My very first grow

[Hydroponic Cabbage]

sorry forgot to mention my final dry weight for the first plant was 37 grams so I was happy about that

[Opie Yutts]

For those of us who aren't gram guys, that's about 1 1/3 oz. How fast do you guys go through an ounce? When I have all I want, I can easily go through 2 ounces per month. That's not counting sharing any. I want to learn to cook better, but smoking is just too damn handy.

Still looking forward to that ALL AMBER smoke report.

AT, you could give us your version of an All Amber report as well.

It'll usually will last me almost a month or so...depends on the quality of the bud.

Still looking forward to that ALL AMBER smoke report.

Thanks for all your complements guys...but I still haven't harvested yet. For some reason this plant is taking a little longer that the other one did.

Oh...I also wanted to get you guys opinion on this cabinet i have that measures 24 deep X 48 X 76 tall. Trying to plan out my next grow, and was wondering if this cab would work to run a 400w hps dwc grow? (with proper ventilation of course) I'm still in the planning phase; so a lot could change before I even start my next grow. (kinda just playing around with ideas)

[Opie Yutts]

I don't see why that wouldn't work, my 400W is in a space smaller than that, but then again the front is open so venting is not a big issue as yours would be if you keep the doors closed. The way that is set up already with the 3 sections, I would seriously consider 2 250W. One MH and one HPS with a separate veg and bud chamber. That way you could harvest twice as often, if that matters to you. It's really nice to be able to harvest and immediately be able to start more plants flowering. However I'm not sure you would get anymore bud overall that way if you use the same amount of space either way. If you take out that middle support keep in mind that might be important for load bearing reasons.

Sorry I haven't updated in a while. It's been almost 16 weeks and I think all the trichs are about amber so I'm going to harvest this weekend, but I wanted to show some final pics before I do.

As far as the cab; I'm going to start a new thread in the indoor section as soon as I get everything up an running. I think I'm going to run 2 400w mh cool tubes in a recirculating DWC...

So wish me luck

Just harvested my second plant today...I was looking at pics from the 1st plant compared to this one; and the buds on this one seem to be a lot more dense (can't wait to see what the smoke is like :jointsmile

Nice feeling isn't it? Too see your work finally come together and hanging up to dry.

Seems like you're making extra work for yourself by tying each bud onto the shelves. When I dry on those same kind of shelves I bend the stem an inch or so from the bottom, then I can hang it over one of the wires at the bend, and stick the very end of the stem under an adjacent wire. The weight of the bud keeps the end of the stem pushing up on the wire, and it's held nicely in place.

Good going.
