Hey SG, way to grow mate.
You've filled out those screen nicely with some really choice buds.
They look really good.
Well done.

Thanks guys. I am really happy. more pics to come soon. The flouro cab looks close, a grow buddy came over with a "Sour Berry" Clone and agreed that those are damn near done. I think I am scheduling the chop on that cab for wed night. The hps cab will go through till the weekend and then it will get chopped. At this point all they are getting is water. :-)
 
Here are some pics from the hps parabolic scrog last night. Next update will probably be Thursday and then this weekend. Enjoy!

Thanks Gypsy. I haven't been able to be on a lot... barely keeping my journal up, but at least I keep updating. This batch is great and I am really happy. I know have SourBerry, PPP, Blue Mystic and one unknown for the next round. The very next time will be flouro only and then when it cools off again Ill go back to both. Thanks a ton for the support :-)
 
I hear you on the heat...

My house is BLASTED with 24hours of sunlight for a while in the summer...

Radiant heat alone is a bitch...

It'll be good to have -30F air to work with again... I got spoiled last winter...:lol:
 
Wow man your grow looks great. I gotta try this scrog method. How you make your cab, or where did you buy it from? Is it easy to keep it cool?
 
hey someguy, sorry if i missed it but are you flushing already? your buds look more ready than mine, and im thinking bout flushing now. Can you check out my journal? i just updated some pics

I picked up a small storage shed (plastic) lined it with insulation and then foamboard and painted white. I put intake holes for air at the bottom on the back of the cab and then vent plates over the holes on both inside and out. I just basically custom crafted the cabinets. They stay 10-15 dg hotter than ambient air temp with the lights on. If I was to do it again (I will someday) I would air cool the light and then use co2 and a room controller. Almost any cabinet can be turned into a grow cabinet, I recommend the DIY rather than buying premade. Cooling it is an issue when it gets hot, but if you keep the room the cabinet is in well ventilated you probably would not have problems. I could probably do with less light in my space. I get bleaching sometimes.

I just started flushing, this was the second feeding of just water. The flouro is going to get chopped first and then the hps cab... All this week. However, keep in mind I use gravity for two weeks (wks 6-7) which does speed up the finish.

I am on my way to check out your journal. ;)
 
hey some guy u got sum nice lookin shit man u know what u r doin !can u go check out my new thread i just sprouted 12 mixed seeds as a little extra experiment and iam puttin them all in same 5 gal bucket with wire above it goin to get them 7inchs or so and flower them can u take a look and tell me what u think thanks man

Is this what ur talkin about guy ? I hope so , we just bought a bottle today .
Click to expand...

thats the stuff. BE CAREFUL with it! too much is NOT good. here is what I do:

-Prior to doing the gravity early in the 5th week of flower I flush.
-Use 1.5 ml of gravity to one gl of water with no nutrients.
-if plant responds well I do the next feeding with the gravity and ferts at 1/3 strenght.
-I go flush, Gravity, Gravity, Flush, just feed, Gravity, gravity, flush. Should take you through the 5th and 7th week or so. Then I go back to feeding for the 8th week and then flushing the 9th.(all depending on strain)

Keep in mind I am in hempy buckets. Hope this helps. Gravity is great, but must be used with a tempered hand. ;)
 
UPDATE! Harvest at 9weeks in the flouro scrog. Yield was over 300g wet. Prob. 3-4 oz in there, not bad for an experiment. I have some comments on flouro though:

Cons:
~It is possible, but per watt I feel they are less efficient (meaning a hid of similar wattage would do a better job.
~The buds are not as dense really. Some are pretty tight though, but no where near the light penetration of an hid.
~The buds are not as big
~takes more time to mature

Pros:
~less heat issues
~no light bleaching issues
~relatively decent yield for 220w and 3 plants. (73w per plant)
~Really nice looking bud. I think this has to do with having less of a temperature swing.

Enjoy the pics of harvest:
