Indefinately's Sea Of Green

The balance was harvested ( 10 plants ).
Weight ( Wet) : Approximately 550grams

So total weight with 20 plants 1 x 1000 watt HPS WET : Bettwwen 1000-1050g

Estimated dry weight about 250grams.

Not the best of results, but not bad for my first run in this op.

All comments welcome.

Im now working on filling up each tray one at at time.

I will be back with the dry weight in a couple of days......

TOTAL DRY : 330grams

Not very happy with the reuslts this time........

I will start again shortly and see were i went wrong.

I will go back to the AL B Fuct thread and start reading!

I have a few plants flowering now but i am waiting on my clones to root so i can load the table full for the first time...... Hopefully these clones take off and i can get it all started!

I will post again when i load up Table 1 Full.......
Untill then.......

Hi Indef, thought I would stop by and give you my opinion.
Kinda feel silly now about my reply at my thread. Now I see where you are at. I think you are not satisfied with the end yield and are looking for options. I think you should re-think ventilation for starters. take that ikea blind down, cut it so it fits inside the frame and make a window box where you can draw fresh air and exhaust the heat without anyone seeing it from outside. details in my dual cabinet build.

Heres a link: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/210480-dual-areoponic-cabinet-build.html

You mentioned you vegged for 2 to 4 weeks. I bet another week or two would increase yield by at least 25%. LST will bring more than SOG. As far as the system, shit man, you got them to grow in what your using, now fine tune it. Even using the same system it takes me three grows to fine tune a new strain. I'll stick around, see how it goes. Hell, I might learn something.

I look forward to seeing Table #1

3/4 of a pound is nothing to feel bad about for a first time grow in a new setup - I had $10K into my first grow back last year after a 10 year hiatus and I got five ounces...........just to give you some perspective.

Takes time to dial in new systems, friend.

I agree with bob on this 3/4 of a pound is decent.Like cruz says im always doing lst now ,if you look at my pics i only had two peices of garden string running around my plants i bought pea netting but just didnt use it in the end. I tryed my first dwc too and Im well and truly hooked compared to soil omg i went from 1 oz per plant to 3-4oz pr plant
Plus i wasnt on top of my ph/ec properly so next time round with a few tweaks looking to reach 500grams This sites helped me alot ,anylinks you have that you think might be helpful plz post..

Hey Bob & Dr

The reason i was not happy with the harvest due to the wattage i used.
I could of easily produces similar reults with a 400 or 600 watt light.
It was a test run any way......
.33 grams per watt - wont be hard to improve on!

I started to Load up the tray again last night.
I will try and update tommorow with some pics!

Thanks poeple!

I recieved .33 grams per watt in my first "serious" grow. It made me feel pretty silly. 4 Grows later
I hit 1 pound per 600 Watt. It just takes a couple little tweaks and then there's a snowball effect.

I saw you were using several different coco's. I would highly suggest Canna coco. Maybe more expensive, but
there it comes at 0 EC so you need not flush before use, that Sri Lanken coco comes at .5 EC, same as Botanicare, .5+ EC.
Unless you do proper flushing and buffering of the media it's tough coco to work with. Canna coco is the highest
quality no question. No Salts, and it's pre-buffered. Just use Canna coco nutes, and it will keep its buffer stable.

Hey people,

I havent been doing as much growing as i have been smoking......

I spend a fair ammount of time reading peoples journals ( I love RIU ) !

I thought i would post some pics of my most recent harvest......





I hate trimming the crappy popcorn bud ,might buy one of those small bowl trimmers.

Dont you love the smell when its trim time......LOL.

Glad you're healthy and safe and have nice buds to smoke

Thanks Bob ,

I keep going to check out your grow and notice you keep delaying the growing part like I do.
Get carried away with "ideas & changes" .

You filled her up with girls yet?
I'm off to check for myself.....
I hope it's full- I'm keen to see that thing full.

It's full (and has been for a couple of weeks, but I've been working out some kinks so growth hasn't exploded yet), taking some pics today.

hey man i gotta say thats not bad at all very nice grow as well.
i too was trying to do a al b style grow and found it worked well besides a few factors
1. al b told me to do zero veg (as i was vegging for 2 weeks) so i did a trial run and this is what i came up with

4 in front zero veg 3 in the back 2week veg went in at 10"

one of the topped main cola's

the 4 zero veg clones

when i vegged i wasnt eliminating enough branching so i was getting quite a bit of popcorn at the lower sites so i did 4 zero veg clones and 3 vegged clones and with the vegged plants i eliminated allot more of the lower branching than before and topped them in 2nd week of flower to keep them short ( my room is only 6' tall) then did the rest of trimming in week 4 and that was it and came out with some good results. the larger vegged plants had absolutely no popcorn and all colas where about the same in size and weight. vegged plants (3) where 2 oz's each for 6 total dry and the smaller (4) zero veg where 2 oz's for .5 each all together 1/2 pound so im going to veg and only do 8 per tray the same style i found worked with vegging so should be around 400-500 g per 4 weeks.
trimming is the way to go it improves everything.

Hey Dr Green

I have everything set up to run an op like Al B, but i havent put the time and energy into it.
I wish i could just go and buy some clones from somewher.
Thats what is letting me down.

O'well.........

Maybe its all the smoking thats contributing to my Lazyness.
I guess i must be even more of a lazy stoner than Al himself.

Thanks for checking in...

why not fill them tables up?? why all the empty space??

Hey Bob,

Glad to hear that your running, hope you smooth out all your kinks and flower smoothly.
I will go check out your pics now...

Hey Doniawon,

I have recently gone on an a really bad cloning streak.r
I smoke fat joints instead of looking after all the girls....

I have Cheese & BigBud growing from seed.

I will post some pics tomorrow.
I'm still trimming. Lol

One day I will fill theses rooms up.






I keep fucking up the clones .

I keep fucking up the clones .[/QUOTE]
Well, ? at least your honest.

I will start cloning tommorow.......
Lets see if any survive this time....

If we can get a few (enuf) clones rooted , i may get a couple of tables going again.
I am still trimming the Flowering table.
Once i finish that, the flowering room will have nothing flowering and there are no clones top feed in to the set up.
Running this Op really unproductively.

Wish i could go and buy 200 clones instead.

O'well.......

I lost two or three straight batches in my EZ 120 and finally just put them in pucks (where I always have ~100% success rate).

This EZ 120 can be great when it works right, but losing 120 clones at a time is certainly a kick in the balls when it happens (especially when it happens all in a row).

Has anyone smoked greenhouse "cheese"?

i grew greenhouse cheese in a previous grow, i wasn't impressed at all,the one pheno i grew had very little resin production or terpenes. they have since released the uk cheese as an improved cheese and it is supposed to be close to the original.

s.o.g all the way, by far the most productive if you can be organised with the clones.
i can get 1g per watt but fuck up with my clones so have to wait 2 weeks in between grows to refill my tent, this kind of goes against the priniciples of sog growing (it helps keep pests at bay however).
