I want to thank everyone who followed this journal, I really appreciate the support!

I'll probably update this journal a few more times, but this journal will no longer be my primary focus. I'm going to start a new journal soon, and I have a lot of new strains and ideas to try. I'll try to juggle both journals for a bit, and then I will be back to one. I invite you all to come along with me. I'll drop a link as soon as I open the thread.

Thanks again, see you soon!

Awesome grow and excellent journal. What is your judgement on lighting after this experience? Some people do a grams/watt calculation, I suppose to calculate the energy efficiency, the off the cuff number for commercial growers seems to be a pound per 1000 watt hps, wondering how that scales down to normal home growers, most of whom use other sources of light.

Great project and documentation, I am moving my WWs to flower in a couple days and will put up a couple pics, nothing like your journal tho, awesome.

Why, thank you. lol

I think grams/watt is a good comparison for growers, regardless of the type of light source they use. If someone is using 400w of CFL's and producing weak yields, then they can see how much of a difference a HID would make for them. 1lb per 1000w light is a very weak estimate, because you can get 1lb using less energy, with proper care.

I look forward to seeing pics of your ladies!

Thanks again for stopping by!

Update:

2 months later...

I've got about an oz of White Widow remaining, and about 1.5 oz's of Blue Mystic remaining..smokes good, but they weren't ready.

Looking back, those trich's look WEAK.

I could have let both of these strains go up to 10 weeks.
