For those who care to see what you can pull out of a 2 x 4 … my two ladies (pictured above) came down this past weekend and as you can see, their remnants are resting comfortably in their jars.

Red Diesel ...

I do a final weigh following the month long cure - 26 more days. So close and yet so far ...

Wow, you really know your stuff! I’m so impressed. You cover all the angles. I started using a new line of nutrients and I’m getting nutrient burn. I flushed her out but it’s still on the rise so I have a new ph pen coming in the mail tomorrow. I previously always used Flora NOVA Bloom and never had any problems at all and that nutrient has ph buffers. I know it’s not my water because I’m using distilled. I wanted to try a new line of nutrients because I didn’t feel I was getting enough flavor with Flora Nova bloom but maybe I should just go back after this grow. I don’t need this aggravation.

Thanks again Dr.

I've had my buddies help me sample my fruit and they say that they like the taste of the final product. You can try those FF products at 1 tsp / gallon and see if that improves flavor and eliminates the nute burn.

Flavor is all about healthy plants all the way to completion and then how you dry
Low and slow like good BBQ

I forgot about this thread, my 2 x 4 is nearing chop. Looks like you did really well @StareCase, good job. I will say the problem I found with packing a little tent is humidity. There's not enough room for equipment, so I've been forced to control humidity with a 440cfm fan. The last 10 days or so the friggin tent is sucked in constantly because I can't get the humidity down efficiently. When the lights are on I crack the zipper and that helps, not much I can do at lights out though. It's been a lot of maintenance and I doubt I'll do a big plant in a small space again. But my stash will get replenished, lol.

Put a dimmer on that light and run it at 300W. It will be even more efficient and you won't be wasting it on tent walls.

Thanks for the mansplanation

You're welcome!

I run 3 - 5 gal soils that get to be 33-38” inches tall. They will net about 75-80 grams on average per plant. With some being as high as 113 grams. All with less than 310 watts of LED from 2015. With new tech you should be able to crush my numbers

Just harvested 12oz from a 2x2x5.5 tent 4 plants with 285w of QB260 light. Also managed a 9.7g ball of dry ice hash as a bonus with the trim. You can easily hit a lb in a 2x4 area with the right light.

My guess 6.8 ounces

That was a good guess Suds ... today was Finished Weight Day so I can give the accurate final score:

Red Diesel - 216.3 g = 7.73 oz.


Blue Cheese - 195.1 g = 6.97 oz.


Combined with the 14.7 g. of rather good lower LARF bits, I pulled 426.1 g (nearly 1 lb.) out of one 2 x 4 x 5 tent with Viparspectra DS600 "blurples".

Now what do you folks think I should DO with all this stuff?

Looks killer, Starecase!

Good job man! I would start by burning one, lol. Plenty they're for edibles, concentrates, etc. Enjoy

Thanks blokes! A few friends have questioned why my drying/curing takes 5 weeks. The RIU community knows why.

Burned a couple of big bowls of the Blue Cheese - very nice! When I scissored that apart, it did smell like Parmesan ("Stinky Feet" cheese as my daughter once called it.). Considering that the Cheese is supposed to be an Indica dominant strain (Blueberry), I didn't get couch lock at all.

Plenty there ...

With even more to follow. The 2 x 4 is once again filled with little off-white crowns (nearing the end of flower stretch) and the clones are reaching for the light. In 10 weeks, the next batch will be ready. Our circle of life ...

I'll be making a bunch of infused coconut oil. That concoction makes some bitchin' Betty Crocker brownies.
