hm, well dunno if you can count simply on lamp watts. there were fans 20W, there were additionally 2 cfl, which prob had a purpose of consume electricity rather than provide light. Also I was using CMH with HPS ballast. That one is a nice lamp. Totally love it. Not only the room looks properly lit, not that dark yellow with stripes in pics, but also plant seems to be more happy getting wider color spectrum under it. So you see there's a lot to take into consideration. Anyway I got some real nice quality zamal and that alone was worth waiting 17weeks.. 
next grow will be going on two 18liters buckets. preparing already even if I'll start growing after some weeks still nice to think of the infrastructure instead of running to the store and buying things I don't need
here's my new pots

WoW this sounds great simisimis! Lol, guys sorry for going off-topic but this sounds interesting I think, a few pages back I shared that one of my plants is almost 170 cm high, yesterday I checked and it is high now about 2 meters :X. Damn sativas lol, this shit is taller than me. 
I'm really going to use your technique simisimis, I don't want plants over 180 cm high ... lol

lol the only way I could get 2 meters in my room if I would put that horizontally lol.. yeah.. going 12/12 from seed with topping and bending them around the cage did the trick for me. Actually even more than I wanted. Cause I got it under 1.5'. With medium in total it was around 2.5'.. I still had a spare foot to go..WoW this sounds great simisimis!

Will have to check on your grow man, interested how you managed to cope with 2 meter plant

When I harvested zamal, I flooded her for last 4 preharvest days to increase fermentation process so the curring would go faster and after that I wanted to try to reveg one branch of zamal. But mold that appeared due to flood, lack of oxygen in soaked soil and busy times I had to put some effort in saving the plant, looks like I failed to reveg her.
Well, no biggie. On my next grow I decided to get some old school strain - Kali mist from serious seeds. Tall and lanky and with a long flowering period. This was a first strain I wanted to order, but they were selling it only in packs of 6, and I am not very keen on paying 80eu for it. But now I found some seller that sells per seed, and 15eu I'd say is perfect for me And since I have managed to grow zamal, I'm pretty positive I could do this one as well Another 18 weeks I guess, but.. I have like 200g of smoking material which will entertain me for way more than that.
That said. Here's my new plan.
Growing medium
2x 18 liters square pots, painted with microkote container coating. (Previous grows were on a 12L and 22L rounded pots.) Also with added cage and bamboo sticks at the corner for later support. Lifted from trays so once it the water runs off, it does not get soaked in.
Soil
2:1 ratio of Biobizz All-mix(20% sphagnum peat moss, 35% garden peat, 10% high quality worm manure, 30% perlite and 5% Pre-Mix) and clay balls(hydroton). Adding more clay balls at the bottom and on top. A purpose is to make it very easy draining.
Seeds
FS C99 and SS Kali Mist.
Feeding
Will be high N food all the way through with increased calmag from 4th week into flowering and potassium silicate(dynagro protekt alternative). Probably will be finishing my Biobizz biogreen, Aptus calmag-plus and Potsil. But I god some salts I really want to experiment, so if MrEDuck will give me a kick, I might try to make my own fert out of 4 salts I ordered. This time I will be concentrating on the roots, so they'd have moisture and oxygen. Will be using some hydroperoxide. Watering with 60F temp water. And most importantly - will be leeching it every few weeks. No more salt build up!
Breeding
This is something new to me and I can't wait to try it out. Will be making some fem seeds out of those strains.. Got already Sodium thiosulphate, still need to get silver nitrate for STS, but I already have a seller that is going to send me silver nitrate once he will receive it from his suppliers. If all goes well and my painbrush will do the trick well, I might not need to buy seeds for a long time Getting 20 seeds is my goal.
Plan
First start with C99 and veg her for about 4 weeks. If all goes well at week 3 C99 will be topped for 4 colas. At the same time will drop Kali Mist. After 7-10days all goes into flowering. Will double harvest Cindie at day 49 and 60 and will keep Kali running until she gets where she has to get.
Not planning to have temp problems anymore since it's fall already and temps now will be at 70-78. Having to warm up a place is easier than to cool it down.
Well for me this is going to be interesting, hopefully for you guys as well.
It's a real pain to think that one person less will be watching my grow but some cultures believe that death is a best thing that could happen to us in our existence. So let the peace be with you.
Thanks for all you gave me and.. See you in another life brother..

