brettsog, and hettyman are 2 different ppl :) but i'm not offended

Thanks, but i'm not sure i'll quite make it, either way I'll be happy.

Gonna find myself a 400w thread to share the love in now, cos my second tent just arrived!! I won't go into it on this thread, but if anyone is interested:

Sorry guys, my bad. No offense meant. I was toasted from clelbrating a good harvest. I was/am obviously confused.

Yep, Hettyman, you were closest on the weight. My wild ass guess was between 5-7 oz. based on last years CFL grow. The 250 HPS rocks, for my small area.
Good luck with finishing you two girls this week. Hope you get an OZ+ per plant.

good. great . grand stoned! yeah preflowers are perfectly normal in veg like ace said its just letting you know its mature enough to flower. over here smoking some fire pre98bubba , and mixing it up with the sfvog x willie nelson. i truly like the smell of that sfv og x willie, sour grapefruit w low under tones of og. the 98 gives you insta-munchies. the first thing i find my self doing weather im hungry or not is going st8 to the kitchen after smoking it.

Yeah pre-flowers are normal. With regards to your auto's, i've found that the ladies go through a huge growth spurt the first couple of weeks of flower, and presume auto's will do the same. I've not looked much into auto's, I don't get them, just grow them till half the height you want them, and change your tiimer.

Yo Ace, was thinking bout you earlier, hope you're well.

Nothing much exciting happening here, smoking some nice cheese that i bought :( , got 2 plants to harvest in the next week, then have endless sweet fruity mary J to last :)

I'm doing good man. I'm stoned off my ass watching 2012:Doomsday lol. I know what I'm doing the night the world is suppose to end. I'm rolling a fatty and going to sleep lol.

Why you go buying some cheese hetty? What plants are coming up to harvest bro?

I had to lst one of my girls last night :( She wouldn't stop growing! She was growing 4" a day! She was just to tall. But on a side note she responded to it very well and is much happier :)

Hopefully I will no longer have ph problems and my girls will love me even more!

Sup 250'ers. Glad to see everyone doing well and having success in their gardens. Dr. Kund, I am very impressed and also very jealous, near 9 oz is so damn good. Props man on your first and wildly succesful HPS grow. Well done! :clap:

I harvested my 2 last night at day 65 from flip. Both look to have finished up nicely and trichs are near perfect at about 75% cloudy. Definitely going to be my best harvest yet, in overall weight and quality. I'm stoked to get a final weight. I'm hoping for 1.5-2oz on the Blueberry and 2-3oz on the Mystery. I'm lowballing my guess I think, but I am terrible at guessing weight.

Thanks to everyone here, your posts are always entertaining and informative.

Blueberry




Mystery Clone




The popcorn mostly from the Blueberry

Thanks cbt. I hand water and with the perlite hempy buckets drainage is excellent. The only time I have slight problems is when I flush, I plug the drain hole and flood the entire bucket. Still I never lose more than a couple chunks per watering.

Stoney...Nice looking plants bro!!! I'm wish mine would hurry along lol. Excited to see the weight on those girls.

What kind of perlite are you using man?

Has anyone had much experience with bluelab pens? I'm thinking of getting the bluelab calibration kit but not sure if I need everything in it or if there is something cheaper that works just as good.

Thanks for helping out guys with the 250! It's been an awesome experience. Don't know why I didn't use hps before. Never ever will I go back :)

Thanks guys I will let you know on the weight and smoke report. The Blueberry is always good, sweet and potent, and this looks and smells even better than my last batch. The mystery clone is really nice to look at and was crazy sticky when I trimmed her. She has kept her sweet/sick/rotten/fuel smell and should smoke nice.

giggles, I am not familiar with the bluelab pen but I use the hell out of my milwaukee 600. For a cheap pen I am really satisfied. Try as I may to blame the pen, every time I clean and calibrate, it tests spot on.

Lol I have a 600 as well but I just wanted a little more something. You are right I am very impressed with what the 600 has done but I wanted temp/tds/ph I wanted everything and heard some great reviews about blue lab so I thought what the hell lets give it a go lol
