Dillweed I'm speechless you have nailed this one. Looks so beautiful!

Very impressive!! Can't wait to watch the conclusion of this grow!! +rep

Thanks, everyone! I just gave +Rep to everyone that posted since my last update. You guys all rule.

wkd plants Dill....I really want to grow some white widow now. and some Northern Lights maybe. Get right back to the old skool!!

@ SnowWhite, Dill has inspired me to grow some WW too I have a feminized seedling just starting to go nuts...All thanks to Dill

ya i love my WW so far its good shit

Thanks, guys!

I just gave them their first flush today. I poured three gallons of plain water into each of them followed by another gallon of water with a tablespoon of molasses in it. It took forever to do this for 20 plants. Probably about three hours but I did stop and re-stake some of the plants as well tie up some of the lower branches so they are up and get more light these last two weeks.

I also decided to keep my light cycle at 12/12 for the last two weeks of flowering instead of scaling it back to 10/14 like I did last time. The reason for this is that in a two week period with an extra two hours of light each day, the plants will literally be getting more than two whole extra days worth of light.

what bout 14/10 or maybe even 13/11? oh and do you clone? if so can you tell me about your clone setup?

Looks great man. Gonna get a good crop from this

I did cut a bunch of clones this time, but I neglected them. I gave them to a friend of mine a few weeks ago. They were in pretty bad shape. I'm going to be purchasing a smaller tent and grow out some mothers next time around to save myself a few weeks between each harvest. I think I'll be all set for a while after I harvest these 20 monsters though.

Simply gorgeous Dill,
Very clean and productive setup man.
I'm speechless everytime I see your pics.. Can't wait for the next one.

wow nice plants dude!

Dillweed, if you could do it again.. would you go 2x1000W or 3x600W?
Cause I'm planning on starting a bigger grow (like yours) and I'm in between the 2 possibilities..
I'll be checking up to see if you have an answer for me..

Cheers bro,

just finished reading both your journals....WOW! very insperational man....Def subscribed to see ther finished product!! and def ++ rep on that exhaust set-up simple, yet brilliant!!!! love that 2 1000hps in 1 tent set-up...thinking about doing that in my homebox XL, 56'x56"x78.75" using 2 radiant 6 reflectors with hortilux bulbs via 3 icebox heat exchagers to water cool the lights, (1 for ea reflector with insulated ducting and a y connector via insulated ducting to exit side of tent and the other will be mounted outside the exiting side of the tent to act as an ac for room and the room..something like those lights dude mentioned his friend had in vegas, 4 damp rids, a co2 boost bucket system, 440 cfm exhaust fan with a can 66 filter attached, (or may try your exhaust system set-up!!) .....GROW, GROW, GROW!!!!!!
