c99 & Power Flower : Voyage II of the Space Cab

why not tie them over if you have the room? i'd be nervous super cropping beautiful plants that size. mine never stopped growing until right before harvest. those babies are looking great!

Thnx poboy.....

Ya, actually last night I put some bamboo sticks in there and tied em' down...,.super cropping didn't appeal to me after researching.....I'll get some pics up at some point....thanks.

well I just went through and checked temps, and adding up bulbs and wattages....

The flower chamber is in full Warp Drive now ! I counted 26 cfl's and the 2 t5's.....Temps were killer....High 72 and a low of 64.....So I added two more cfl's to boost it up to 28 cfl's ! AWWWW YAAAAAAA, lol......

So total wattage in the flower chamber for bulbs is 692....that is assuming all 23 watt bulbs but there are some 26 watters in there too....So I guess I'm in the 700 club !

Time for some Warp Drive in the Space Cab !!!!

here's some pics I just took....I posted 3 of the tie-downs I am doing....I need to get some more bamboo...Can't believe one day later and they are totally growing upright again !

Other pics show clones....I saw the first roots coming out the bottoms of those pots so they are almost ready for transplant again....Clones will be going outdoors....

Other chamber is 3 plants from seed...Those are for outdoors as well....

I will be planting the outdoor stuff tentatively on July 15.....So they have two more weeks to vegg indoors....

Last pic shows a burnt bud from growing into the lights...Last one that burned like this I cut the burn stuff off...the cut didn't seem to bother the plant at all, lol....

Hey man just read through your last grow. Looked solid, sucked about the bud rot. Maybe I missed it, do you know what your outdoor growspace is gonna look like yet?

not exactly...I kind of specked out an area already....Have to go back, and decide on final spots, and prep some soil....Was also considering a possible swamp grow too if I can find a primo spot.

Pretty much I plan on bringing some soil, and planting the plants right into the ground.

Well to be sure I'm in the 700 club I picked up a splitter at the Depot today, and added another bulb ,lol...I alsos rearranged some of the lights so I had more surrounding the lower parts.

Well apparently Female Seeds c99 and RQPF can stand some high temps.....

I just checked on the clones.....they were pretty much totally dried out, and it was 95 in that vegg chamber, and they really took off growing overnight, lol...Wow these strains like it hot ! I got pics but I'm too tired...

Oh, I have also found it to be a major pain in the ass rearranging the bulbs when you move the plants when you have this many bulbs.....Especially with the two different strains at two different heights....It takes a LONG time to do this....Too long, imo.....I may consider at some point changing them out...who knows....

UPDATE : Day 30 of 12-12

How time flies....here's some updated pics...PF stopped growing after about 2 weeks or so of flowering....The c99 is just finally starting to slow down, I think lol....I can't even count the number of burn spots on her from growing into the lights....Most of the buds on the plant are all about the same..There doesn't seem to be one or more large dominating colas....
.I also picked up 2 fans at Wally World to help with the air-flow......You can see too from the pics how high the c99 grew in the cab...she's basically at the lights.....I did do some LST'ing to the bigger chutes....

here's a pick of a c99 clone...I ran out of room in the Space Cab so I tossed her, and a clone dome in a nook in the cellar, and used a cardboard box to make a ghetto wall, lol....

CD, does that box look familiar ? lol...I actually had it laying around the cellar....I wasn't using it so I figured what better way to use it...I'm not putting any clothes in it, lol....

You have not mastered weed growing until you've mastered the cardboard box, lol....

ha, love it bro, cardboard is king, LoL. i was all warpped out from all the warp vids, LoL, good stuff. thats a jungle you have in there.i still think you need to run some smaller indicas in that cab, but those buds sure look nice!!

One last pic of the current jungle....I moved the outdoor plants out of the cab into the cardboard vegg room cause they are going outdoors tonight...I also added some more lights to the cardboard vegg room...I think that light looks like that mechanical spider from that Will Smith movie...Think it was called the Wild West ? lol

I was thinking of maybe doing some serious LST'ing with an auto in one of the side chambers for chits and giggles....Anyone know if you can LST an auto ?

I don't have much space in those chambers...I think they are 11"W x 21"D x 27" H

UPDATE: Day 37 of 12-12

here's a few various shots...PF is doing well...c99 is doing ok, getting more crystals, however, I have not given her nutes for about a week and a half...She has gotten just water everyday for the past week...She got P toxicity from too much Jack's....Too much P locks out K and zinc apparently causing yellowing of the leaves, brown tips, and blotchy spots.....Once I am done watering I am switching her to Dyna-gro Grow for the rest of the grow......

Other chamber has a clone of the outdoor runt....the runt has actually switched gears, and is now looking to be my best outdoor plant so far...The runt is a Dinafem Critical Jack I believe....

Going to have to check the seed stash.....I want to run an auto either in one of the spare chambers in the cab, or maybe in that nook in the cellar behind the cardboard box ! lol

Anyone know if you can run autos on 24-0 lighting ?

more pics....

also notice the 3 headed monster on the one cola on the c99....about 2 weeks into flowering or so she grew into a light burning a bud...So I cut the burn off, and she grew 3 bud heads on one cola, lol....

Man why is it that the runts always seem to take off? I've had my runt take off in both of my growing experiences. Any science behind it or is it just us being optimistic

I have no idea but it was a runt, and didn't grow more than an inch for like 3 weeks or something....Part of it was the environment I had it exposed to....It was the only survivor out of 5 or 6 seeds....But then she just did not grow....She was stuck at like an inch for like 3 weeks, lol...

3 headed monster, thats great!! everythings looking great bro. those look like there gonna be some frosty ass bitches, LoL.

from what i read on autos when i was growing them, you can, but you should give them a break and 20/4 is the best. i think because the dark is when it produces the thc? correct me if im wrong.

UPDATE: DAY 42 OF 12-12

coming along...they are at exactly 6 weeks now in flowering time...After giving the c99 nothing but straight water for about a week and a half I finally gave her some nutes....I switched over to Dyna-gro Grow along with some liquid seaweed, and Floralicious Plus....She has seemed to respond nicely with an increase of trich production....Buds may not be the biggest but they are super sugar coated...Also, with the c99 there really are not any real huge buds on her...Instead there are a bunch of smaller buds spread throughout the pant, but there seems to be a decent amount of them...There really is not much for popcorn stuff on the bottom...A tiny bit, but not much.....

Can't wait to smoke that Cindy !!! Might only have a week or so left till chopdown ! Pretty soon I'll be busting out the microscope !

thats alot of cfl bulbs there 1 150 w hps bulb would be way better
