Bah! Roommate is useless, been hoarding power bill money and not paying it so I woke up today to our power turned off.
The plants got 4 extra hours of darkness and 4 hours without the airpumps running.
Roommate has gunshot wound in kneecap.

haha yeah, then I think he will learn his lesson.

The plants should be ok, not having the air pumps running for that long scares the fuck out of me, as well as having the light cycle tweaked, I dunno.

It'll be ok right?

Yeah I think you'll be just fine. That shouldn't have disrupted things to much. That's pretty good getting your power turned back on that fast.

haha I called PG+E every 15 minutes on the fritz that if the power wasn't turned back on my poor pet snake would freeze and wouldn't make it through the morning. They eventually showed up to save the day.

Homelife situation is rocky right now though. Homeboy has some explaining to do.

the grow looks nice. you gonna love that green crack a.k.a. green kush. that stuff flowers real fast but dosent yield real big, but the smoke is out of this world.

one question are you having heat problems? seem ur light is kinda high above ur girls? maybe its just the pics? the closer the light is without hurting ur plants the bigger the buds.

No, no heat problems, My light is only about 12 inches above the top of the canopy. Should I try to get it closer? I'm worried about the spread of the light when it's closer, I want to make sure it fills the whole 4x4 tent.

I have no experience growing this strain or know anyone who has so if you have any pointers I should consider? how many weeks flower time would you say? I try to go by trichomes but it's nice to have a rough guideline of what's going to happen.

Green Cush is known as Green Crack, they just change the name because allot of clubs didnt like then name because of the work "Crack". its is a very potent strain that smokes very very good. it is a low yielding strain. its usaly is done flowering 6-7 weeks. one of the faster flowering times on most strains. its is a cross of Skunk#1 x Afghani. the seed company's name is Cecil C. the bud set is very dense with a strong sweet fruity scent. this strain branches generously and flowers very quickly, its a Sativa hybrid.
this dosent mean this will be the case for you, the trics will tell the story for u.

the light in ur pic looked allot higher, but u could move it closer if it is a 600w, us ur hand to tell when its too hot on ur plants, but if u are going to lose covarge area then leave it, no need to shadow ur other plants for more instens light. i usaly keep my 1000w hps around 12-14" when its not hot in the winter time. some strains can handle the light being real close, if you see any wilting or any bleaching then raise the light asap. maybe even try 10" at first and see how they do then go down from their if needed? all i know is ive hade my 1000w pretty close and never had trouble. what works for me dosent mean it will work for you. try at ur own risk.lol

your hand will tell you if it too hot on ur girls or not. use ur own judgment on how hot it feels on ur hand.
