400w MH/HPS conver bulb grow in 4x3x2cab growlog

anyone care for an update...no one has gave any incite for a month...just wondering if anyone is following our grow

anyways heres a quick list:

-new veg/clone tent.
-more Advanced Nutes mixed into a big 5 gal gatorade thermos with spout.
-bigger pots.
-Made drying chamber.
-chopped both original females a lil early to make room for some good genetic strains...they were dried and cured, some smoked, some went into brownies. there is still a bagseed clone in 12/12 that is just one gigantic cola)
-Purple Kush in flowering (about twice the size of the 2 bagseed females when with flipped it to 12/12)
-LA confidential, Northern Lights Blue have been vegging for approximately 40 days.
-Clone chamber has just been restocked with LA and NLB

if anyone would like pics...leave a comment or two about our setup, let us know anything you would like to see in the future and what not. I just need to know if anyone is interested.

I'm interested, and would like to see the pics of what you have going on now. Are you still trying a scrog method or something else?

Best rule I heard was that if you wouldn't take a bath under the light, shouldn't have plants under it either :twocents:

Happy growing :jointsmile:

The best way to tell when your plants are ready to come down is when 2/3 of the white hairs turn red or when your resin glands turn from clear to cloudy. It all depends on what kind of plants you have growing. Some take longer then others. I would say the average is 55-60days in flowering.

Well our first yield was pretty small. only about an ounch and a half out of one plant. and the plant was a herm so it has some seeds in it. but it got pretty crystally and smells fruity. They are still curing right now though

So we moved everything to a larger room because the last room was getting pretty cramped.

picture 1: the new set up. Flowering on the left, veging on the right.
Picture 3: This is my homemade sound reduction chamber and it also allows us to run the warm air through the wall and into the rest of the house. keeps my place a little warmer in the winter.

Picture1: the 2 in the back are both supposedly purple kush and the right one has been in flowering about 2 weeks longer then the left one but the left one was in veging longer. the front two are L.A. Confidential and Northern Lights Blue and they are on the same life cycles and are about 30days from the purple kushes.

Picture 2: This is our youngest purple kush in flowering. As you can see the SCoG got away from me and instead of trying to fix it, we are just gonna let it go and see how it goes.

Picture 3: close of the purple kush. this particular plant has been flowering for 22 days

Picture 4: same purple kush as the last picture

Picture 5: Far right are all of the clones starting to grow, middle: a purple kush plant i'm just messing around with, seeing how much stress it can take before it shows signs of stress, how long it can go without water, etc... stuff like that. dont plan on ever flowering this one so it doesn't bother me at all. Left: Mature purple kush being SCoGed

just a couple close up pictures of the purple kush. i was told this is purple kush but not certain if it really is. If anyone has ever seen legit purple kush let me know what it looks like.

I thought people wanted to see our progress....I enjoy helping people and other people giving us help. This is only our first time so i'm sure there are tons of techniques and trick of the trade that we don't know.

- Any bit of advice anyone has please post it.

We are always trying to improve our system and would like to eventually start splicing strains and try and come up with our own strain. Again any advice anyone has in this area would be awesome. as of right now we're sticking to predominant Indica strains because of their shorter flowering period.

the only problem we are having is that our L.A. Confidential is being very sensitive. The leaves are getting burnt so i drew back the nutrient levels to about half for a week or so and very little changed. Also the clones we took from the L.A. are having a hard time taking root. I know its the plant and not the enviromental conditions because i took clones of the Northern Lights Blue at the same time and they rooted fine.
