3'x2'x2'H tent - 150W vertical and 110W T5

[rootidec]

here's a shiva I'm pulling soon. It's about 30cm tall and it's very frosty single cola. Smaller plants had biggest, thightest nugs so far in this setup - while branchier plants developed smaller ones, but more product



EDIT: this one is in a 2.5 liter pot, while the wappa in my last update post in a 1 liter pot instead. I'll picture them hung side by side soon

see ya

I would smoke that harvest in about 1-2 weeks... but I like your personal stash style! Way to be self sufficient!

:-D i bet you would!!
trying to keep it simple while i'm still learning here
thanks for stoppin by man, your ops are killer

 

[rootidec]

and here they are - shiva and wappa_1l - just harvested

shiva 2.5l (on the right in the wooden box pic) didn't outgrow the wappa 1.0l that much...
see ya

EDIT: on a side note, here's the wappa harvested one week ago, that I'm already smoking a bit of:

it's red-dish really - doesn't stink at all until you have it under your nose: then smells fresh, like pinetree, and smokes fresh. It's a nice high, I've been smoking this strain for some time and it really chills me out lol

EDIT2:
a pic of these two plants taken with daylight - does them justice on frostiness of shiva (left):

[sgapetti]

Peace S

 

[rootidec]

thank you guys I'm following your first-class projects as well

I have some updates, but I'm waiting to post them because I don't have any space left in my gallery - and had to rely on external upload services last time - plus I don't want to flood the vert section... anyways, now that I have 50 posts I'll check if they gave me more jpg real estate lol see ya!

EDIT: passed the 50 posts - finally I have more space for pix, and avatar

 

[rootidec]

ok, here's an update.
Interestingly, 1L vs 2.5L turned out in favor of the former, which could yeld pretty much the same.

(EDIT 7/9: they both weighted in at 14g each)

here's a detail of the 1L pot - just 1.5L soda bottle cut and covered with garbage bag:


now in the tent we have 2 pandoras,
and last wappa and shiva skunk.
they're all flying through the 9th week of flowering, but pandoras in particular are quite late... so much for being advertised as 60-days-from-seed wonders lol.
they're quite big instead, which i appreciate

 

[rootidec]

here a close up to the last wappa:


and shiva skunk:


see ya

EDIT
i'm watering with plain water every day or two. temps go as high as 34.8 °C, and RE 85% these days. leaves are turning yellow on all plants so i guess i'll cut when all leaves fall off

 

[killerweed31]

veri nice lookin wappa, the shiva skunk lookin fat..im curious about final weight of this sk and the tasty so im tuned bro, you do great job!!!

 

[rootidec]

no big news, here's what's left before summer vacation

will update when harvest

ps last shiva plant was lost to mold, she will be missed lol... I've already got rid of all drying gear which is probably contaminated at this point.

 

[rootidec]

OK here's the harvest.
4 plants, I'm tearing 'em all down - they have been flowering for almost 3 months I guess.
here are the wappa (1 L) and shiva (2.5 L):


and here is a pandora that was too high - I had to twist and tie it down several times:


last but not least a huge pandora. it's not tight as other plants (airier buds) but damn the main cola is really something:


follows >>

 

[rootidec]

here are the plants rigged up:


and finally hung


next start: end of august!!!

 

[rootidec]

plants harvested 12 to 17 grams - really I'd say 14-15g per plant average it's a safe bet for this setup.
Now, at 4 plants/month that would make 55-60g /month.
165/180g per run (three months).
My power consumption is 150+110+30(fans) = 290 watts circa,
that makes 165/290= 0.56g per watt on a three months basis

*I don't know if all of you calculate gpw this way or otherwise
**Some may object these last four plants took 3 months (just) to flower, so roughly 4 moths total - but it's been incredibly hot this last 1 1/2 month, 35°C and 85% RE - plants before that ended in 8 weeks. I think these would have, too.

Thanks for all your support and visits - will definitely stick around and luuurk lol

 

[killerweed31]

congrats for the result, i think was good bro, i get similar with 250w hps!!
kudos to you

[sgapetti]

[Chloemobile]
