Week 22 Update
I thought I'd start this update out a little different than normal and give a walk-through of my grow room since I have not yet done it. Though people might want to see how a made good use of this unique layout. To start with, I have a split level house. You walk in the front door and there is a short set of stairs going up and a short set going down. If you walk down the stairs and turn to the left, you'll see 3 doors in a U shape. Looking at the pic above, the door on the right is my utility room, strait in front goes out to the garage, and the door on the left is a small closet under the stairs going up. This closet is where all of my cable connections are and I have my modem and router set up in there giving my whole house hard-lined internet(great for xbox live and streaming HD video to all of the TVs). But in this closet, there is a small opening leading to a small crawlspace under the lower stairs. In here is where the magic happens. Before we go in, here's an overlay of the floor plan.
As you enter the room you come into the Mother Area for WW3 and Blue Kush as well as where my nutrients are and I do all of my mixing here. I just installed this RO system in hopes of making sure the same problems I had with my water will not happen again. As you look through to the seedlings in front of you you'll see a couple of branches poking out on the left. These are the WW1&2 mothers and my blue kush seed I got from a bag of dank grown from the blue kush mother and clones I now have. The best part about this area is that it is about 1.5feet taller than the rest of the grow area, which gives the mothers that much more to grow.
Now, on the other side of the wall is where my humidity dome and seedlings grow which is under the stairs themselves. Next to that in the same area is the veg tub for my clones. If you are sitting in front of the clone tub and look 90deg. to the right, you will see my flower room. Obviously everyone's favorite place. And now time for the real update We are now 22 weeks into this grow. The WW1&2 clones are now 10 weeks into flowering. The Blue Mystic, Mango, and Mazar seedlings are growing like crazy. They all have a decent amount or roots growing and are keeping on a fast pace despite the fact that they are recovering from a nutrient burn that was caused by possibly still contaminated water or me adding fulvic acid to my nutrient solution off of a recommendation from the guy at the grow store. what an ass, or he thought I was growing something else. I stopped adding it and changed the tubs and buckets and the burn seemed to stop. Didn't have the water fixed till today so I'm leaning more towards the folvic acid. All of the Blue kush clones have rooted and been transplanted into hydrotron. 1 imparticular is doing better than the others. The piss has rooted as well but only has 1 root visable and it shows(worst looking 1 in the tub). The WW3 mother is still growing nuts. Color is good all over and all but the very bottom leaves are perky. The rootball is huge and takes up the entire bucket. Anxious to grow more of this, thinking about moving my mothers and turning my whole current area into a flowering room and seeing what LED's and a couple of UVB bulbs could do since I already know how my Son Agro did. The blue Kush that I originally picked as the mother is actually doing the best out of all of them, so no need to rearrange clones. Now for the goods. The WW1&2 clones are now 10 weeks into flowering. I am hoping to harvest next weekend. Almost all of the trichomes are cloudy, a few clear, and no amber. The buds are getting even denser and frosty. Starting to look real good. At the moment, WW2 has a much better smell to me and has also suffer less from the nutrient burn, but still hasn't put on the weight that WW1 has. But it also seems to be a week or 2 behind WW1 as well, so we'll have to see. The Piss clone has clearly show it is a female and pistil grow is further than I expected at this amount of time(2 weeks I think). The Blue Kush bag seed hasn't shown any signs of sex but has grown much larger than the piss. But enough talking, for everyone's viewing pleasure, Integra's Widow Girls raw and uncut. Inappropriate for viewers under the age of 18! And lets not forget the guard dogs. Pure bred Dobermans, 1 male 1 female but they're more of lap dogs than guard dogs.

Looks real nice, this is making me want to go the hydro route. Ok a couple of questions. How do you change the water in those tubs? What do you do for the smell and do your dogs have puppy sex?

Dogs are fixed, and so far they dont bang. Changing the tubs is work. Me and a buddy tg team it. I hold up the lid which lifts the screen until the buds touch the light. He then slides the tub out and slides a new one in makig sure to get the air stones in. Then I just fill with food I premixed. As far as smell goes, an Ionic breeze in the roon and an ozone Jr outside and it seems to do the job. All depends on your strain. I'll be putting it to the test with the next set, because that Blue Kush smells super strong. Had a bag in the house and the woman thought it was my room.

I wonder if its possible to build a reservoir that sits along side for an easier change. I have not seen a side by side reservoir picture yet.

That's like ideal... It seems as if the ceiling is pretty low in that crawl space? Also, I wish I had a set of dobermans. Always wanted some but the current yard is just too small.

I have a couple of ideas on making it easier when this set finished.. 1st is just adding a drain valve to the existing tubs and using an inline pump to drain and then just fill with gallons of food. and the other is trying to make a side resivor that works like the dog water bowls with the tank on top that always fill themselves. but I have a feeling that will be a lot of expierimenting to get that one right. and the Ceiling is only 3ft4in. tall. So yeah, not a lot of head room. Otherwise looking to build a recycling dwc setup with a main side resivor. but only time and money will tell.

Sorry Fella's, Cant finish the journal. Unable to upload pics again. Right now, the WW1&2 are 11 weeks into flowering. I just switched to strait water for flushing, and will be harvesting on thursday. I will post weight and smoke report a little later.

a lot of hard work and some(not a ton) of money and you'd be suprised what you can setup. Good luck with your first grow.

Alright. Harvest is dry. Took 7 days at 70F with 40%rh. All are jaring now. I know the yield would have been better if I didnt have all the nutrient problems in the middle of flowering. But i still hold my head high with a respectable first grow.
