Started out as a clone I got from a buddy. Was grown in Pro-Mix organic soil with perlite and vermigulite mixed in. Only nutes being....this will sound silly, aquarium water and bannana peel smoothies =p. Lights are for veg, 8 24" vho t-5's 6700k ran 24/7. and flowering is a 100w hps =\ plant gets turned 90* every 6 hours when the light is on which is 9pm-9am, religously I might add..Been flowering since the 1st of july..couldnt tell you what strain it is, but have smoked the end product and there is certinly no dissapointment and very pretty looking. New to growing far from it smoking.
First Grow, LST gone crazy, made due with what i had =)

Turn your plants 1/4 turn every day.
I dig that you do things religously.
Experiments are great fun and good learing.

Are you useing home made co2?
What I did was get a 5 gallon bottle (wal mart 7$) and added 1 gallon of warm water 4 tbls of yeast (cheaper in bottle, super wal mart) and about 4 cups of sugar. Also I sat the bottle on a heater pad (low) and it bubbled for days and days. Works great.

hehe =\ that is what you see there, im just doing it for the babies ( room constraints) once again that me just being silly. Ya i work at an aquarium store so ill never run out of fish water =), its actually a very good fertalizer but does require to flush the plant every so often
Its not actually fruit juice, its old bananna peels mashed with water then strained. I wouldnt use actually juice, god only knows what the sugars would do

Hey man looks great! Your turning the plant everyday has demonstrated that you are willing to do what ever helps so...get some reflective material in there on those particle board walls, or paint them white. It would be well worth it.
And feel free to check out and/or post on the LST thread > https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/196569-great-riu-lst-thread-low.html
Happy growing, peace.

I saw that thread after i posted this one, i use the same kinda tie downs except the whole thing is plastic, works very nice.
The next one wont nearly get as out of control. It should be intresting to see what develops of my current one

its gonna take forever to finish though, but it'll be great watching it happen. first time is so magical (for lack of a better descriptive word ill use magical) it gets me excited just thinking about it.
What do you mean it will take forever to finish?
Well, plants doing awesome buds are everywhere fairly big and almost a pain in the ass sticky (if that possible). I added a 30lb co2 tank that is on a solenoids on a timmer with my lights. Shortly after doing that she exploded and I needed to do some tieing down

It all looks pretty good man. I just think you are paying way to much for the hood/reflector. For that kind of coin you could get a much better air cooled one , or even a cool tube. Both of which would allow you to put your plants closer to the light. Are you familiar with HTG suppy ? Ok there site is down right now, but they have the best deals on lights, hoods, and reflectors. I realize you already bought stuff, but thats just my take on it.
Keep 'em green.
Peace.

Actually funny you mention that, the day job consists of owning an aquarium store. Sunlight supply is our lighting supplier. So I actually got it at cost =)

Fantastic! Did you know that fish aquarium water is great to give to your plants? I have not done this, (i would if i had a fish tank) but you should look into it for sure since it is available to you. The fish poop and pee in the water is great fertilizer, and theres other beneficial microbes and bacteria in it too.
Already ahead of ya =) been doing that since she was just a little tyke =P. I mentioned it in the earlier posts
New light came last night, got them set up. The ballast runs very cool, after 9 hours of it running i was able to to touch it, lick it, play with it, you name it. The rooms tempeture peaked out at 76* which is a bit warmer under the other light which peaked at 70* but should not cause any problems till i upgrade to two 600 on a rail.
Will post pic tonight, also going to pick up some paint and plan on painting the room flat white later today or tomorrow.
So happy =)
