Pineapple express Maine cross

Some Bud shots at 7 weeks of this pineapple express strain that's taken me two grows to figure out. Bred in Maine. There about 7 weeks in pictures, I lost my scope and alot of other equipment a while back, just got back into growing again these are the results, only had 250w mh and 150w hps over about 15 sq ft 6 plants, just wasn't cutting it so 3 got cut at 4 weeks and it lead to some real improvements in the remaining 3, incredibly low nutrient threshold. Won't be heavy yielders but some decent Bud. But no scope means I'll be guessing this harvest, all opinions are welcome.

where is the bud at man, I've got more bud in 3 weeks then what you got there isn't even going to be anything after it drys, throw them in the trash bro and start over!

A little harsh, but point well made. For 7 weeks into flowering those girls have basically nothing going for them. In the first pic, that nug looks like a piece of popcorn near your hand. Can we get some side shots? maybe a pic of the entire room?

Just not a heavyweight strain, to large of a space for my lights, had a couple issues, only vegged for 2 weeks. I'll pull around 3 zips, which is fine for now, completely rebuilding after this grow camera does make them look smaller than they are and there very dense. Lights off atm

Your lights just keep them alive. You need a 600.

Ya I know tell me about it, went about using the little bit of equipment indid have completely the wrong way stuffed 6 plants where there should have only been three heavily topped decent bushes, should have constructed a fourth wall for reflective surface which I didn't do, and I lost alot of the little light I had because of it. would've liked to veg them longer as well, but I'll make hash out of probably one and a half of the plants anyway, resin production was outstanding, weight was alot to do with environmental and a couple fuck ups on my part. I plan on building indoor no till beds with seeds planted accordingly placed apart with 1000w hps bare bulbs down the middle of the entire bed, ovular cage surrounding bulbs in the middle of the beds with a horizontal cage going down the bed to train the outer branches, two rails on outer edges of cage, and cobs with centrally located drivers and the LEDs placed and wired threw the walls according to PAR of plant placement. Would in theory like to achieve optimal par of around 1950 if I could but that's still a few months away, completely getting and rebuilding my garage. After all my equient got taken I didn't have the resources to rebuild, not that I've ever worked with what I'm hoping to build, but I've written up all the prints and stuff, just saving the last bit of my big investment.

i've seen people pull a pound from a single plant grown under a 250 and a few cfls, total non sense..

There is absolutely ways to do it, but not the way I did this grow, less plants more topping period should known better, it was mostly a backwoods redneck Maine grow, but I'll have some hash and some pretty decent Bud even if its just enough to get by so fuck it. I didn't post to make anyone aw from weight, but the trichomes of this p.e cross I found pretty impressive especially given the small amount of buds. Hard as a rock though.
