Pineapple Express - 1200w HPS - DWC / Drip - AN

Hey everyone, just got relocated and started my new grow. Despite the hype, I wanted to try this so called "Pineapple Express". On a starting note, I am a little disappointed that out of 10 beans only 7 of them popped. Luckily they sent me a purple lady and white widow to try so I have 9 out of 10 pots planted.


SYSTEM: I have 10 3 gallon grow buckets with 4" net pots & a control bucket. I am flushing weekly so I can follow the AN light/moderate feeding schedule. Medium is 50/50 mix of Hydroton and rockwool.

NUTES: Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur 2 Part with the following supplements: F1, H2, Big Bud, Bud Blood, Voodoo Juice, Mother Earth Tea, Tarantula, Piranha, Carboload, B-52, Sensizym & Overdrive. My last grow I didn't use all the supplemental nutes and still had great results so I can only imagine the difference this will make.

LIGHTING: 2 x 600w HPS with digital ballasts & air cooled hoods. I didn't get the MH bulbs, friend did his last grow under HPS from start to finish and had great results.. All that really matters is the flowering anyway.

Other accessories include CO2 Injection & Dehumidifier.

I will post pics tonight. Stay tuned bongsmilie
 
here are the first pics... just planted two days ago. :blsmoke:

is this pinapple express?? i just got some they look real nice !!! well done man

G13 pineapple express....those pics are from my phone so they are not the greatest....each branch has just a huge bud on the end of it....if you dont tie them up they just fall right over....i trimmed about the bottom 1/3 of the plant and it seemed to really fatten up the main buds...i got a bunch of clones so i may top a few and see what happens....
 
Awesome looking setup ihatecops, nice and clean. And roll420, those buds look dank as hell, very nice work. I have one feminized pineapple express coming from attitude so this should be a good journal to follow. Good luck and happy growing
 
Thanks, yea im deff keeping this strain going....i think im going to have about 2oz...from this one plant or maybe more its hard to tell!!! Good thing i got 4 more right behind!!! Hurry up and dry dammit....i want smoke you!!!

did you veg for 2 weeks or 4 weeks? was she kind of a slow starter for you? It's been a week since I planted and they are going a lot slower than the last strain did for me... just curious.. Maybe it's because I'm vegging with an HPS?

Since this is the first one it came from seed and veged for around 4 weeks, flowered for around 9 weeks....i just cut all the branches off....one big nug left on top!!:mrgreen:
