400w Club-Show Off Your 400w Pride And Joy

No. A cool dark dry place, not a freezing dark wet place.

IE. put them in a pill bottle or something, and place them in a cabinet or drawer. Its simple. lol
 
Also. Hold onto your butts, I'm about to start flowering these ladies.
The one on the very left in the green pot is green crack, in the small black pot is a clone of respect og, and finally "the shrub" as I call her, is a bubba kush mother thats been vegging since november(thats right, I said november).
First off I would like to state that the green crack and respect og will be transplanted tomorrow, and then the timer will be set for 7pm to 7am. :)
I hope my closet doesnt get TOO full while they stretch . lol

Trust me she lives up to her name. you feel it in your head, eyes and body with almost zero burn out and she has her flavor of her mother(Shishkaberry)

Great job kish! First grow under a 400? You must have plenty of experience under something else 'cus that looks bomb! I'm on my third grow and can't get my plants to stay nice and full of dense nug like those, it always ends up all leggy with tons of small buds. How long do you veg?
 
Heres My 400 & My Flower room 4x4x6, going 12/12 on Monday!!! Pictures are from aweek ago, the plant on the right is in a 5gallon bucket now....

Thanks Man
Ya i use to grow under a 200w CFL for about a year and did 13 grows with it. I've also done 3 grows under 2 x 600w HPS.
Whats your temp and humidity? how do you water your girls? whats your ph? though's all can affect the way your girls end up.
When i water i like to water them above my sink and allow all the water to drain through and let it sit for ten min untill the water stops dripping from the pot.
I veg anywhere between 5-8 weeks. These girls vegged for about 6 1/2 weeks.
 
white widow x og kush clone at 7 weeks flower, 13 weeks total age. and blue dream clone 7 weeks flower, 10 weeks total age..


using a 400 watt digital next gen ballast with a digilux hps bulb 57,000 lumens...nice yield i think.

im using heaving 16 bud a & b nutes...exensive as shit but worth every penny of it! i tell ya, let the pics do the talking..

I will be flowering this monster all by itself under a 400w, it has been in veg for 106 days.

Hold off and rethink this one. At that height, your 400w HPS won't be able to penetrate the plant deep enough to make it worth while (i.e. end up with tons of whispy popcorn nugs at the lower colas). Get a screen (look up SCROG for more info) and gradually start to lower it on the plant, forcing the plant to go horizontally. You'll need something to actually tie the branches to the screen to help keep the main cola parallel to the screen. Do this for one week, then flower the plant. Depending on the strain it'll stretch. As it stretches, just pull the colas through the holes in the screen up until about week 4/5. Then let the rest stretch above the screen.

What this will do is create more of a consistent canopy height so that you can maximize the lighting from your 400w. The 400w HPS is really only going to penetrate about 18" - 22" vertically (from source light) so vegging a plant that tall will do little good. But by transitioning your plants height to the horizontal axis, you get to maximize your light usage, allowing those smaller colas to be more centered under the light and allowing them to grow upwards above the screen more quickly. Your 400w hps will easily cover a 2' X 2' horizontal space, a good amount of room for your current plant.

At the size you have currently (lacking a visual scale of reference in the pic of course), by forcing it to go horizontal I would anticipate that you end up with a 5oz+ plant here. I use a similar veg period and typically get 7-9oz per plant under a 400w so it does work.

Good luck

Day 18 flowering under 400w HPS in a Wooden Cab. Further details can be found in my signature.

Big fan of some of you guys.

Butters, I skimmed your whole grow about 5 or 6 weeks ago as I prepped for flowering in coco hempy buckets. Great stuff.
 
Here's my S1 Mango at 43 days of 12/12

20110409185044.jpg20110409185458.jpg20110409185234.jpg

I give her about three more weeks. It smells a lot like hash that's been dipped in fruit juice.

The rest of the plants pictured are all 43 days of 12/12 from seed. From left to right: Sugar Black Rose (Delicious Seeds), Kannabia Special (Kannabia), White Rhino (Green House), White Widow x Big Bud (Female Seeds), group shot.

All plants shown are planted in Ocean Forest, receiving FoxFarm nutes (basic trio) according to the FF schedule and been growing under a single 400w HPS.:joint:
