Sweet man! I'm vegging out right now under 600w HPS and going to switch to HPS for flower. I'm going to ScrOG too. How big is your screen spacing? also about how long do you veg them?

the screen is 4x4 and the grid i do roughly 3" apart to start. then i adjust it as it grows.
this is my mh/HPS tent with 2 cherry pies and 1 lemon og. vegged 6 weeks from seed before flip.
in the CXB tent im still vegging them out to fill in the corners. especially to get that fireballs a bit bigger to fill in space since its a week behind the rest. very lush vegetation and tight tight tight nodes. should be a good haul..
i do however need to call up the landlord/an electrician to see about getting more juice to the apartment. or move...lol. have to wait for the lights to go off in the evening to use the oven for dinner! even then still sketchy.

Very nice! You have me really excited for mine. When you say 6 weeks veg, do you mean from putting seeds in soil, when you see the cotyledons (first pair of round leaves), or first set of real leaves? Just curious what mine should be looking like. I call mine 2 weeks veg from the time I saw them all pop and have 2 round leaves. And If a landlord can't help, It's not impossible to replace a breaker. A little scary if you have never done it, but it can be done safely. You just need one with more amps. And I'm sure ALL you kitchen appliances are on that breaker if your stove is a problem, so that can be a lot of amps. Maybe you can run off a different outlet? perhaps from the living room? Usually, it's on separate breakers and your living room most likely doesn't use so much.

thats from cotyledons pretty much just breaking ground.
have them split up on different breakers right now and staggered so they only overlap for 5 hours so it really should be running ok. 2 tents on the bedroom breaker and 3rd tent on the bathroom both are 15A breakers. definitely wont be able to run 3 tents in the summer here but should have something else figured out by then.

looks good, nice and bushy. i wouldn't say its too late necessarily as they'll keep stretching another 2 weeks or so into flower. you could probably open them up in the middle bending some of your taller tops to the side to create tops out of all those nodes. however it looks like they'll probably fill in the rest or alot of your tent through normal stretch without scrogging. 4 plants total?

figured with just under a week to go i should check the trichomes so i got the scope out the other night and to my surprise theyre ready to roll. at 52 days flower. about 90% cloudy and 5% amber/clear . would have been more amber than i want if i let em go the full 8 weeks. been running cherry pie for several harvests now and this is the fastest theyve ever been ready. real dense nugs. smells like a bowl of fruity pebbles, substitute milk with gassy terp juice!.

looks great buddy, you should yield alot, did you tie your tops down to keep it even or did ya just let it strech through the scrogfigured with just under a week to go i should check the trichomes so i got the scope out the other night and to my surprise theyre ready to roll. at 52 days flower. about 90% cloudy and 5% amber/clear . would have been more amber than i want if i let em go the full 8 weeks. been running cherry pie for several harvests now and this is the fastest theyve ever been ready. real dense nugs. smells like a bowl of fruity pebbles, substitute milk with gassy terp juice!.
looks amazing i just put mine under the same exact steep if i can get anything like you I'm gonna be a very happy manfigured with just under a week to go i should check the trichomes so i got the scope out the other night and to my surprise theyre ready to roll. at 52 days flower. about 90% cloudy and 5% amber/clear . would have been more amber than i want if i let em go the full 8 weeks. been running cherry pie for several harvests now and this is the fastest theyve ever been ready. real dense nugs. smells like a bowl of fruity pebbles, substitute milk with gassy terp juice!.

ya once theyre fully dried and go into the curing jars ill post numbers. wont be a true reflection of the cxb capabilities though as this round only flowered under the new lights. started off veg under a silly little CFL then moved to mh. the tent running fireballs + 2 lemon og's will be a better idea of true yield.

measures about 44"x44" really. supposed to be 4x4 tent
6 week veg, 7.5 week flower - 602g dry first run ... can get that number up but still better than hps runs
fireballs day 14 flower .. the lemon OG seeds seem to be relatively unimpressive. definitely wont be running them again. 2 of the 3 are coming along perfectly fine and happy but little trichome production early on.. maybe they'll catch up maybe not. the other one is the thing of my nightmares and suffered a serious potassium lockout. went from green and happy with no significant symptoms to full blown gnarly literally overnight...have never had anything like it happen in several years of growing. so anyways... flushed and fed, we'll give her a couple weeks to recover but if i dont like what i see i'll probably just turn the bitch to mulch and say good riddance.
fireballs clones + sour cherry x hot dog seeds popped, freebies from breeders boutique.
also finally making the switch and getting away from the synthetic nutes..long overdue, i just always assumed it would be too much hassle to manage an organic grow in a fairly small apartment. was talking with my old landlord when i had him put in a new breaker and he got to talking about farming back in the day and a professor at university of orono i think was teaching that the land around here didnt have great worm content..something along those lines.. talked about some other farmers in the area from back then and how they were bad at farming etc.
and how his step father or something was into rotating his crops (for all the obvious reasons, microbiology etc), and he had great worms content. so his step father told him he needed to switch up his technique and start rotating with a more organic approach blah blah. long story short he got to a point where he said "I just don't know if I can afford to grow like this.." whereupon the wiser man replied, "I don't know how you can afford not to." which was the little nugget of troof bomb that stuck. ANYWAYS> > will let this flowering mix cook for as long as these clones and seedlings veg ,, think im going to do 8 weeks this time. not pictured but also included are epsom salts, earthworm castings, indonesian bat guano, and the base soil is roots organics original.
