Most of the plants are 30-35cm tall so I'm guessing they will be about a meter tall by harvest

I couldn't keep the mother in her box any longer so I let her out to flower at roughly 1 meter tall.
After two weeks out of the box under 18 hours of 400w HPS its about 1.5 meters but I bent it at a 90º angle.

My setup consists currently of 1X 20L crate, 1X 30L pot, 3X 15L pots, 1X 10L bucket and 2X 5L Orchid nets.
It took two and a half bags of Hydro-ton to fill and I still need to plant 3 more little guys. I will need to get another light setup soon as they are going to out grow the 1X 400w HPS and the 1X 400w MH pretty soon if not already.

I have no idea what strain it is.
A random drug dealer gave me some seeds I got three reliable plants and have been cloning and re-growing them ever since.
The plant grows like mad and really needs to be trained. I usually get about 8 ounces off plants 1 meter high.
My old wardrobe setup had three plants that took up every available bit of room but could easily produce a LB.

These are the chemicals that I'm using on this crop
Plantastic Part A and B: I've grown with other two part bloom mix's but I cant seem to see any difference so I'm sticking with Plantastic for now.

DM Zone seems to be working well.
I've used Cannazyme and Rhyzotonic which
both work great but this stuff is half the price.

I start to use "earth juice" about a month before harvest.
It smells like concentrated garbage but it gives the plants
a nice fruity flavor and supposedly helps it to grow or something.

This stuff U use in the last two or three weeks of flowering.
It makes the buds swell up 2X-3X and start dripping with oil.
You don't want to try this stuff too early as it can slow down
your budding rates.

This one is a great finishing product. This one is Blueberry flavor, they also do strawberry and pina colada.

This product is great for clones. I'll water them with this stuff but it works great foliar fed at half strength too.

This is the mother box that I made from a porter-robe (clothes box).
I usually have 2 more CFL's in it but they are being used for side lighting at the moment,
but as you can see it puts out plenty of light as it is.
Unless you don't want it to eg: when the adults are flowering.
I managed to almost completely light proof it. At night with the lights out you can just see a little bit of light escaping.

This is the biggest plant other than the mother.

This is the mother plant bent at 90º.
I used a piece of 20mm hose as a collar and tied her down using tie wire.

My system is a bit of a mess at the moment. After they get a bit bigger I'm going to buy
another HPS bulb, shade and lamp fitting to hook up to a spare HPS ballast.
I'm probably going to get another light or two before too long.
They sell complete second hand 400 watters at the local hydro store for $125
although the power bill is going to be interesting.

I had three seedlings still in coffee cups awaiting transplant.

I still don't have anywhere to put them but these orchid pots will do for now.

Now I can sit back and relax until Friday when I have a house inspection. I'm just going to drain the tank the night before and line everything up against the wall with stacks of transit cartons in-front of them. Once the inspection is over I'm going to totally re-configure my set up. I might give DWC a go on the three plants in small orchid pots.

Feel free to post in my journal. I'm interested in any help anyone can give me and I'm happy to give advice to anyone that needs it.