I will be missing you simisimis, I hope you decide to make a journal for your next grow as well. I had a lot of fun reading through your previous journals and will definitely enjoy to hear more stories.
Ohh and just noticed the breeding part, I also made a few dozens of feminized seeds for me, but using the old fashion way with plants stressed till they show hermaphrodite signs. I'm yet just a poor teen, lol a funny fact, for this grow of mine I spend like 25 $ from the beginning. The expectation is to receive about 250 grams of medium quality weed. I guess the investment is worth it.
But I'm a very lucky boy actually ... from a total of 8 seeds, 5 sprouted and 4 was female. And my mother stressed out one of the little little ladies well little for that time, now they are a mature wifes lol, 2 meters monsters. xD

Woo whooo!
Just placed an order for the Kali Mist. Next week expecting to receive silver nitrate, potassium nitrate, alfalfa meal and seeds. I am so fucking tired of not growing.. My morning routine is incomplete..
Part of a description of Kali Mist that it has some pain killing properties easing women Prehistoric Monster Syndrom which I could really apply on my hot tempered pms driven wife and also get myself a break from back trauma which I got 10 years ago. I got used to casual pain already but sometimes after having some sports or more intensive weekend I'm on the irritating pain for 2-3weeks.
I really can't wait to try to grow it. But there's something I'm really afraid of. On description I see that if produces not that many leaves and airy buds. With my 150W CMH I'm afraid that buds might not develop that good.
However temps are dropping outside and I might be abble to support plant with more cfl than I was able in summer.

I was googling a lot when I wanted to pick a seed for my first grow. Main specs were uplifting, lmao'ing, clear headed buzz. A lot of people were voting for it, but it was too pricey for me to buy 6 seeds when I only needed one.

Yea, going to be great to have that cool air back. Though, where I'm at, we shot up close to the 90's this week, after a nice cool 70F week. But, it's coming. Working on moving some of my shit so I can get my box next to a window and take advantage of it.
You going to pop the kali mist when it gets here or..?

hell yeah! im going to top, lst the hell out of kali. same as i did with zamaldelica. and all with 12/12 from seed.
so, on friday i placed an order of Kali, saturday it was already in my mailbox.. what a service
also ordered this:

looks like some balls are going to trip this fall.
also something happened. I went to a friend and his tourist friends left him some weed leftovers.
he asked me to check on it cause it was very strange. buds were looking black. they had a lot of untrimmed leaves and you were barely able to see trichs on it. also it had no smell.
what kind of things they sell to tourists in coffeeshops. they knew that they are not going to come back anyway. but black nugs is something i've never seen or heard about it. google gave me black indica, but when i smoked it it was more sativa hihg. maybe mold, but it did not look like one.
BUT, when i was checking that weed, i saw two seeds. one was a bit cracked, another looking good but green in color and i've read that green means imature. so i dropped them in a water to see if they'll sprout. after 12 hours, the cracked one was showing tap root already... wow that's a fastest thing sprouted for me so far. if they are going to make it, they will be replacing my window tomatoes in the kitchen hehe. but will be more of a decoration rather than actual grow.

thanks for the warning!
thanks for the warning!
a medium dose is about 2,5 gr dried, for your first time yea thats a good dose to start, shrooms are also disgusting,make em powder and try to make a chocolate cube with em .Start in ben mari with the chocolate and then add the powder.You don't want high heat cause it kills the substance,hope it helped..i did only truffles so far and those were amazing. except for one thing. they are fkin disgusting. i get goose skin only by thinking about them. something do not click between us. cause im the only one from my friends who gets that. been reading people advices to eat 2g of dried shrooms. will see, i'm a careful user

brilliant! omg cant wait to try it out. chocolate is a great idea. i wasn't using it cause seller told to avoid eating sugar unless ur tripping too hard.. so i was eating it with yoghurt.. but if u do it, then i believe it works.
one friend said to me that he also hated the taste of truffles and he doesn't have that feeling with shrooms.. it's still disgusting, at least body does not deny it. will have tro try for myself i guess.
guys do you have any estimate on how much can i take of non dry shrooms?
cause my friend is flying over in 3weeks and if i'll harvest it in 18 days., it will have too little time to dry.
