Hello fellow rollitupians. I’ve been using this site for years to help with my medical and would like to post a journal to show off my babies and help answer some questions if ppl have.

I have been growing in the NW for over 8 years now, using multiple fertilizer brands (GH:AN:H&G:MILLS:HUMBOLDTS OWN:etc....) and multiple styles of growing (LST:HST:SCROG:SOG)

My states major hydroponics equipment supplier just so happens to have lived a hop and skip away since i was a wee lad, allowing me to gain decades of knowledge in a matter of years, and equipment for dirt cheap.

We shoot for at least 1 lb per 1000w, and one plant per 1000w. If you would like tips and/or advice feel free to ask openly.

This grow journal is for a small 10' by 5' grow room
(2) 1000w HPS
I run a DTW (DRAIN.TO.WASTE) style using PRO MIX HP and 20 gallon smartpots for bud
Two pumps in each res. (one always running constantly mixing H2O+ferts, and the second one on a timer
to water three times daily)
PH: 5.8-6.2 (check daily!) PPM: 800-1300 (start at 800 and work way up to 1300 by week 5 then back to
800)
Water Temp: 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit
Current room temp: 75 during the day & 68 at night (will Lower avg temp by 10 degrees throughout
flowering)
Current room humidity: 50% (will Lower avg humidity to 30% throughout flowering)

For such a small room I use CO2 bags instead of burner

Current FERT Lineup:
WEEK 1&2: (House & Garden) Aqua Flakes A+B
(MILLS) Start-R[use on week 3 also]

WEEK 3&4: (House & Garden) Aqua Flakes A+B
(MILLS) C4
(HUMBOLDTS OWN) Snowstorm Ultra + Crystal Burst (use both @ half rate)

WEEK 5: (House & Garden) Aqua Flakes A+B
(House & Garden) Top Booster
(MILLS) C4
(HUMBOLDTS OWN) Snowstorm Ultra + Crystal Burst

WEEK 6-8:(House & Garden) Aqua Flakes A+B
(ATAMI) Bloombastic

FLUSH: (CUTTING EDGE) Sugaree


Before i throw my plants into flowering i like to give them 4 to 6 days of 15 hours lights on 9 hours lights off. This middle stage allows the plants to better adapt to their new home before i switch over to 12/12.

The plant on the left is Trainwreck, and on the far right is Jackpot Royale, put into flower 7/21/15
Trainwreck
Harvest: 9/15/15
Jackpot Royale Harvest: 9/27/15

The middle plant is Snowdawg II, which is currently on her last week. (Single budded plant is Medusa, waiting to get trimmed)
Also put up pics of some outdoor plants i potted as clones in June and let grow naturally (rainwater only) just for fun.
Also pictures of some clones. PITBULL clones on the left (put into cups 7/19/15) and 3 random clones from
JACKPOT ROYALE, BLACKBERRY KUSH, and CINEX



Will post more pics soon & pics of 2+ pound monster plants

Been really busy lately, heres an update:

Cut dried and cured 10 oz medusa(pic) and 7oz snowdawg 2 (will put up pic tomorrow super frosty :hump:, both were in ten gallon buckets under a 1000w hps

Trainwreck and Jackpot one week into flowering, starting their stretching phase
My babies are starting to grow up too :)

also some pics from another setup with all the bells and whistles.
just moved 6 plants into flowerings

With all the right gear you should be able to grow 2-3lbs per plant. We recently harvested 13lbs from 6 sour diesel.
pics of auto timers/temp/co2/ac mini-split controls along with some 6' tall plants 4 weeks into flowering
