Some of the fruits of my hobby.
This is two diff phenos of a black domina x sweettooth3 X g13 butterscotch hawa
iian.

This ones got about 2 more weeks I reckon.

Awesome set up my friend... Inspiring.

So how long do you veg for?? and only under the 2x4ft 32w'ers?? simple but effective.

However long it takes'em to get all jammed up in the floros.
I don't raise or lower the lights,too much hassle.
Growing weed can be a simple or as complicated as the grower desires.
Do you have any gardening experiance with other plants?

Thats great to hear. I read so much and get so paranoid about 'getting it right'.. Its good to see an awesome setup and so simple and hassle free..

I have no gardening experience.. Got my first 7 bagseed babies on the go now (will keep 4 and pray for ladies), only 2weeks from sprouting and under 4x42w (1500lumens)... Building my twin cab as we speak.. planning to learn from these bagseeds until I get my hands on some decent genetics and all under cfls this time round..

After seeing your setup, I will get my hands on a t8 fixture and use that for vegging 6 at different stages, then flower 3 at a time under 12x 42w cfls or more..In the future i will replace the cfls with a 250w HPS.. all that with a Balanced feed and fresh air should do it judging by your setup..

Do you ph test your water/soil??

You can get a 1000hps and a eco 440 fan cheaply here.

The one piece of advice I wish someone had given me was don't waste the time and money on cfl's and small hids.
I have a 400 and a 600 that have sat unused for years.
Enviromental control,getting the heat out is the biggest thing.Handle that and the rest kinda does itself.
I have never tested my ph in ten years of indoor growing,the ph in soil grown plants changes as a natural course depending on what the plants doing.

unfortunately, I don't have the space for 1000w and heat is going to be a major issue for me during summer.. Thats why I'm planning to flower only 3 at a time max.. Figured 250HPS would do the trick.. my space is only 3ftx1.5ftx6ft.. so not much floor space.. 3 in a line is all i can manage.

So you dont do anything to your soil either?? I have some peat moss soil.. ph 5.5-7.0.. Will that do??

Soils just what holds the roots.
Some soils will kill yer plants best to use one ya know if not test a plant before ya do them all.
I prefer no nutes to heavy nutes when it comes to the dirt.
Listen to me my young friend,the charge for 3 plants that don't yield dick is gonna be the same as the charge for the 1000's worth of plants.
The only diff between the two is that the 1000 will keep you in weed and provide a bit extra for whatever.
He who dares.................................

I hear you and trust me I want more than anything to have a bigger setup but not right now.. On a budget and have limited resources where I live and can't get anything posted to me via the net..
I'm making a big effort to make it stealth and keeping my mouth shut at the same time.. All I need is to cover my personal smoke, not looking to make anything extra. I may learn from my mistakes and end up upgrading in the future though

(i'm flattered you called me young)

Well I certainly hope it werks out for ya,keeping yer mouth shuts a great start.
Anything I can do to make yer journey any easier just holler.

So about 5 days gone by,cuts taken and some topping done in the veg area.
The harvest pulse for this month will start on mon,pics to come then of course.

Just some comparative shots.

This is an easy way to do some cuts.First a healthy plant in veg with some good branching,side and top views.
I use an old cutting board,a rusty razor,sharp fine pointed scissors and roottech gel.
You don't need any hormones at all to take cuts successfully but it speeds up the process and the plants are less beat up by the time they root.
How the branch looks removed with nodes attached and stripped off,I just pinch them off be careful not to kink the stem.......kinking is bad.
Stick in gel let sit for 30 seconds or so.
In this case I'm using peat pellets but it'll work in just about anything that will keep the cut from drying out while it's rooting.
Soak the pellets overnight or they'll suck the moisture outta the cuts with bad results.
Poke hole in pellet,stick cut all the way down again careful not to kink the stem.
Form pellet around stem,gently.......then dunk in water to replace what ya squeezed out by forming then put in a dome.I'm using a cake box,they come in a huge variety of shapes and sizes plus ya getta cake.......fucking A.
In this case they're about 12"s under a 42 watt cfl,just leave'em alone they don't like being messed with.
Roots take anywhere from 5 to 15 days depending on plant and temp,I will take some pics and explain how I quick harden them off and pot'em when these root.
Now the donor plant provided 6 cuts and has 4 main branches,ready to be up-potted and flowered tomorrow.

These are the same cuts one grown standard one topped,there's some obvious deductions regards pot-size and topping to be made............seems to me.
Like I said earlier,not that hard anyone can do it.

This is off a st3 X g13 x bsh hack,don't really care for this pheno at all.
Great plant good yield tastes like dirt and blueberries............just not really that special.
These buds have been jarred up for a month now and just aint up to snuff so I reckon I better go get some iso and have at it.
They can't all be keepers and cullings needed in the evolution of all things.

Todays shots things roll on at their own pace I am merely an enabler.
I believe the gardeners role in this is to control the enviroment to allow the plants to reach their potential.Other than that ya can't force'em.............nature don't like being pushed.
Anyhows the veg area and the tents.
