Hi, plants look great . In your last post w/ pics, i was just wondering how far along into flower is the plant in the first pic? Tks

i probably looked at your thread 1000 times . Doing great! Got tons of info from here

Thanks for the kind words!! That first plant is a tangerine dream at almost 4 weeks of flowering.... almost a third of the way!! stop by anytime!! and have some rep!

Beautiful photoshoot, those were each and all amazing.
I can't wait to see my lady start throwing out pistils.
Late veg and early flower and my favorite growth stages.

Bro stoney, check this out.
If you get a clone today of that TD, and make sure you take good care of it, I'll start crunching numbers and come up with a plan for her long flower time.
I'll help you get through it, the smoke is going to be worth it in the end.

Actually I found the solution, just reserve a corner of your flowerbox, to always be a TD.
That way the 12 week flower time won't disturb your space limits.
Eh?

I hear ya man, i really like the early stages of flowering also!! and alright man, I'll try the TD... I'll find a way to fit one more plant in there and then it won't disturb the rest of the plants. I just got two more lights today so i will have enough light to squeeze one more in... I'm really pushing it though!!! I have this much time invested into this breed, i want something out of it!!!

I have some lost space in one of the corners from the intake pipes. I'll rearrange some things and maybe modify the setup to accommodate one more container. it might need to be a custom container but that would be ok to dedicate it to the TD's.

I am very jelous of that stuff!!! looks like a big time saver!!! I need to mix up some soil tomorrow and transplant one of my veg girls into an air-crate. $36 is about average around here for a good quality bag of soil. I try to keep it under 10 a bag.... but if i don't need to buy anyting else it would be worth it. I get raped on the perlite around here!!!

Those are all great lookin pics!!!! thanks for posting them!!!

I got my new UFO panels in the mail today!!!! the glass is in them. one is broken though, only half the panel lights up and the fan makes noise. I'll give mike a call tomorrow and leave a message. I'm still gonna install the one tomorrow. i figure one is better than none!!

Thanks again for the cool pics!!

Yes!!
I'm so glad you decided to make a shrine of Tangerine Dream!
You could always grow it at the pipe area, and have the plant bend around the pipe.
Unless it interferes with the flowerpot area.

ya i would call Mike maybe he will have the brand new ones in by then with the glass out? Karma seems to work in your favor.lol

hahaha i knew you would be happy about that! the pipes are low on the container side but i didn't even add the second one yet so i will strategically place that one... maybe i could modify a milk crate to fit just in that spot. i was planning on a 5 or 6 hour garden day tomorrow, so i will have plenty of time to figure it out!!

I did some more work on the cabinet today, i installed a second intake tube to allow more fresh air in. I also repositioned all the plants and what do ya know, i now have room for one more... well two more if i mount my fan on the wall!!!

The big news is I got my new lights in the mail!!!! one was damaged but after another very pleasant phone call with the owner of GLH it will be replaced right away. now that is customer care!!!!!!!!!!!! top notch support!!! answered my call right away and solved my issue in five minutes. then we continues to talk some more where he once again taught me even more about these lights and how they differ.

here are some photos of what i did and the new lights. they are more orange looking now... really cool!!!

Sounds like a plan, I'll expect to see much craftsmanship tomorrow.
Who dies tonight Stoney?

Hey concord, was that Maple Leaf Indica?
If so, were the leaves rediculously large compared to other Afghanica dominant phenos?
And was it overall worth the grow?

Sorry, no chop down tonight. it might be a few weeks till i can cut one down. they seem to have lost a bunch of time when they were sick. I just gave them all a nice light feeding of Jack's 20-20-20. I am going to move that fan so i can fit one more plant in. not sure which one will go in yet. this first pic is of the overstuffed veg box. the two family shots are interesting. one is taken with the flash and one without these GLH lights are now so bright it over takes the flash of the camera!!! and the rest are random bud porn!! STAY FROSTY!!!!
vegging....


Flowering.....
Flash ON.



Flash OFF.



Porn.............

Thanks HC!!! I just put a C4 x CB into flower today ( my first one to flower). I hope it's a female!!! lights out is at 6am!! i really hope my power outage didn't screw things up.. time will tell!

tonight I'm gonna watch AA, it looks like a good one.... kinda lost intrest in wilfred.

can't wait to see some more of those monster buds you have!!

I really like the smartcrates, how many could you fit in there max?
You know, you could always designate each spot to a different strain, and have chopdowns be according to the random chance of an individual being finished.

Would be less of a routine and more of an endless garden.
Haha.

ya you have a different wavelength? you have the new new lights maybe?

I could fit a total of nine crates in that space. I would like to get some smaller ones, maybe more smaller plants would help me keep the big variety. the designated spots sound interesting, not sure if i could get into a rutt like that... once i found that perfect nine strains it would be an awesome setup.

yea, the new UFO's are the 2011 2nd generation series. and the 180's are 2011 1st generation series. so the new ones have the orange diodes. Mike told me if he liked my thread and it was getting popularity that he would trade out the two new UFO's for the even newer ones that he doesn't have yet with the glass out and his clever new way of getting the spectrum's mixed better. I didn't ask him when he was getting them in, i was just humbled at the fact that he sounded interested in my thread. He asked me to send him a link and he said he would get a replacement ufo out to me right away. That is the awesome GLH service all the others talk about!!!

ya i told him about you and ur grow. i will also be getting the new lights and i am pretty stoked about these ones, the glass out is the for sure way to go, i always took my glass out and love what it did, but these ones are gonna have nice blend and should be a good and friendly light that can be hung closer. i am pretty stoked about these ones.

aw thanks man, I appreciate the shout out!

I have not seen any negative signs at all at this height so I'm gonna lower them a tiny bit at a time till i am comfortable with them. I am very happy with the UFO's at first sight, they will be a great fit for me!!!

I just put a plant into flowering today, and she is at 38" away. and i put her right under the new UFO to!!

The closest plant is at 24" inches away right now. I went with your advice, I'm starting them far away and letting them choose how much light they need. keeping in mind I have five different strains in flowering right now. they all want something different so it's tough for me to keep an even canopy.
