Patch's 1000 watt Critical Kush grow

I usually wait until i see pistills before flushing and changing to bloom nutes, which is usually around 2 weeks after flip if from seed and around 10 days if using clones

Cool I'm doing a 3-2-1 GROW heavy formula right now I just don't want any N toxicity lol I have a bad habit of that. I guess Ill let em stretch a little and switch over in a week or so

east coat link me to your girls man I wanna check em out!

Wonder where DirtyNerd is!

Don't stess too much man, first 2 weeks I still consider 'veg' so if you havent got N toxicity yet, it is unlikely to happen in the first 2 weeks

I havent got a thread yet man, have just finished a grow of some nightmare og, candyland and some of my own strain night cap. I'll post up some pics when my phone decides to work!!

They look beasty as man!! Should pull a lb easy

Ha thanks! Just like you said, it is so much better than a roomie and puts a lot more money in my pocket than one would haha

Its like an aeroponics setup kinda, theres a big sheet of styrofoam that the roots dangle onto and grow all over. The water pumps from the res and onto the table with PVC pipe that has tiny holes drilled it in. Water just squirts everywhere in there lol. That table gets a sheet of water laid on it that falls back into the reservoir and gets pumped back up to the table etc etc.

Nice man sounds like s pretty elaborate artoponicd system! Can't wait to see the yield! Stayin tuned for this one!

I guess now that I think of it it's actually an NFT setup lol I couldn't think of the name!

thanks guys hopefully I can give you some good bud porn hehehe

guys they are stretching and growing like crazy. if I don't prune them or bend then they will be touching the glass before it's over! I'll get pics later

lowered PPM down to 500 and they love it

Sounds like a good place to be bro, more bud sites is good, train that bitch to be a beast

I haven't done much training compared to usual this time I super cropped the one in the back left, and topped the other 3. mostly just doing pruning and letting them do their own thing!

I'm shooting for 1.5 LBs

anyone ever heard of NEXTLight?

I'm in.

Love this strain! Mine are a bit ahead of yours time wise, all I can say is prepare for more growth lol.

Looking Awesome brother I am away for work at the moment so don't get much of a chance to log on as phones are banned on site can only use on breaks and when I'm back in my room keep up the good work going to get the Pound+ for sure

Thanks all!

sounds like my job haha

Alright everyone so a few things I have implemented into my garden to increase my yield. I am trying to crush 2 LBs out of these girls but would be happy with 1.75

I bought a NEXTLight LED grow light. It is 525 watts from the wall. These things are the future I am telling you!! The LED grow lights I've seen/used focus on red and blue only, and the this is a white light that matches the spectrum of an HPS for the curve. The intensity even 24 inches away is even GREATER than a 1000 watt. The light falls off dramatically about 4 feet out however, (so these cover about a 3x3 amazingly). but let's not forget to mention that this light only burns at 100 degrees F, it's only 500 watts too.... plus it has a lifetime rating of 70,000 hours lol good luck getting that out of even 10 HPS, I could go on and on about it but I would rather just let pictures and results talk

Hortilux 1000 HPS spectrum



NEXTLight Spectrum



Other LED lights (BlackDog, GrowBlu, others are different than this)












PAR reading for Hortilux 1000 watt HPS





PAR reading for NextLight 525



Keep in mind that I'm not replacing my 1000 watt hps, I'm just adding this to it lol

I also bought a few co2 bags that each cover a 5x5 space VERY well, I will run a few temperature tests without my exhaust running (can't evacuate the co2) and see if temperatures can stay appropriate around the 85-90 degree range. if they don't then oh well, and if they do then I will be adding co2 o the garden

I also super cropped about 5-6 branches on each plant to even out the canopy a little bit I expect good results from that too!

Shit you love your led's brother hope you sold your old ones to cover the cost of this new one i still don't like the design but i like the Par readings just watch out for light bleaching from the LED's can't wait to see the girls go nuts under this new light

thanks man yeah you know I love em lol, this one I think is a break through light too bro... I saw a guy pull 6 LBs on a 4x8 table using these.....

Wow how many lights and how many plants... ?

have a look yourself man 6 NextLights (3k watts)
