Pics of the other 4 plants that are about 4-5 weeks in. Less than a month left on these girls. These are the Tennessee Kush... not bad for a first run with a strain I made from an outdoor grow, lol.

And then here is a full-blood OG Kush for comparison... The OG has slightly smaller colas (not sure if you can tell from the pic), and the pistils amber a lot faster. Oddly enough, it takes about the same time to ripen off... just the pistil turn a lot earlier.

The OG is a much darker natural green color, and it has a tendency to turn purple much easier it seems. I'm already seeing pockets of purple and it's only 70F in the tent at night right now...

Anywho... should be moving the tent and installing the 600w lights this week if all goes as planned and god smiles his bushy beard upon me. Stay tuned, lol.


Edit... the first and last pic are the same plant I believe... I think I screwed the pooch when uploading the pics, lol.

If you can, get 2 superspreaders. Your hydro guy can order or online. Made for bat wing hoods. But in sealed hoods like you got, they go under the light and reflect the high energy back up then down making your canopy much more even with no hot spots making you shuffle plants. Also acts like a heat sink and removes a lot of heat. Reducing AC running. They don't advertise them foe this. I've tested with lumn meters and grown this way for over 5 years. But with 1000's. Good luck. But looking at your grow your past luck.

This'll be my first HID tent of my own. I've helped with others, but the largest HID I've owned was a 150w that I used in a small vert grow in a closet back in college, lol. Those... those were the days...

So yeah, any advice you feel like throwing out there would be greatly appreciated. The more things I can research before putting the tent back together and having to change it later would be awesome.

And thank you for the kind words :)

good stuff =)

Got down to smoking the jared ones yet? Smoke report? =)
I tried to smoke a joint, but it only makes it about half way before it gums up on you. I let one plant dry out extra long just so I can have some bud that I can roll up.

The OG tastes like a lemon pine tree. Hard to explain. Potency is off the charts. I picked it early, only at about 15-20% amber, so it doesn't have that hard "I'm not getting up for an hour" feeling, but the second you inhale the first pull, you definitely get a headrush that lets you know you aren't going to be doing anything for a while.

Edit: I should add, I mainly grow for my parents at this point. My dad has neuropathy and my mom has had 3 different cancers. I'm mainly retired at this point, so I'm really not growing to try and harvest 10 pounds a month. I would have stayed in Tennessee if I wanted to keep doing that. ;)

I just grow so that my parents don't have to pay for smoke. I might sell some clones to a local dispensary or unload my extra to them, but it's not like I'm trying to get rich off my tent, lol. Even when I get the 1200w in there, it won't be for commercial reasons... I'm just tired of burning the shit out of myself on CFL bulbs every time I reach in to check a cola, lol...
