Blue dream flowering time? 2000k watt hps, scrog.

hello all, I have 4 plants (blue dream Williams cheese hybrid.) after a 10 week veg I put them outside April 28th and they started flowering. Ended up deciding on moving So I moved them indoors to make a quicker harvest. Apparently they are on day 47. When should I expect to chop? I know the trichs tell all. But some say 8 weeks and some say 12 weeks.

A little detail
Ffof soil
Foxfarms grow big and tiger bloom
300 watt full spectrum led
2 1000 watt hps fixtures.


In one photo the scrog net is off because I was rotating plants. Put it back shortly after



Day 44



Today, day 47

Take her 9 atleast. Reason being those blue dreams like to finish late. Cheese being in there could help finish a little early I say 9 weeks atleast tho

Thanks man!

Np bro can't wait to watch it I'll help u decide when it's time I only crop at 9 weeks for everything cuz I'm a cash cropper

Yep. Take to 63 MINIMUM. I Like 70+ for mine. Nice crop bro. Blue Dream (the real Dream) is such a nice all around plant. There is a reason why its so popular. It might be played out on the west coast but here in the midwest its growing strong. Its got to be in the top 5 most popular strains. The taste smell and potency is up to par for such a large yielding cultivar. With double ended hps lamps or well thought out and hung single ended lamps....hitting good harvest return weight numbers is very easy with a mono crop of good ole Blue Dream. Love that cut.

Looks so tasty

I only grew out 5 blue dreams but the answer from 8-12 seems about correct. I had 2 that grew short and bushy and were done around 9wks and 3 tall and bushy. The longest and best of the 5 was about 12 wks. I think 82 days for the longest and also best of them. I didn't keep it and have wished since that I did.

Your plants look nice. Are they from seed or a cutting? Just asking because they look the same. Mine definitely looked different than one another. At least size wise.

Seed

Ive never found or seen from other growers.. a knockoff Blue Dream from seed that looked anything like the Santa Cruz cut. The knockoff i have is good though. Iam almost positive sure its an HSO Blue Dream. Much more indica in her than the SC Blue Dream which I also have. Leaves are nothing alike. Long super dense somesomewhat skinnier but still big colas. Smell and taste is different. The knockoff branches out real quick at the initial flip. Then grows very column like. Real Dream is just a very different plant to me. Big clubfoot lunker colas that take 75 days. You can totally see the old school Silver Haze chunkiness in her. Its the most Sativa ish strain i have out of the nine or so that are in my current lineup. Shes replaced my old timey Sour Og for the big yield Sativa dominant hog. But iam still keeping Sour Og. Shes been so damn good to me for the last 7 years. I plan on running one whole section of my Gavita room (2 of the 8 6/750 flex) with nothing but Santa Cruz Dream and Sour Og. My 2 fat lady freak shows. I will crush it. Yes indeedy. Then of course i got my White Nightmare from the Sin City....that one is a jaw dropper too. She has the dream in her blood too. Shes a freak all on her own. Just another one that brings it all to the table. Better taste and smell than Dream...knockoff or the sc clone.

My in house dream genetics are 70-75 days flower. Buds are massive.

hey all....wanna just be completely sure....trichs and only trichs will tell all right? Im running b.d. as well, one hydro and some soils...start of week 7... Bitch is getting super chunky...but i cant see it being done in 8 days...have some sputniks a week behind it because they are supposed to be a 7 weeker? Both of them are getting fat and have all white trichs...passed b.d.s trichs of clear to white...chop em all together in week 9?

i like to take it to ten weeks personally...

In all my homework all i read is that is the critical "get fat time" right? Thstd her in far right. Actually 1.5 week old pic...i put her center stage under wider spread hood,,, running ac so i tried glass off...running well....steady 74 degrees.

Nice grow...

do the plants in the corners not stretch a lot?? they are really far from your light??

Actually all shorties are on 3 ft. Tables...big plants in corners are 5 gal. Dwc's standing on upside down 5 gals...they got big.... Had to rearrange... Running ten plant 30 day perpetual.

Your "stadium" setup is ideal for one or two light gardens. You want the tallies on the edge like that. Sort of a bowl or concave. Max use and efficient if you have taller strains or staggered setups. I do this with my t5 lamps in veg. Because i have different gear at different times. In flower i try to get it even as possible at the canopy but sometimes yiu just cant. Taller sativa blue dream or haze type gear or lanky indica og kush based stuff is ideal like that.

I appreciate your reply....just started running this setup....will have to take an updated pic...but i was just reading on here if u download pics from an android or iphone it leaves a footprint?? Wow! So now im not feeling so confidant about sharing... Never thought of it as "stadium style"... But perfect description....was running 3 tents in room....now just using 1 to veg. In . just built a shed to accomodate eager intent...haha....

Have all plants staggered on a bench, or table which is foot higher.or floor if its big...had to put sputnik dwc on floor...furthest big plant is 28 in. Away.
