4x4 Grow Tent with 280cfm online fan and carbon filter. 1000 Watt HPS barebulb hortilux. Took clones from outdoor crop in Late August. Dealt with pH issues, spider mites, root aphids and insane temperatures do they've been through a lot. Gonna flip very soon after cleaning them up underneath, just waiting for organic go box nutes to come. Been feeding leftover compost tea and organic s from summer but ran out.

Few pictures of my outdoor vanilla kush and blueberry and some bho from each. I'm running 4 blueberry and 4 white widow but two have been having issues there entire lives and are burnt. If they don't recover after this recent flush and the new organic utes I'll. Just chop them and run the 6 plants.

Got my nutrients today, excited to finally have a full set of nutes as I've always mixed and matched random Nutes. I am experimenting with this crop so I've been super cropping like crazy and defoliating. I defoliated 3 of the 8 plants about 50 percent. I'm going to do one more stripping it almost bare and I'll post before and after pics as well as an updated shot in a week. Will be flipping in a week, just wanted to give them a dose of the new nutes and see how they take to them before flipping. Gonna be tight so I may chop the weakest burnt one and still try to figure out the best way the mount my little fan to make more room.

This is the white widow that in going to defoliate, I'll give it a week to recover then flip and defoliate again post 3 weeks after the stretch. I've always been against defoliation but wanted to give it a shot as I've seen some crazy results

Not much goin on, some of the defoliated plants look amazing for only three days, others are a bit stunted. I am starting 24 hour dark tonight before 12/12. Debating doing 11/13 this round. Hoping for a pound. Will be taking a few clones in a few days and popping a few other beans but need to set up a small veg area.

Took 4 white widow and 4 blueberry clones and popped two each of the three getawaymountain strains listed for next round. Hoping to get some males to do some breeding. Gave the plants 24 hours of darkness and flipped them up 12/12 yesterday so I have 9-10 weeks to veg the next round. Ordered a 4 bulb agrobrite t5 set up from amazon for veg, was trying to decide between that and a 300 mars but figured temps would be easier to maintain with t5 and should have more spread out coverage

1 week flowering pics to come soon. In the process of getting my veg area set up, having difficulties getting clones to stay alive so I popped 3 sea level, 2 maniac crack and 2 getaway special. They are just breaking surface so they should have 8 weeks to veg before they go into the flowering tent. Hoping to get s few clones to take root and to get s male or two out of the getaway strains to do some breeding

Day 20 since flip, looking good, took bottom 20 percent off for better air flow, defoliated obe plant pretty heavily as an experiment, got some sea level, getawayspecial and maniac crack started for next round. Spider mites came back with a vengeance and I think I finally got them under control but they did a signigicant amount of leaf damage over the past two weeks which I know will affect my yield considerably,

Forgive the phone quality pics, day 30 flowering, half the crop are very indica and half are very sativa which will likely need another 6 weeks. I'm in no rush although I plan to get another crop in before I start vegging my outdoor ladies so I'm hoping to fill the tent with the vegging ladies and flip the end of February to be done before may.

Day 58, really wanna pull them as my vegging plants are outgrowing the t5 they're under but I know another week or two will do them good mostly milky cloudy trichs with a few ambers on sugar leafs. Suffered from high humidity for the past three weeks couldn't keep it under 45-50 with DEhumidifier running 24/7 so slot of the leaves suffered.

Took a few branches at day 59, need to chop all at once for drying and to get my next run goin so there will be a lot of lower stuff goin to hash when I do a full chop. Gonna lollipop more next round or not let them get as big. It really hurt my yield with all the little growth. Probably will chop at day 63 or 66 depending on s few things

Chopped some more on day 65-67 two more too come down that have been in the dark for 4.5 days as it took me longer then expected to trim and I'm working all weekend. I did notice an increase in crystals and weight from a 3 day dark period.
