Yeah, these are a bitch to get the seven bladers to come out. I did it, though.Grow is looking great man. I see some 7 bladed leaves in there too...

Most strains just go wild in my box and pop seven bladed leaves fairly quickly. I've seen it go into 9 blades and beyond. After the ninth blade, the growth turns inward and so the tenth and eleventh blades point inward. It looks crazy.
Hey, Cheeze. These plants don't grow all crazy at all. They made me earn that seven bladed leaf and there aren't even that many of them. These girls have a very focused manner of growing... they're not all over the place.

Yea i'd have to take your word on it mang, never grown more than 5. But now that I got a veg room... I hope to have many problems with plants that are "too tall."

I probably have a picture of the freakish eleven bladed leaf somewhere. It was the Goliath OG cross plant. This was the same plant that showed four heads per node in early veg. I'm not sure where the photos are, though. My hard drive is a massive archive of pix as you might well imagine.

Blackberry Kush? That's a tricky one.Did I tell you I got blackberry beans on the way?

Hell yeah. They make lovely cigars. But I screwed mine up. It was the only plant Uncle Jin couldn't get a handle on.

I haven't grown it. I am in the middle of a veg for a Burmese Kush, though. Slow veg, I know. I've kept her stunted to allow for the other things to finish. I expect to be able to transplant and flower her in the next month.
It almost seems that my garden is evolving into perpetual status, which is nice.

I've noticed some of the more exotic Kush types require a very specific set of conditions to get them to produce right. Although they do closely resemble OG varieties in veg patterns, during flower they need something else. I found that out when I made the mistake of trying to grow a Blackberry next to an OG. Bad idea. The OG powered up beautifully, while the Blackberry was not happy at all. I'm not even sure OG is even a true Kush.
I could do a perpetual of sorts. The only drawback is that it would be a perpetual power draw, forcing me to vend some to shops to pay the power bill. I'd rather not have that pressure.

I get that, you run with a lot more equipment then we do, which raises the cost quite a bit. I figured we're only paying $14 per month extra then we were paying before when we using only CFL. I'm sure that chiller, the AC, and the other doo-dads make it pretty expensive.

Standby for epic blackberry grow then... I'm going to make some huge buds.

Yeah, it's the 1000w hid and the ac mostly. It jacks my power bill pretty good. I can still afford it, though, without having to sell any of my harvest.
Alright, that should be interesting to see. Keep temps cool to bring out purps.

Here we go. These are very graceful ladies.
An impressive trio hiding in the back.
These are really beautiful, Cheeze. I tip my hat to you, sir.
This update is dedicated to the man known only as 323cheezy...
And the overhead shots. Do it.
It's packing on the beef, but I assure you I have not exceeded 550ppm for the entire time flowering since day one.
Edit:
AN Sensi? I give it two huge thumbs up!
Edit 2:
Scrog method controlling height better than I had hoped. We were worried about nothing as it turns out.

Hi LJ - I am almost ready to start my first indoor grow. I want to use your setup for one plant. Can you please give me a brief description of your setup and how you connected the plumbing to your containers without leaks? I am interested in the pumps, air stones, res, sprinkler heads...
I think I am going to try the Kessil LEDs for lighting.
I also need to decide on a strain and I am leaning towards a pure sativa (or as pure as I can get). I have a 9' tall cab with plenty of room for stretch.
I tried to reveg my little plant but I think I burned it with too much cfl light, nutes, and water. I am trying to make an air clone from one of the remaining buds on the big plant stump. It is amazing to see how much more those little buds have grown in the last few weeks.
I am very excited to try a scientifically perfect grow to your specs.
Thank you for the inspiration and the confidence that I can do this (we shall see how reality dashes my hopes :J )
Cheers,
Mo

The spray bar is actually lower in relation to the net pots, but I'm very high and I drew that in like two seconds. I also forgot to draw the temp/ppm, ph probes and the float switch, but you get the idea... Lol.
I know it must look crazy to have all that activity in such a small amount of water, but as long as you treat with calmag, it'll simply kick ass.

How do you have it auto refilling like you said? I see one pump goes to the chiller... But is the chiller hooked up to another water source?

No, the chiller pump is just constantly recirculating that same body of water. The float device's wire leads to that small box witch is an independently powered switch that triggers a third pump sitting in tub of ro water. The hose is where the triggered pump shoots, so it's not really a return at all but an auto-refresh. I chose a poor word to describe it in my child-like drawing.

Is this just a blatant bumpy bump? Am I just a shameless views whore spreading my legs wide? Or are we actually tracking growth, not just daily, but hourly? You be the judge. I'll close my legs now.
These are forming a very uniform bud structure. Those tight little pre-flowers suggest a dense nug to come.
Damn, that is pretty, isnt' it? I've seen quite a lot of blooms in my day. I think this tender pre-flower stage is one of the most beautiful... aside from actual ripen of course.
Just chugging away, doing their thing.
I could just look at those beautiful purple stripes all day. Real eye candy.
Another closeup of a young cluster. I just wanna eat that up.
Really starting to power on now. They're feeding massively and the ph has stabilized at 5.6.
