Dlopez..im going to try and talk you into putting down that orca film ahead of schedule and take before and after pics so some folks can see what happens at least in your veg room.
Dont make me double dog dare you or call you lazy.

Heres the thing.. i never count from the day i flip.. i count 7 days after the flip..
That when they realize that the hours have changed and begin to flower.. how are u counting your cycles...

Here is a blue cheese that flowers in 47 days.. this perfect ripness for me..
I could have taken her at 45.. but i got higg ( afro man )




Love those shots, what did you use to take them?
Is this barneys farm or big Buddha blue cheese?

I got 3 diff phenos.. there all chunky ass fuck.. The least chunky is so fucking smelly.
Im bout 7-10 days out its all up to the trichs.. im sure youll find sime good phenos.. they respond great to crimpping, topping and lst.
Ace of Spades loves to grow, and i took her up to 1300 ppms in week 5.. like a boss..

You post it from a url is he way i get my pics to be big, if i upload them from my fules on the comp they load as normal attachments, pretty sure lopez uses phitobucket. i just link a url from my threads if i neex an old pic, not super computer savvy so im sure there is another way, just only way i know how. hope this helps.
Lookin nice in there d, my space bombs are just starting to form their flower clusters, gonna pick up a CO2 tank this weekend and start easing em into a heavy ppm like your doing. my vote for a nname is nacho cheese, whos cheese is it? nacho cheese! corney i know lol but with the who part of it made me hink.

dr mc cheesy is my name vote lol. Sounds pretty epic to me! blue cheese is probably one of my favorite strains, I love the melt into the couch moments. never tried dr who, but if your growing it, I am sure its worth trying. If you looking for volunteers, pick me pick me lol.

Keep em green

Here are some thoughts of mine Dlopez.im going to bounce them off of you to see what you think.
Ive been thinking about the MH bulbs and adding them to the flower side.Im going to do it But i dont want to do all of the bulbs with MH.This is my concern and i think its legit,I will without a doubt lose some size and development to the bud(my strains are small producers)Matter of fact others who have grown the querkle normally cant produce a ounce out of it in a five gallon container.I commonly get 2 ounces out of it in a 2 gallon.E&G.Ive thought about adding UVb lights to the grow to increase resin production.Upon reading a article it said UVb must be added all the way through veg and bloom in order to increase potency.(The article looked legit and had a case study and testing to go with it)Ive thought about adding a zoo bulb or two but really do not want to introduce more power usage.Ive got a line on a MH bulb that produces huge out put in the blue purple and green spectrums.
I can add the MH along with the HPS one out of three .The plants get rotated and as part of maintenance once a week.Or add in the MH at around day 28 and take out the HPS.Ive got a two lamp area that i am going to be using for nothing but experiments on lighting,nutes and new strains.
Here is my thought right now at least while my mind is racing on ripper.Man this shit is really hazy..its fooken great.I like up highs.
Im going to run With the HPS until day 35 At that point with the timing of these strains it will only have about one week left in the development stage,This is when they will put on the last of their size and start packing in resin the most.at that point put in MH and see what happens.It should make the buds harder and increase some resin output Without losing internodal spacing,bud size or the compactness of the plant.

Max, I know this is gonna seem like I am pushing lights on you and I am sure you are fine with your setup but since you are talking bout adding MH to your bud room to get added UVb you should check out the light I am using it is and EFDL, aka a fluorescent on steroids. It has a lil uvb and a pretty tailor made spectrum for plants, and it takes less btu's of A/C. Other bonus is the thing has a decade warranty, no joke. I am going to have this thing till I go to have kids, maybe pass it on to them lol jk. Oh and their customer service is the best I have experienced, quick and prompt. Hope you think about it, they are not cheap but once you factor in bulb swaps, ballasts, and a hood (know you make yours but just saying), and A/C cost over the life of this lamp think you might like it.
They say it is comparable to a 1000, but a 600 is more accurate with my experience. Sorry if ya think I am spamming lopez, saw max's post and figured he might like to check it out,

Ive got some T5 set ups.Every article i read says you want the UVb to be in the 10 nanometer range or green spectrum if possible.I would think the more you can get the better of you are as far as resin production.Ive only made a few hoods so far with other designs on the way.Mostly i am experimenting with ORCA to good effect and outstanding results.

Ok ive got a side at 32 days old. I tried out some new light speed bulbs 600s because they have more blue and green spectrum in it to see what it would do.
Well i found out what it will do.The internodal spacing is further apart and bud development is weaker at the same time.The pistols have not developed as long as they do under the more orange spectrum HPS.(sunleaves ,eye, ushio)round day 46 they finish filling in and start gaining density at that time until finish ten days latter.The good news is there seems to be a little more resin development at this stage and it appears we are going to have a little tighter nugs.Other than those i think over all im going to lose some weight.
I realize this is just one brand of bulb,so i still may try and introduce MHs into the test run coming up this week end,Im thinking right now the EYE that i am using in veg has more orange spectrum to it that the other MH i have.I think using the EYE MH would give me a better mixture between orange and blue spectrums.
I think using the HPS during the beginning of the grow would get the initial development started and introduce the MH at day 35, I think this will be a decent combo to start experimenting with at least as a starting point.
Day 10;Bud development set and starts outstanding for day 10..crowned down and filling in already under 2 600 watt sunleave bulbs and one lumatec bulb.
Leaves are curling and twisting some from the heat of the nutes.No burned tips and other than that looking and filling in outstanding.
To all you new folks growing..Dont feel to bad when something goes wrong.If you are not fooking something up you are not doing it right or trying hard enough.
Learn from it just like life and go on.
