Hi RIU hows it going?

Right so after a year out of action im back.
Here is a run down of my set up (pics coming soon):

Strains: 1x UFO#1 CH9 Fem Humboldt (free seed), 1 x Northern Lights Fem, 2 x Barney Seeds Auto Pineapple Express Fem.
Light: Brand New 400w Duel Spectrum Sunmaster Bulb - 95,000 lumens.
Soil: Gold Label - Special Mix
11litre pots.

Environment:
Half a cupboard about 8ft high.

Story so far...

My friend started the Humboldt for me..... big mistake! He thought he was doing well but the poor girl was stretched to hell with my 400w, not sure how he managed it as was such a small grow space.... Basically got her, stretched as hell. Put her straight into 11litre pot and buried her up to top leaves and stressed the hell out of her. Then 2 days after my light I stupidly hung with string broke and sat like 2 inches next to it and crisped it up good and melted a pot in there.

Im thinking she may hermi on me as been stressed to hell. See how it goes.

Popped the northern lights 26/11 and waiting for it to now break soil. Then currently popping 2 Auto Pineapple Express that will probably go in soil 28/11.

Reason I have photoperiod and autos in same grow is down to needing money. I grow in my parents house with permission and they need helping out so im trying to help them. The 2 autos I want a high yield quick turn around. Lights will be 18/6 until the autos are done then the NL & Humboldt would be vegged for long time by then and hopefully flip and grow them into some nice monsters.

Open to suggestions etc and hope some people tag along for the ride!
Will get pics up soon as possible. Thinking maybe take my first go at cloning with the NL at some point :)

Happy Growing everyone :weed:

Sorry no pics. Here's the deal. I am upgrading to a 600w and gonna pop couple more beans!
Got to think of a way to deal with the heat.
Anyone know how much extra it puts out compared to 400w?

Thanks people.

Brilliant mate. Topped to get 4 main cola and 2 slightly smaller. Seems quite a while to flower. But she had a stressed life so can't blame her. Real tasty and sweet smell. Think potential being my favourite strain. Fast growth etc. hardy.

sounds good! Yea I am waiting for jack, Humboldt and vintage 2006 from CH9. Will be nice to see from my seeds to known genetics. Guy that gave me my seeds I did some motor work on his 1981 firebird. First he told me they were OG Kush seeds from his bro and then a week ago told me his grandpa breed this strain over ten years of growing outdoor. Sooo, its some random bag seed in my mind lol.

yea definitely a fun surprise. In the 15 I planted only 12 made it though to get to veg. Already killed 2 males and need to kill a few more. Its very crazy how some of the same batch of seeds look very indica and some look very sativa

Yeah man all depends how you like your plant to grow and what you prefer. But gives you a nice selection I think to pick your favourite :)

Ya I cut my biggest plant down was a hermie. The new biggest plant is pretty sexy. It looks mostly setiva and has great nodes so probably will end up my mom plant of this strain.
