The screen is 4' x 3.5'. The light has a glass cover with a continuous exhaust so I have kept it as close as 12".

I really don't know what I will yield. The mom was one plant that I cropped to make two main colas. She vegged for 4 or 5 weeks before I flowered her. These girls have only 3 weeks, but they started from clone not seed. Momma yielded 160g under a 400W. These girls are under a 1000W. I would love to get 150g off of each of these girls, but I would be pleased with 110g to 130g per plant.

I'm not sure about a 600W... its 40% less wattage but I think not 40% less bud. It may be preffered to a 1000W because its cooler and cheaper but still grows good bud.

whats the grow space 5x5? how far u keep the 1000w from the plants 18"?
you think u could get a similar amount of end product using a 600w-hps in a 4x4?

Hi, I was getting up to date on your journal, nice work. I was curious if you have flowered the white rhino yet. I have 2 that are 8 weeks into flowering. They are 3 feet tall and each have grown a single bud about 12 inches tall and about the girth of your fists...sorry no pics but the crystals have not been that abundant, like white widow is, although the last week there is a big improvement. I'm curious how long this will take. Have you dealt with any of this yet with the white rhino?? Thanks

Yeah... I have been watching the triches and only a few are amber. I started flushing two days ago. I think the girls are ready to finish up even if the triches haven't quite gone amber. Thanks for checking out the grow.

OK... I can't wait any longer :) so I started flushing with fresh water. I am going to go for one week on fresh water and then use some FloraKleen and flush for 3 days. Target harvest date is Sept. 1st.

3 days drying in a dark room that is around 68º F and 50% RH. Then trimmed and into the glass jars for 10-14 days to cure. Ready to smoke on 9/14/08.

Here are some photos from yesterday. Notice the horns growing out of the main colas. She is a hermie and there have been tiny male flowers popping out on the horns. I just pinch them off a little and let 'em grow.

Let me know what you think...

I think she is genetically hermaphrodite because this is the third time I have cloned the mother and they were all hermaphrodites. If it was stress then it should have only been on the first grow.

Why do you think she turned hermie? Stress related?

I will no doubt... I am tempted to sneak a little bud off to dry and smoke. Fortunately, I have some of the last round still around ;)
