Orange Hill Special & Purple Kush - HPS & LED - Grow

[Graytail]

Did you catch the dreaded bronchial pneumonia? That stuff is awful! Fatigue that you just can't overcome!

If so, hang in there. It's survivable. It's a month later for me, and I feel almost normal again.

Hi Graytail. I had a pretty bad chest infection that laid me up a while. I have harvested all 5 plants now and hanging them up to dry, although the normal OHS could probably have done with one more week to pack on some more weight but what the hell. The purple kush is nice and frosty and gleaming with resin. Mind you, if there is one part of growing I don't like its the trimming Here are some pre-harvest pics.

Will post up some dry weights once they are all dry and trimmed.

Time for a final update. After hanging for 5 days and a further five days in paper bags after trimming the plants are now dry. I am rather disappointed in the results of this grow so I will be changing a few things for my next grow like getting myself a proper grow tent for a start.
The purple kushes came in at 94.7 grams dry and the normal OHS was 38.5 grams for a total of 133.2 grams. Considering I was using a total of 580watts of mixed Led and Hps lighting in a 6 square ft. space I reckon I could have done a lot better. One OHS going rogue on me certainly didn't help as that cut down on my yield and I didn't bother weighing that one, hardly anything on it and its all going in my trim.
First pic is the normal OHS jarred up :

and these are the purple kushes :

Yea with that much watts you should've definitely had a pound. Try some more low stress training and super cropping to bush your plants out more. Maybe alil topping too. Good luck next time around. Check out my journal I do a lot of that.

Thought I would upload a couple of last pics of the end product

Hopefully you get bigger yields next time
