and here is a pic update. im loving how these buds are lookin. i accidentally broke off a branch with a small bud on it the other day, dried it, and smoked it today and it tasted great. take a look, let me know how you guys think its lookinbongsmilie
looks good
i just read this thread and its impressive what you can do with flouro's and miricle-grow!!
life's a garden, dig it!
 
Like the thread man! I haven't used normal flouros much, just cfls, but it looks like they're doing a pretty damn good job for you! haha. I'm going to subscribe and keep my eye on this thread. Curious to see how the final buds turn out. Good luck!!

I think you need to properly mount your HPS bulb to that reflector, it should not be sagging down like that. It is defeating the purpose of the reflector the way it is hanging now...

its the only way its going to work with that reflector. i got it for free im not going to bitch. its on there secure its just how the reflector is built. (it was a street light thats normally in a big case with the ballast.)

do smaller plants flowers mature faster than bigger plants because you cant see that well in the pics but a lot of the hairs are already turning orange on all the top buds.

so these buds are getting suppper sticky and full of crystals. they smell dank and they are really swelling now. the smaller bushy one is maturing a lot quicker. i can notice this light making them better, it almost looks like there is goo on the inner part of the buds!! :D ill post pics tommorow

glad to see you got a hps lightning to your op...If you had sticked with those fluros you still would have a great result..But 400w will surly bomb those nuggs..i added to my fluro setup a 70 w hps...nothing like a 400w, but still...and my nuggs are swelling and covered with fucking heavy crystals..on my 6 week of bloom...


how much do you still got time, when the reaper visits the herbs..?

i can see the crystals just get, what looks like, more and more everyday. i also have a 70 watt hps but i dont have a way to mount it with my curret op. im not expecting too much longer for them. 2 weeks 3 weeks max. they are maturing very quickly. a couple buds on the smallest one matured enough so i cut for a taste test.

ill be taking pics when my lights are on

i no a lot of ppl that trim like that but i have herd both ways so what ever. i like to trim upwards throughout flowering from when the lower fan leafs turn yellow till they are almost mature. these pictures cant really dictate how mature they are cuz of how red the light makes the room :P. i mite try takin pics under just the flors or something so you can see better detail of these buds cuz they are juicy and covered in crystals.
