It doesn't say on the cover but I got it a few months ago and the copyright says 2006. I think it's his fifth edition "Marijuana Horticulture: The Indoor/Outdoor Medical Grower’s Bible". I think that's his latest one...

Sorry about the late reply, I got caught up doing some stuff.
thanks :joint:

Thanks all,

Plants are still looking good, I had asked If my queen was done and did decide to leave it a few more weeks. It will be 8 wks on the 28th I'll probably go one more week or a little less. The other big flowering plants will be 9 weeks tomorrow. I'm flushing now with just 1tsp of bone meal.

So now I have a new agenda.


My flowering room is full of 6ft plants and I want to flower my next VEG set NOW before they get huge again... I want another 1000 watt hps but cant afford yet, in 3 weeks :wink:

My Question:
Should I just start flowering under my 400MH light? It has a blue veg bulb and I don't know how well it will do either, would getting a standard warm bulb help? I will definitely be able to get another 1000w hps within a month. Any cheap way I could add some good flowering light for now? I just don't know what to do...

Some advice on this would be appreciated, they are waist high now.

Click here or on the link in my sig to go to my growlog and see the veg plants I am talking about.

I'll post new pics later

many growers use MH for flower and swear by the results... personally i prefer using both HPS and MH for flower... but that light will work for sure... the low wattage also isnt as big of a concern in early flowering so i would say go for it rather than waiting the 3 weeks.

Thanks man,
I talked to my other growing friend and he said the same thing.

Yea I think a smaller mh with a bigger hps is the way to go.

I have pretty much decided to make that whole room dedicated to flowering so I will have 2 1000w hps's and probably add 2 400w mh's on the sides. I think that would double my yield.

So flowering for the 9 Queens starts tonight :)
I'll post a pic later, really.

Last night I pulled all the allmost done plants along the back and put the 4 week set more under the light.
My lights were on 13/11 up til a week ago where I went to normal 12/12
It seems like they've been finishing up allot faster, but it could also just be their time.
So pics of them later to. Almost done :D

So here are the pics

I had 8 Queens in veg, and one nl5, these start flowering tonight. There is 4 Black widows too under my t5's still vegging due to smaller plants and space issues.



Here is the one nl5 with this group, clearly topped twice,


The Queen does not top well, it gets all scraggly, the nl5 does, 4 nice colas. I will only top the queen once from now on to make a nice "Y"



Heres some flowering pics :D


Queen, 8 weeks, 1 out of 3 of them. Not a big yielding plant at all, but very sweet berry smelling and tasting bud with an great high. :blsmoke:


NL5, 9 weeks, this plant would be even more HUGE under allot of light or outdoors. Doesn't look to good, to me crystals and dense is good, but very stony. :joint::joint::joint:


so yea theres the plants right now.

Before and after harvest pics soon :mrgreen::blsmoke::mrgreen:
