Re: 12 Crystal (NL x WW), 3 Purple Haze - MH + CFL's... I Have Returned! [Re: Inverted]

It's a little early for a picture update, as I like to leave at least a week between updates, but I have continued to improve the new box, with silicone caulking and another coat of white sealant as stated above.
The transplants went great and they should love their new space. Some are in 1 gallon and others in 2 gallons. I'm testing what is the optimum amount of rootspace, while still maintaining floorspace.
Well here's where it's at!
I'm getting excited! They stink so much, i'm not concerned about concealing it though.

Yeah that's because I had them in such small containers and wasn't feeding them enough I guess. I was watering everyday there for a while. Now I can relax and let them grow a bit.

So did you stick with the same soil mix for the transplant?
Throw in that 150w yet?
Your grow's about to take off bro... I forgot how similar our setup is, so I'm gettin excited to see these ladies start fillin out.

Yeah I did. They didn't show any signs of stress.
No unfortunately I haven't, it's supposed to be here any time now...
I really hope it takes off, I need enough to supply me until next harvest. I always run out beforehand.
They are very similar,that's why we should watch and help each other out if possible.
I'll take pictures later when the entire setup is complete.

That would be awesome! You are definitely going to get a sample of this run, I think you'll like it. Shit smells diesel like!
Well my 150w HPS came in today! I'm so stoked, it's a great fit for my space and combined with 200w of Red CFL lighting I think I'll be set for this grow until I get another 150 to set right next to it. I absolutely LOVE how small and efficient this setup is! And it really doesn't put off much heat, seems about the same as my fluorescent bulbs! (15" Long x 7" Wide, and ONLY 4" Tall!)
So stoked to see what kind of progress this thing kicks out, as i'm 13 days into flowering and buds are rapidly forming!
Pics to follow the setting up of everything! New box will be put into use tonight. I'm just too happy not to post about it! I've been using inferior lighting for years. Time to step it up! It was holding back my skills.

Me too man, me too! I really think that CFL's were just holding my skills and knowledge back so much. Not saying you can't get good results with it, but if you want to pull decent yields of dense nuggets without having a 20 bulb CFL setup and a possible burnt down house; then you just have to man up and go HID. I can already tell it's gonna be epic, even at this wattage.
The thing is, I'm going to be able to keep the 150 real close, because with a fan across the canopy I was keeping my MH 2-4 inches away from the bulb in the summer. I think this will be an advantage to using a 250 in my space because I'll get better penetration when I can physically keep it very close to the majority of the growth.
I can't wait to see the difference after 1 week, especially since i'm in flowering and they are already growing super fast under fluoros!

If you are patient you will see them in a little bit. I've got some work to do before I can mess around with photos and whatnot!
The haze are embarrassingly stretched out. It had to be a strain deal. They will be bent down tonight, as it would be a wast to have all that vertical space wasted on 10 nodes (20+ inches tall) whereas the Chrystal are still only 12" and lower! I love Indicas...
Nevertheless you will enjoy the progress that has happened, although I've burnt a few leaves being a high ass and not adjusting every day.
Pics soon!

Yeah I know I suck, I didn't take pictures because the plants were in their dark cycle. I also didn't do any work because i've been stoned as fuck and can't seem to stop chatting with all of my friends. So the work is going to have to be done in the morning and I don't have a choice on this matter!

Update! I don't remember but I think it's day 14 flowering.
I don't know why but my fucking annoying stretchy ass Haze ladies are flowering faster than the Indica Dom. plants!? Don't get that at all but here is some pics.
That fucking box is way too heavy to be moving again, not to mention up the stairs... fuck that.
CFL's will be added tonight or tomorrow when i'm not lazy. I feel like that was plenty of work for Saturday morning.

sometimes the sativa characteristics are only in the leaves/node length and you can get dense/fast flowering buds.

oh hmmm.....2 weeks into flowering might be a bit late to set up a scrog.
I've never tried it, could work I suppose but I always set up the screen with about a week left in veg so they have time to adjust to it and fill it in a bit

yeah, I figured as much but a lot of people seem to be pushing for it.
I'll go with my gut, and you, and just leave em be, and tie down the haze, cuz they are fucking everything up with this 1 inch per day bullshit! I don't care if it's already flowering, hopefully it will slow them down so the Chrystal can catch up.
