Ok I have the frame built, but I see that I shoulda bought extra boards to use every 2 feet to tack the plastic to. Being the cheap ass poor guy I am I opted not to get the extra boards. I have no car now till 4pm and have to wait till then to drive out and get em. I want to get a clone or 3 from that dispensary as well and they will be outta the ones I want when I have the car!!! Sux!!

Well at least the frame is really sturdy

S.S I hate finding out I bought something I already have!!

Hey sunnyboy, good to hear about the go ahead to expand. I use two 1 meter squared tents (3' 4" x 3' 4" x 78"). I have a 600 in each. I did not buy them at the same time and my second tent is more recent. Depending on the type of growing you want to do, I would say other than doing large single run crops, I would recommend two tents. So far I've been growing perpetual by the seat of my pants and I like growing that way but I'd also like to be able to do full tent runs, and scrogs and sogs too. This gives me that flexibility. It also allows me to run the two lights on opposite shifts so your electricity draw is even, as well as lower temps not having two running at the same time. Both my tents are budget end with the newer one being somewhat better but still there are some light leaks in the stitching, and on the older one there's small holes forming where the door/flap creases all the time when opening, and when it was new, it was opened a lot. The light leaks may be what is causing some of the slight hermying that's been going on lately in my garden, but it could also be genetic too so I'm not getting all riled about it. My tents are in a room that get's utilized for other things throughout the day so the light is there but I'll be solving that when I hang a drape track around it and hang these heavy drapes, problem solved. Not sure where your thinking of putting yours so hey, if money's not too much an issue then maybe go with the higher end tents. Heat can be an issue with tents so I highly recommend access to fresh air. And for exhaust I'd go nothing less than a 6" fan per tent, or what I did was 1- 8" fan drawing from each tent through 2- 6" filters.

Many ways you can go but that's my experience, so far.

Cheers.

Transplant 1 - this plant is only 8 inches tall... with 9-11 point leaves... and not much other growth. My buddy really did a number on this plant before I got it.

Transplant 2 - this plant doesnt stand more than 2 inches from the top of the soil... count the fan leaves... its crazy.

12 straight hours of trimming... Postman will get a nice nosefull in the morning no doubt.
I just want to roll in it, I cant get enough of the fresh Fruity smell after harvest. Got a nice marble sized ball of finger hash too, very sticky, how do I go about smoking it? dry it out and just use it like hash?
Sorry for the lack of phots im fucked. Im thinking its around 20 zips when its dry... 9 plants.

Let the hash ball dry out then either chuck it in a grinder or squash it between your fingers and it should crumble

Or pinch off a squib while it's fresh and flatten it out into a button and lay it over a bowl of herb (and I'm sure some out there would add some kief sprinklage to it, too).
Use low heat by whisking the flame over it like you were trying to smoke some herb with BHO on it.

Oh, and nice harvest!
Going to smell even better as it dries & cures, too.
Love that smell!

what kind of tents do you guys use, if any at all?
I have a piece of crap tent from htg. I'm not so worried about light leaks, I only use it to veg and speaking of vegging, in my opinion and my opinion only, it's a waste to veg with a six hundred. I have a four tube four foot h/o t-5 and it's all I use to veg. It keep the plants extremely compact until you throw them into flower. I have a five week old, tomorrow, hericules. She is about a foot tall, she's in a three gallon smart pot and has ten or eleven internodes on her. The side branching is also excellent so why pay for a six hundred to veg. As noted by others heat is an issue in a tent. If money is not an issue, I would look into a secret jardin and if you can afford two tents, I would get a tall one to flower and a shorter, longer one to veg.

I have seen these in person and they are a solid tent and I particularly like the way they have 'socks' for your venting to fit into.

I love my tent... it is the 3x3x8 version of this. The vent socks are great... I have 6 inch fans shoved in them... I have a porthos plant shoved in one on the inside as well. was thinking about taking the one that hangs from the top, and using it as a pot for an upside down MJ plant...

Damn bro that really sucks... What happened??

I would dry it and smoke it, but thats just me, lol.

We have a "Private Reserve" club down these ways, and to be a "member" there is some godawful shit that we have smoked...

Im sure those early buds are better than anything we ever smoked in the SDPR club, lol. Right BKB?
What happened.... Hmm ill say its a dumb move on my part. Just watered these girls yesterday i went to move her for a pic and SNAP. The whole branch cracked from the main stem and was hanging on by 1 piece of skin. I tried to tie it and tape it but she just kept slumping back down. Im sad but i guess ill clone her and run her again since her yield will be GREATLY affected losing her main bud branch
Accidents happen, HS just have it as a day time smoke.
Yea BUT WHY ME lol actually its not that bad this is the first time this has happened to me. Next time im gonna Bamboo this bitch up like bondage lol.
