you'll like that doubledream
good strain, I still have mine, and that's sayin a lot, not only am I fickle but they genetics around here are topnotch.
in fact for indoors the doubledream is a superior strain to the bluedream.
but outside?
the bluedream OWNS.
quite possibly THE best outdoor strain ever
in my opinion.
Hey I never asked what you yield from your dd with 8 week veg. I'm at 3 and now I'm getting a 4x4 tent. But I don't what to veg for the rest of my life. I thinking I should take my plants and make 4-6 clones each and then let them veg for a week and flip. Not really sure. I haven't ordered a tent yet but will Friday. So I'll be at maybe 5 weeks by the time I get it.

8-10 plants?
in 8 square feet?
too crowded man, you will be transpiring a lot of water, and they'll be shading each other.
with three feet as the limiting vertical factor, logic would dictate that girth would be how you get yield, but that means more vege time.
give them at least a sq ft a piece, and that'll get you two colas each.
top the clone at 10 inches, train the growth to give you symmetry (off a clone it won't be naturally symmetrical), train to 2 or 4 colas.
I'm also thinking I should just veg to about 6 weeks and and take 2 clones from each plant and that would allow me to veg them for 6-7 weeks....just trying to figure this out thanks

I'm coming up on week 6 and I just transplanted from 1.5 gallon to I guess almost 5...I used a 3.5 gallon pot and added a 3 gallon bag. I was just using what I had around the house..I used kellogg's patio plus with perlite 3/1...I just got the tent 2 days ago. And it actually surprised me how good it is. Very thick zero light leaks and under $75 shipped. The frame isn't the best but at least met corners. The fabric is very think 600d20160921_184816.jpg 20160922_041807.jpg

I grew the regular Blue Dream in the same size tent. The first round I used 49 clones vegged 2 weeks after rooting. I got nearly a pound, but it was a nightmare to water and maintain. Now I have upgraded to a 9x9 grow room and 5x5 tent. I grow fewer plants with a slightly longer (3-4 week) veg time and it is of course, much easier to maintain. I think you are going to be very happy with the new tent and it should be fairly easy to produce a pound or more. I haven't grown the DD, but BD is nearly bullet proof and everyone loves it.

I went with the scrog style just to try to get the most out of this grow. Not sure what will happen if we go rec out here so I have to get as much as possible b4 the market goes to shit...I read in Colorado the street prices stayed ok for 5he first year or so cuz the shops were too high. Maybe I can unload a few pounds in that time.....so I'm flipping these on the 1st which would be a day or 2 shy of 6 weeks veg...right now I have the light at 300 watts and the tent is still hitting 90f...these pics are from the 22nd so week 5...I've got a bit 2-3 inches of grow since then20160922_194423.jpg 20160922_194455.jpg

Ok after 6 weeks of veg. I went ahead and flipped. The screen wasn't fully filled. But it being a blue dream cross I know it will fill out in a week or so. I flipped them yesterday and I see the growth is not slowing down...I think I will have to tuck the shoots every day. Bumped the lights up to 600...the temps are at 85f and by the morning I'm down to 80f...

I'll post some more pics when I can showing my fans. I have a box fan that rest on top of the screen and I have a small fan that blows at the bottom. At this point I'm really hoping for 3 zips per plant. This would be a considered a fail if I can hit an p with a 600 watt hps.

Im shot in for 16 zips...if each plant hit 2-3 zips each I 5hink I did good. For me I spent alot of time searching for a good strain. I wanted blue dream but I was told this strain is a bit better for indoor..and still have the bd smoke...



24 days into flower. Now I'm getting juiced. With still 6 weeks maybe these are doing great

...not sure if I should be worried about my humidity but I'm sitting in the 50s....adding some damp rid and a few boxes of baking soda...it don't snow out here so I don't know if I'm able to buy the main ingredient in damp rid. I'm looking into rock salt as well which are supposed to be the same I think

Hi , cough your grow and wanted to ask ' since I'm growing the same strain.
How long did the stretch go on for and would you say the more than doubled in size???
I think it doubled but not to sure since I'm running scrog. The net didn't fully fill out. I'm in week 6 of flower now. Have to post some updates. I'm having ph problems but can't afford to buy anything...plus they just passed prop64. Don't want to get to invested....but if you can check ph and they will be fine...I think I'm going to week 10 with these....haven't feed in 2 weeks

What kind of water are you using. Im using the same nutes as you, also ro water @ 2 ppm. I made my ph down from sulfuric acid 33% ( 14: 1 ) and distilled water, and it takes .4 ml to 1 gal to drop ph from 7 to 5.7 . I don't know how big your res is, but this works for me, and stays very consistent.
