ill let cha know in a couple more days .. its hanging and drying .. has to be atleast a half ounce or more.. the crazy thing.. is that plant wasnt really vegged for more then 2 weeks .. and all the tops are huge.. you can kinda see in that picture.. I think it will be around 4 zips.. for a 16 inch clone.. IM super happy .. Im gonna keep this white widow genetics for a while.. and probably grow some larger ones in the future.. But I will update the exact weight once its all done drying :)

well it wasnt my first grow.. I been growing for 2 years or so .. but at another location.... I started in a Collective... the collective had a location for growing and we each had our own room.. I paid a certain amount towards the property rent.... BUT it was my first SOLO grow .. Before I always had other people to lean on.. help ect.. This setup is my first time I was responsible from seed to smoke. BUT its really nice controlling all elements.. I could go on for hours about the other location.. it started out great.. but certain people were lazy and greedy.. and if one person got mites.. we all got mites.. if one person had to use a pesticide.. the whole property was on central air and so we all got our gardens fumigated.. I couldnt take it.. most of the guys were greedy because growing is how they paid their bills.. They would do WHATEVER it took to have a harvest.. and I didnt like that. I knew it was bad when Half of the guys wouldnt even smoke their own product. I mean They would have a pound right next to them and go to clinic to pick up a 8th to smoke.

So I took it into my own hands.. now I do it myself....I have a good job so my grows are not profit driven....I control everything ... So i know what I am smoking.. what my friends are smoking what my relatives are smoking... and I dont have to worry about what has been done to my meds.

SORRY for the blabber

I had a feeling this wasn't your first grow lol It all makes sense now! Too bad it didn't work out though. Sounds like some major douchery was going on. I don't understand how you could get into this and not give a shit. Just being involved with my own grow for a short time I don't think I'll ever get lazy, but then again I'm not making money hand over fist either...

Dude, I'm the last person you need to apologize to for babbling LOL You have seen my journal haven't you? ahahaha I'm the fuckin blabber king over there man.
 
wow those plants look killer!!! cant wait to try some. the alien og is amazing! all those tops on her.wow..the first pic too on the first page looks amazing.

Thanks Lantern .. You be happy to know.. that I picked up the rest of my hydro supplies today.. and I have a bucket with a temp gauge in my flower tent tonight to see if the water temps will be tolerable for a summer hydro experiment.

On a side note.. Check it out.. I decided to pull the vent off my central air intake.. just to check the filter.. the PHUCKING thing was clogged completely and bent up form the pressure of the air trying to pull it in. Went to the home depot and bought a new "high flow" central air intake filter.. Today it was prob 105.. it was 71 in my house .. and the tent is at 78.6 with 2000 watts pumping .. I got a 5 degree drop from that filter lol.. I kept telling myself to check it.. but kept forgetting.. I bet that 3 dollar filter cost me hundreds in electricity because the ac was NEVER turning off .. just ran all day keeping the house cool.. now today it is cycling every hour or so.

LONG STORY SHORT.. with the decrease in temps.. im hoping I can give this dwc a run :)

You definitely should be fine in those temps. I wouldn't worry yourself. Let me know how your experiment turns out. Are you starting a new journal separate for the DWC? I need pics!!! I'm excited like whoa. Please feel free to describe your whole setup in great detail, my friend. Can't wait to see what your expertise can do with the added power of hydro. Godspeed to you sir!

My reservoir gets above 73.5, but only when the venting has been all fscked up from myself. With the rez under the tray I don't have a problem. How is your res/ grow medium setup? I'm familiar (familiar like I have read about it, not familiar like having used one) with DWC, but I have seen a few different variations. I am really curious to know how you are working everything.

Also, what is all the equipment you got for it? Pics or it didn't happen...! :}

Finishing up the bubble buckets this afternoon.. New genetics are on the way .. Im determined to find 2-4 that I LOVE and can run consistently.. everything has been good so far.. BUT .. I know the right genetics will make this setup even better.. SOO here is what I ordered for now

Platinum Bubba ( Oaksterdam)
Skywalker OG ( dutch Passion Seeds)
DJ Shorts Blueberry ( delta 9)
Headband and a strain called whiteberry.. Its a white widow x blueberry cross..

The company that provided my chemdog and blue dream last go around is providing these clones.... They had a contest where you email them pics of your finished clones you got from them.. and if they like em and use your pics for advertising you get your order free.. SO they are giving me 6 of my clones for the best price ever :)

Also ordered some seeds.. Agent Orange and a couple other TGA genetics.. still impressed with the querkle I have from them and I wanna see what there other strains could do... Maybe by xmas I can decide or find 2-4 keepers :)

Steez or Lantern or any of you socal greenthumbs.. you know im more then willing to share once I mom these out if you wanna try em :)
