150w HPS Club: Inspirational Resource

Here's another update for ya...3 plants at 56 days flower under a cooltube 150w HPS...im thinking of letting these girls go longer, I dont have the ratio of amber trichomes like I want. The first 2 pics are the aurora, next 3 are the bubble dust, next 3 are Mazaar and the last 1 is all plants. Im thinking im gonna take it a day at a time and keep checking the trichomes. Wish me luck. thanks.

Still looking great boss. Just keep checkin those trichs and they'll tell ya. I'll be curious to see how much you pull off of those ladies. Those buds look good and tight. Keep up the good work.

what're the genetics of the bubble dust? the main cola on that thing looks tasty.

Cool... looks like I can be a member of this club. Here is my cabinet with a 150w hps. I am currently germinating two white rhino seeds. Wish me luck

The genetics of the bubble dust are angel dust and bubblegum, if I rub a leaf my fingers smell like grape bubblegum, real trippy. Im hoping the trichs start to amber up more, im looking at obtaining a decent couch lock high. Thanks Butters and BC for the comments, im really curious to see my final yield, its getting hard to be patient.

Dude your closet is roughly the same size as mine. There is no reason you should be using such big pots unless that is the cabinet you plan on keeping your mothers in. Other wise you should easily be able to fit 4-6 plants (using 3 gallon pots) in that closet. Just a suggestion.

3 Gallon is considered the "optimum size". You can go bigger and that will help you should you decide to veg for longer then say 30 days (I did make that number up on the spot so do feel free to call me out on it). Different plants have different rates of growth. I personally do not like to use the bigger pots because should you need to flush them you need to flush 2 to 3 times the amount of water through that the pot can hold.

Example : 5 gallon pot requires 10 to 15 gallons of water to be ran through it to flush it properly.

That is an OBSCENE amount of water. Absolutely OBSCENE in my opinion. It took me roughly 1 and a half hours to run 6 gallons of water through my 3 gallon pot. I'm sure this could have been sped up by putting holes in the bottom of my pot instead of on the bottom sides but hey at least now for my next grow I will pre-drill holes in the bottom.

If I were you and this is your first grow run 12/12 from seed or do 21 days of vegging all in 3 gallon pots. This way you can be sure your plants wont become root bound and you will still be able to flush them in a decent amount of time.

Harvested my 2 6" O.G. Kush plants today. I was planning on taking them into week 10 but after finding some spider mites this morning they got the cut at week 9.

hey eveyone,i just started my new journal.its a 150watt hps grow,the strain is the church frome ghs(clones) i also have some fresh cuttings for the next crop and to grow one for a mother plant.i also have 2 deiselryders in a dwc system that i made myself.this is my first time with hydro and 2nd grow total so im not expecting much,if any one wants to check it out and give some advice or anything that would be great.

Well finally im at my plants maximum flowering period. Tonight signifies the end of 9 weeks. Im still a little hesitant on chopping just yet but im seeing tell tale signs that these ladies are reaching the end. As I have been peering through my pocket microscope, ive been watching the thrichomes age and from what I can tell, it looks as though they're about a 50/50 cloudy/amber, but with only looking through the micro its not always right since I also saw plenty of clear. But they look done and im ready. So tomorrow night the 11th im cutting them down and beginning my drying/curing process. I am going to post pics after I chop and manicure and give a wet weight before drying. Here my final pics of them before chopping. The first 2 are the aurora clone, the next 3 are the bubble dust, the next 3 after that are the mazaar and the last one is all plants. Thanks for viewing and stick around for the pre drying weigh in.

Just finished my second grow under 150. I chopped last night and I have some nice huge nugs. I can not wait to test it out. This is my second grow I added another 150 to the system and let the plant go an extra 2 weeks and it made a huge difference.

Peace
