Looking good Verde. Suckes about the sativa plant. Oh well had to take one for the team. Theres not much room in there. The others will love you for it!
 
SEXY!!

" ... Thats why I keep the hood as low as possible and the canopy as even as possible, so I can bring the level of penetration down down into the plant..."

Light penetration into the female plants... I like it (and so do they, i'm sure)!! Great grow and nice poetic commentary.

I have seen a 250W HID setup in a 2' x 4' x 6' space before and I thought that was cramped... in all seriousness, you certainly seem to be making the most of the light with the cooled hood and LSTing. Great work.

Houston were getting frosty.

The smell, is TOTALLY like blueberry almost... with a smoother, silker... orgasmic tangerine smell in there.. almost makes the genetics worth it!! :)

They are starting to get resinous glands all over the leaves. To be honest I've never really had this, but have seen it happen with HID's. (this is my first HID/tent grow.. I've done CFL before and did surprisingly well)

Technically right now I have 83.5w per square foot in my tent :) Canopy temps are staying at 75F-77F... although the humidity stays around 50%-55%.. can't do anything about the humidity!


Anyway, the trichs are getting stalks and heads, and spreading out from the bug leaves to the tips :)


They are getting more medicinal looking by the day :)


Photo updates in a few days, probably after I water with plain water/gnatrol again..


Glad to say I still have like 4+ inches to raise the light, I'm raising them a half inch every 2-3 days on day 35ish(?) so I figure I should be well off! I continue to train down nugs, but try to do it slowly, as to not tie down a REALLY big nug WAY down under the canopy!

OK so I definitely have springtails...

I guess thats a sign I should let the soil dry out more? :lol:

supposedly they dont hurt your plant, and only feed on decaying organic matter.. idk though I don't like bugs period!

Sr. Verde -

Props on the garden, just read all 20 pages. I'm new to the site, but like you, have a couple cfl grows under my belt and am now runnin my first HID setup.

Crazy how you had to chop your girls so far into flowering!! I have never seen anything done like that. I'm glad they're turning out for you. I've read of people cloning off of flowering plants before with no problems, and the way I figure it you just took some BIG fucking clones lol, so hopefully no hermie probz -- they look great.

Anyways - I'm using a tent as well, and ever since the last cup have been curious about TD (interesting your not to satisfied w/ the genetics) so I'll def. be following along. Good Luck!

Day 41! Today!


*SUPPOSEDLY* 29 days left!

I could start flushing in 2 weeks if I see some pistils turning colors! This plant is supposed to have some bright orange/red pistils.'


Bringing some chunky nug pics for you guys, it gets exciting now!

I'm totally running out of height though LOL I have like 3-4 inches, I think they should practically completely stop around day 40 though. At least for the bud structure, just chunking out now I hope
