Bigbud 13 plants 400w hps flowering since March 28th.

ok this is going to be just pictures for now as i don't have time to type up my process but if i get time at work today i'll hop on.

title states most of it anyways.

thats a nice setup, looks good.

thanks orecal.

Ok so i guess i'll describe the box first. its 36x36x18 made outta thin particle board painted white on the inside. the cover is some white cloth i found at a fabric store not sure what its called but looks/feels like panda film like the grow tents are made out of. and just a black sheet over that to dull the light. i put eyelets thru both sheets and just have screws into the sides of the box to pull tight and seal.

the right side that rectangle hole goes to a carbon scrubber that is in another box outside this one. there is also another rectangle hole towards the top that you can't see. its a big scrubber and will prolly last me 5-6 flowering sessions before the carbon needs replacing.

i have a 400w hps forgot the brand right now... came from htg supply but they "upgraded" me they said and the HTG ballast. Also got the cool tube since my box is pretty small for a 400w.

fans.. i got a small one down to the left behind that sheet of cardboard. the plants were gettin shook around a lil much so i put that in there to direct the air up. then i have the fan you can see blowing up at the cool tube.

temperature lights on is 78.4*
lights off is 60*
humidity around 25%
ph is 7
feeding fox farm bigbloom and epsom salts right now. had a mag lock out.

plants are clones from a mother bigbud that was about 3-4 months old.

in the 3rd pic. what do you think is eating at that plant? i've checked if over and haven't found anything. few weeks back i found two actual spiders in there.. not spider mites. and just the other day saw two gnats that i killed.

any comments welcome good or bad. peace

oh and the two plants on the right were vegged 2 weeks more than the others. thats why they are LST'd down to make sure they fit.

i'm almost a week into flower now. do all the plants look like they will fit in the cab?

i believe they can grow up to be about 3-4" away from the light since i have it cooled so well.

but they've all gown up about 3-4" since the 28th... crazy growth rate right now

update.

11 days flowering.

hi mate nice plants you got there, how long did you veg them for?

3 on the far left are weak. thought about tossing them to make room for the big ones but didn't. let me know if i should have.

what you guys think? pretty crowded huh?

oh and the white box there is my new veg/clone/mother box just made it this weekend. got 3 blue mystic and 3 afghan kush germin soil style in there. prolly pop in 2-4 days.

oh and the down side to all this... i have no buds for 4/20... fresh out and town is dryyyyy

no bud thats a downer but at least with your beautiful plants and good setup you are going to be smoking some great bud in the near future lol

Nice little set up you have there

looks really good how do you like the foot print the cool tube leaves compared too the larger reflector type cooled? your plants look outstanding take care

well i have never had a regular hood. only the cool tube. for my sized grow space i like it alot. only seems to throw light where its needed and that makes for none wasted.

when i bought it i was only thinking to keep temps down, got it and noticed how it seemed about perfect.

thanks for the comp.

new pics in the AM.

they will be on day 40 tomorrow.
