Subs Super Soil 101

You can see how the plants respond to intense light and early topping nice even growth and nice short spacing. This is maximizing lumens and canopy management at its max.


Itâ??s very hard to take pictures in my bud room because I run both a Metal halide and a HPS in combo so itâ??s impossible to white balance. I wanted you to see how full I am able to get a 6 x 11 bud room with just 11 plants using this method.
You can see how light is able to reach the maximum number of heads and filter down into each plant. The ones in the back got very tall this run and I had to tie them more bending the tops. You can see them bent over in these fuzzy pics. Again My skill in shooting is all in set up and I just took these in a dark room but you can still see how thick and lush everything is.:smokin:


I hope these tips help you guys if you need anything specific ask and I will try to get to it.

Subcool, you are amazing..

Well if you have followed my how to threads on Soil making, Topping, Transplanting, Plant bondage then you will love these pictures. This is the Subcab and its full to the max. We have a lovely assortment loaded in this full 11 x 5 area, its kinda crowded in there but your looking at 2 Apollo-13â??s, 2 Space Queen Câ??s, Tiny Bomb, Jacks Cleaner, JTR, Soul Cleaner, and JCB.

The hoods are almost raised to max in the rear and I have added a additional 400 MH in the center of the two 1000 watt hoods. I am also happy to have a full room of Sinsemelia as I have nothing seeded this round. We have our SQ male in the veg room and we will load up next run but for now its all about summer stash for Jill me and our patients

Were on day 31 here and itâ??s hard to believe Soul Cleaner will be done in only 20 days and Tiny Bomb is actually ready before this. I wonâ??t to max out the small wonder an go past 50 with her so when I meet with Bog in may I can put the red eye on him.
I see many people with all types of small problems that effect there end product, Temperature control is critical and I can maintain a temp of 75 degrees with the exception of August where it may creep to 80. I have 465 CFMs coming through
The two 1k hoods and a 8000 BTU window unit to cool and dehumidify this small area.
I also have 265 cfmâ??s of fresh air cross over from the photo room. I also have this area secluded up stairs and Iâ??m able to allow a box fan to circulate air from a 900 sq foot area.

If you have a canopy temp of over 90 without CO2 you are not reaching max potential.

These plants are in my super soil but the plant in Roots soil looks just as good. I have fed them only Ph adjusted water and one feeding of Bcuzz @ ¾ ML per gallon. I actually moved all my fancy colored bottles outside so I am not tempted by there claims of better results

Now what you don't see here is I carry plants that are in the in my former veg room anything that not of budding hieght gets moved into Vegroom Annex B at 6.am and moved back at 6pm. this gives me an extra bud area to finish off plants that have reached 30". Its a tight squeeze as the hood in this room can't be raised very much so the second plants finish in the main bud room like SQ C and 3D both very fast strains I have a fully mature already budding plant to fill the spot. This allows harvest very often but dosn't allow alot of free time of sleeping late.

Tip of the day!
You get out what you put in!!!

So what do you get from all this hard work?
This covers how a hyper person with OCD can divert his energy into a garden and using some not so standard methods pump up the yearly jar count.


I want to caution everyone again if you use this Super Soil as directed donâ??t feed your damn plants!! I canâ??t be more clear and even though I knew this I ignored my own advise(I do this a lot) and last crop was one of the worst ever as far as yield amazingly Jill and I were just commenting that burning the plants with to much nutrients seemed to make everything finish faster? Lets hope there is not a lot of experience on this theory.

Lighting is everything with pictures but taking pictures of Cannabis is very different for a few reasons. Many people cannot move there plants from out under there HID lighting and this makes it extremely hard to get a good spectrum if you canâ??t go mobile with your plants then move the good lighting into the room just before lights on and work fast!

If you can set up a area it only takes about 4x4 and some cheap white cloth to make a box and then a few CFLâ??s to shine either on the plant or bounce of the sheet according to desired effect. This one thing along with a back drop is why I take such great pictures.
Like growing weed the set up can be everything.

I think the canopy heat issue deserves discussing as I have seen a lot of heat related problems when people ask for my help. Heat can effect potency, taste, yield and also make you garden smell even worse as the buds cook under high temps.
Make sure you place a sensor at Canopy level so you know the ambient and radiant heat level.

Ok we havenâ??t been hiding this girl she was just far in the back and kinda hard to manage as shes almost 5 feet and lanky as hell. Then as day 50 approaches the magic of cannabis kicks in and something amazing happens. A pungent sour smell started moving around the garden last week and I couldnâ??t put my finger on it. Normally the Space Queen Cherry has the entire area reeking of Cherry funk but this was different. I used to tend bar and this smell reminds me of a whisky sour. Actually it reminds me of the catch trey at the end of the night after working with sour mix and triple sec all night. Even Jill the ultimate pot snob remarked that is the strongest sour I have ever smelled. Completely different from the block head Candy pheno she will show you guys later this one picked up that latent sativa trait you hear me speak of.

We really need Smellovision
This however is no mild Speed racer or even the Sativa Dom 3D I posted last night. Where that one smells like Jamaican to me this one is just wild. It had two suck ass tips on the buds that I chopped off earlier and the buds took on a much better look but I left one un topped so you can see why we didnâ??t keep this cut even though I cannot wait to smoke it.
One really cool thing about being a breeder is once I create a strain finding another pheno is just a matter of cracking some more beans. Our garden is not set up for strains that take longer than 60 days simple if theres things in the Agent Orange seeds that smells like this you will see me cracking some more seeds very soon. If you filled your garden with this female and the Block head one youâ??d have hella variety and both ends of the high spectrum

subcool, all of your threads that i have seen are amazing and make me want to grow and be able to have the ability you have.. wheni get my own place i am most defintely gonna hunt one of these down for some advice.. keep em coming and thank you

Well itâ??s time to show you guys one of the things that makes my job hard at times. This is 3D and its my final run growing her out. Whatâ??s wrong with this plant you ask? Not a god damn thing, but I simply canâ??t keep every girl I run and so I have passed this girl on for safe keeping and distribution with a medical friend of ours ( Smokey). She looks even better one her clone run and at day 47 sheâ??s getting close to complete.

Before looking at the buds lets get resinated
