600w Closet Grow: Phantom Cookies, Blue Dream, Island Sweet Skunk, & Pineapple Chunk

So I just put these plants on the 12/12 light schedule about 6 days ago. So far they all look great. They are all between 18"-24" tall. I did have another Phantom Cookie, but I had to cull it because it was a male. The Phantom Cookies are some big plants that really grow fast. I might have some height issues with her in the near future. All of the plants have started to throw out some white pistils. There isn't much else to comment on as of right now though. I will post some pics probably tomorrow. Hopefully things keep going smoothly like they have been. I haven't had any deficiencies so far with any of these strains. It has been an uneventful grow so far just the way that I like. I have the plants in 3 gallon pots with Miracle Grow soil. I usually use Fox Farms Ocean Forrest soil, but I opted for the cheap shit this time around. I have these plants under my new 600w light. I upgraded from a 400w cooltube to a 600w light and new hood. I can't remember the name of the hood though. I like it alot better than the cooltube though. The light footprint is spread out alot better than it did with the cooltube. I splurged on some Digilux bulbs too. Hopefully they will be worth the extra money that I spent on them.

Here are some pics that I just took. They all look healthy and are coming along nicely.

Looking good! Great strains too, I had some Sweet Island Skunk from the dispensary recently and it was one of the tastiest strains I've had...loved it!

I'm looking forward to watching these beauties mature

Great job there, Kentucky! They look really healthy. Are you planning on adding any nutes later?

Excellent Work Indeed

Looking Great

Thanx for the share, looking forward to the bud porn for sure.

Peace and Great Grows

That is good to here. I've always liked skunk strains. That is basically what I grew up on around where I lived. At least when I wasn't smoking some compressed bud. Lol!

Thanks bro! I have given them a couple small doses of Cal/Mag, but as you can see they are all completely healthy so far. I will keep watching them, and if I start to see some deficiencies I will definitely add some nutes. I have some Botanicare Pro Blend for flower on deck. I will give a couple small doses regardless of deficiencies starting around Day 30 of 12/12. This method has worked well for me in the past. I have burned plants up giving to much nutes, so I try to let the plant tell me that they need it.

Thanks bro! It shouldn't be to much longer, and I will definitely be posting some so stay tuned! I will post some pics of my outdoor grow too! I definitely have some bud porn for ya! We had a bad storm here last weekend that did a lot of damage to my big ass WWxBB that I have going. This plant is about 9' tall and about as big around. It is the biggest plant I have ever seen in person and that I have ever grown. You just can't grow them like that indoors. Lol! Anyways the trunk on this bitch split around 5 different spots causing about half of my plant to be laying on the ground. The good news was that none of the plant was wilted, so I knew that I could save most of it with some proper first aid. I didn't get to see the plant for a few days after the storm too. Anyways I got the duct tape out, along with a couple 2x2's and twine. I went to work with a friend's help and put Humpty Dumpty back together again. I can't wait to see how much this plant yield's. It is going to be a lot. The buds were massive already and there were a shit load of them. I honestly can't believe it! Plus they are already frosty as fuck, and they have this super sweet almost honey suckle type smell. It is a fairly strong smell too! I know I couldn't be happier. I have 6 other plant going as well. They consist of The White, Gigabud, Chocolope, Toxic Blue 33, Red Cherry Berry, and Black Russian. Some are a descent size while there are a couple of small one's. None of them are on the level of the WWxBB though. I forgot to add that the WWxBB is in the ground while all of the other's are in pots. Anyways they all have frosty buds with a wide range of different smells. It is going to be one hell of a harvest if they don't get snatched or killed by god! Lol!

Just got off of work, and I checked on my ladies. The Pineapple Chunk, Phantom Cookies, and Blue Dream have all started to show some trichs. Always a good sign imo!

Shits looking nice bro. I basically grow in a closet as well. In my garage with ac and lots of air movement.

Sub'd up bro stroll through sometime. About to start another thread myself. You have some nice strains your working with.

