Big J's LEGAL 1K Watt Mh/HPS Perpetual Closet Grow

There is a thread called: Club 600. We had a photo competition. That thread is where you can vote.

photo competition for what?

For fun? If you mean what the winner gets, it's all in the first post of the thread... check it out. I feel like it's all explained. Not much to say really. Someone thought it would be fun to have a competition. That's really all there is to it.

Not too much to report. Still running around 1100 PPM's @ .5 conversion ([email protected]).

They are looking happy. The tallest one is just over 10" in height.

Starting to get some nice side branching so definitely thinking about flowering sometime within the next 7-14 days.

The center girl in the second pic looks massive compared to the rest. How much do you expect to yield from all those plants?

The pic is slightly deceptive, but yes she is the biggest. It's sort of hard for me to get a good shot of the ones in the back with the ones in the front.

I don't have an expected yield that's realistic. This is the first time I have ever flowered these strains.

However, I am guessing I will get as low as 1/2 and as much as 1 oz per plant. Plus I have 8 big girls in soil in there along the outside of the tray that I will get an ounce per plant at least. 23 total in the tray. So at least 11.5 ounces from the tray, and probably around 8-12 ounces for the soil plants. So I am looking at at least 20 ounces, IMO.

Nice looking kids you got there. Those 3 in the front sure are lagging behind. The ones in the middle more than make up for them though. THen there's the girl all the way on the left looking real nice.

Good work so far bud.

EDIT: I would agree with those estimations. Sounds about right.

Thanks Jig. Yeah, they are lagging behind. They were really small clones and just got put into the system about 2 weeks behind everyone else.

Ok, makes sense now. I thought they were all on the same time frame... wondered how they got so behind. As long as they can get themselves in good light, they should be great.

Good point. Right now they are in excellent light. My tray will fit 36 and I have 23, so I am sure I can space them out sufficiently.

If you look at the front row (4 plants) and the left column (3 plants), they actually all got added to the system 8 days ago.

nice setup bro plants look very healthy

As a student of history, I just wanted to offer some perspective today...

Columbus did not discover America. He found the Bahamas in terms of popular Western thinking. He enlightened an ignorant Europe as to the presence of lands West of the Atlantic Ocean. ...But he did not discover it.

America was already discovered and inhabited by the native peoples that crossed the land bridge between present-day Russia and Alaska, spreading from there to South America in as little as 15,000 years.

There, people had their own customs, beliefs, religions, history, language, and traditions. They were not animals living on some untouched land.

The entire evolutionary history of humanity diverged and then came together once again when East met West. Columbus met his brothers and sisters from antiquity; he stood with them face to face and ignored all that binds us, instead focusing on the superficial traits that historically divide and destroy us for short-lived personal enrichment.

It's a lesson we have yet to learn as a people, as a species: that we are all the same. We all love, hurt, feel fear and joy, value our families, a good conversation...we all seek safety and security, mutual respect and patience, food, shelter, and warmth.

If we ignore this lesson and continue to repeat our past mistakes, we are doomed. We owe it to our children, so that they might have the same chance at a good life we had, to learn this lesson, and apply it's teachings in all we do.

Thanks bro, glad to have you along. Thanks for stopping by.

On another note, I modded my flower tent a bit yesterday. Just some background: I had built myself a nice table out of marine lumber for the tray to sit on. I made a frame out of wood for that. But it's too high up.

I made it when I wasn't vegging my clones, just running lollies into flower. Now that I am vegging, I am running out of room.

So, I went and bought eight 8X6X16" cinder blocks, made a couple stacks, demolished the table-stand, and set the entire table down on those blocks. Now, I am only 16" off the base of the tent at the low point, which gives me a lot more growing room.

I will update with pics within a couple days and you will be able to see what I am describing.

Ok, here is a veg update.

Lots of pics, none of which are excellent in quality.

Sorry folks.

But, hopefully you can get a sense of what I have going on. I have included a full picture so you can see the soil plants vegging alongside the hydro ones.

Let me know what you think!

Thanks Kevin, I am excited to have you along!!

Just as a small update, the room has been flipped to 12/12 as of yesterday. Rez was changed and all of that good stuff! Later on in the week I will do another photo update.

I am also kinda of excited because I have an Autoflowering Dinafem Roadrunner growing now in the veg tent. It's still small, but I am experimenting with the idea of constantly flowering plants in both spaces. 12/12 in one room for strictly flowering plants, and 20/4 for vegging/autoflowering plants.

Sounds good idea mate its what ill have soon enough put links to your thread on anytime on mine mate always welcome..just think of my thread as a bar u stop at on a long journey to have a laugh and reef lol..recharge the batteries haha new updates are on mi thread few pages back...

Can't believe it's really been 6 years since I started out. Shit's crazy.

Love

Time flies, huh.
