Ya I'm grateful to live in a state that realizes there are much worse things in this country than smoking a joint, like j-walking or not paying the parking meter. God bless California!

Stress and insomnia. With my school and work schedule my mind cant relax at night and smoking always helped so I figured why not just make it legal. Plus my doctor tried to give me some gnarly pills which seemed like an extreme solution to a minor problem.

That's cool. The sad thing is, if that was the case over here you'd be stuck with the gnarly pills lol, shit sucks. Is that why you stick with predominantly indica strains? I love indicas late at night but cannot stand smoking them during the day, just that cba to move feeling gets too much haha.

That's almost exactly the setup I've got (except for the bulb extraction fan).
The temps in my room are also almost like yours.
Do you ventilate them during the day or use the heat from the lights to keep the temperatures up nicely?
Do your plants handle the cold at night all right?
One last question
The water that you feed them does it get cold or do you leave it in the room to warm up ?
I'm a bit scared to freeze the roots especially in the beginning because the water from the tap is freezing here.
Cheers man nice grow

Its so ridiculous, Law enforcement and politicians make marijuana out to be this horrific "gateway" drug thats ruining our youth while they persistantly tell me I need to be on knowingly addictive anti-anxiety pills I dont want? I started smoking pot in highschool and my socical anxiety went away, my grades went from C's to straight A's and its led me to persue a PH. D in economics (theory just makes sense when youre baked lol), I guess its a gateway drug to success? Haha but ya I prefer to grow indica dominant strains to push all of the bull shit out of my ears before I pass out. I also like hybrids that are primarily indica but have that sativa headlock so I can fall asleep to some crazy dreams. Ambian, klonopin, xanax and valium?... no thanks... marijuana is my anti-drug!

Good to have a fellow tent grower! I run my lights at night and vent cool air into the tent too keep my bulbs between 76-84F but it definitely drops well below 70, nearly 63F, when the lights are off. Once the temp dips down a bit the girls arent typically affected too much (the soil actually retains a lot of heat keeping your roots warm) but I try to maintain a maximum 20 degree shift. I definitely feed them warm water, especially when the whether is cold. A good trick I use (if feasable) is to fill some gallon jugs up with filtered water and leave them sealed in the tent with your lights. After about 30 min itll be warm enough to water, definitely dont water with freezing cold water as it can put your roots on lockdown. Whats your grow room specs? Any pics?That's almost exactly the setup I've got (except for the bulb extraction fan).

Yeah man I don't have a camera at the moment but I'll try and upload some pics as soon as they germinate.
That's what I tought of about the water. I'll make sure to keep a couple of buckets in the room.
GL with your grow man I'm subscribed
Also one more question...
How often do you feed them nutrients more or less ?

Id love to grow with smart pots they're just a little pricy (although I might try them on my next grow as I'll have the extra cash). This is actually my 6th grow I've been a part of and my second personal grow so I'm still a noob somewhat lol. I just harvested also and I was also a little dissapointed with the yield, quality was out of this world, but I left for chrismas and new years and my friend let the temp drop to the high 60's for a good week right at the end if flowering. I'll definitely check out your last grow I love seeing other 600w set ups. Thanks for the post!

Yup that's the plan, the older leaves are the only ones really affected as the new growth is all vibrant and healthy but I think GDB is a finicky strain. I'll have more pics in a few minutes, just waiting for the camera to charge!Very cool

Glad you're subbed! As far as nutrients go it's definitely up to the strain. My cheese plants last grow were taking a full dose of nutes as transplanted clones without any problems and I bumped them up to double doses when they were a few weeks old to their benefit. My GDB on the other hand barely handled a quarter dose so I'm holding off for a few more days. I typically feed the plants, depending if they can handle it, every other watering which has always worked well for me in the past.Yeah man I don't have a camera at the moment but I'll try and upload some pics as soon as they germinate.

Sorry to bother but what does GBD mean?
Otherwise you water them with nutes one on and then normal water is that it??
Sorry man but you are dealing with a noob here lol.
I'm doing seeding 3 of cream caramel and 3 of ice cool. I'm not even sure they are good breeds but I suppose better than nothing to get my hands dirty.
I really wich you good luck man.
Is this your first grow?
cheers

No worries man im always down to answer a few questions! GDB is short for granddaddy blueberry, im just lazy and down want to write it out every time. And ya, water with nutes every other watering (mine just got their first nutes in a while today, hopefully they can handle it!) This is my sixth grow actually, but my second personal grow. I havent heard much about cream caramel but I know ice is a really good strain, super resinous and bright. Are you growing for the first time?

Sorry for the lack of updates, I lost my camera charger so im using my phone for now. They were switched to 12/12 tonight and are looking real healthy. Each plant has about 6 individual colas which are only a few inches long right now but should double or triple in size over the next two weeks. Im excited to see how the canopy will look once they start to stretch considering I only LSTed them once and allowed them to grow straight up. I guess this isnt really a sea of green but rather a lawn of green I guess. The last picture is this panorama app ive got which takes some sorta cool pics but just a note, the plants are reverse of what they have been in the past week as I rotate them every 7 days. Enjoy!

yeah man just growing for the first time.
I've succesfully seeded 6 out of 6 seeds (3 caramel and 3 ice) and put them in some rockwool yesterday so I'm quite proud of that lol.
Two have just come out this morning
Here are some pics of my setup.
Damn man your plants look sweet.
