Thanks guys, you know qroox with the Sog you can put them as close as 4" apart and just pack that small tent..
mine is small only 18"x 30" I just used a Rubbermaid tote. It's my old DIY clonner actually but since it wasn't in use I decided why not try and flower in it.

So you'd suggest a maximum of 8 ? It would be DECENT :D .I also think how am i going to water them...That's a problem as well.Ideas ?

Yea man, but that's awesome you can say you did it all the way thru.. Sure it took lots of time and electricity, but now you have tons of jolly green beens that are all yours...!


And thanks bout the frost... I just started the bud blaster water tonight so now I want some size. More frost will be good too.:eyesmoke:


Also here goes a top shot of the Blue Dream Sog somewhere in flower.:confused:

And also here's one of my Fire Og Kush still just veggn out and getting wider...she's maybe like three foot at her widest right now. I want double that for flower..
Thats it bro, Im stoked with how it turned out, not dissapointed one bit :-D
Wow man, that Blue Dream is gunna be a monster :)
And the Fire Og looks unreal too, if she packs on some weight she'll be huge too!!

You could make 2 dwc units man...both with 4 in each. If you had an outlet on each system you could drain them out and refill to flush and add more nutes :)
Either that or a small 8 plant flood and drain using channels, with 4 on each side. You'd have to have pretty similar strains though cos if you have too many different ones, it would be hard to fix the one with the deficiency...

I am* currently in soil...I dont wanna mix things up too much..and i'm thinking the cost of it..Damn :D
It's like jumping from a world i don't know,to another which i also don't know.So i think i should focus soil first,even with less plants

Lol yeah i can understand that dude! You could set up a little watering system on a timer that waters for a minute or 2...

Hmmm that doesn't sound that bad.Altought don't you think that i should water with plenty of run off to eliminate eny dry spots and remove excess salts when needed ? I was thinking ,lifting each plant and getting it somewhere else for a good watering.

Yeah man you can just set the timer for a minute extra and it will run off. Just keep the pots in trays so any runoff will get collected and not go everywhere. Set up the watering system and do a couple of test runs to work out how long it needs to be set for. A 500lph water pump will pump out about 250mL (or maybe 500mL, cant remember sorry!) per pot over 1 minute if that helps. I had one setup while i went away and it came on every 2 days, worked a treat :)

Also when you want to flush just fill the res with plain water, but only enough for one watering :)

What's going on guys..
Just heard you talking bout different systems and stuff. And qroox there are many of folks that do sog with soil in party cups.. It works cool bro and you can have good perpetual.. Or if you like larger most people just do a perpetual with one gallon pots..
I'm currious to see what you do next with all these different ideas going thru your head...
Just have fun with it man.. And if your not ready for hydro keeping it simple is the way to go cause it sure can get overwhelming at times. And like Mo said if you can set up a drip system and automate as much as possible, it can get real easy.! Just don't ever take that automation for granted cause sure as shit something will fail..

And Mo, I'm totally excited about your next harvest too, I know how much your looking forward to a proper grow.
its gonna be sweet..!

Gotta learn my own way i guess..!! Thanks for the helpful thoughts.I should do good :D.I think my harvest should be in the next 14 days..it's 54 day today..!! I was thinking to dry out a cola and see how it tastes.Well..i think i should wait a week to do that.

Good stuff dude, sounds good :)

I upload mine to imageshack and then use the forum link from there. Now that the US have been using data from places like imageshack im pretty sure its not safe to do that anymore as you risk them giving your IP details to the feds. Others on here may have other ways man. I know Flowa uploads his to thcfarmer before linking them here...

No sir, I was not so lucky as you. Two seperate grows both complete and total death.. It sucked.! But, that's when I was still growing outdoor so the year as a whole was not lost.. I used to be able to go away for weeks at a time without worry, and now I'm scared to leave them for 1 day.. Ugg! I'll be over my fears soon I hope cause I sure do want to travel.

And yo qroox, delayed gratification man. But if you must cut something take a small one.
what are these new seeds your crackn open?
