hey guys I'm trying to take a video to post here, so you guys can get a real understanding of how well these sips and the glue is performing as to all the others using the same soil and methods.
but my problem is I don't wanna make a YouTube video, bc 1 I'm not legal and 2 YouTube is always on a witch hunt for growers, so if anyone can help I'll have a treat for you guys!

still haven't figured out the video, but heres a pic, got the hps fixed and running, also left on the 2 full spectrum leds, I'm sure the light is way over powered lol, but I don't think it will hurt it, lights are good space away, and all are different spectrums! if I'm wrong tho, someone tell me, if not I'll find out soon enough lol going to flip 12/12 on the entire room at midnight on new years! lol why not.

Beast! i'll have updates of my glue at 2.5 weeks in my thread later today so you can see what kinda stretch is happening with them. I think with the colder temps i have running right now, they're not to their full potential, but they have another 7-10 days worth of stretch to go, so we'll see. they look amazing though, and so does yours!
how many sq. ft. is she taking up? looks like about 9ish?

I am following your thread I'm pretty sure? just in case if u don't mind post a link here, I'm sure someone else in future may appreciate it anyway! @ShLUbY
and the gg is taking up half of my 4x8, so 4x4 which comes too 16 sq. ft. but technically I made my scrog a tad smaller then 4x4, just bc I wanted to guarantee it would fit in the the new tent, and at the time the tent was in the mail, and I've heard rumors of ppl ordering tents and they show up just an inch or two smaller than the advertised measurements, so to avoid all that I played it safe, so scrog is about an inch shy of 4x4 on both sides!
I'm hoping to pull at least a pound off this one girl, I think it's possible but I really don't know if she will do it! maybe someone else with experience with this strain may be able to tell me a ballpark range of what she may yield!

but I've come to conclusion on what I'm doing, since this gg flowers in 64 days, and today marks 64 days of veg since I received her, it makes perfect timing to do her perpetually! I have a 4x8 space to fill, so my plan is 1 gg plant every month! I'll have 2 in flower (just like the one I have now) at all times one month apart, and 2 in veg, same thing, this would allow me to harvest one of these big mofos, every month!
I think that would be a perfect perpetual grow, that's why I'm hoping she will yield 1 pound, bc that is almost exactly what I need, maybe a tad more, but that would be perfect for me!
all I have to do now, is get two hlg 600 for the 4x8 and 2 dedicated veg lights, preferably t5 or led, just so I don't ha e any issues with heat! after all that I'm going to start learning and tackling co2, I know it's expensive which is why I've never ran it, but that my next step to dialing in my set up and maximizing my space and lights!

Link is in my signature
sounds like a good perpetual grow!
remember LEDs still produce heat! those HLGs are the whip though. CO2 should be interesting with organic soil. i've been contemplating using some myself. One has to remember that the nutritional requirements of plants increases when you start introducing extra CO2. I imagine 20 some gallons of soil should have enough though... one would think that anyway

lol yea I don't think I'll have any issues with running out of nutes, with the way my sips and soil are built!Link is in my signature

ALRIGHT GOT SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR YALL! I have 2 almost identical cuts of gg4, they were taken at the Same time, and both giving the exact same of everything, so why not, let's run a side by side!!!
I already know that the sips with probiotics are smashing my regular living soil in smart pots, but heres to putting this to rest, and giving everyone some hard proof! rather than just my word!
So yall chose which one will be #1 and #2, also which one goes in the the sip tomorrow and which one will be put into a #10 smart pot (the biggest one I have) I'll do both tomorrow, and label them! FYI Both were topped about 5 days ago, bc they were getting too tall.
I will continue to do my smart pot like I always have, with top dressigns, and compost teas, and I'll do the sip just like the last one, seal it up and forget about it!
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

heres what's I've came up with so far, I'm trying to go as lil as possible, but at the same time, I like the diversity. I really need to run a soil test, but that's not exactly top priority this very moment! got a lot more things to save up and buy!

pics from about 5 min ago, still just tucking away, growing about an average of 1-2 inches a day, having to tuck branches about every 2 days! but all is going smoothly, my only complaint would be just trying to get a good dam pic, in order to fit this monster all in one pic, the quality just sucks, not to mention the lights! oh well, maybe one day I'll actually buy a nice camera instead of just using my phone lol.

I'm actually using a galaxy note! usually I can take some amazing pics, but it has to be up close, idk Maybe it's just going to shit, I wish I could afford a nice camera, but unfortunately I'm still around 2-3 grand shy of getting everything I could possibly need for my grow! I'm slowly getting a few things At a time! next is some new bad ass led flower lights!

it really sucks bc the pics just don't it justice! she is very pretty right now, beautiful color in the leaves! but I can never get in a take a good pic! and I also don't wanna mess up the light schedule! I've also been really anal about that!
maybe I'll turn on and old phone, make some dummy accounts, and make a video to post to YouTube, that way I could actually show off how pretty she is! if I just shut off the lights for a few min, any recommendations on what kind or type of light to use to actually show the true colors? I have a 4 ft t5 with led white bulbs, I think that might look good, what yall think?
