Well I got me a digital camera and I'm starting an album so I thought I would also start a log. This grow is Shiva Skunk and an unknown, flowering for about 2-3 weeks now. The top pic is my flower space... it's just half a closet big powered by a 400w. Right now there is 2 plants in there, I try not to have more than 3 at one time but every once in a while my timing gets off and I have to cram 4 in there.

Girls look great ;)

How big's your space? Looks like you're over 100w per foot in there? Should get some killer buds :D

Good luck!

Yea, this setup works out well for me and my wife. Keeps us stocked up and happy.

It's half of a normal closet so what... 3x3 ft maybe? It makes for really dense buds but because of the way I tie them down, the biggie colas are not as biggie as other grows I've seen, kinda half cola and half little trees growing up from the tied down branch.

One thing that really works out well to elevate the pots for me is to use those plastic soda flats you can find stored behind most major grocery stores flipped upside down. I don't know why I brought that up, lol, prolly because I'm stoned and it's the most recent change I've made. heh.

Anyway, thanx for the comments! I'll keep posting pics as I feel the urge to take them.

One half closet/one 400 watt HID = killer buds for a small, personal, lifetime supply...:thumbsup:

I call that a bargain....the best I ever had.

1000W in a closet??! DAAAAAAAMMMNNN I bet you have troubles w/ temps. lmao. My shizzle is air cooled and I still need to have an air conditioner running in the room almost 24/7. My temps stay a cool 75 at canopy level.

Hell yea it does and it's the greatest deal I've ever gotten too :D

Well I cycle the plants in and harvest them 1 at a time. Strain and size dependent I get an average of 1.5-2oz per plant. The most I've gotten from 1 plant w/ this setup was 3oz18g dry but that beast just about took over the whole 1/2 closet!

Here are some pics of my veg area. It's actually a wall hanging kitchen cupboard that was discarded by my previous apartment complex. I flipped it on it's side, added a shelf, moved the hinges so it would open the right way and added some floros. The bottom is where I keep rooted clones as they grow to "training" size. I put the next plant to go into flower on the top in "training" along with the cuttings that aren't rooted yet.

Well I added a new plant (unknown strain) to the flower area so now it's full. The Shiva Skunk is turning purple too!! Everything is looking good to me :D I'm thinking 2-3 weeks before we pull the shiva skunk down.

damn, those plants look delicious. the colors are really amazing as well. nice work. so you don't know what strain that one girl is, but she looks quite similar to the skunk, but that cola looks tasty.

lookin forward to harvest time :jointsmile:
