Welcome to my Final Indoor where I am living at this time. Its time to move countries once again and therefore growing must cease.
The stuff I've learned has been phenomenal over the last couple of grows.
I'm now able to mix, dilute and know exactly what I need and how much or little to put in with nutes its great how practice made perfect once the basics were mastered and the education from learning about growing made sense.
Some of the things I've learnt from Rose**man, whose been a massive help in learning a common sense, realistic no fuss way in growing.
The Super Lemon Haze is the First time I've grown feminized seed with this kind of THC offerings so I was keen to see what I put out.
A mate grew under 400 watts and used bigger pots and space than I had access to and this shows what we were able to put out using different methods but in Coconut Fibre Medium being the only thing we had in common.
I used Cheaper one part organic nutes, Green Dream, he used PK 13/14 and 2 part nutrients of a more pricier make, I can't remember what they were, but only available in 4 litres or more.
Overall his plant put out way more than mine, which is to be expected, and was a smoother smoke off the bat.
I'm still maturing mine and its getting smoother with a bit of time.
This stuff comes on long and strong and I only need a hit or two and were done.
I dont smoke a whole joint of it, its just too much to try and get anything done on it.
Mostly I do 1 hitters on the bong and leave it at that.
I start with 1 and turn it into 4, then 8 then 12 heads at its final Count.
ONWARDS!
Here I start training the plant to how I want it to grow.
I want the light as close as possible since they emit little heat and wont burn the plant.
We top and then top again and in two weeks its totally on the way.
Ive decided I like it all tidy on the bottom and seeing as the last grows, all the nuggets on the bottom of the plant are not worth keeping, all the mass is up top!
At this stage the SLH is going mad in some places 1 branch has much more power than the rest because it wasnt topped as another experiment I wanted to play with.
I used a small piece of chicken wire to keep it down.
Woo! The Fun begins!
At this stage I'm thinking to myself "hmm only 250 watts in there and I've got 2 x 48 watt 5000k's out there doing nothing......"
So I re-made my light shade to fit four Lights... Its only intended for 1, but I like to get em in!
Downside to this was the shade wouldnt fit the cupboard and so I had to bend the sides UPWARDS, but thats how it was so thats what we did!
It was a mongrel to move tho, with all the cables.
Here you can see how close I run the lights.
I've heard people saying all kinds of stuff about light distances, but I figure if the power of the sun makes plants grow, then theres not nearly that much power in my cupboard so I run then as close that the plant can grow into it and also the chicken wire is bigger now so its keeping everything nice and level.
BINGO! 12 heads!
