yeah a hps may veg them better but he has a height restriction so to keep node spacing tight and the plants short and compact floros r the best choice.. so bullshit to u sir.. if he continues wit his hps veging at 23" away he will run into a ton of problems stretching, burnt plants and no longer a sog or scrog.... but hey thanks for playin now move along:roll:

Dude, take it easy. LOL. I have explained twice now that the 23" from the lamp was only temp, it was my way of hardening off the clones. I was lowing the lamp everyday. I'm now at 12" away.

These are direct quotes from Jeorge Cervanetes Grower's Bilble.

"Give new transplants filtered, less intense light for a couple days." pg.47

"Place new transplants on the perimeter of the HID garden or under a screen to subdue sunlight for a couple of days. Once transplants look strong, move them under full light." pg48

I don't have much of a perimeter in my garden, so my next option was to raise the lamp so that it wont be so intense, I have no choice then to put them directly under the lamp. Plus my clones are rooted already.

"Adding a touch more blue light helps prevent most plants from becoming leggy. The other enhanced performance HPS bulb is the Hortilux by Eye." pg.193

I bought the Horilux Enhanced Spectrum Super HPS to help with stretching.

Yea, I know it wasn't for me. I actually thought it was funny. I was just trying to diffuse the situation, you were both right. I can veg with HPS, but like you said, floros might be better for my situation, just don't have the space or funds for that at this time. I want this thread to be informative so that we can all learn from experienced growers. I am willing to take information given to me and apply it to my grow if it makes sense. Also, would like to provide pics and important details of the grow along the way so that someone interested in growing in a simalar way has something to read from start to end. I know there is a lot of documented grows, but one more will not hurt. So, can we play nice now. No more calling BS or calling checkmate please. Just want to pay it forward.

Hahaha no thats not my red purse hehe, its my girls. I used up my half of the closet for it. She also LOVES nugs and we don't really have the money to be buying it sooooooooo I told her what I was doing she said ok cool just leave me some space. It only ended up taking up about a 1/4 of the closet. She does cuss me when she can't turn the light on during the day to get dressed hahaha oh well she won't be complaining in about 30 days hahaha. My last setup was in a dresser so it took up WAY more space than the tent so she was pretty happy with the new grow tent.

The plants have all turned a light green almost yellowish color and the top leaves are perky and pointing up. Does that mean they are growing roots or they need to be feed?

Have you been feeding them? Your doing kush right? My kush plant is a nutrient hog and the leaves would turn lime green when she is needing more N. Give her a half dose feeding or full dose whatever your at and see how she does.

Thanks for the advise. It was right on the money. I feed them 50% strength nutes and they seem to respond right way. Next feeding I will up the strength to about 3/4. Yea, they turned lime green and looked sad, but perked up within an hour. Haven't posted any updates yet, not much going on yet.

When doing a SCROG when do you flip to 12/12. I have read some say as soon as they hit the net, some say 50% net filled and others say 80% filled. I know a lot as to do with the strain but a rough number would help. Please only advise if you have done a SCROG. Thanks

Something to keep the thread alive until we start the bud porn. A review I found through google on Chem Dawg strain.

OG Kush & Sour Diesel are both direct descendents to Chemdawg & taste similar. Sativa indica mix with a flowering time of 9.5-10.5 weeks. Average yields of the best chem funk, the potency is Unreal!


Name: Chem Dawg
Grade: A
Type: Sativa/Indica Hybrid
Price: $50/8th

Looks: Intermixed darker and mid-lighter green shading. Smaller dense buds covered in golden fuzzies and scattered with short burnt orange hairs.
Under the Microscope this glowed almost completely golden yellow and just seemed to radiate light.
Smell: Fairly piney, the smell was not too strong but not too subtle.
Taste: To be perfectly honest, I really was not focusing on the taste with this one. The actual experience of smoking itself perked up different senses as it went along and the taste didn’t stand out to me as comment worthy. Nothing special.
Buzz Type: Great for me-time, laid back social settings, and just mellowing out at home with a pinch of trippy, a dollop of that indica body high (not quite couch lock but it’s not far off), and a refreshing dash of energy and imagination.
Buzz Length: Long. Smoked an average size bowl and the high was still lingering after 2 hours.
Overall: A very enjoyable high, a fun romp with quality hybrid qualities that give you the goods from both the sativa and the indica sides. I had a gram that I forgot at a friend’s for 2 weeks, then I got it back and had a few other amazing strains, so this got lost in the shuffle.
Buzz Report: After 1 hit I feel an instantaneous though low strength body high and my head’s already a little more laid back, ready to fall into a mellow groove. After 3 hits the buzz grips your mind and body as it passes through, leaving you with something to remember it by.
