CA215's 1st Indoor Grow Tent 600W HPS & MH 48X48X78

[OG1969]

Damn.... 1 plant 17" tall won't make 8 lbs. Now you tell me.

You would be surprised at how far a scrog can be taken, will do a little run with my outside Madshack with that this grow she is a stocky little girl about 4 inches and 8 to 9 nodes and bushy as hell. Not being Cocky or anything of that nature this plant indoors is bomb WITH a 3 to 4 time Veg cycle she could put out some ounds my blueberry I just put outside is LST'D and she was sitting at almost 17 inches she is sativa though, so is Shack. I won't say 8 pounds but I bet I could pull 5 off her easy the Blueberries maybe more they are gonna be some big girls, Peace Skunk will see what I can do with her over he next few months, OG.

Side note: Being new to growing and only having 1 outdoor grow under my belt, I totally forgot how much your buds shrink during drying and how much water weight is shed during the process. The numbers I had flowing in my head for a dry harvest weight for my indoor plants have been flushed down the toilet, bye-bye.

I know the feeling there CA, My last outdoor girl Quadzilla had basically four main Colas and they where like half the size of 2 liter bottles around and were sitting at about 20 inches before harvest off those four main colas I weighed out at 24 oz after trimming, once dried I ended up with about 13-14 oz so yah almost half the weight is lost, but heywere nice big ass buds . I will see if I can find one for you, Peace OG.

 

[OG1969]

Look at some of Cervante's work he has scrog screens set up 4 1/2 feet off the gorund and buds that are 2 feet or better coming up they are a wonderous plant and can impress you from time to time. OG

Im very bad with keeping my tent closed at lights off. I usually leave the top cracked a few inches and a vent is open on the side for better air flow. Sometimes ill be stumbling around my room at night and ill turn a light on, might be bouncing in and around the tent (if this is the case it could have happened... 40 times?). Very difficult having the tent in my room, not to mention space issues. This could have also caused the PK to hermie.. I got to look into this, would be wack if the Purple Crack and Platinum OG did it also LOL. I can really only laugh at my mistakes at this point, find my issue and correct it. I forgot to mention I chopped the critical jack the other day, been on the drying rack for 3 days, smoked a nice dooby and I have the best giggly happy mental vibe going on, should have cloned the girl.. she was a small clone, 5-7'', without weighing it was about 2.5 grams and that's being modest will save the rest and let it cure Critical Jack:

Ditto that Bro I usually always zipper her up but there has been two times I haven't but she is in garage and when the sun comes p it does not hit the garage till around 8 or 9 am so my lights are already on suck and is not a good thing so, as with me try and keep your fly shut man, lol May put the PPK and Sugar Punch and set the up for 48hrs of dark come Monday, You will get to try both, Peace OG.

I just picked up a 1000 watt HPS setup and even though I want to finish my 1200 watt CFL adventure...the HPS would kick the buds up a bit. After I install it tonight, I'll burn a few bowls, watch a Hockey game and contemplate it.

Just think of a hundred low riders coming up that is what it would look like, Dam Skunkpilot you have inspired me to try and do this my plant was low and big but this will be low., lol. Gotta give it a shot and have a roll of wire perfectly suited for this, Peace OG

Hell yeah skunk!! Give them babies some lovin'!! Any possibilities off a combined work horse of 1000W HPS and 1200 CFL? That sounds gnarley..

So what's the status of things? You're killing a few that went hermie and still have a few good ladies left?

I'm kinda lost on where things stand... You only had 1 rascal and it's now hermie and out of the picture? If so, that sucks, we were going to be harvesting about the same time

What do you have left and how big are they?

I really want to keep her but with herm in the air I feel really sketched out leaving her in the flowering room... I mean... I could, set up my 600W cool tube in OG's 4X8.. let her be in there for another week or so...... Alright plans have changed, Rascal shall live to see another day, possibly week. I want to give her one last final fat 5 gallon clean water flush to make sure she is some fine smoke. Im seeing MAD fox tailing and these buds are still getting bigger by the day.. Thinking about changing my lights tonight to 11/13 since I am still on 11.5/12.5, its been about 6-8 days since the switch I should have changed way sooner but I've been busy past few days and it slipped my mind. Glad I sat down here and started typing and thinking about what's going on, Reps to you KJ! I still have my Platinum OG Kush which has the densest nugs out of the bunch, starting to really pack on trichs, haven't been giving her too much attention since issues with PK/Rascal.. Purple Crack is still alive.. I started giving her nutes today and remember she was on flush... so I quickly went and grabbed a 5 gal and gave her a good 3 gallon drench with clean pH h20.. This plant has a flowering period from 49-70, definitely going to push it until she cant hang on any longer. She's starting to yellow abit and is getting huge. Nugs are bending over from the weight. I also have 2 milk jug unknown seeds and one 1 liter unknown seed. These guys are all different bagseed and smell awesome.. I plan on doing another good 30+ picture update tomorrow of indoor and probably outdoor to follow.

