250w HPS Club And Help Guide

Pics as promised

Mothers.. getting too big but I will be getting some clones from them today or tomorrow..



MM (left 4weeks, right 2 weeks) under T5 6x54 watt 35k.

4 weeks 2 weeks

Calling these ES for the guy that gave me the clones, not sure what strain but he's been cloning it for 20+ years and it is awesome
smoke.. actually numbs your mouth a bit (left 5 weeks, right 3 weeks)

5 weeks bud shots

3 weeks, from the same clones but I let this veg the extra 2 weeks and it's going to be a monster



Catmint forthe kitties...lol


BTW: my old skool buddy says we could cross these by flowering a clone of each and taking them to a different location and stressing them till they flip.. anyone know if this would work?

Look good bro.

Well guys here is whats going on in my tent right now. The first pic is of all 3 girls and the next one is my big fat girl afghani(afghan kush special). 3rd pic is my best one flowering one by far it's skunk aka shorty and the next 3 are off shorty also. She is called shorty because of her short fat stance. She has been short and fat from the get go. The afghan kush special was fimed and now she has 4 heads! the top of her is like a huge bush!

You have some N claw starting on the one up front in this picture...

Thanks bro! I'm getting ready to feed them dyna gro bloom and dyna gro grow with protekt on Sunday when I water again. I was wondering what exactly made it do that and now I know lol thanks man!

My skunk in the background has a weird pheno type, she keeps stretching and stretching with little popcorn buds all over her and then the skunk on the left of the picture is make one main cola with a few lil popcorn buds below. I think she got more of a indica but I'm not sure it's the first time for me growing these.

60k on a loft factory...how big was his fucking loft!!!!

Like i say, mine has just given me permission to do a couple of larger grows under a 400, store up some jars, and then stop while we think about relocating next summer. When we move I plan to set something up, having it running for a couple of months without her noticing, the tell her, and maybe sell a couple of bags to buy her something nice. I only grow for personal, but always try and sell a little to one or 2 close friends, and give her some money for electricity and take her out to dinner. Amazing how her morals fade away with just simple actions....

Also running 6 plants under my 250w with 4x30CFL, one in each corner of 2x2, and they are doing fine. Just don't try and fit 6 monsters under there.

Got my humidity down to 68% today, with open windows and plenty of moving air. Gonna rig up the second extractor later and see how that goes

he did it properly. had a sealed room setup, fully insulated, co2 you couldnt hear it standing right underneath it. to be honest if i was gonna earn enough from it i would probably rent a place on the side and convert it. but i dont have the capital to invest and certainly cant explain another full house running costs going missing every month, and i dont really know anyone with the gumph or the interest to invest that much upfront, cant do it here as have sprogs running about.

I was also thinking about renting a small 1 bed flat, and put 3 x 600 tent kits in there, get 2 harvests and move out after 6 months, but realise it just isn't worth it. I'm happy with my personal grow, and I'll just have to keep earning my money the hard way . Plus, I'd rather have a small grow at home for years, then a big grow for a short time. Or as the old saying goes...

"A young Bull and his grandfather are out walking, and they come to the brow of the hill. They look to down and see a field full of cows. The young bull says "Grandad, why don't we run down the hill and fuck a cow!". The grandfather pauses and says "No boy, let's walk down, and fuck them all."

Also, what is a Sprog??

a child lol. got 3 between me n the missus but my 2 only stay every other weekend.

if i do end up with the flat idea it will be 2 full 3-4kw rooms and another for veg and mothers, im still trying to work out the profit that could be made in a year from a setup like that. im happy with the grow for myself but it would be nice to pull in a bit of extra cash.

hence the large scale im looking to do outdoor next year. just got 6 bags of plagron allmix to use as a base soil, gonna start getting the ingredients for subcools supersoil and get it mixed up by new year, let it sit for a while then get some seeds-a-going. im looking forward to the challenge.

Hahaha, i've already been told that it stops when the kids come, but I've already started protesting. and i'm sure that as long as it is out of their site, a small loft grow or something, I'll get away with it.

It would be worth it, but if you are gonna go that big, you really have to consider the risk, and make sure you move some household items into the flat, especially a TV and radio, left on timers, changed regularly, and ,make sure you spend some time at the flat. When you bump into the neighbours introduce yourself and say you do shifts as a driver, random patterns, then they won't worry that they don't see you coming or going much. I've given it a lot of thought, but also don't have the funds, and to be honest, the bottle. Should the police knock down my door, i'm happy to get collared with a small tent, light and a few plants... but a dedicated factory?? Unlikely they'll put you in for a first offence, but the wrong judge on the wrong day, or during anti-drug month and it could be bad news

Folks, as long as I have been part of RIU and the 250 Club the focus or topic has always been on growing. I'm not sure if it is an RIU rule, taboo or just the elephant in the room but the topic in some recent posts might be better done by PM. Just my $0.02, slam me if you want or call me paranoid, but I feel that mentioning selling might just sway the scrutiny that I am sure sites like this one receive..

Encore,encore, encore.

On a side note girls got watered with dyna gro protekt and bloom and I've got to say I have never seen a plant look so good right after a watering.

Hope your hear all week don't need anyone disappearing on us. Oh btw did you ever try hooking up your other extractor?

well picked up a sack of gsc other day and found 3 good seeds hope they pop would love to add some cookies to the rotation.would have to toss another strain out though..already 5 strains.

yeah fair point grazz..... let my mind run away with itself.

im only a personal grower. im just looking to get my 12 month supply in one hit so i dont need to have a grow going continuously all year round. im no dealer. its far too easy to end up locked away and like i said, ive got a family to think about.

Only in Cali....

After croping, the fresh/green weight was 2.45 lb. Five days drying in 74 deg F and 45% humidity, stems removed, the dry weight is; Terminal Buds 131 grams-4.67 oz.
Popcorn and small buds-96 grams-3.42 oz. So the total yield was 227 grams or 8.19 oz.

The terminal colas are lying in the plastic boc, the popcorn budz are in the Gal storage bag. All immediately went into Qt mason jars to cure.

Smoke test...small amount in glass pipe...burns well, evenly. Dosent pop or crackle and leaves a fine silver ash. (I attrubute this to the first flush at veg to flower and the final flush 10 days before croping), the saste is smoothe and the boquet smells of pine, cedar and camphor. Not much odor unless pinched/mashed, then it becomes much stronger.
There is no metalic /fertilizer taste.

One toke...heady buzz almost immediately,,,second toke, more intense head stone. Five minutes later it is creeping into a body stone...I expect some couch lock might be all up in there if you hit to heavy. Pretty nice all around. Thankful to have the medicine for arthritis pain.(knees, neck, wrists, ankles).
Wish I could share a fatty with everyone in the 250 Club.

BTW..It is all now in Mason jars to cure for several days. I may vacuume pack it after that and keep it in the frige. That worked very well last year...potent and fresh when opened.
