BCNL Producer Grow #2

I am not using the "Bloombox" I am using the "Producer". I have my mother plant and clones/cuttings in another box called "The Mothership". The Bloombox can get a bit hotter and doesn't have the same yields as the producer does.

The boxes are spendy, but top notch quality and the best thing is......they fucking work well.

Yeah, I've thought about the draw backs of getting a bloombox vs. a producer & mothership combo. The main reason I don't do that is because of space issues. (not to mention 18 plants + moms is more intimidating than 9 plants + mom.)... but now that I'm thinking about it, a producer and mothership just sounds much more sexy. I may have to rethink my growing area now...... curse you for tempting me!!! :cuss:

Looks good man you can tell where lighting intensity is greatest by plant growth? Can they fit one of those with a 1000w?

You can't tell by intensity, one of my smallest plants is directly under one of the 400 watters. 1000 watt would be over kill and temps would probably spike up really badly. No plant here is more than 14 inches away from the bulb, glass is about 3 inches away from the bulb.

Another week, another update, more pics!! This is the last week of fertilizer, next week or 2 will be for flushing then a dry and cure. Should be smoking good around thanksgiving time!! Turkey and weed are a sure way to a nap on the couch!

Ran 1200-1350 PPM here, ph was around5.8 most of the time. Highest recorded temp was 82F while the lowest was 65F, temps taken from top of canopy. I still say that 1200 PPM is too much for this particular genetics, although the colas are hard and very dense the leaves show some nute burn on the very tips aside from their yellowing color as flowering saps the plant of chlorophyll. Anyway I am always disappointed no matter what the results and I feel I will be this time also, I just feel either a better genetic mother or some other improvement will move me beyond the 3/4 gram/watt range. I guess I can't despair quite yet, I do not know the actual weight, so its all just conjecture anyway.


Pics!!

Yes thats one batch. I am hoping for a solid pound, but I expect to get less. I veg until they are 20-24" tall. I Have clones already rooted and waiting to go into the box right now, so I need to finish in 12 more days.

Thats sic man very nice and much respect to u for all the help in the past!
I cant see and sure that its in the thread just lazy lol, but how many pots do u have going and what size res?
Are u on a harvest rotation?My setup is very similar to urs and im trying to think it thru a lil more better this time before i end up with another jungle on my hands. Ive got 12 ready to go and many more to come but trying to figure out how to time my cuttings? To get a 2 week harvest?
