Good deal! I've got a bonsai afghan kush land race that are supplying a 6 colas sog in next round.
I'm amazed at how calyx are swelling under this array (4-3050's), factoring 55w/chip for 220w total
in 1.8 sf equals flower combustion. Lol.

Wow! Looks like a fantastic result! Was this with the same light as the previous haul? If so, that looks to be quite impressive from around 100w!

Fuck yeah , thats a nice haul for a 100 Watts !

Thanks for the Journal BB , After reading this awhile back and seeing your results I built Me two 3050's. Link is in my sig if you want to check it out. But after 3 weeks now the buds under the 3050's are fatter by far then the buds under my Commercially made grow sun 160. So the grow sun is getting Sold really soon and i have a 3070 already here that needs to be put together. For the Center Piece I ordered a CXA3590 2700k. Mouser has some in stock right now Link http://www.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?R=CXA3590-0000-000R00AD27Fvirtualkey57280000virtualkey941-CXA35900R00AD27F. For some stupid reason i am going to grow legal since i am in Colorado. 3 plants in flower is the legal limit with 6 plants total here. So going to try out a triangle plant config with the 3590 in the center then the 2 3050's and the 3070 will go over each plant towards the outside. I can smell the FAT BUDS burning already ....Not really sure why the hell i want to grow legal. Been smoking since the 70's and never really gave a shit if i was breaking the law. I guess it is just be cause i can ...

Quick Update

Here she is at the start of day 8 of 12/12. Just got her first full flower feeding as last feedings were transition feedings.

Let the stretch commence and may she be filled with long dense colas!

View attachment 2870455

P.S. She already stinks to high hell and I can't imagine how she'll stink in a few weeks, so I bought one of these AAP-50 (http://www.amazon.com/AAP-50-Plug-In-Adjustable-Purifier/dp/B007Y9RBX4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1382706714&sr=8-1&keywords=aap50)

I read some really good reviews on some other grow sites that rave at how well these remove odor and are still safe to run as I know too much ozone is a bad thing.


I'll report back on how the product does in a couple days

Did you put the AAP-50 on the inside of the cabinet or on the outside?

I had the ozone in my living room where you come in the house. I don't think you would want to put it directly in your cabinet. At least outside of the cab. I wouldn't want the ozone to hurt the plants or make them not smell as awesome as they do.

I stopped using it for the C99 as it didn't smell like a truck full of skunks and rotting canellope

I grow hempy style with perlite in the res and the medium is a 70/30 mixture of perlite and coco.

I use the complete gh floranova expert drain to waste lineup with reverse osmosis water.

I do add some cal/mag on my plain water feedings as well.

The great thing about this setup is I can get a huge $20 bag of perlite and a $20 bag of botanicaire coco and they last me a long time using them together.

What else do you use besides gh floranova base nutrient (gro,flower,micro, etc)?

Curious about this as well as I am going to be switching over to perlite and promix bx in 5 gallon hempys to make my life easier. Your results are hard to argue with!

I also use the 3 part gh flora series. As I understand it, both these media a basically inert. If you don't mind, what are your feed schedule and ratios like?

The Flora Series and the Flora Nova are different lines not meant to be used together. Nova is a two part mix you got a bloom and grow. It is the newer of the two products. I guess they found a way to mix in the micro part into the grow without it going bad or something like that. I use the older 3 part series myself , works great. Havent tried the Nova yet but i hear nothing but good stuff about it.

Correct, the Nova products do have the all the trace elements in them already so there is no need for a micro. They do have a 1 year best before date however. That, coupled with the intense mixing required (think a really thick fudge sauce like quality), precipitated the switch for me. The flora line also plays better with drip/high pressure hydroponic systems.

At about 55$ a gallon and without going to solids, the nova series is hard to beat though!
