Some numbers from that smaller strain/pheno hunt 3x3 in 3gal pots. Got better gpw and grams per gallon from the 4x 2gal's in the LED tent - lol

Not like I was going for numbers, this was mainly a strain/pheno hunt for a decent indica between the 2 rounds. But I like to take a step back and review any learning's from my grows. This one confirms a couple of key grow rules I'll have to stick to better. I'll use the tent for smaller plants and extra clones but be more selective and even veg in the flower room if necessary with plants in the main room. Not worth the work to flip early or weak plants, which I did with a couple of the clones (PPP and Blue Dream). Much more productive plants with 6-8 week veg and being selective about clones/seedling phenos. The larger 3x3 will make up for some of the weight :)

Super Skunk:
Not worth the soil it was grown in this one, freebie seed. Cat piss smell and taste, maybe bad pheno but I could get more bud from a 1gal JTR than this thing! Don't think I'll even use any of this, will have to find somebody that likes the smell and taste of cat piss in their meds - lol
Bud: 18.3g
Popcorn/Trim: 3.9g
Total Weight: 22.2g/.79 oz.

PPP (monster-crop clone):
Not terrible but in comparison I've gotten 2.8 zips from one of these in a 3gal. This was just an extra and not very vigorous clone from a flowering plant.
Bud: 29.4g
Popcorn/Trim: 8g
Total Weight: 37.4g/1.34 oz.

THC Bomb (2 plants, trimmed/weighed together, phenos are almost identical):
Not bad smoke. After a bit of curing I may keep and run one more plant, stronger of the 2 phenos and see what it can do with a proper veg and some training. It has a hashy flavor and sweet smell after curing a bit, a decent kick too.
Bud: 56.6g
Popcorn/Trim: 12.8g
Total Weight: 69.4g/2.48 oz.

Blue Dream:
Classic example of flowering a weak plant, this was just an extra clone but not the greatest going in and produced accordingly.
Bud: 19.4g
Popcorn/Trim: 0g (mixed in with JTR popcorn below)

JTR:
I expected more weight from this one, it looked good but the weight didn't come through, have to look back and see what I could have done better with this one. Think it was just an earlier than normal flip, I typically wait until they start showing some pre-flowering.
Bud: 34.2g
Popcorn/Trim: 12.4g (includes a bit of BD popcorn)
Total Weight: 46.6g/1.66 oz.

Total Weight for 6x 3gal: 195g/6.96 oz.

Cheers :bigjoint:

Busy day yesterday. Took down the larger 3x3, nice little haul from this one. Hard to believe they all came out from under 1x 315w bulb. Should easily beat the 10.9 zip haul from the first full 3x3 a couple of rounds back.

I just put them into the dark for now as I focused on re-loading the room, got the new 3x3 in there (pics to follow). Emptied the room, scrubbed it down, and re-loaded. Will chop them over the next couple of days and will have to find a few hours to trim next week ;)

Got a couple of pics of each, one flash pic in front of the basement door and one in the room of the larger plants. For reference/perspective, the white door behind them is 32" W and the door knob is 37" from the floor.

Blue Dream in 5Gal. This one continued to swell the last couple of weeks and will be the heaviest:

JTR in 5gal, very nice haul from a JTR responded well to all the training. Thinking pretty close to a qp from this one, second heaviest I'd think:

Blue Pyramid in 5gal. Swelled early and then just matured for the last 10 days or so. Super-dense buds all the way up/down the plant. Very nice plant and smells like Blueberry hash, good punch from a couple of small taste testers. Glad I have a couple of clones going for next round :)

PPP in 2gal, very respectable plant for a 2gal, not the densest pheno of this PPP but still 1.5-2 zips I'd think. This and the JTR below were just fillers for some extra room on the end of the 3x3:

JTR #2 in 2gal (originally labeled this one as a PPP!). Not bad, no training really on this one, au naturel, just an extra clone like the PPP above. Ended up being the tallest of all of them, 40" in 2gal pot:

Here's the new 3x6 under the 2x 315w LEC's. Total of 12 gallons of medium in the smaller 3gal, and 15 gal of medium in the newer/larger 5gal 3x3. 3 gal plants were in much better/larger shape going in than last round when I ran 6x smaller 3gal. The 5gal are probably the largest 5gal plants I've run yet, all 3 were ~26" trellised/tied down and should stretch to 34-38".

The first 3x3 at Day 11 is showing small buds. 4x 3gal plants, flipped at ~18" tied/weaved through the trellises. The DIY Blue Ripper is looking like the largest plant (front/bottom-left in the pic facing the door) and is looking like a fine specimen, tons of bud sites, packed tight together :) The very indica leaning Blue Power Plant is behind it and also looking good, surprisingly good considering both of these were the runts and not my first selection from these phenos. To their right are the 2x Harlequin's, one is clearly larger than the other, pheno #1 is smaller but has that incredible tropical fruit punch smell/taste, I had to boost it up on a stand to even the canopy, the others were about 3" taller after 11 days of stretch.

The new 5gal 3x3 is closest to the door. Put the JTR and Blue Power plant pheno 1 beside each other and the huge (largest) Blue Ripper across the end, no need for fillers, they'll use the full 3x3 no problem. They're already taller/bigger than the stretched 3gal plants, once these stretch pretty sure I'll have to move the light up further :)

Holy shit batman! That's a lot of ganja!

I'll be over this weekend! Lol
Can I ride with you? I have gas money
lol, thanks, I could use some help trimming next week, you're welcome to pop in ;)
idk what weight is in there dry but it's a nice haul, definitely the heaviest yet from this LEC :D

Here's the new batches, Day 13 and Day 2. Stretching and shaping up nicely, that bottom-front plant in the first pic is the DIY JTR x Blueberry, it's 32" W x 16" D x 28" H and just starting to stretch :shock:

Chopped and hung the remaining 2Gal JTR (left) and PPP last night. The 2 Gal JTR ended up being the tallest, some nice buds on there with no training.

Another 5-6 days and will be looking for some help trimming ;)

3x 5 Gal and 2x 2 Gal 3x3:

The 2x2 tent is now full with a mini SOG, 3x THC Bombs and 3x Blue Dream filling the tent. They're about 3 days into 12/12. These were just extra clones, when I did an inventory I had too may plants going so in they go, let's see what the LED's can get from these 1 gal pots.

The flower room is stretching and building buds on the 3 gal plants. These are probably the largest trained plants I've run in 3 gal fabrics, interested to see what they produce.

You got a couple rooms you're not showing us @GroErr ? Seems like you are harvesting every couple days :lol:
