It will be even better after taxes come in. We are getting 2 300 watt led panels. It will be epic. My plants were set up for micro grow his are going all out. They smell good and with the new light they will yield good bud. We've come a long way and I think I created a monster lol.

Got some new stuff to check out! I might have to log into real site instead of mobile to load pics.
E finally found a male! I wouldnt wish one on someone, but i am relieved he had one so he can see what it looks like. We have culled 2 males that were identical looking, probably dwc. There is one more that might probably be male but not 100 yet, im more like 87% sure lol. Tomorrow ill be able to see for sure. I might want to keep him though as he is totally different. The branches go straight up the main stem and its leafy as all hell tight nodes, but all branches are tight to the stem.
We have 5 or so fem that are around 1 meter+ in height, more than when i grew od! Im excited to see the turn out this time.

Biggest news is that i am working with HouYi lighting. I get to show you guys what these lights do! I have two 300 watt (3x100) 9 band leds. The rep helping me was pretty awesome and helpful. He also told me that his lights are very good for growing cannabis and he sent me some pics. That was pretty cool that they are working on specialized lights for cannabis. And they are blindingly bright.

Cabinet now includes:
600 watts led
415 watts cfl ± 15 watts (some are 23 watters some 26. 15 in total + 75 watt cfl) where on the light does it tell me the lumens, or whatever number im looking for thats not the watts?

I have quite a few other plants in flower aside from my 1m quartet i have 5 that are about 2 foot or so in varying degrees of bushy. A few clones that might not make it and a few leftovers from my microgrow. Starting to see bud sites popping. Hopefully f2 remains a strong 9 week finisher.

Ok. Took some measurements and i have news, good bad and ugly. Sounds like a movie title...

First of all, i smoked 7 blunts before i got a chance to go inside the flower room. Sorry. Would have pics, hell even a video up had i been a resident of earth.last night ahaha!

Took measurments. Room is exacly 3 foot wide. It is also 5 foot 6 inches tall and 6 feet long.
Im using
1750 x 9 lumens
1600 x 5 lumens
900 x 2 lumens
For my cfls. Got so high i didnt even count the blue light we got at walmart (walmart 2 foot floro tube light for vegging)
Those are just the cfls not including Led. I dont see the lumens on the packing sheets i got so looks like i gotta make a trip back out there.

The ladies are looking huge. Like im kind of scared huge. Like how many days are we gonna be trimming huge. Like how many smelly hippies can i hire on a short term basis huge. These indoor are bigger than when i flowered outdoor. Holy &#%$! Nodes tighter more dense and thicker stem etc.

My leds get hot enough to burn the buds, but not hot enough to cause serious damage. Lefty grew up and was pushing into the light and i have a dime (like change not 2.0 grams) size burn on the top. So small i didnt even cut it out. Broke her neck and tried to tie her a bit. She will resist i know... it took me about 2 minutes to pinch her neck it was so thick. I got sevral ladies fattening up not many of them pushing frost so i think we got 5 or 6 weeks left instead of 4 or 5. Some of them are bushing out a bit some just getting thick fat main colas and some popcorn below.

A lot of them are just super sexy fat bushy girls but mainly short.

So the bad news, i have to move out of where i am living because of someone elses irresponsibility, and i was almost gonna have to take my dog to the pound to get euthanized because of this carajo verga. I will be living with my parents for a little while til i get back on my feet, and as some of you may know my parents believe every negative thing about weed and disbelieve all the good things. My mom always makes me feel like i need a shower after an argument. I will be desperately looking for a good od spot if i cant secure the same one i had.
The ugly? news is that E is going to have to move as well so... we got C building me a nice room and hopefully its finished before harvest so i can throw something else in.

Have a question. Does anyone know where to find collodial silvers? And a "use" for it? I dont want to walk in any where and not have a cover story for why im getting it. Id probably just start stuttering and run out of the store.

Anyway the ladies are getting there. Just... a... little... while... longer.... hate.the.wait.

It seems there may have been a problem with the RIU site, and I have started to get updates on it now, so hopefully everything is fixed, and I can post. Unfortunately it has been a few weeks and my pics are neither time stamped, nor labeled, so I'll try my hardest to make sure that I put them in a somewhat chronological order. I am using HouYi 300 watt 9 band panels, and 15 cfls of various wattage, combined lumens of cfls is around 23300 or so and have been flowering for about 5 weeks now. Getting down to last couple weeks on the fast finishers, and probably 3-4 weeks left on the longer finishing more sativa dominate ladies. I have been using organic nutes this go round, all seeds were bred by me. I'm needing to find some quick release nutes for these last couple weeks so they get absorbed by roots instead of being left in my soil.
Now for porn. Gonna start with dwc.
She is around a 8-9 week finish. About a 60-40 S-I and incredibly frosty and sour cheese smell. She needs an increase of mg after week 4, the moms the seeds came from were very resistant to cold, heat, mold, pests, nearly anything bad. The offspring is even more vigorous. We had about 2 months veg time, which was the same as when I planted mom outdoor last year. Her offspring are taller, fatter, tighter nodes. Absolutely tall dense Christmas tree structure to her. Well over 4 foot tall in about 2 months veg makes this lady kinda scary, in a good way, and a 1.5 foot stretch to her. She doesn't stretch too terribly after flip, just get fatter and fuller.
Molokai kush x double white cheese
I tried experimenting with these. I had 2 but due to room constraints and time, cut one down and was unable to do more than the initial fim. This was my first time fimming, and I'm going to stick with the topping technique from now on, the ones I topped were fuller and more thick branches. Just overall seemed better. They retained the super amount of early sugar, and the sweaty musky sour smell that only us true ganja connoisseurs would love. About a 4 inch stretch after flip, she was about 8 inches before that.
Kandy kush x ?
The original version was an abysmal failure that gave me about a blunt and a half of the most sugary bud I have seen, yet was chock full of seeds. This is the only survivor. The father was either dwc, black Russian, or wild Thai. This one was scrogged to 14 tops, and is an absolute bush of fat fluffy buds which are sweet smelling and a hint of cotton candy like the original kandy kush. About a 6 inch strech, she doubled in size, and got fuller as well.
Dinafem white widow x Hazeman DWC
These ladies are full of fat round puffy buds, and like the original mom, need a bit of extra nitro. They are crystally white, smallish buds just like mom WW. Kind of a sweet sour smell to her. Slightly stretchy, but partially my fault because the lights were a bit high. More stretchy after flip, gained about a full foot.
Finally we have a few house seeds
These grew straight up, no branches, and really fat buds. They seemed stretchy at first, but after flip the buds swelled fast and fluffy to fill the gap. One male was about 4 1/2 foot tall and super dense short stubby branches off the main thick stem. Wish I could have saved his pollen to make more since the nodes were so dense.

Did my first harvest from this run, total wet weight was..... 269.5, plus the earlier harvest of 27.7 grams. Still have one complete plant I haven't even touched, still waiting for it to swell. I'm having trouble uploading on my windows phone, so hopefully in a week I will have that problem fixed or at least have pics up here. I've got them all on twitter tho, if you wanna look me up there, @hempwoodforest

some pics of molokai kush2 x dwc
super frosty, stinky like cat piss, short in stature like the original mk2, she is still mainly white hairs at week 10, which is much longer than mk2 (8.5 weeks from flower to finish)

WP_20140428_005[1].jpg WP_20140428_026[1].jpg WP_20140428_041[1].jpgWP_20140428_037[1].jpg WP_20140428_033[1].jpg
these are pics of dwc 1 & 2. one of them I cut off the cola early to make the lower flowers bigger, which worked. then it seemed to get nitro deficient, and also I had a small mold problem, if not for the mold, I would have cut it down about 5 days later, as much of it was only a week or so from finishing. still an impressive yielding girl.
WP_20140428_056[1].jpg
bagseed 2. not sure how big the cola was, I think about 25 grams or so. total harvest was roughly 35-40 grams from her. large egg shaped buds up and down the whole stem, sweet skunky smell to her. she succumbed to the mold, and we had to cut her down. she was finished anyway, we were going to try to reveg her, as her structure (completely covered in buds from top to bottom) was worth saving.

bagseed 1. ipressive 38.9 gram cola!
DSCN4916[1].JPG
dwc2 sativa dominate pheno. so far week 11 and not a single pistil is red (a couple have halfway started to die off)

DSCN4892[1].JPG
dwc1 super dense with flowers, very strong branches too. thick as my thumb main stem, some of the branches are thick as my little finger.

more pics of mk2xdwc

few random pics. so...

