just thought id show you all some of my current grow. all plants are in week five. ill also post soil, nute pics, and some commentary! more plants will be done in a matter of days, so in like a week ill post a few finished shots.

i would like to start by saying that all my plants are from clone form, some gifted, but most purchased from dispenseries. i know at least one strain was gifted under the wrong name, if anyone recognizes this alleged ssh, let me know. it definately has a haze smell, but it finished faster than my kindu kush! oh also, i use a very heavy nute schedule, youll see lots of yellowing, but the finished product is icy as all hell. i also use co2.
anyway, check it out, give me feedback.


this mendo purp was gifted



the alleged ssh. its about the most trich covered thing in the room, and it finished as fast as the hindu and blue mystic.



also gifted, about a 15 inch plant yielded about an ounce.



ahh, my new favorite. pineapple crossed with dawg. there are many phenos of this, i have number seven which is the most sativa esque. indica phenos are very kushy, and im tryin to get my hands on it.







i have alot more to come, still to be pictured, hindu kush, strawberry cough, g13xhashplant, amnesia haze, snowcap and SAGE forgot to list nutes in case you cant see, i use green fuse bloom, sensi zyme, big bud, overdrive, sweet leaf, purple max, gravity, piranha, and sensi bloom a and b. i ammend my ocean forrest with added perlite, vermiculite, bat guano, and worm castings.

im running under 600 hps, with digital ballasts. its an attic grow so i needed to lose the thousand watts in the interest of fighting some of the heat they put out. the living situation is temporary, so i am relying on the oceanside breeze i recieve for ventillation. didn't want to construct ducting and such for only one or two runs. in addition, the electronic ballasts allow me to use more wattage with less ampage, allowing for more lumens per square foot.

some updates

some updates

these pics come from week 8. a few of the indicas had finished by this point, and some of the sativas (strawberry cough and honeybee) are starting to fill in. at this point the amnesia haze was still very far behind, so pics of those will be coming soon.


a cleaned up blue mystic, time to finish the drying and cure.




honeybee (pineapplexdawg)



hindu kush, about to go into cure



some snow cap, this nug is about the size of a racquet ball.


snowcap again



strawberry cough



some more honeybee

at this point all of the sativas sans the amnesia haze have been hit by gravity, and will recieve purple maxx in the next couple of feedings.

Hey Sucker...Nice grow, I got some Blue Mystic goin right now. Got a purple pheno that looks promising. I wanted to ask how tose nutes work??? The Purple Maxx and the Gravity, thats the stuff from Humbolt, right? I was thinking of trying it, but wanted some feedback first. Nice buds, dude...Peace

 

[weaterdayz]

nice pics and plants, do you flush your plants orpump them with nutes till you harvest?
Also I think you might be overferting, at least that one plant.....peace

 

[suckerrepellent]

this is correct, i hit my plants with VERY high levels of nutes up until the last week. at that point i use final phase to clean the plants. heres how the humboldt products go: i ran a control on the g13xhashplant cuts i have, and the gravity made a noticeable difference. i would guess (the nugs arent dry yet) between ten and twenty percent more wieght. the buds aren't necessarily larger, but they feel denser. the purple maxx is cool too. this is a very powerful nute, and almost every plant i apply the combo to show very fast signs of burn. the bottle comes with a warning that it does not guarantee purple flowers, in fact it quotes between 25 and 33 percent show color change. my room was not cold enough to facilitate a very noticeable color shift, but i have to say within two or three days of delivering the purple maxx the trichome coverage appeared to explode. again, don't expect a purple wave to hit your plants, but do expect a high(est) quality fertilizer.

all of these photos came from week nine. note how undeveloped the amnesia haze is. last time i do a 15 week strain.

anyway, there will be more updates soon.

Looking good man...only I think you may be reducing your potential yield quite conciderably by slamming them with too much ferts.

You said you're growing them under a 600 right? Your buds look a little small and underdeveloped to me to be honest...with a 600w hps you should be getting a hell of alot more yield than an ounce per 15" plant...double or triple that really.

Try going a bit easier on the nutes next time and I'm sure you'll see them take off and grow some huge buds for you.

Just my thoughts...peace

I grew the amnesia haze and I have to say it was one of my all time favorites. Yes it takes a long time but the taste and high are a #10 all the way. I wish I could get some more cuts of this strain. Hang in there I think you will be very happy with the strain.

 

[suckerrepellent]

thanks for the tips. can you suggest a succesful ppm rate for 600w grows?

 

[Gangabiss]

Are you using hydro nutes in soil??

I've never had to measure ppms or any of that as I stick to organic ferts and just add what it says on the bottle and it works fine for me.

I think you may have gone a bit overboard with all those nutrients...you already have worm castings and guano in your soil. All you really need more than that is a grow and bloom fert and maybe a root and bloom stimulator (not really necessary). Your basically just wasting your money buying all those bottles...at least that's what I think.

Don't mean to put your grow down buddy, it's just I know how much 600w can yeild and your buds just look smaller than some I've got with a 250 or 400 in soil and I'm definately no pro, so something is most definately not right IMO.

Hope you get it worked out man...and remember the golden rule 'K.I.S.S.' (Keep it Simple Stupid) and you can't go far wrong.

peace

Somebody back me up here...I feel like a twat

 

[suckerrepellent]

what is the industry standard for yield per six hundred? maybe that would be a better comparison, considering i have 22 under one and 24 under the other

 

[Gangabiss]

You should be able to pull .7 grams per watt easily with that many plants...I take it you're doing SOG?

So basically at least 300 grams per light is average or just below I'd say. But you can bump that up to .7g - 1g per watt if you know what you're doing and you have decent yeilding strains.

What is your average yeild per light?

 

[suckerrepellent]

ill let you know this is my first run with 600's

 

[ICETOKER]

I agree with you guys....I run a 400 w in a really cold attic (max 22 c in the cab) on 0,75 sq m and i got 300 grams with 4 NL clones in soil. I use Canna Terra nutes and never exeed the reccomended dose, in fact i almost never give full strenght cos i have found out that almost all of the strains that i have grown did get nute burn when given full recccomended dose. Btw i have grown purple plants a couple of times and i was somewhat dissapointed cos they both lacked in potency, but beutiful plants they were!!!!

Keep it simple.....after all its weed!!!!!

next week ill have some finished pics of strawberry cough about to go to cure, and possibly some dry honeybee.

 

[Gangabiss]

That sage looks delicious man!

How does she smoke? Or do you leave that until they've had a good cure?
