My Cabinet: 150w, AN, Soil, Jock Horror (pics)

[WheelsOG]

Hey guys

I thought I'd make a thread, and put a few pics up. I owe this site for providing me with lots of great info.

I have a very basic closet grow:

150 watt HPS light
100 CFM fan
Medium: 1 part potting soil, 1 Part Perlite
Nutrients: ph corrected Advanced Nutrients Grow-Micro-Bloom. Nothing else. I might add some dolomite lime to the soil next run to increase my soils Ph.

I'm growing two pheno's of nirvana's Jock Horror from seed. They have been flowering for 64 days.

One pheno is producing light airy buds, that keep stretching and stretching. Perhaps a Haze pheno?

My second pheno is my favorite. It was the runt of the litter but is mostly tight buds heavy with resin. Great Calyx to leaf ratio. I'm going to try to reveg this pheno then stick four clones under my 150 watt bulb.

Anyways, onto the pics

Far Right bud on Runt. The 'big' bud. Smells like Lime Lifesaver!

nice plantsyou have there my friend i got a jock going right now with a couple other strains been vegging since dec got a forrest with 6 plants under a 400mh..then half way thru will add a 400hps..heres 3 clones of sweetpurple grown under 3-27 and 2-42 watters pregnant by a white widow on the prowl

Sprout 420: Thanks

Colt122: Thank You

Krizznap: Thanks. I've considered using Big Bud and Overdrive. Maybe when I make clones off my plant i'll do a side by side comparison to see if its worth using. Right now I'm pleasantly surprised with the results I've been getting with AN's 3 part fert. I'll be surprised if the BB and OD can give me even better results.

Excalibud: Thanks. Nice looking plants there. Do you have any pictures of your Jock Horror? I'd love to see em.

I really like your grow very good results for just a.. 150 HPS.
=D

Herbglaze: Thanks!


I got impatient tonight and decided to chop the ladies down after 9 1/2 weeks of flowering them.

I probably could have left the plants in there for a few more weeks, but I have some NL x Shiva plants vegging, waiting to go in the flowering closet.


Heres some pics of the harvest



Pictured Below are all the buds off the runt. I think I might be able to stick four of these plants in my closet

SWEET! Those nugs look good enough to eat!

no burning?

no burning?

Those plants looked awefuly close to the light, in the first picture. Or is a 150w not all that hot?

 

[GeorgeSmiley]

Grow looks great props !

 

[WheelsOG]

ArtofMAKINGfire: Thanks

Nickwill86: I keep my light 3-6 inches away from the top of the plant. I think at 3 inches i'm pushing my luck. My runt handled the close light no problem though. I also have a 100 cfm fan (overkill) pulling air from the reflector near the light. That seems to keep the heat down.

George Smiley: Thanks

Heres a few more pictures of what happening in my garden

First off, this is the Runt that I am trying to reveg. I have it in a rubbermaid bin with CFL's on it 24 hours a day. I plan to repot it in something smaller in a week or so.





Next is a shot of the clones I took off my four unsexed NL x Shiva plants. I'll cull the male clones once I find out the sex of these plants.





Last is a picture of the less desirable plant, roughly trimmed, and hanging up to dry. Looks like lots of good hash making material in there

The final tally was...

2 oz of light, airy, sticky resin coated buds from the big bushy plant
1 oz of nice, tight, heavy resin coated buds from the Runt.

I smoked a bit of the big bushy plant and can say I'm happy with the stone. It came on a little strong, getting the heart going, but then it seemed to mellow out and keep you nicely stoned for a couple hours.


I can't wait till I can smoke the runt.
