enjoy :weed:


Wow man! Those look great. What size are those buckets? I know you started with1.5 gal, but what size are those? The buds look amazing and your lollipoppin looks perfect. Do you remove any fans or is that just the way the strain develops? My pk have huge fans.
Very very very nice my friend!!:weed:

thanks man bongsmilie

those are the same 1.5's I started with. I could fit about 16 total in there but 12 girls at this size almost maxes out my grow space. I think I'm going to veg them another week or two longer next round tho. I wouldve vegged these one longer but I was worried about the electric bill getting high since I was vegging them under my hps at 18/6 for 3 weeks. next round will veg longer under t5 at 24/0 or 20/4 to cut down on energy use.

I have removed some fan leaves but only the ones that are more than half yellow or if they look like a main base for mites. the super granddad had some monster fan leafs too.

cant wait to do a run of the grapefruit diesel indoors tho Mmmm! just wish my sweet tooth mother was looking better... :?

I hear ya on the electric bill man. I actually got a doctor to sign a medical form to get and extra baseline allowance and my bill is still running about 400 bucks over the norm. I am going to make pg&e come out and test my meter after the this flower. I think the T-5's actually are working very well for vegging. The plants are are very full and the stems are thick, so I am sold on the T-5's for veg.
 
i concur w/the t5 veg lighting, only way to go! looking amazing NB! really looking like a seo o green in there! i love your pruning skills, can't wait to see this pan out for you!
 
yea, T5 is a necessity & works for just about every veg stage.

I had 3 grapfruit diesel seedlings but 1 went male so I have 2 fems now and stoked to get some cuttings in a couple more weeks

Looking good B:mrgreen:


I prefer my 600 HPS from seed to finish. A little on the wasteful side for the first 2 weeks but there's nothing like these new electronic ballasts.


Almost done with the construction of my new room. I'll have dual 600's. The new light I just got has a switch on the side so you can use 360, 400, or 600 watts, and the super lumen setting also.


I'll be cracking beans in a couple more days so I'll keep you posted.
 
very nice grow. i have some blueberry (slow)
and a sour diesel clone comeing for my next cycle and can t wait.how many weeks of veg did you give yours?

haha youre the man NeL! I've never heard of anyone going seed to finish all with an hps! :clap: and those dimmable ballasts are pretty rad. you think you're going to gradually up the wattage as your plants progress?

but definitely post the link in here once you get your new set up going. you gonna do as many 1 gallon bags as you can again or new strategery for this one?

stoked :bigjoint:

&& to bodyshop:
thanks for checking out my grow. I ended up just tossing my blueberry mother because it was so damn slow. I know the buds are great but it definitely doesnt fit in my growing schedule. watch out for the grapefruit diesel I'm gonna be doing after this run tho :hump: :hump: :hump:

but this run I vegged for about 3 weeks after I rid them of mites when they were just clones
