    6-7 weeks veg. is just to much for me .. to big plants to handle .. to big pots .. and even more importent .. if you grow a shorter time you will mostlikely also experiance less problems .. not a lot of time to get rootbound (I know that wont happen for you in hydro) but also less time for you to screew up ..

    I think 4 weeks will do .. maybe 5 if I FIM em as I will ..
    Well I wouldn't mind if my whole room turned into a rain forest lol. Which ever way would give me the best results is the way I want to grow. More product, better quality, more sales, less price, happy customers I'd say.

    You should research lst and scrog, you seem pretty much on the ball and could do it there with these. Much shorter, smaller plants with way more yield. I am building a large cork screw for the two I have as seedlings now to train them in the pots. Dont want to use metal so I am using very light pvc, heating it and bending like a cork screw to put in the pot to train the plant and get many more colas out of the two. RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH

    yea do some research on diffrent tecnics ..

    I did FIM one and LST one to see what I liek the most ... I like FIM .. with a light LSTing afterwords to spread all them bud sites out


    DSC00838.jpg

    that is two plants .. 6-7 weeks veg ... one is FIM (on the right .. 12 tops) other is LSTd .. 8-9 tops .. but bigger ..

    keep em low .. even with a 1K HPS .. 4 feet max .. then the top 2-3 feet will get enough light to produce good buds you actualy can sell .. the small popcorn buds at the lower sites you can make oil of and sell (alot of Ppl. like a littel oil added to ther smoke .. or kif .. do some research)

    also .. since you want to sell .. you need to know when exatly to haverst ..

    Im acctualy saying this Bc. I did buy some the other day .. for funn .. kush .. same kind I have in flowering .. just got a gram .. did how ever look at it later in my new microcope for funn .. and idiot did haverst to early .. no amber crystals atall .. and only half or so was cloudy .. most was clear .. I wont make that mistake myself .. you will have like a week window to haverst in to get best smoke .. would sukc to use that many money that much time and then haverst a week to early or a littel to later .. get it when its like 50/50% amber/cloudy .. maybe a bit more amber .. if you like heavy smoke .. or do half fist and give the rest 3 days more .. I guess you will .. as I get sick just thinking about the work waiting for you at haverst time ... good luck
    Take my advice !! ... I dont use it anyway ...

    I try and research for about 3-4 hours a day. I want to learn from the best. That's another technique I see people talking about. I will check it out too. Soo many decisions! Lol I have no idea which ones will give me the best outcome.

    Yeah I leaned about that also. I plan to flower until I can use a micro scope and see when the amber starts appearing. Also I read that the last week or should be in complete darkness. The guy said the plant will force nutrients to the resin on the leaves like it would do to preserve its self. If anyone wants to clarify elaborate on this let me know.


    As for the jars lol. Idk what im looking at really. No idea how many jars ill need, or how much ill even yield. I

    well for the dark time .. some do give em 48 hrs darkness at the end before haverst .. I belive most go with 24 .. will make resin/crystals production speed up a bit .. I dont belive it do that much of a diffrent .. tho I will do 24 hrs myself

    but NOT a week .. no way ..

    jars to cure it in (I keep my instand coffee jars) after a week or so of drying (in darkness .. 20-25C .. with some air circulation) you want to cut the very tops of the steams it have been hanging on and put em in jars .. fist few weeks you need to open them daily .. 2-3 times .. that will make the best tasty buds .. evrybody will want to buy yours ..
