Wv - got that light as a part of a bubbleponics system from ebay. The guy I got that one from doesn't have his ebay store any more, but you can still find them on ebay. It's a 150 watt HPS.

Hey Arthor, thanks for your interest! We currently have two clones in flower, about 3 wks from harvest. They went into flower right after they rooted and are now about 10" tall, with nice fat nugs growing! Worked out better than we thought it would! So, first experiment a success! Here's a couple of pics; of the clones and the larger clone we vegged for about 1 1/2 months. Enjoy!

Ya man those look better than the ones we popped into flower after rooting. Keep up the good work and let us know what the end result weighs on those jail-bait virgins :)

lol...4 sure; the color on them is getting darker every day, so I will do another photo shoot today when they wake up! So far expecting at least a 1/4 oz from each, and hopefully 2+ oz's from the big mama.....very exciting! We'll keep you all posted!

Okay, took pics, but then forgot to post them! Here are a few of the big mama...so far, we have harvested the top 3 nugs. The rest are almost ready and MUCH more developed now that the 3 chunky ones from the top have been removed. I'll take some pics of the plant today and post them later. Oh yeah, the bong in the third pic is a 30" RooR, so that gives an idea of the size of those top nugs!

Next, the clones! These only took about 2 1/2 months from cutting to harvest, and yielded just over 16gs total. Awesome smoke, good turn around, thinking of making this the official way of doing things! Would get a pretty good harvest if we had 12-16 of these to harvest every month!

We still have a few plants in soil getting ready to be done in the next month or so. I'll post some updated pics of them later, too. Here is how things looked about a week ago...

So, exciting times are upon us! Unfortunately, most of our clones suffered from extreme temp and humidity changes, and most of them didn't make it. But we are looking into buying some clones, and just got an AK48 clone from a friend, so we will have some more getting ready to go shortly. I'll keep ya posted!

Oh yeah, here's the AK48 clone we just put into flower a few days ago. More pics to come with the others later on. She's a dainty little thing, but grows like crazy! Never tried this strain before, but hear good things about it. Hopefully, the clones we took from her will survive!

By the way....anyone have any advice on getting clones to survive in a relatively dry, cold climate? We have a humidity dome and heat mat but still haven't cloned enough to know the right way to do it....so any cloning advice is welcomed! For now we're germinating some more Blue Dream Bubba and Chem D seeds, but would love to get the cloning down so we can use them as mothers. Thanks for reading!!

Okay, here's a quick pic of the inside of the tent; five plants in about a month into flower and the AK clone that just went in a few days ago....

Holy crap it has been a long time since we updated are little perpep here so I am going to post up some pic of the stuff we got going on right now.
We have plants in various stages of flower time still but run various strains so nothing finishes together but we have recently broke are dry spell. We also upgraded our 3x3 tent to a 5x5 so the ladies are loving all the space!

So I thought I would show some the the other plants that are in the 4 week and below mark. This is a Chem D x Bubba Bag seed creation. It was vegged for 2+ months! It has been LST'd in various areas and in different ways such as tie downs and branch bends as you can see in the 4th picture. Since there is at least 2 weeks of veg growth after starting the flower cycle I topped it right before entering flower.

hahaha yeah we never meant for it to get that big. We did not have the room in the old flower tent so it sat in veg for a while. Should have a hefty end yield tho;-) Thanks for stopping by.

Due to some request...hehehe..... I am going to post some pictures of our UK Cheese plants we have going right know. The first pictures are of our 2 mother Cheeses. The next couple of pictures are of a UK Cheese clone in flower at about 3-1\2 weeks. This is our first time growing the Cheese in any form but it has gained a spot in our top favorites! So this will not be the last Cheese strain we will grow. Meanwhile enjoy the pics!
Here are the vegging mothers and various clones.

Nice! How does that cheese smell? I've heard good things, and am growing it out for the first time now, def going to get cuttings before I flip her to 12/12. Is that mom in just a regular DWC system in the rubbermaid?

The Cheese we have smells SO GOOD! I am not sure who the original breeder is on account of the clones being marked "UK CHEESE". Not sure where they came from, but the smell is unique to anything we have grown before. It is one of our favorites now due to it's amazing growth and aroma. Definitely take some clones cause the Cheese is Bomb Bud! Both of the mothers are in basic dwc systems. They are Serilite storage totes so basically the same thing as the Rubbermaid ones.
The mother will be moved into 5 gallon buckets soon tho. We find that trying to keep multiple large plants in the same container is not a efficient way of storing mother plants in our situation. The roots tangle together and make it difficult to turn the plants for full light exposure. Soon all totes will be used for clone growth and flowering the clones.

looking good greather420. your mom's are gorgeous
Thanks lovebud! We were very skeptical about these clones being marked "UK Cheese" because we live in a mountain town and I am not saying there are no good genetics around here, but it just seems like we keep getting lucky and getting all of these elusive "clone only" strains.
Out of the 2 mothers 1 will be trimmed cloned and put into flower this week and the other will be kept until a suitable replacement clone can be found.
Stayed tuned for more updated and pictures!
