Club 600

Can I be in the 600 club if I run 4 600s? I still prefer 600s to 1000s or 400s, so I think I should be allowed. It's like I'm a one man collective of 600 watt growers. Also are CFLs and such included, or is this the '600 watts of lighting' club. Cuz I'm trying to be in the '600 watt bulb club', which is implied by you guyses signature images. Respeck.

Hmm im gonna grow in a 1.2x1.2x2m tent. Damn, if i could grow 20 plants What size pots would you recommend? I've chosen 10 fem seeds so far. What strain you think would be best for 12/12 since i'll be having an extra 10 plants =D

If you are going with just the 10, I would try to give them a little bit of veg time to be honest (just to max things out a bit). If going with an extra 10, (i.e 20 total) I would probably go for 4 litre (1 gallon pots) per plant.

whodat nice garden man. that ak is going to finish up a tower of dank for sure. have you run the purps for long? been looking at that one myself for a while. what's she taste like?

guys, i just got 6 fem chronic seeds.
they all cracked in paper towels.
put them in rockwool cubes.
and only 2 came up.
they werent in deep, werent too wet and werent too dry.
the rest rotted. FAIL!!! my friend had the exact same problem, he only got 3 from 7.

should they not be put in rockwool or what? any advice for seeds in rockwool?

DST said:

great stuff stelthy, I use to love my 400w, even though it pumps out less than half the lumens, it still gets those nugs crystally and fat. Look forward to seeing the 600 Stelth cab in effect....

Peace bru,

DST

Cheers DST can't wait to start with the 600.. I do like the 400 but the 600's a beast especially in a cab designed for just 2 DWC Ladies below I've added a pic of the buds curing (Day 1) I dunno how much dry weight to expect..although I do know I'll loose 75% of the wet weight still....only time will tell.



I'll be back in a few months hopefully with a succesfull 600 Cab and some beautiful girls, Peace - STELTHY

No pics can DST see ....

When I did seeds in rockwool I just soaked the rockwool for about a minute. Picked it out and rang it out slightly then put the dry seed in the hole about halfway down. Then I sorta covered up the seeds moving rockwool over it. I got 14 from 15 to sprout like that. Oh and I tried to pH the water to around 5.5 (or whatever the rockwool packaging said), I only used the drops for the ph so it wasn't very exact. Sorry to hear about only getting a couple.

I have about 20 in a tent the same size as you in 1/2gal bags going 12/12 from seed for breeding and it's fine. There were 19 at first but pulled some males and then later replaced them with other plants and I think there's 20 now. I have 18 in hydro under another 600, 15 in 1/2gal bags under another and there will soon be another 19 in hydro under the other 600 I think. Just letting the clones veg for a week to try and regain a little health after being left in the cloner too long with plain water so they're really yellow and look like they got eaten up by spider mites even though I know they didn't. There's 18 or 19 under a 1K light on a mover too but they all got vegged for a bit so they're pretty big and are crammed in approximately a 4x6 space.

You'll be fine and should have room to run the 1gal pots like DST said but the pots will all be touching each other. My bags are sitting in the same drip trays I use for the 1gal pots and the drip trays are all touching each other with what's in there now.

Welcome to the 600!

I know I need to get some updated pics and will soon but I've just become so busy lately that I never think to take any when I'm over there.

Have a good day everyone!

I used the exact same process with rockwool, LOL. Even the drops...

Seemed to work good for me as well but I don't think I got quite as good of results as you. I just figured I got a couple bad seeds and moved on.

Still busy trimming Jig? Saving the pics for the 420 contest are we?

SNARL, SLOBBER,......big lick, the DOG's a big friendly old beast, lol


Peace, DST

I hate rockwool for any use, lol. That stuff always causes me problems.

Wow, everyone's busy as bees around here planting and such.

Billco man, what do you use to cut that tree down??

A hacksaw did the trick for the trunk and a majority of the bottom branches, she was real woody till about 3/4 of the way up, then turned soft. The story on the plant is a funny/common one. I had a bag of schwag brick mexi with a ton of seeds. Being that it was on of my first plants ever, I grew her out anyway. Ended up getting just over a P by the time she was done, and she had a nice high to her has well, very uplifting. I still have some of those mexi seeds, but don't have the heart to plant anymore of them since the genetics I have now are 10x better than what I had before.