Quadzillas Quad Qollaz? Sounds like some nice outdoor girlies, still have ahold of any beans? Big Betsy in the back is looking quite beastly.. Gave her a good bending today, shes pushing out 1, 3, 5, and 7 finger leaves it looks awesome... Would love to be out in the country with open space, could do some damn giants.. can't wait to see how that madshack does outdoor... going to be a huge pull señor OG! I will keep the tent shut from now on.. I was just messing with the lights trying to figure the damn timer again and I blasted the girls 2 times with the 600W!! Damn cant ever work out LOL. Always something... Anyways.. Got my lights to turn on at 8:30AM tomorrow and shut off @ 6:45.. So that will be 10 hours and 15 minutes lights on. Should be interesting. You going for some super lst OG? What plant you thinking on? CA

Man I need a camera... Day 56 Flower, Indoor 4X4 tent, 600W HPS. Rascal OG Kush:

 

[CA215]

Day 56 Flower, Indoor 4X4 tent, 600W HPS. Purple Crack, very fragrant plant. Smells amazing.

 

[CA215]

Day 56 Flower, Indoor 4X4 tent, 600W HPS. Platinum OG Kush, these nugs are hard as rocks!!! So dense!

 

[CA215]

And last but not least, little outdoor session, Big Betsy is getting VERY smelly.. Seedlings are growing well with the one stunted girl as an exception, planning on topping these girls in the next upcoming days:

A curling dead burnt leaf spotted on Big Betsy.. Not worrying abit it too much yet. All outdoor girls are going to get a Monterey Garden Spray insecticide/miticide, all these damn freeloaders are eating on my babies! Tomorrow a serenade spraying will follow, got to keep a watchful eye on PM.. horrid pm..

 

[CA215]

And I almost forgot some of the little smaller flowering plants. All at 56 days flower. They got a feeding of beastie bloomz, bpn, and molasses. These will be coming down in the following weeks.

And to sign off some pictures of the flowering room minutes ago, got the ac on 75 and its only keeping my room at 90... time to break out the cool tube!! Been getting hot around these parts, 94f today I believe.. we have got a very hot scorchin summer coming out way fellas peace and good growing, CA

Quadzilla was the name I gave her due to the four main buds coming up, was almost a perfect square, let me see if I can find a picture. As for the outdoor girls gonna make a scrog screen trying for something like 4x6 for one plant maybe 20-24 inches tall and see if I can get MadShack to fill the screen for a huge multi top plant, we will see how far she goes, will try not to break her.

Strain was BlackCherry Soda, was a clone only cut and I should have saved her by cloning . Peace OG.

 

[skunkpilot]

Nice nug porn. Are you using long pipe cleaners to LST? I asked my wife to pick some up recently and she returned with Floral wire. I walked out to the "partially built" grow room muttering under my breath.... OMG Works great, lite weight, easy to cut and easy to bend and is strong. Only problem is, it is so thin, it's hard to see and when I water them I sometimes snag them.

 

[OG1969]

I prefer fishing line and twist ties, work the best for me, no muss no fuss, OG

 

[cannasensei]

I like twist ties through the bags made into a loop from which I like to use soft tie (the green stretchy ribbon) cause as the stem gets thicker the twist tie andfishing line tend to cut into the stem. The soft tie is better at growing with the branches so to speak. I'm og of soft tie so I'm running all twist ties. Just a pain to adjustall of them weekly lol. I like hemp twine as well

Reps man things are looking great. Only caught the first and last pages but ill get caught up in the next week or so.

I can pretty much describe my process from beginning to current, light problems during veg, minor deficiencies, and damn gnats. Started seeing white powdery mildew on the last weeks of veg and have been fighting it since. Haven't seen any in weeks, I think due to my tent running at a steady 90 degrees.... I have been using Blue Planet Nutrients, Unsulphered Mollasses, SNS 203&209&244 for pest issues and the mold, but recently picked up some Serenade Disease control that seems to work great but smells like death.. I have Threw away plants due to mold, mostly my 2L's which were a mistake on my end to even start from the get go. Crowded my tent and i'm sure that's where the mold issue originated. Hermie issues started to occur with my Purple Kush which has been chopped and is curing. plushberry was cut because of mold. Im not too concerened anymore, I was way over my limit and have since buttoned it up! All is rolling around now, just waiting for these babies to pack on their final so I can chopchop! For LST I use hemp string tied around the stem/branch loosely with the other end tied to the 5 gal, I drilled holes around the tops of the 5 gallons which made it super easy to manipulate the plant. I also use the green garden twisty ties, they are extra long, about 3 of the ones you use for your bread put together. I really like the stratchy wide ribbon, that stuff works awesome! Did a bunch of grape vines in my back yard last year, would work perfect for cannabis! I'm planning on getting outdoors tomorrow to get all the girls topped and tied down, get them girls bushy!! Lights went off at 6:35 tonight, on at 8:35. Glad I got that all sorted out and there was no issues. Sorry for the ramble! I've been getting back on and off typing this paragraph up. Hope everyone is having a great evening , CA

Just curious bro, do you have a fan blowing under the canopy too?

 

[CA215]

Yeah I have 2x 18" fans opposite side, one sitting about, 10 inches lower than the other. 5 gals are raised to the perfect height. I also have that small 6" clip on fan in the far corner pushing underneath the canopies, so in my mind they should all be pushing air to eachtoher. And the 440CFM pulling the air up to the attic. Looking at the rascal this morning and I found another damn set of these freaking hermie seeds.. so annoying LOL. Cut this nug off to let it quick dry, i'm out of meds good meds.. me no smokey my premie, figure i'll make thc capsules or edibles with it, not too sure yet.. or roll it all in a FAT joint

Still seeing very few amber but a lot more milky! Hoping she can stay living for another 4-6 days. CA215
