Thanks for the advice I will try it this grow with an eighth this time. Hope the smoke is good. I would love just a small ammount that was a smoth ass smoke! I will check it out. Here is a pic of my roots from my 5 gal bucket. Roots wall to wall on this bad boy!

Damn bro that pretty much looks root bound to me. I wonder if that was the reason you buds stop swelling and the hairs and leaves were acting a little funny? Maybe five gallons is too small for four foot plant? Maybe seven gallon pots are the best way to go? I think I'm using five gallon pots right now (not certain b/c it seemed like I put seven gallons of soil in them lol). I think I might pick up some seven gallon pots for my next grow, so long as I can fit them in my space w/out any problems. Something to think about bro. If you want to keep rocking with five gallon pots, maybe schedule a "root" pruning at some key point in the grow, just insure they dont get root locked again. Cut of about third of the bottoms roots, and replace that space new soil, gives the plants room to keep growing during the flowering. I've did it on my last transplant and the plants stopped growing for about three days, but then took off. IDK, pruning is messy and pain in the ass, so I think I will get some seven gallons next.

Yeah I don't know if I have room for 7 gal pots maybe I can pick up the 7 gal bags for planters next time i am at the hydro shop. But that is a good idea on why my plants didn't plump up at the end. We will see what the others do here. I just put a second coat on my "waiting to go into the veg room box". I built a box that can accomidate three plants in 5 gal buckets. Maybe later it will trun into my clone/mini veg room. I am going to put a shitload of CFL's in there later but for now I have to pot up my Bubbalicious plants that I LST'd they are getting root bound again.

Alright Howie, it night time, plenty of time for that popcorn bud to have dried. Take out you Hampster pipe, place one well dried bud in the Hampsters head, place its ass in your mouth, set head afire, and start puffing lol!

Hey guys here is my new veg box that I built yesterday. I painted it yesterday except for one wall cus I wanted to piggy back the ventalation from my other room. I had to build this one cus my Bubbalicious plants needed to be potted up to 5 gal so I threw this thing together, I had most of the wood so this thing cost me about 25 bucks cus I had to buy the paint and 2X4's.

Thanks Cryp my final weight on my first plant dry is 2.7 oz. I am happy as fuck with that! I jared it up today, if it looses a little bit of weight that is fine 2.5 is fucking amazing for me on my first grow! I am supper stoked about the weight I ended up with, not so stoked with the smoke though. I get fucked up on it and my buddy that smoke alot says it is above average. I am not happy with "above average"! So I am moving away from Nirvana seeds unless Cryp grows out that WW and says it is the bomb! I think it is time to pay the money for good seeds. I have the Kush seeds so we will see once I start growing that shit. The NL from Nirvana is fine but I want DANK. I can't settle for above average.

Yeah all three of them. I just spent about 2 hours transplanting them to 5 gal buckets and LSTing them back down and tieing their new branches down. I hope all this LST shit works out in my favor. I also have my favorite mother plant from my bubbalicious plants.

Thats great news. 2.5 oz per plant is not bad at all. I think you should go for the better genetics, I think thats the only thing holding you back from reaching he 4 oz. mark. "Above Average" is not bad at all for smoke, considering that NL is an old strain, and the stuff they put out today is so strong, but I feel you. I'm sure you can do better.

Still not sure if I will grow these Nirvana WW and AK. First I want to get my grow room updated with all the updates, and if have enough money left over, then I will buy two quality stains. The Nirvana WW and AK are good/ok stains but they rate a little weak on the potency and yield side.

I think you should grow those Kush strain next. I know it will cost you four weeks or so of grow time, but if you can get 2 oz. more per plant then it will be more than worth it. Plus those Dna OG strains or so popular you can prob. charge more for it per oz. Bubble gum = OG minus yield and potency. Just a better way to go all the way around my brother.

Yeah I am going to start all my Nirvana seeds and grow them out. I am also going to start one Kush, probably a caract Kush and make that my mother plant. I am hopeing that these bubbalicious from Nirvana aren't as dissapointing as the NL. I am not totaly disapointed but not really happy with them. I am thinking now that I will need to spend the money on the seeds now to get the genetics. It is just so tempting to go cheap with Nirvana. I can't say nothing bad about Nirvana all seeds germinated and all grew weed but I am on the hunt for some dank shit so I don't believe Nirvana is for me. We will see though I was interested to see what your WW did Crypt. Let me know if you start those out.

Sounds like a plan. Dont think you can go wrong with either one. If you can, get a mother of both lol. Do a half/half grow. Easier said than done tho, cant turn the whole house into greenhouse lol.

Yeah you aren't fucking kidding! It seems like I have plants all over this fucking house! LOL I am supprised the kids don't know what the fuck is going on. But kids nowadays just do their thing and don't pay attention to anything! Lucky me. If they say anything it is cool being the "adult" and tell them not to worry about it! :) My parents told me that alot I wonder if they were getting high?????? :P No worries though I will get my setup done here soon. I just need to get my lineup down so I know when to clone so I have a steady harvest of 6 plants a month for me and my MMJ patients. 6X2.5X$250........... I love being in the medical feild.