That Jackhammer is looking stunning, wish I could be there when you sparked up a J of that

All of the recent seeds I've popped have been in rapid rooters and they work really well, simple too. I think I used 18 or so of them so far and will most likely continue to use them for seeds but will keep using the rockwool cubes for the clones because they will stand on their own and the rooters won't.

I tried the rockwool macro plugs with the most recent clones and will not be using them again since they have to be in a seed tray and don't touch the bottom so you have to water the clones to keep the rockwool moist. It's been a pain in the ass. I usually just pour a little water into the bottom of the tray once a week and the rockwool cubes will soak some of it up leaving a little in the bottom of the troughs in the tray to keep the RH up. Back to the cubes for me clones, hehe.

Hey peeps!!!.....havent been on for a while as im back in veg with my cfls lol..........anyways ive just come hold of some Biobizz topmax and some atami bloom stimulator i was wondering if any 1 has used these products?? and would i be ok usin with my PK13/14? and in coco?
Any tips on the 2 would be great also.....oh yeah are they the same as canna boost, cos im lookin to replace it and was thiunkin would any of them 2 be any good too?
Cheers

Thought I'd share some more root porn, Northern skunk, about a weeks worth of growth.

sorry lad, can't help you there, never had experience with them. I would imagine any nute that you use in soil can be used in coco though.

I guess my girls are gonna wait for fall to flower? I put them outside. They were getting 19 hrs a day for just over 2 mos. I figured they would switch to flowering with the reduced light hours outside. I guess there is still too long of a day.
Also I am worried about the dark hours not being fully dark. I can go out there and see after my eyes adjust. I suppose plants outdoors are used to the moon light etc....though?

GHB uses atami bloom bastic i think or something like that for his boost in coco im pretty sure, also with pk 13/14.

Don't be here for a few days and it takes a lot of reading to catch up. Welcome to all the new folks, we are not usually as argumentative as we seem to have been a couple of days ago. I'll give you this guys, and gal?, it was entertaining to read, to me, but then I 'know' most of you guys for a while. We don't tolerate what we perceive to be negativity from first time posters on this thread very well. Hope all is healed with everyone now.

Doobie, is that you in that pic with the printer? Don't you look all 'normal'? Thankfully I don't have to worry about drug tests where I work and they all know I'm a stoner. Hell, they've all smoked some of what I've grown. I'm lucky enough to work with a good group of guys, we even golf together. Sorry shankerman, why not take a side trip to Bethpage Black while you are there?

So it took a lot of reading so I'll comment on things I remember, which isn't much. DST, the final weight on that hashish? And whoever with the white widow, another strain that benefits greatly from a long cure. Swamp, thing? Nice, very nice outdoor, what part of the swamp you located? I'm about sixty miles south of The Swamp.

My girls are looking fine. Seed fairy, the blackjack is superb looking, super frosty and she has weeks to go and my hericules from sannie is right there with the blackjack. I've been using humboldt's snow storm ultra this grow, so far I will say these plants do seem to be creating a more oily resin. At first touch it almost seems slick and then when you rub your fingers together all the aroma and stickiness comes forth. It's almost time to start with gravity for the girls. Saturday ends weeks six of 12/12.

I have two buds left to my name, heads down in a moment of silence. OK, moment over, casey jones take me away.

I put some of those JDB Romulan (Romulan Joe's), some Herijuana, Some of my Afghan KushXRaspberry Cough and one (?) Cheeseberry Haze into flower yesterday to determine sex of them all except the CBH which is a fem seed. They're very small and young but I need them that way in order to have room for them all and I'm not doing any training on them to see how they grow naturally. The NYPD and Papaya seem to grow like they've been topped except they still have the main stalk too and the bud structure of the NYPD is great. The Papaya is average but it should smell really good later on and be a nice smoke so I'm not going to complain about it. I've got a NYPD that was spluffed by a male NYPD in flower, another NYPD that I painted one bud on with pollen from a Papaya and I'm going to do the exact opposite with two Papaya females tonight so I should have lots of seeds of each of the two strains in 8 weeks or so along with a few seeds of the cross going both ways.

I didn't have the best germ rate with the JDB (4 out of 7 so far )but the others have been a 100% success. I'm a little excited about the Romulan because there is some romulan in the clubs around here but it's not that great according to the owner of one club who's a friend of mine. He thinks this will blow that romulan away so it'll be interesting to see.

EDIT: I'll go snap a couple pics and post them up here of the NYPD females that got did to show their growth pattern.