first harvest ( 4/12) was the top cola of dwc1. We wanted something to smoke on 4/20! and man it was good! 27.7 grams of about 10-12 days premature buds, as well as some wwxdwc which is where the mold originated, and was cut down very prematurely in an attempt to stop the mold spreading. It stopped almost all of of the mold, but some of the plants close by showed a little damage (dwc2 still green as ever seems pretty resistant!)

second harvest was 4/20, and we cut down bagseed 2 (starting to show small signs of molding, and drying leaves, cut down as precaution, and it was 2-3 days from finish anyway) also I cut one cola off the candy kush, for a taster :) MK1xdwc was cut down this day too, about 14 grams of some solidly stinky weed, the only thing with a stronger smell than this is mk2xdwc.

third harvest was 4/27, cut down bagseed 1 (leaving bottom 2-3 nodes to try to reveg) solid 38.9 gram top cola (sweet skunky smell to her)
cut off bottom half of bagseed 2 (was going to reveg, but SOMEONE decided to drown it with water, and I was not going to risk more mold)
cut down 80% of candy kush, left 1-2 colas, and some fluff that wasn't quite finished
cut down 90% of dwc1 which was starting to show severe nitro deficiency

total combined weight is....

269.5 grams!! and there is still more to harvest (dwc2 hasn't even been touched yet!) this is my first INDOOR grow, as everything I had done prior was outdoor, or vegged indoor, and taken outside to flower. hope you guys like the pics, I have more to come!

Got a new spot. Running Molokai kush and some bagseeds. Hopefully I get another mk2 as that one was my more favorite of the phenos, a little more mg was needed, and now since I know that I'll make the adjustments. Using a 1000w 9 band led, 2 300 watt 9 band LEDs, ebb and flow 6 site hydro, a 29 site dwc hydro (after I get clones) and mixing some supersoil for keepers, moms, etc. I'm getting a 2 bedroom apartment, and building in the spare room a 5x5 or slightly larger room complete with drywall and insulation. I'm planning on putting a few fans in the ceiling to help push the air into 2 large carbon filters I will be building. I will probably make 2 of these rooms eventually, and I'm planning on a separate room for the moms. I'm wanting to run another few genetics, I'm going to pic up grape stomper to cross with the Molokai, which is just stupid nasty. Like the most odiferus thing I've ever smelled, almost made you cry and choke when you hit it, so I'm hoping to get better flavors out of it. Any suggestions? Questions, comments, let me know. Hopefully I haven't missed anything important!

Yeah thanks bro! Long time since I've been active, hope you're growing strong! I just bought a solar converter, and I have solar panels on the way. I'm figuring I can have a heater running at low during the day and keep them in an underground greenhouse then at night I will run my leds to keep them in veg long enough

2000 watt (4000 max watt) inverter/converter bought and on the way, solar panels for my cell phone (back up battery charger) bought and on the way
Batteries for off grid system... Bought and the wrong damn kind lol... I CAN use them but I need 74 more so I think I will be exchanging them lol. Solar panels... I have them picked out, ready to be bought next week. Should I get them shipped here, or shipped to site when I get the address?? I'm not sure how fragile they are but they seem like eggs... Super fragile!
I'm going to get a prefab house, I found a company that charges about 200 for 1m3, I'm thinking I'll take 2m3. This way I can legally live on the land "inside" the prefab. My actual plan is to put my stuff inside the prefab and dig a 5×5 hole for where I can plant the ladies underground, that way they can still get sunlight, I won't have to supply electric 18 hours, maybe just 4-6 depending, I want a week or two of veg that's it then flower. I'm thinking I will dig two holes for the ladies, one for veg one for flower. I will dig out another spot about the size of my bed. Underground Is much more insulated than the surface, and no one can see it physically from the street. I'm thinking- I can connect the three rooms with a "Y" shaped corridor, which I want to put a fire into to help provide heat. I'm not planning on a raging bonfire daily but just a little something extra. That room will be vented a little so the smoke can go out. Ideas? I don't want to suffocate myself with CO but I don't want to freeze to death lol I think if I get enough venting to let out smoke I can get a little benefits from a fire right there, underground it would heat things up nicely. I'm also planning on a couple very small heaters. The lights I Will be using provide a little heat, I will most likely be doing my mix of cfl and leds, as I can definitely accommodate that energy draw. So am I crazy or what lol?
