OK, yesterday I went to a grow that defied almost everything that I believe about having a good grow and believe it or not the guy was still producing against the odds.
Well first of all his veg and flower room are in his bedroom and the flower area consist of a box spring standing up against the end of his bed to act as a wall for the flower area but no other type of cover for the flowering area, and this is the kicker, even when the flowering lights are out he keeps the bedroom lights on and the light from his veg area is visible, you got it, there is no complete darkness he just has the bedroom light on with the door open and not to mention with family and friends going in and out. He is knowledgeable , at least he should be after working at the hydro store for a few years.
He has 11 strains of mothers, ebb and flow tables and a 1K for flower. The ones in flower had nuggs on them, no Hermes or serious stretching and that is with the light over a ft away, but though he had nugs, he didn't have beer can koalas, but after trying some smoke, it was bomb believe it or not.
What else, he had 1 FT tall plants or taller in those little 4x4 square planters that you would usually keep a plant in for about a week or two. The roots were busting threw the bottom and he didn't seem to think much of it. I would of had the plant in at least a 1 1/2 gallon by now, oh wait it is now since I have it. The poor thing, it is the size of a plant that has been in veg for about 4 to 6 weeks and he had it in that pot that was only a little bigger than a rubix cube.
I like him, but I guess this is what has worked for him and it fits his life style at this point. Also, he did give me a few new strains to mess with along with a rooted WW clone that was from the best looking mother in the stable.
Well, has anyone else seen grows like this??? Where flowering plants are basicly living in a area that is lit like the common living area, where people are just coming and out and where little bushes are succesfully kept alive in Rubix Cube size cubs and the grower is still producing? Also, he feeds all the different strains in his tray the same strength nutes and still can pull 3 zips off of a plant?
One big thing, even though I like the guy allot, the seen spooked me so much that I find it hard to consider going back over there and I don't want the guy to think I was just trying to hustle him for some strains, but I don't know, it is just so out there that I can't afford to risk myself for that kind of mind set. Any thoughts??
Adieu
