hey thanks bro! at least one person has noticed all my hard work! the darkroom is meh. i would invest in a different tent if i were you. it has a lot of light leaks, and the material is thin, the stitching strait sucks, and its kinda flimsy. i bought it after so many people on here were practically sucking its dick...but it doesnt live up to the hype at all in my view. iv heard good things about the homebox....

ahh i figured...the only thing i like about the dark room is that they have the 9 foot by 9 foot one..where you could put 2 4 by 8 ebb and flo tables in there...

however if you want the original...Hydrohut is it..very heavy duty vinyl... i have the 2 by 4 one and the deluxe one..4 by 8..very well built and light prof...also with those clones you go..were they already rooted? to fill your space up you could use at least 40 plants... vegg those clones out and clone those...good luck..

yea, i bought the clones from a medical marijuana dispensary. they werent looking too good when i bought them, but i was desperate for more plants, and i was sure they would recover. they are actually doing a lot better now, and bushing up quite a bit...and i think 40 plants would be insane!! haha. i like to let the plants breathe a little bit...

Bagelthief · Oct 6, 2008

hey guys. i just wanted to post an update. day 21 and counting. the clones have made a significant recovery. all will produce. i also picked up one last clone today, purple kush. it is very healthy, and i found it at my new official MMD. this brings my official immature plant count to 12, the maximum im legally allowed to have. i have decided to try something with this grow, instead of doing what i said i would in the original post (mix ff and bmo nutes) i have already started feeding half the plants only organics (Super Plant Tonic, Grow it Green, Liquid karma) and the other half the original planned SPT, GIG, LK, and FFGB) ill see if there is any difference in yield, potency, taste, etc. here are the pics. im very proud of their rate...btw, iv had the screen on my digi broken since several months ago...thats why sometimes my pics arent the best...i cant see what im focusing on) ill just post everything i took. please comment on my plants and let me know what you think...

overall looking very good

careful with the nutes.. better less than to much

love yr aircon - that rocks

is it noisy?

Bagelthief · Oct 6, 2008

yea, i really do have to be careful... i got very very slight nute burn on the leaf tips...maybe the last .25 centimeters is burned. no biggie though...and yea, the AC is totally awesome. i will never grow without one again...they are kinda of power hungry, but it really is the best way to go to get the perfect temps. not to mention you can get a dual hose design, so you can maintain an atmosphere for co2 supplementation (im upgrading to dual hose when i flower hopefully). they arent too loud, but i kinda like the the noise they make, because its a nice white noise to block out the neighbors sounds (and i live next door to the appt manager! lol. we actually share a wall!!) thanks again man, your like the only person following my grow...

lol

u got balls - ur set up rocks

and by the way - i was most impressed with the way u fixed ur fuse problem

that tread is a riu-classic!!

rock on!!

:mrgreen:

Bagelthief · Oct 7, 2008

lol. i hope i get a few more subscribers...although it is good documentation for personal use as well. i would be so happy to get between 2 and 3 ounces per female. im shooting for 5 though...hopefully i can set up my c02 system, then i can easily see at least 5 per fem. yea bro, that fuse was a bitch, but it ended up working out nicely.

hey how do you get your post count to stay at 69? hahaha!

naa not at all..40 plants would be on the low side for that giving hut...you veg for a week and flower them off...if it was me..i would have a 4 by 8 flood table filled with hydroton and have 120 plants...you could easyly pull 6 to 7 lbs with that setup and the giving lights....
if your looking to get 4 ozs per plant... you may have to get some bigger lights..400 watts are good but still there only 400 watts and are mainly inificient 600 digs or 1000s... for 4 ozs a plants your pots look too small....you gonna need 5 to 7 gallon pots... veg to 24 inchs.. and loyypop them and flower... good luck..

Bagelthief · Oct 8, 2008

damn bro, you know your shit huh? i am definitely moving to hydro next round...7 or 8 pounds every 2 months doesn't sound too bad to me! haha. in the future my setup will include (4) 600's hanging in the same way as the 400's + a smaller veg tent. your not kidding about the pots being too small...i can see a shit load of roots coming out of the drainage holes at the bottom of all the pots. would you suggest a full transplant or would cutting the bottom off my current pots and just putting them ontop of bigger ones work? and if i veg to 24in, how tall would they grow in flower? i only have 7 feet of space, and when you factor in that the lights need to be about 24 inches away, plus the size of the much bigger pots that i will transplant to...hmm. im thinking i will only have about 3 feet of actually plant space...

naturalhigh · Oct 8, 2008

what strains do you have in there? get some 5 to 7 gallons..you come chop some of the roots but i would just veg them all to take more cuttings then do like 9 plants a 600 soo in your case i would do like 18 to 26 plants in 16 lter square pots.... or flower what you have ...and make a mom for next time soo your ready to rock it now with all clones....and if your do buy clones ... most of the CC clubs have very good clones...iidk.. you may have to call around or ask some locals...

the strains i currently have are: (2) Fromseed-White Widow (2) FS-Ice (1) FS-Crystal (3) FromClone-Bubblegum (3) FC-Strawberry Cough (1) FC-Purple Kush.

the pk is the latest addition, and she looks a little under the weather...more yellow in color and has some burning on the leaves.

yea, im definitely going to stack the current pots onto smaller pots for a little extra root room.

check out how they look now...i got really stoned and started doodling on the pics...figured i would start to number the plants so its easier to grasp what you are seeing...these were taken yestermorrow, the 13th. let me know what you guys think...

in other news, i just won a Green Air Co2 CD-18 Generator off ebay for the super price of 150 bones. those things retail over 750 new!!! just need a controller now...

Bagelthief · Oct 14, 2008

i think the plants grown from seed look so beautiful...especially #4, she looks like an infinitely blooming, giant green flower...haha. all of the plants are anywhere between 10-14 inches tall, and all are about twice as wide as they are tall.

onebyte · Oct 14, 2008

bearo420 · Oct 14, 2008

onebyte · Oct 14, 2008

ahhhhhh Gianna :dunce:

Bagelthief · Oct 14, 2008

hey thanks for looking guys!

onebyte, i hope to start flowering when the tallest plant gets to 24 inches...that should put most of the plants between 20 and 22 inches or so. the card is awesome! im curious to know how much more paranoid id be if i was risking incarceration!! lol...

hey bearo, what was your set up like (lights, medium, nutes, strain, # of plants, and area) and how much did you yield in your tent grow? do you have a journal?

click my name. then on my profile click view all threads started by"
ive got pics of my grow life from day 1 till now and i did 2 complete grows with 4x4 but i always slack off at the end with pics and posts cause it gets busy, but i did show one harvest. im not trying to sell and i dont get a hard on bragging so i never really weighed complete i just smoked from the moment i could before they were even fully cured. anyway id guess i had at least 5 ounces though of good smoke from the tent. im aiming for close to a pound from my room split this time.
