CORRECTOMANDO!! but i'm also in a 1.2 metre square highly reflective 'not cheapo' tent , with good quality mylar, extremely efficient footprint even with a basic shade, plus i use PGR's so my light only needs to penetrate 10-14 inches max. 1000 watt watt would substantionally increase my yield however, would make buds entirely too large for my liking and don't like risking budrot for football sized nugs, imo 1000 would be overkill in a 1.2 metre tent with my setup, as i am vertically restricted with recirculating res.

Whats wrong with a cheap-o tent? Ebay $100 with shipping cant beat that.... lol Actually my tent is on its way out... rips here and there... so your tent is 3 x3 ft? 9 sq ft in the states had to do the math on that one... hmmm

Thanx man! much appreciated! when you put them 2 pics up together that really does look like an explosion of growth, ha, i read up on keeping ph at around 5.8 on your thread, made me really think, my last grow i tried to keep it at 5.5, but didn't show any bad signs, just not as fast growth..or bushy for that matter, i'm really excited to giver her a flush in the morning, cause that's usually when i see a huge growth spurt and some node stretching.

thanx again, hopeflly more perky pics tonight, if not, pics tomorrow, sounds like i'm talking bout tits, mmmmmm tits, mmmmm where's my lady, she said she's getting keen, she want to put buds all over her, so maybe i'll think of sumthin for next page ;)

So are you saying the bump to ph 5.8 has visibly improved your grow?

it's 1.2 metres squared ( 47 inches ) and 2 metres high....( 78,7 inches ) and the good quality tent does make a difference i believe, better port hole designs and better size overall, designed specifically for 600 watt HPS

most definitely, actually i just checked on her a minute a go, and she looked fine, but not good enough, so i gave her a day early flush, and gave her fresh nutes, without the XL, and an adding of 40ml of Dr. Repair, Ph is at 6.4 ish at the present, as i just flushed her, i will wait for her next feeding in a couple of hours, and as she's pumping through i dare say she'll change somewhat, i didnt want to add any ph adjusters yet as 6.4 is ok, after flush the waste was around 6.8 so, it seems to be fairly clean, just lacking a little, i did only go 3 quarter strength nutes, so I'm sure in the next couple of hours she'll go mental after her next feed, man soo easy to flush this way. pics in a couple of hours after she has a nice gargle on her fresh life supply

edit.. i'm starting to think even though this setup is hydroponics, it acts like a soil grow with the root system, so i think i may like it more inbetween ie (6 ish )

over n out erbivores :leaf:

ok, i most definately fixed my issues, after checking her at 4pm, she looked a little saggy, and not really full of life, so i gave her a full flush, cleaned the pump, and so forth, but this time i have not adjusted Ph yet, and she is still reading 6.38 - and thats after a good 2 feedings, and the leaves have shown some massive improvement, so i'm glad i flushed early, i think the XL acid breaks everything down rather quickly, so fresh nutrients was the go.....

here we go....:bigjoint:

Thanx fiwh!, i'm expecting BIG things this week, so as long as i stay on top of things.....she is on full strength nutes now, as i seen no nute burn with 3 quarter strength over the last week, even after i added my Ryzo.
so here i go....full strength nutes, i also picked the pot up 4 inches to give the plant a good blast of sun, and to get the new bushy growth happening a bit more, as she stretches over the next week i will strart to train her outwards, and put my first layer of netting in, although this plant seems to be EXTREMELY sturdy, and strong. very hard to bend branches, i actually have branches growing completely horizontally with the branches trying to reach for light. when i take my clones, they will get a huge growth spurt, as i take a good 4-5 nodes of the top of each branch up top..... you guys will freak! not many people have done this on this site, i gather it will cause quite a stir. and interest a few people i guarantee ......

thanx for reading guys...... i really hope this girl puts on a show for you guys, the dude who taught me said there is no quicker way to grow than this.. now that the roots have taken hold, and she is looking 100% healthy, should be good for sure

That should be interesting. That thing is growing like an alien.
'Why thankyou' i did name her shrek ;) hey that could work cause she sure will get you shrecked once i'm done with her :)

she is growing rather rapidly isn't she, and on one of these side shots you can already start to see a nice canopy forming, a few branches are chasing, the one that was highest yesterday is now second highest! i'm amazed actually how bushy this plant is growing, just incredible. ph was at 6.6 when i checked her, but she looked astonishing! (when i took these pics) so i added the slightest amount of PH down and got her to 6.3. I REALLY BELIEVE this ph level on this style medium seems to be working wonders, or that CYCO XL is some sort of secret additive, i mean it is $80-$90 a bottle for 100ml in a shop, can find it online for 60-70 buks. weird stuff i tell you, the tips on each branch are that closely spaced together that 3 of the nodes are nearly at the exact same height! soo many heads growing, but i still stand by my decision not to touch any leaves this grow unless i see dead or dying leaves...

howz she looking guys......

shes looking good im guessing when you make some babies you be taking from the main cola fimming or super cropping type of thing , you got me thinking although i already on a tight space like yours but i got 7 going on 2 jacks (from green house) 2 clones from a friend of hashplant and 3 bhutanese thimpu (from malberry) hopefully gh and malberry turn out fem if not i might do that with the hp to help make up the difference and i hear ya on the 1k in a small space but i dont use a shade or a cool tube and temps are high at the top but ok at the middle of my space (during winter) right now i think im around 5.7 with botanicare pro series hope they turn out similar to yours nice and fluffly.

i will be taking 3-4 maybe 5 nodes off each top depending on how much stretch i need for flowering, looking very promising :)
as for fluffy nugs! my indoor will be anything but. maybe you saw my outdoor harvest pics, same strain, thanx for your input man

long story short .... real short. in fact i dont wanna talk much about it except i got a new bong. $80 frosted pyrex. damn expensive, didnt come with a stem or anything. supplied my own stem and cone piece. oh it had a grommet. nice bong nyways nice and smooth, soooooo easy to pull all the smoke, very good design. but expensive for what the fucker is ey. but it is FROSTED!!! so i give it some extra points, $15 more than the clear. it felt much heavier, and thicker pyrex. i couldnt see myself breaking it easy. blah blah hippity blah blah.

enjoy my nice new bong pic !! bongsmilie
