Episode 4: The Clone Colonies

[SnSstealth]

The freak was a HKxBI F1. Definitely leaning more towards the BI. I call her Jawdrop....lol. Any of my friends as well as myself, within 5 min of finishing the bowl, are sitting on the couch, mouth hanging open, lol. Good shit
The Church is quite the smoke too. Not too big a fan of the Smashberry, great smell and taste, but pretty boring high.

Feeding the girls in about 30min. Will take pics of the Episode 4 girls.

WT, bring the Jawdrop with yall, when you Four (you, DB, the wife & lil one) become Californians...

sns, do you feel that the hps and other supplemental lighting is important throughout the whole grow or just during flowering?

i've browsed through your 3 grows here and am impressed with the results...so much so that i now own a procyon which is being used for cloning and starting veg. the procyon is replacing my 400w mh/hps which it looks like i'm going to hang onto now.

[SnSstealth]

Procyon is hands down the shit for veg. Definitely need supplemental light for flowering.

glad to inspire:thumbsup:

Whiskey - How good do you think a room w/ vertical hps and overhead LED's would perform...I'd love to try this...

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh shit you know wuts up:thumbsup:

I'll def be tune in...

found this today and cut/pasted it from Wikipedia's hydroponic page:

NASA has done extensive hydroponic research for their Controlled Ecological Life Support System or CELSS. Hydroponics intended to take place on Mars are using LED lighting to grow in different color spectrums with much less heat

If hydro and LED's are good enough for NASA and the Martians, it's sounds just right for my spaceship...lol...

Correct,
We have found that something is definitely lacking with the LEDs. Dont get me wrong, you will still get some super dank with a procyon alone, but the yield and it appears finishing time are effected. So, IMHO, (and a few others I guess) adding the 3 70W HPS to the mix will give them the far-red/infrared that they need, or at least that we think we need. We could do this with LEDs, but the specific ones needed like the 730Nm are very expensive and sparse. So for now, we feel the HPS will do best. Damn sure cant hurt...lol
The floros, although only used for about 75% of the flowering cycle arent doing shit at the height we have to have em, so they are for the birds...

Im too stoned...picks tomorrow when more of the Episode 3 girls come down.

P.S.S (whatever) lookin like NCDG is gonna be in the line up!!!:woohoo:

Wuts up sns and everybody. I can not express how gratefull I am to have your guys experiences and knowledge to learn from. I am looking into purchasing a procyon and im wondering what you think about using floros, even cheap ones like International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums - An Inexpensive & Better CFL for Growing in Small Spaces to make up for the non-procyon spectrums?

[SnSstealth]

Great idea man....I even saw a couple procyons on ebay now. I was thinking about doing a procyon/CFL grow for quite some time before deciding what to do with Episode 5. Get on it man, you'll pop out some gorgeous nugs...
