% of the wet weight when it's dry...plus it's useless wet anyways, not smokable.

Just be patient and weight it dry without stems.

Sorry Guys, I see some of you requesting "wet weight". For me to do that I would have to cut the individual buds off and weigh them, and I would rather have the whole tree dry first. LIke Harrekin said, wet weight is useless and just teases you. So I will do a dry weight weigh in only on Wednesday.

great grow, blackstar rocks even though the actual watt usage at the plug is about 75percent the rated wattage its how LED diodes are operated so they dont burn out.

Happy i went with 1x240watt and 1x500watt, they both go well together, 240 at 12 inches from the canopy and the 500watt at 15inces, which is perfect when going perpetual.

Great nugs you have there man :), happy toking and growing. Peace.

Thanks a lot man! Hope you grow some dank buds with those blackstars! I usually vegg my plants at 10-14 inches away from canopy, and 6 inches away from top of canopy during flowering.

How much are you paying for clones in LA? Wish I had bought Blackstar, but will make do with the GLH's ..
Yes I did have my lights 6 inches away last grow. Yes, these clones do look completely different than my last run. The last run, they were in bad shape from the start. This time around I knew better and picked the healthiest clones available. I really wanted to grow the $100 OG strain, and last run those were the only ones. These clones I bought were already 8-12 inches tall, so I liked how healthy they were.
