First Hydro Grow in SuperLocker 2.0 Need seed help

heading2cali is obviously a Supercloset rep or just somebody who's swinging off their nuts, or both. Unless you post up the pics of your stellar Supercloset grow which everyone has been asking for over and over again, then I'd seriously consider just shutting the fuck up if I were you. It doesn't take a genius to see that its design is garbage. And what is it anyways? Looks like a flimsy ass, over-glorified filing cabinet to me...

Fact: It will be getting way too hot

Fact: Those are too many plant sites for such a small space

Fact: It's going to be a bitch to change out and maintain that rez once the plants start getting big

Fact: The more plants you cram together like that does not equal a bigger yield


Personally I'm in talks with a guy on my local CL mirror to purchase his mint Superlocker for $500, and I may just forgo it because of the inherent heat issues that'll no doubt be taking place unless I can find the time to modify it.

Well I am not a rep, so I will be telling the truth on my experience.
Yeah can probally only keep 2 plants in there. If the 250 hps light is to hot for the locker then the supercloset people are retarded. Why sell a light that is too big for the space. I've heard/read that this light is the right size from 70% of the people. Time will tell.

really just depends if its aircooled or not.

So Meast, you got you Superlocker in? How are things with it??

Don't be put off by the two plants. a SCROG done proper will blow your mind!

think he gets it in like a week. as stated above scrog would get some great results, but keep in mind it takes a considerable ammount more work to train them every day or so. 2-3 plants SOG in a dwc tub and you wouldnt have to monitor shit as long as the res temp is good.

You want numbers? Fine, every situation is different and my numbers aren't gonna be anyone else's but if you wanna rely on subjective and changeable information, well, that proves all I need to know about you... My first grow in the Superlocker, I started with 8 below, 3 were male ( I went with reg seeds to save $... you wanna talk down to me for that too? ). With the 5 I had left, I got between 1 and 1.5 oz. per plant. I'm now into veg week 2 of grow 2... I still consider this my first hydro grow cause I know I don't know everything and I could probably fine tune my system even more.
As far as pics go... I don't live in a medical state, yet. Pictures are what we intelligent folks call " incriminating evidence ". You can post all the pics you want. Hell, post your address, I'll pop by and say Hi, so will rippers and the feds and crack heads and etc... But again, you know more than all of us.
And judging by the way you assume everyone has money and space, even patients of yours, I can tell you are a spoiled little rich boy or maybe just raised that way... I'd have way more respect for a " young kid saving his lunch money to buy this system, cause his parents won't let him use their basement " than I have for you at this moment! The young kid probably knows how to talk to other people without sounding like a total dick... IMO:clap:
Pics or it never happened!!!! There are plenty of people on this site that are not in legal states that post in these forums. There are thousands of people on these things posting pics of there grows you really think the Feds are going to come knocking on your door specifically for that little "super locker" lol this is a joke. I'm all for helping people on this site and I have helped quite a few but you my friend are being a ass plain and simple. Also I read another post of yours on here that says you vegged for 5 weeks in this thing lol that's a joke as well, ether this locker is as much a piece as I think it is and you have to veg for tons of extra weeks to get a decent plant or your a liar ether way I don't care much but those plants in my first pics where vegge three weeks so you can see my confusion lol good luck to you.

Only downside to that is a two or three plant SOG grow won't yield him shit. In the end he'll be paying more for electricity than it's worth.

ya, imo all of these closets will give you a hell of alot less than you want. Only vary experience growers could pull decent weight out of this.

If I could get 125g every 10 weeks I will be happy... Heard SOG and SCROG now, experts what is it and how many plants to start with ??

i think that number is realistic in this system.

SOG = very high density growing taking rooted cones and introducing them into flower fairly quickly to take advantage of small spaces (usually with height restrictions) eliminating most all of the lower branching that would usually shadow its neighboring plant. leaving you with a single cola (main bud of the plant) allowing you to put up to 4+ plants per ft2 giving you higher yield with higher plant counts rather then fewer plants with much more veg time.


SCROG= using a screen or net to weave the plant tops into the screen allowing for auxins (plant hormones strongest in the plant top(s)), this method allows you to take a single plant and veg it into the screen giving you essentially a carpet like of tops with evenly distributed axins allowing for each top to grow like its own plant giving a very high yield with a single or couple of plants. also a great method for keeping your plant canopy very low in tight spaces. takes a bit longer to veg but the wait can be well worth it.

Thanks for the help Dr....

So what method am I doing?? I have 5 seeds of 8 ball kush and 5 seeks of pineapple chunk? I heard that the pineapple chunk is almost undoing inside because it can grow high.

just experiment until what works for you well, works lol. if you want the pineapple and it grows tall, the scrog method is going to be your best friend. weave that bad boy in the screen and you will come out on top most likley.

i would suggest trying one strain at a time, but thats just me. it will give you a better idea of what each strain will do throughout its life cycle. remember to clone and number clones matching mother plants because you will have different phenotype's of the strains, choose the best and remove the rest, this is the only way to do it man:)

Ok Im going 2 plant pineapple chunk scrog method. Couple of questions:

1.) So the scrog method will stop the pineapple from growing vertical??
2.) Can I clone like 3 weeks before harvest because thats how long I think the clones would stay in the upper chamber?
3.) Also with Scrog do you stop moving the net once they hit flower 12/12??

The other great thing about SCROG is the extended veg time... and I see that as a plus. Ideally you'll want the biggest root mass you can get before switching into flower. I SOG but still veg for a couple of weeks, trying to build up those roots.

I'll cosign on that. you have to treat the seedlings as if they are babies just starting to grow and realize that the families they derive from will have a lot to do with their character. This is why I don't recommend just getting seeds from anywhere at random. Try to find a reputable place very well known for high-grade stuff.

Already got my seeds from Barney's. I have 8 ball kush, pineapple chunk, and a bunch of freebies. Not sure what seed I'm gonna try, I think I changed my mind back to the 8 ball kush. Start with 2 plants and scrog it... Also I was wondering if someone could tell me if you can take clones 3.5 weeks before harvest, to keep a rotation in this superlocker ??????

Definitely take clones in veg!! Way, waaaayyy easier that way. I took a bunch of cutting late in flower and yes, they did pop a lot of roots in just one week's time in the aero cloner, but reverting them back to their vegetative stage... well, that took several weeks!

I take my clones a week into flower for this reason. They take longer to grow then a veg clone but it works out for me time wise. by the time they are growing again and ready to flip. the ones i just took the cuts from are almost ready to come down.

I got tracking #, should have it mid week. Couple of questions:

1.) I don't have growgales (can't spell the fucking things) could the hps bulb hurt my eyes ??
