Alright last bump. I wasn't even sure what happened with all the screwy business with RIU the last few days.

Things are doing alright. I'm still bummed I ever messed with this. I have nothing to really be excited about. I'm currently outta bud so I'm vapin' my shake from the last batch. At least when I get to smokin' this stuff it should get me really high.

The screen. It's just a pain in the ass. zillions of little nugz, like the polar opposite of what I enjoy for my own smoke. No more scrogs for this guy.

There are some decent sized buds, but last time they were seriously sitting next to my 5 gallon water jugs and were just silly.
I was really into that silly shit. It just seems like the screen makes things more of a pita than they need to be. And I think you could get away with 400w lights for a SCROG.

I'll definitely enjoy it and the grow was definitely successful. After all the WW I've already smoked I'm almost not looking forward to smoking all of this, haha. It's like I married this strain, I'm lookin' for some strange!

Don't worry about it in the beginning. In the 1x1 cube just water from the top, probably daily under that light. Make sure you start with the light a good ways away as the seedlings are touchy. Make sure to use the covers later if you transplant to larger cubes. Especially if you STILL hand water in the large cubes in the beginning.

It's by no means dry, but it filled 12 jars pretty tight so I'm going to guess that it's about 11 - 12 oz's.
Not very good, but I reused the lamp this time around and I really made a big mistake that I somehow didn't catch.
When I fogged the room this last go around I remember spraying the shit out of the lens for the light hood. I remember thinking "You better clean that glass later".
Well I didn't remember any of that until I looked at the glass lens after taking it out of the tent. Completely covered in filmy shit...son of a bitch. So I turned it on, cleaned the lens and could watch it get brighter where I was cleaning. What a fuckin' dumbshit move.
So I've cleaned the glass thoroughly and replaced the 600w lamp and just like all the other mistakes I've made while growin' pot, I won't make this one again.
There may be an installment directly behind the Fucking Incredible. It will probably be a socal clone strain, but it'll be fun nonetheless as well. Once these FI bitches get a little bigger I'll go on the hunt for some clones and get something else going. I'm going to use my 4x8 veg space as a 4x8 flower space and my 4x4 tent to flower as well. I don't grow over the summer so I'm going to be looking to bang out as much as possible. Hoping over the next few months with all my space growing at full capacity I can get 3-4 lbs done this year before summer starts back up again.

Laser,if you don't mind, I recommend buying another 600 wt lite. Dual ballist if possible. I'm running two 1000wt hps and a 400wt MH cooltubes inline and feel that I still have inadequit lighting. I'm running an 8x8x8 room with the lights down the center. I now wish i bought 4 600s and spaced them evenly over the grow room. I would have had better coverage AND I would be able to lower the lights. As it is,I cannot lower the lights because I lose coverage when I do....and those 1000 watters are freaking hot!!
As it is ,I have to keep 3 types of bulbs on hand. What a pita that is. Had I used 600s, I could have ordered bulbs by the case.
I think you're on the right track, add more 600s to it.

Oh yeah, I've already purchased one additional 600w. I'm going to purchase a third one. My veg space is about 8x3 so while the FI grow is flowering I will get some dispensary clones and I will probably flower all of them in the veg space as well so I'll have 3 flowering at the same time and I can shut down when summer comes back around again. So it'll be 1800w total flowering power and I'll stagger the schedules so it's really 1200w during the late night and 600w during the day. Should work out beautifully throughout the winter. I just need to save some dough to buy more equipment, gonna need another carbon filter and another fan. I'm going to cool the lights seperately from the room just for the hell of it.
I think I'll pass on 1k lights just because I'm happy with the performance of the 600's.

Sounds like a good plan, maybe some co2 as well? I checked the lighting chart and it showed the 600 to be overall more efficient....damb I wish I went that route...
I've got a perpetual that turns over 8 plants every three weeks. I have six white widows going right now, one 4 we3eks in the others are two anahalf weeks in.

I've never really wanted to deal with co2. I don't have a sealed room and a constant flow of fresh air. I know it can be pretty damn beneficial, but it's another hassle I don't really want to deal with. If I ever get the abillity to build a dream room that is sealed I'll start messing with all that.

I hear what your saying about wishing you bought 600ws, and the not being able to lower the lights because of loss of coverage. I am running 1k HPS and (2) 400w MH with conversion bulbs. 3 600ws would be much better from my space.......
