Here are some close ups of the Sativa Donut. The USD is by far the leader of the pack, but the ECSD is right behind...

Hey bro (was kinda sending you goosh energy for you guys last night)

I am glad everything turned out ..well not OK but.... I'm glad you got back the 4Runner....I'm just glad your OK.

That GOOSH is fucking off the hook HOLY COW, you are going to have SUCH a great crop...I am watching what your doing with great interest as I may have to look at the weed doughnut as an alternative to stadiums.

Anyway I KNOW 2012 is going to be better than 2011 for you and your g/f!

edit: LOL that birthday cake looks like a fire hazard HAHAH, Happy B-Day buddy!
I can only imagine the amount of fire extinguishers you need on hand for your birthday cakes...
The donut is nothing but a smaller Bobblepod, with less plant numbers... Let me know when you want to start building.
I figure I have 3 full weeks left on the Goosh. Hit them with a PK booster, and will be plucking anything with a stem over the next few days as Freds suggested. The bud site numbers are insane, and if they fatten and fill in, I should end up with at least 16-20 zips. I am going to keep my expectations low, so that I can be pleasantly surprised.
Finished setting up my veg buckets and no leaks, so I am going to lightproof the lids and get some plants in there today for sure.
The largest USD is already bigger than the largest Goosh after 12 days of 12/12. I should have another 2-3 weeks of stretch to deal with and will be turning on the second light sometime this week.
The more I think of it, the more I really like these donuts. My wattage will slowly increase as the plants get taller, so my overall wattage won't be 1800. It will be more like 600 for the first 3 weeks, 1200 for the weeks 4-6, and if necessary 1800 for weeks 7-11. I will have to do the math to figure out the average wattage per day to figure out my gpw numbers...

My USD on my 2nd shelf are almost to the ceiling, I almost thought of using Hammerhead but trying to stay away from PCR's....so I had to do some topping...3rd row is just crazy, gro-bro is feeling so much better he is coming over today so we will do a little "bondage" on those bitches.

We have a little surprise coming in a day or two! The more I look at your design it makes a lot of sense, you keep power usage low and slowly build, even at full run the single doughnut will only be 1800 BUT if you run 3 then overall at the end (hypothetically) you could be running 5400 watts and I just cannot afford that especially since I do not qualify for CARE program anymore. I guess the MegaPods will have to be my choice since even if I run 3 - 1000 waters i am STILL lower overall than I am atm.

Your shit looks tight bro!

Mega if you stagger the grows I think you would have (1) 600 in one room , (2) 600 in a second room, and (3) 600 in the last room. This would be 3600 watts total. That would be close to your (3) 1000 watt bulbs.

Got the Blue Dragon clones in veg last night with a 350ppm solution.

The clones were beyond ready...

I need to rearrange a few things and make room for a 3-4 site veg system in order to have 12 plants in two stages at all times.
picture.php

I finished what should be the last defoliating on the Goosh, time to bask in the light and swell up girls!
picture.php

Close ups. Really hope the colas fill all the way in... Only 3 weeks left!:

Attempted macro on my cell phone camera with a 30x scope to the lens:

Marked the screen on the Sativa donut. The leading USD is over 36" with about 3 weeks left of stretch!

Been busy spending time with my boys the last few days, but I did manage to transplant a couple of ECSD that were getting to big for the cloner...

I will post more after the boys go to bed.

Nice roots development Armanius,

kudos on your donuts, they're pumping out product like a Chinese assembly line, except your product is of finer quality :)

Fired up the second light on the sativa donut last night. The diesels are growing an inch a day still, with the lead USD up to 42" now!
picture.php

The chocolope never really stretched and is in full flower. They were in the cloner for way too long, which may explain there stunted growth. They also may have skipped pre flower due to the 72hr dark period before flower as a result of the power outage. I took a few cuttings last night, and will run her one more time, if she doesn't stretch like the diesels, then out she goes...
picture.php

I think I might have to flush and rebuild my res on the Goosh donut. The ppms have not dropped like they have, and I am not seeing any noticeable growth on the buds. The EC is at 1.6 right now, and the highest they have been was 2 after the PK boost. I am wondering if adding some clearing solution would work also...

The 4 day power outage has started to show its consequences. I have pm, and the Borg have returned... Surprisingly, they have not jumped to the Goosh, and I will be dealing with them after stretch and the first round of defoliation.
