Thanks GB I will be posting up more pics of the trimmed buds before they go in jars and I will get some yield numbers too when they are ready.

fine harvest with that 150hps
150W KING. excellent lil grow bro, lovely 150 colas man, top stuff, look forward to seeing more! k++
^Thanks guys you are too kind 
Chemmy Jones is curing now at 63% humidity in jar she weighed 12g. Pretty impressive to me considering it was switched to 12/12 at 14 days from seed. Grown untopped in 1 gallon of soil with all organic nutes. This strain is by far a winner and I would recommend it for sure. Very frosty buds and unique bud structure on this particular pheno I would say is more Casey dom with the more sativa style leaves and stretchiness and the bud structure itself was foxtailing in the last week especially. It smelled like peppery and spicy mid to late flower. After chop and dry it is very Chemmy in smell. Tastes earthy and musky. I like it and will be growing out the other 10 seeds I have and making some nice f2s in the future at some point.
Pineapple is at ~72% hum when left in a closed jar so not quite ready for taking a weight still has a bit of drying to go until its ready to cure. Also there is still the two Pineapple Clones that are coming down in a week or so.
In a couple days the next batch goes into the tent for some 12/12 action. I havent posted many pics of this round yet but they are doing well so they will be the newest stars of this show soon.

Since they were too big to keep vegging in my tiny little veg cab I have I put the Damn Sour, Sour Cream, OG Kush, Cheese n Chaze 2 into the tent under 12/12 2 days ago. Post pics up soon. They probably didnt veg long enough but I didnt have anymore space in the little cab left they were hitting the lights already. They should take up half of the tent.
I have the runt Cheese n Chaze 1 left in the veg cab still since it was a runt and needs more time to veg.
I also have 3 SWT #4 that I put in water to soak overnight will b putting on paper towels after I am done with this update. These will veg for a good month or more and be put in to fill up the other half of the tent.
I dont think that this next harvest will top this harvest because of less veg time but we will see.
So far BBG 26g, CJ 12g, and the big PE 39g. Still have the two PE clones coming down in 4 days which I guesstimate around 12g probably maybe a bit more or less hard to tell. But running total is 77g so far this harvest 2.75oz. Pretty happy with this from my 150 the harvest will be over 3oz which is my best 150 harvest yet.

Impressive yields. Looking forward to the pics.
Remote balastCan you also go over how the remote ballast works, where is it located, does it need to be cooled and what it takes to set up etc. I really want to run a diy cool tube, but I am not very electrically inclined lol.
Your grow is very inspiring! Thanks for sharing

I have my balast mounted on the back of my cab near the top. A 150 balast does generate a little heat, but not much.
There used to be a great cool tube tutorial in the Link-O-Rama, but it doesn't seem to be working amymore.

This exhaust fan works well for a 150.
The first scrubber I got the 4"x16" one off ebay for $65. It didnt work well enough at all, the smell was getting through a bit after only a few weeks into flower.
I had to get a better scrubber so I went even bigger with a 6"x20" Mountain Air which was $180 but WELL WORTH IT. Best carbon scrubber I have used yet there is absolutely ZERO smell and it is said to work for 3 years. I shopped around online til I found this was the cheapest that I found a 6" MT AIR for so just look around and find a name brand scrubber dont bother with no name filters, get it oversized for your application and you will be good to go. Also make sure the carbon layer thickness is around 2" you dont want too thin of a layer of carbon.

When you were referring to the exhaust fan you said it was good for a 150, what do you mean by that?

Nice harvest especially from that big Pineapple, good luck with more future sucessful crops
I mean that the fan is good enough to use with a carbon filter and still maintain enough airflow to keep a grow area with a 150 hps cool.
I took a few pics of the the couple I put in the tent a few days ago. They are on day 5 12/12 today.
Cheese n Chaze 2 (CC2)
Damn Sour (DS)
OG Kush (OGK)
Sour Cream (SC)
Have CC1 in the veg cab still definitely a slow vegger was real bad stunted/runt from birth...
There is also 3 SWT#4 IBL seedlings starting in the veg cab. One has sprouted already and shed seed shell, two are just now sprouting above soil and have shells on still.

Well I weighed the Pineapple clones they were 24g total from the two clones.
So total dry curing weight of last harvest is BBG 26g, CJ 12g, PE 39g, PE Clones 24g = 101g or 3.6oz. I am beyond happy with that as you might have been able to tell I havent been around much since harvest
Cheese n Chaze #2 was a male so he got chopped on day 5 when sex was determined. Damn Sour, Sour Cream, and OG Kush s1 are all 15 days 12/12 and Cheese n Chaze #1 is at day 4 12/12 today since it was the runt of the bunch and took extra vegging. I think/hope CC1 is a female. There is one small preflower on her and it looks like a calyxe with not hair poking out yet so hoping its a fem anyway.
I have 3 SWT #4s at 2 weeks from seed too. One of the three is a purple stemmed pheno hoping it is a male for my project I am working on now. (OG Kush s1 x SWT #4 IBL)

So here is a bunch of picture updates since I have been slacking. I wont be posting pics of the CC2 since it turned out being a male I chopped and tossed him. However CC1 (the runt) I had a feeling would be a female and I was right she vegged a couple weeks longer and you will see pics of her in the updates.
