My new upgraded grow room/journal

Hey guys I figured I would start a new journal instead of taking over others with my pic's! I started with a 3'X4' grow room about three years ago with a 600w cheap ebay special switchable balast. Now I am running three 1000w the same 600w and one 2' T5 4 bulb system. My total grow area now is 22'X12' so minor upgrade!!! :hump: I am also legaly allowed to grow 30 plants right now soon 45! I always follow the law and am completely legit! I have spent a shitload of time and money upgrading, always putting back into the sys upgrading and trying to learn as much as possible.

This is my nute line and soil general info
I use R/O water PH'd to 6.3 or close to it!
FFOF soil, no amendments yet 5 gallon buckets
and the full lineup of House & Garden
Humidity ranges from 45%-55% and I am just waiting to get another De-Humidifier!
Temps run from 65 at night to 75 durring the day

Current strains I have rolling right now

VEG
DNA Genetics Cateract Kush! Love this strain!
Sannies Herculies! One of my fav's
Sannies Sugar Punch clones 1st time
Sannies Koulussus 1st time
Dutch Passion Blueberry 1st time
Barneys farm LSD 1st time
G-13 Pineapple express 1st time
Nirvana Bubbelicious
A local Kush
Bubble Gum from Cali

In my Veg room I just bumped up to a 1000w M/H in a XXXL Magnum hood air cooled. And I have my little ladies under a Sun Blaze T5HO 24". I tried using an ez-cloner for a few weeks but had no success, :? and I do a perpetual grow so I went back to good old rapid rooters and humidity dome!

Flower

Local Kush
Nirvanas Snow White
Nirvana AK-48
Sannies Sugar Punch
Sannies Kolousus

In my flower room I have two 1000w HPS and I threw in my 600w M/H in the middle cus I wanted some blue in there to help out a little. All run on dedicated outlets with their own breaker. I have 6 ocelating fans to keep that air moving and one 440 cfm fan that draws out used air through a carbon filter. My 1000's are air cooled in block buster hoods, fresh air to fresh air. Here are a few pics of the flower room, I only have 8 ladies in there right now. I had a cloneing issue a while back so it fucked me on my perpetual rotation. :roll: No worries I'm back on track!

Here are a few pic's of my Nirvana Snow White, very impressed this time! I am pissed that I didn't take clones of her, I had a shitty exp with that strain last time I grew them.

I'm trying to get through my Nirvana beans probably just store them. I "like most people" have a hermie problem with their beans. I won't stop growing their Bubbelicious! To me it's a great all round strain. Their AK-48 isn't impressive either, it's good mids smoke but once you start growing out some of the "expensive" strains or just some good ass genetics it is hard to go back to Nirvana. And now they are raising their prices?????? They better step up their game if they are going to charge what the big boys charge! JMHO

I am on the tail end of a Powdery mildew problem. "Knock on wood" I hope it's gone I have lost at least two plants due to that fucking shit! And I had a problem with PH when I first started. Other than that I havn't had to many problems. My latest problem was routing my ventilation and not recycling air. That is why I am getting dips down to 65 at night, and I am not running my lights at night so maybe a heater? No biggie nothing I can't live with for now.

Anyway I'm done I think????? All questions are welcome I will update with pic's at least every Sunday, and if ya want some pic's of a certian strain let me know I can run out there and snap a shot. I am in my rooms at least 5 hrs a day! :weed:

Man buddy thats some shitty news i remember u telling me about your light you left on i didnt think they would with just one night but i guess its true. I know that light leaks and shit is some bull shit but a actual light with enough power will do it, man thats a bummer.

Well live and learn, now i bet ur ass is in there a 2nd and 3rd check just to make sure those un-necessary lights arent left on.

Yeah brotha there isn't any reason in getting pissed off, what's done is done! Here are some pic's of the little piggy. Hope she tastes alright with no flush! And yes I know it says 2007! LOL She only took 2.5 hrs to trim, without all that small shit on the bottom trimming is way fucking quicker!

fucking awesome new journal Howard!! You have a really sweet set up and just gorgeous girls. so big and volouptuous.
Your strains are mighty tasty. Im not familiar with them all. I was pleasantly surprised to see Snow WHite on your list. I have a jar of her with a good 6 month cure on and what a beautiufl smoke. I had a hard time controlling her height, she just loves to stretch on me. Pineapple Express will be a huge yeilder for you. I have seen a lot of gardeners grow her recently and they have all had exellent results. I grew the bubblebomb(tchbomb x bubblegum) and man what big fat colas..massive..
You have a very impressive portfolio of strains which will show some really nice contast of color, shape , size , ect in your garden. It already looks so wonderful. GOod luck Howard.
i hope everything goes smoothly this round for you.xox amber
