Haha yeah the problem is I have too many females for now... although when I get moved next month into a house and have a fully dedicated grow room I will probably have room for a few more cuts. At the moment I have more plants than light. And of course I got my 3 TGA seed packs waiting to get busted out :) So excited to get moved. The plants have their own room now but still working to keep it minimized as best I can given I have too many females... can't wait til the new area is set up. We've been out looking at rental places all day. I am thinking when I get moved depending on where we end up going I may set up the 400w for a side by side grow comparison and then later use it as a combo light. Ed Rosenthal said 400w HPS combined with 300w LED was the equivalent of a 1000w HPS. So curious to see how that would look as well.

Yeah but you'll be busting out of a small grow when you move. I really need to figure out which rom to keep and flower the rest to free up space. I'm so overgrown

Or maybe peanut butter jelly time?

Anyway, end of day 47. For sure they won't be day 56 finishers there's no way they are done in 1 week's time. Two weeks only a maybe still plenty of white pistils. These two were both late bloomers (buds not til after 2 weeks into flower) so maybe they'll both go 70 days... we'll see.

Thanks Ron... yeah they are looking pretty good, but not as good as I am going for. Still got some dialing in to do but it's all gonna pay off in the end since I have clones. Just realized my next TGA grow is probably going to be the first under 400w hps / LED combo which should be equivalent to over a 1K light -- that is going to be pretty damn kick ass when I get that kind of setup going. Hopefully by that time I'll really have things going in flower the way I would like to see it without fighting cal-mag deficiencies and too rapid of yellowing.

We need updates on your thread Ron -- like what your final dry weight was!

Where did you find square ones? That's what I've been looking for.

Sensei, last two plants will be cut tonight. We'll have to hang out when they're cured

Wish I'd seen those before I ordered mine... but I almost can't imagine using them without the handles... makes it much easier and they'd shift more i think if you picked'em up from the bottom. FYI the bottom stays wet forever. I am NOT sold on these smartpots. They stay wet for a long time with no place at the bottom for air to get in. I'll probably do a side by side comparison on clones down the road to see, but so far I still prefer my airpots. I have pretty much got the watering down to being very simple, although the airpots definitely waste more water than the smartpots. I think the airpots definitely help -- the plants don't get rootbound in the traditional sense they just build a big ass root/dirtball.

Will be taking week 7 pics shortly. My 12/12 schedule got ALL screwed up due to my doctor's appointment yesterday. I am going 11:45/11:45 for a couple of days to get the schedule back to normal. She seems to be responding well to the nutes I gave her yesterday (slightly larger than normal feeding of foxfarm big bloom). They are getting bigger and more reddening pistils now, but still way more white than red and a lot more bud material to be built I think #2 has about 2 weeks and #1 has 3 weeks. I am planning on moving in roughly 3 weeks. We scoped out homes today... probably gonna go with a 2 story that's big with a nice area to hide my grow... BUT there was a nice 1 story we liked... only problem was guess who lives next door? COUNTY SHERIFF! Dude even was getting stuff out of his cop car and said hi as he was doing it. It's completely crazy to rent a place next to a cop right???? :)

White Russian keeps looking sweeter and sweeter buds continuing to plumpen up at this point her buds are denser/thicker than the medicine man. Medicine Man must be going to be a long flowerer buds not thickening up a ton yet.

OGK #1 & #2 both thickening buds. Had to tie G13xHP down for an indica she is turning into a beast on height.

I must've missed something in the last few years... cmh??? is that some kind of metal halide? yeah my digital is a switchable digital 400w (can be either mh or hps) -- gonna hook it back up when we get moved and grow some super duper dank.

yea i thot about that as long as no algea or pathogeans dont attack the roots.i'm not worried about handles,i'll tend to it where it sits like always.i'm needing every sqare inch.i use a canadian soil mix thats the best i seen so far,,kinda like happy frog ,light and airy soil,,go great with these aeration pots.

The happy frog I recently got was not light and airy :) The roots organics I usually by is and so is the foxfarm light warrior.

Here are week 7 shots of the apollos. I took a lot of shots of the other plants but no time to post them due to lateness... will post in the morning when I can. The #2 is definitely looking like 1-2 weeks or so. I'm going to give her one last heavy feeding of big bloom this weekend for her final week.

Yeah...only thing I'd be afraid of is a k9 unit being at his house for some reason.

CMH is a Ceramic Metal Halide. Pretty sure it requires a magnetic ballast though.
