Thanks, it was a delicious and clogging sandwich. Good luck with all your ventures!

Hey so
although its a far way off ( cuz i dont have my own place yet ) im planning on growing 8 plants a soon as i move out.

I have had some experience already growing indoors with cfl's and growing outdoors but i was wondering what kind of light you are using. I already realize it is a 1000W light but i was just wondering the brand and the version. Also, where did you buy it and how much did it cost. Finally, if i grow in a room but i dont have ventilation, just a light and a couple fans do you think i will be fine, or should i always have a window open for circulation?

Also, im very impressed with your grow props to that
And ill be growing in ontario, do you know what penalties are around there, obviously marijuana is more strict around there than out west but im just curious, at least im not in the states, thats where its tough

great grow u got goin look like u kno what u doin

Thanks for the kind words about my grow, the light is a 1000w hps "xtrasun" brand ballast, the bulb is a sylvania, i think its called lumilex or something like that. I got it at a discount price from a friend who had to bail on a grow after less than a month. Which leads me to my next point, take your time and read,read,read before you so much as think about growing. You'll need plenty of ventilation, and windows are not the preferred method, they vary too much in temperature, will let odours out, and will let pests in. You really have to go to the growFAQ and read it end to end, and THEN go watch all the videos you can.
I say spend some time in the plant problems section of this site and just watch all the grows going to shit because of lack of knowledge and preparedness.
Good luck!

thanks, I'd like to think i know what im doing, but theres so much to learn about all this and constantly advancements, that i've really only hit the tip of the iceberg.

My weed got dressed up for halloween.

Did a lil trimming the other day.



And of course a couple of the flower room.


Thats pretty much it. Got my PH issues under control but my vegging gals are getting huge, problem is i wont have room in the flower space for at least a few more weeks, looks like i'll be growing some 7 foot basement monsters this time around, maybe i'll get my 400 hps going as some supplimental lighting.
Anyhow crew, thats it for now. Thanks for all the positive comments, it always feels great to know you're creating something beautiful.
Happy growing y'all!

Oh that we had basements where i live. I would never leave home!

Very nice my northern friend.

Cheers neighbor! I'll burn one for you.

Time for a little pic-update.
Heres the flowering room as of a half hour ago.
oh and a batch of clones or something...

Nice grow, i like tha fat buds!

Hey,
I built my own carbon filter and I used a full charcol bag that you can buy at a grow shop; which carries these charcol bags to refill the carbon filters. The bag fills the biggest carbon filter you can get.
I hooked a six inch fan on by carbon filter that I built and after one month of Veg, Anyone who has smelt fresh weed before, will know that their is pot plants in the house.... I think if you were to try and cover it up, use' the carbon filter and something else such as a fragrance odor control.. I am going to post a theard about oudor controll to see what people have found works..
I have to deal with a landlord comming over every month collecting my rent, so it's very important for me to have no odor.. I usually run 40 plants with 3 weeks veg.. You can kinda go figure with that knowledge how well the filter will work for u... (btw) it dont work when there is res production lol..

Its chopping time!!!
Long story short things are changing, including my grow, im going shopping on tuesday for a bubble cloner and some flood tables, more lights, pumps and all the other accoutrements required to go hydro SOG. Stay tuned for mind blowing stuff!!!

its all bagseed, my dad tossed me about 100 beans of what he told me was good smoke, i've had to pull a few hermies, but for the most part this strain has treated me great.
Personally i find the more compact rounded lime green bud pheno is the one that really gets me blasted, but the purple has great bag appeal and a really strong perfumey scent.
but there are a million purple strains out there, any seed bank has at least a couple.

Heres a couple uninspiring shots of my op, note the lack of plants in it, due to some bullshit, i was under the impression i was shutting down for a while. Well, bullshit is sorted and now i'll have to start everything fresh after this harvest.



GH Cheese is by far frostier, earlier than ive ever seen in a plant, its only about 4 weeks into flower and the trichomes are just stacked on top of each other. Not to mention this shit smells like fucking cheese, imagine parmesean mixed with a real sour weedy smell, amazing, i've got a cutting from this plant and im germing a seed, but i'm gonna order some more beans of this just because im so damn impressed with it.

CHEEEEEEEEEEESE!!!!!!!!

oh and also i just went and spend hundreds of dollars on gear the other day too.
Cooltube and reflector!!!
80 site aerocloner

got some hydroton

And a couple 2x4 hydro tables and rez's.
All in all is been an expensive couple days, but my word am i gonna grow some fucking dope now!!!!

Hoooly Shit, I'm subscribed. I can't wait to see what you do with hydro! Please keep up the great work, its inspiring!
