GDSstonerboy/ProGroWannabe Dual Grow Thread.
Damn ProGro that room is coming alone nicely! I cant wait to get mines back up to speed. Why dont you give a little rundown of all the different strains you have in there. And if its not to much of a bother, how much do you usually yield off of each of them? I gotta give it to you bro, that room has come along way and i think its gonne be going further. :jointsmile:

Shov....Thank You sir, your too kind. I'm just learnin like everyone else--from reading the grow logs of you veterans.
Bigweed...thanks! I haven't placed any BIG orders like you did, but I think in general, they usually ship orders such as yours a pack or two at a time.
GDS...I appreciate the big props. I really wanted to do something different in the way of room design. Not simply to be different but to maximize the use of my vertical lights and the rectangular shape. As you know from previous conversations GDS, I really struggled with the right solution to all of this. Well, I feel successful with the end result. Sure this could have been better, or that could've been better, but I'm perfectly pleased with the layout. Now if I can just get it all stocked, I'll be doin good;).

Strains and related info:- PPP- The PPP I have are all clones of the two mother plants that are also in the flower room now. I selected this pheno from seed-grown plants in my first grow with the PPP. I had four females to choose from. Three were structured like an main-cola-dominant indica. However, the one my clone moms were from was DEFINITELY a sativa dominant pheno without a doubt. It was an absolute monster compared to the others. It was more than two and a half times as tall as it's sisters! We're talkin almost five feet. Anyway...I kept two moms and that's where all of the PPP that are now in the room came from. There are 13 of them in there right now.
- Cinderella 99 (Joey's)-I'm also flowering four C99's. They are only 2 weeks into flowering. I like them, but they are gonna be a challenge in my setup due to their bushy structure. As is obvious when you look at the pics of my room, it is VERY narrow, so a bush is probably gonna have to be lst'd inward instead of the typical lst being to spread the plant out. Right now they're really not getting TOO close to the lights. As soon as I can, I'm gonna get a decent ventilation setup designed and installed utilizing cool tubes, so plant scorching will be eliminated altogether.
- Jack Herer-There is also one Jack Herer in the room. It just got cut today. Sorry I didn't get y'all a pre-trim picture, but I was in a big hurry. Things have been crazy-busy around here for the last week. It was time, so it got pulled. It is now being re-vegged. A grow-friend of mine said it was the best looking J. Herer he's ever seen and he's ran the strain four times now. So, I figured if this one looks that good, it HAD to get re-vegged.
Yields
PPP- I have been getting a quarter pound wet weight on this pheno per plant. But, as most of you already know, that only equates to about an oz once it dries. The pile of buds looks bad-ass to begin with, but I trim heavy so that the buds are buds, and the trim is trim. So the pile gets considerably smaller once it's dried and been in the jar a while. I'm pretty sure that these numbers still have room for improvement in my setup with my pheno. I screwed them up on this last round by keeping the nitrogen regimen in place to long. The leaves clawed pretty bad by the time stretching had stopped. Live and learn....
C99-Don't know. First time running it.
Jack Herer-This my first time having ran this as well, and as I stated above, it's being re-vegged. I left about about 10-12 popcorn buds on it, so it would have plenty of sites to sprout new growth from. I still managed four ounces wet on it as well. I expect to keep a little more of that weight with the JH, than with the PPP. The bud structure on the JH is much tighter. We'll see.
Thanks for watching. Be sure to tune in next time for another installment of the GDS/ProGroWannabe grow show.

Nice ProGro thanks for that info!
I was awaiting a free 1000 watt hps from my uncle that lives like 4 hours away but he hasnt had time to bring it down to me as promised so i decided to purchase my own. I ordered the valuline 1000 watter from discounthydroponics.com(only 199.99)! So i'll have that one soon and if my uncle ever decides to make the trip i'll then have 2k watts!
But until then my mother C99 is under the 4 t12 lamps. She is coming up on 4 weeks right now and she's looking good although the buds are fairly small. But i have 3 rooted clones off of her so far and 3 more showing roots in the bubble cloner, 5 more still havent shown roots.
3 of the C99 clones will be kept as mothers and the rest will go into flower as soon as the 1000 watter gets here. For right now though here are a few pics of the 1 c99 mother that is almost 4 weeks into flower and she's been pollinated by my Papaya male. Cant wait to get those growing!!!:thumbsup:

Right On GDS! My little f3 seed project is well under way. Pollen sacs have started to open now. I THINK she's gotten enough pollen, but I'm not too sure. From all I've read, a little pollen goes a long way. I just wish I knew for sure. I'd hate to grow her out and realize that only a couple budsites have seeds ya know. As it is I'm basically losing all that nice sensemilla bud by pollinating her, so I really want an @ss-load of seeds. Besides, I have a grow-friend that I sort of promised some to;);).

PGWB,
A little pollen does go a long way. If you plan on smoking some of that seeded bud, take it easy on her, you don't need 200 seeds, at least i don't think you do :)

Lol, dont worry bro trust me a little does go a long way and i hope she has seeds galore:thumbsup:! I definitely pollinated this plant heavy because her only use is for seeds and i'm still probably gonna smoke her after picking all of the seeds out. She definitely wont yield much but she should still have that c99 kick! I finally have my 1k watter on the way so i'll just let my clones veg until the light gets here. Its probably gonna be like a 2 week delivery so the mother c99 will be nearly done when the others go in. Cant wait to get my perpetual up and running like ProGro's is, I gotta say bro that room is banging to say its just begun!:pimp:

Good deal Skrappie. Thanks for the input.
And no, I don't "need" 200 seeds per say, but if I'm gonna make seeds, then dammit I'm gonna make SEEDS! lol
Seriously though, I really lose a good percentage of the little space I have available by breeding these two, so I'm gonna let her have a full dose of pollen so that I'm not repeating this anytime soon. Besides a few grow friends sure would like to have some, and I don't want to give em just four beans and wish em the best ya know?

Well i stopped to check out the Pregnant C99 today and decided i'd take a few pics of her. Her buds are still small because of the T12 lamp and the fact that there not the right spectrum for flowering doesnt help either but she's solely for stocking up on seeds so i'm not really to disappointed. She has about 4 weeks and im excited because i really want to grow out the papaya x c99 seeds.
Anyway though here's a few pics of the beautiful pregnant mother!
