This is our first grow. It's indoor hydro medical headband (northern California). We are beginning our fifth week of flowering. We have long awaited this grow and we intensely studied before we began anything, but we have to keep on the down-low, resulting in no outside feedback. So we'd love to hear what some fellow patients and growers alike have to say to us. Thanks!

EDIT: We switched from T-5 to 600 watt HPS (13 light/11 dark) about five weeks ago. Bud development began about three weeks ago.

We are going to switch our light cycle from 13/11 to 12/12 in around two weeks for increased resin production before harvest. Does anyone have some experience with this variation of light cycle? Results? We've heard and read good things.

Hey everyone. Here are some updated pictures from today. Almost five weeks into flowering, about to add another hour of night to their light cycle. Also switching to our Grand Finale nutes soon.

Just a side note after too many broken air stones... http://www.walmart.com/ip/Aqua-Culture-Bubble-Aquarium-Stone-1-ct/10532630

This is the best air stone we have used so far. Only one side means the water very easily rinses through the whole stone quickly (leaving no residue) and it is way harder to break. Not to mention it really competes with hydro store prices (especially if you just walk out with them... for fuck's sake, it's Wal Mart). Also, there isn't a little piece of plastic planted into the end of the stone, meaning it can fall out and fall apart. The plastic part is built on so you'd really have to TRY to break this thing.

Just a head's up! In case you hate air stones as much as we do.

Nice buds, but you shouldn't steal bro, it's bad juju.

Thanks man. However, I feel like Wal Mart is bad juju. For the whole world, the people who live on it, and for the future of humanity... Little independently owned hydro store theft? Now that's bad juju.

I agree on the WalMart thing, I won't go there, or Sam's because they're evil. The plants look good though, what do you have, a few weeks left?

Hey everyone sorry we haven't been on here in awhile. Things have been busy and we just planted six new clones... three blackberry kush and three northern lights. As far as results from our headband crop, the product is top quality. We never weighed everything out total when it was dry, but we definitely yielded over half a pound. We'll upload some pictures tomorrow. The smell and taste is unlike any other strain and the high is terrific. The root structure in our air pots was also incredible... again, pictures tomorrow. Thanks for staying posted everyone!

Ok guys here is a picture of one of our root clusters. This is only part of the root structure left in the pots... this is just the part that stayed whole. We'll get some pictures of the bud soon along with a link to our new journal. Thanks for staying posted everyone. :]

Thanks for the input jzs147. We topped two of those plants and left the rest. This grow we are trying LST and supercropping. Check it out https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/418031-northern-lights-blackberry-kush-coco.html

Final product! One of the cans sitting around curing.