Thanks bro! Yeah they are all coming along nicely! No deficiencies or anything so far. All of them have little popcorn buds everywhere. None of them are stretching to much either. All of them except for the Island Sweet Skunk have a nice amount of trichomes on them already! Not a whole lot of smell though. I did get a new and bigger carbon filter than I have had previously, so that may be why I can't smell much! I'm just hoping for some good quality smoke! Hopefully my Blue Dream ends up similar to the one that my buddy grew out, because I absolutely loved that shit! The structure of the plant looks damn near identical, so I am thinking that HSO has a very stable strain here with their Blue Dream. Even if it is a knock off of the clone-only version. It is one of my favorite strains that has been grown from seeds that you can buy.

Today is Day 20 of 12/12 for my ladies, and they are doing beautifully! I have some really good sized plants that are just as healthy as can be. The Phantom Cookies seems to be the biggest of them all with the Blue Dream in a close second. I have grown the Pineapple Chunk out a couple of years ago, and I just loved it. So I figured I would give it another try. This one looks a tad bit different than the other one from what I can remember. It looks more sativa like. Thinner leaves, but it isn't a big stretcher like some of the other grow logs I have seen. I have heard a lot of bad shit about this strain, but I had great luck the last time I ran it. Hopefully I get lucky again. The Blue Dream is a nice and big plant. I just love how this strain grows! I can't emphasize that enough. It has been an easy plant to grow. It bushes out beautifully after being topped and put into flower. I think with some more room it could've gotten much bigger. The buds are already bigger around then all of the rest, and she has a nice amount of frost surrounding them. The Island Sweet Skunk is my least favorite so far. It doesn't have any trichs on her at all yet, but besides that she is good. It is still quite early to give up on her getting frosty, but I would say if nothing changes in the next 10 days then it isn't going to. I have always loved skunky pot, so I was expecting big things from this one. The damn seed costs $20 bucks making it on the more expensive side of how much I usually spend per seed. Anyways I will post some up to date pics sometime this weekend.

I just harvested and grow pineapple chunk. I pulled 4.73oz from 2 plants. awesome smoke, excellent high. no huge colas, medium sized for the most part. had 11 colas on one plant and 9 on the other. they respond well to supercropping, FIM'ing, and lollipopping. I ran mine for 9 weeks.

Apperantly I don't stop by the indoor section to often or ida said what's up by now! But I see what's up, down yonder lol! What's been goin on KY? That closets lookin pretty fat from where I'm sittin bro keep up the good work! U gotta post a pic of ur 9'er (and the splint job)!

I upgraded from 400 to 600 as well and FINALLY got around to orderin some beans. This heat has been keepin me from switchin to 12-12 but it looks like its gonna cool down enough to turn on the 600 and flip!

Anywho.. I'm tuned in, and +rep to ya! Keep it green!

They are still coming along nicely! I am starting to see some yellowing of the leaves on my Island Sweet Skunk and Blue Dream, so I hit them with a dose of Cal/Mag. Other than that everything is good! I did notice a dank smell when I stuck my head down underneath the canopy. I guess my new carbon filter, which is bigger than my old one, is working a lot better than my old one. I can't smell anything when I walk into my grow room now. I know it is still fairly early in flower, and the smell can really pick up between now and harvest time, so we shall see what happens. I will try to get some pics of my outdoor grow for those who are interested in seeing them. The past few times I have been over to my buddies house where they are at, I forgot to bring my camera. Anyways this will definitely be my best outdoor grow ever!

They are coming along nicely, and their smell is becoming more potent by the day. I just love it! They all are having some leaves yellowing on them, so I hit them with a dose of Cal/Mag and some veg nutes to give it some more nitrogen. They all have a nice amount of trichs on them, and they all have nice smells. So far they look like they will turn out to be some DANK! It is still kind of early though, and I know a lot can change between now and then. I feel confident that they are only going to get better.

It is lookin pretty fire man, how's the new 600 doin in comparison the the old 400?

My outdoor grow consists of a monster WWxBB. Then there is Gigabud, Chocolope, Black Russian, The White, Toxic Blue 33, and Red Cherry Berry! The WWxBB is just a fucking monster! It is at least 9' tall and probably bigger around. The colas on her are bigger around than my arms and longer in length! It is just beautiful! It looks even better in person! Here are some pics that I took:
