@Path of Light you are absolutely correct, mj is resilient and doesn't give up.

@sky rocket early on when I ran into root rot issues, I ended up cleaning all my equipment with 10% bleach water. Then ran half nutes for a few days, and introduced 3ml Hydroguard per 1 gallon. Haven't had any issues with it since. I have faith you'll get it figured out.

"Audrey" which is the name that was given to my Pineapple Kush, has managed to survive another day. She was supposed to be cut down today, but my schedule became way overloaded. Currently have our house for sale, and had some cleaning and rearranging of furniture to get it ready for showings and open houses this week. I'm super psyched to cut her down and start the curing. Almost as much as the hunt for a new house with property, and a pole barn to do some growing in. She is coming down tomorrow since I have to be out of the house for a 9am showing.

The Pineapple Kush donated herself to science today. The picture of bud in hand had wet weight of 14 gram, we'll see what this all comes out to in a couple weeks. Don't mind the clutter around my dry rack, it's a temporary place til we sell & purchase new house. The Critical Kush Is really starting to put on some size, and those 2 are overtaking the others. Had to start working them to grow to the left. Taking guesses on final weight of bud & trim, together or separate. Let's see who is best at guess the weight.

...I read all 552 pages of this thread and just had to comment on the quality of your grow.

Thanks Stink for creating this thread. It has been very informative. You seem like a cool dude, hope you are doing well!

Well it's been quite the historical week here in Oregon. Recreational has finally become legal!!! We've been really busy at the store. Even though you can only buy 7g a day, we are still pounding through the jars. On the first day of rec sales, Oregon doubled Colorado's sales and quintupled Washington's!

Lately my favorite has been the Durban Poison. It's a super racy, pure Sativa, that I call "Speed Weed", or sometimes "The Houscleaner" because after you smoke a bowl you have to do something, like clean the house. Querkle was my favorite Indica and Mob Boss was my overall favorite for taste. 3-Kings is hot and Ogre Kush are also popular. Ogre Kush smells just like a can of pineapples.

Setting in front of me is, Wedding Cake, Gorilla Glue #4, Querkle, Mob Boss, Amnesia Haze, SSPOG and 3-Kings. Which one would you smoke?

So thinking I'm going to start making the lighting change in my flower tent from the T5 setup to HPS. For a 4'×6' area, would you go 2 - 400 watt or 2 - 600 watt? Also, what are peoples preference on hood styles?

if utilities isnt an issue seems like dual 600's would give u the highest return.if u dont have cooling now you'll need to now or more likely come spring,depending you dont live in a very warm climate year round.My 2 cents on a reflector would be an air-cooled hood that will give good coverage for ur meds & have them connected.Assuming its cold where u live running without the hoods lens as an open reflector to supplement some heat if needed.How many plants?You got some skills I think u could get 1-1.5lb with that much light.Depending ur states # of plant maximum adjust ur veg time accordingly.:peace:

@Path of Light yeah, I was leaning towards dual 600's. I run a portable ac unit in the summer months. But, gets very cold in Michigan during the winter. That is when I'll be pulling cold air from outside, and helping heat the house with heat off lamps. Air cooled hoods is my preference also, going too see what deal I can workout with a local hydro shop on used equipment. Michigan has a 12 plant limit per patient currently, Up to 5 patients under caregiver. So you could have 72 plants max @ any given time.

nice.even per patient you can get some real weight.having 5 patients sure would speed up harvests & maximizing space.got a friend in Niles said the've had the heat on during the summer,so yeah those lights would be welcomed for their winter heating.:peace::blsmoke:

@Path of Light more patients would be nice. But wanted to get a working system up and running that was producing quality meds. Before taking on patients, that need meds asap. Expansion, and equipment upgrade is on the horizon.

Niles is 2hr south of me, and only ever been that way while driving to Chicago.

Had a neighbor lady that has trained for years (lol) volunteer to be my quality assurance tester on the Pineapple Kush. Her final report, "Wow!" smokes clean, awesome sweet citrus taste, burns even & slow, nice snow white ash when done. Plus, she was having trouble standing still & talking straight. Pretty impressive cerebral high. She gave it two enthusiastic thumbs up.

Nice to hear did you flush the pineapple kush or just lowered the nutes towards the end?

We just got in a new batch of Larry Bird Kush, Loud, Headband, Cannadential, Blue Ox, Sour Apple and Tahoe OG. The Loud has a great sour citrus finish and a powerful buzz. The best tasting bud we have now is the Cannadential. It's a mix of LA Confidential and Cantaloupe. It smells just like a honeydew melon and tastes even better. It has a subtle tea taste to it, think Lipton Iced Tea.

I also like the Sour Apple. It really does taste like one of those Sour Apple candies.

It's funny to watch peoples eyes light up when they walk into my shop. We have over 20 different varieties on the shelf and they're all dank as fuck. Most people are completely overwhelmed with all the choices. I love talking about all the different strains and of course it's my job to sample every one of them! bongsmilie

Well, not sure what to think of my first harvested plant. Trim and buds dried quick, and after her weigh in. She gave 20 gram trim & 1.2 oz bud. But, she is what she was. Pineapple Kush is a nice tasting smoke

Dude that looks like straight chronic.

Fuck my plants are still in veg, but I'm finally getting the hang of this (aka not killing some poor innocent plants).

The one on the right is an adromina from 710 genetics I got in a freebie. After a couple weeks I fimmed it twice and all of a sudden it started bushing out of control. I gave it some unnessary stress cause I'm a noob which slowed it's growth rate a little but still been having to constantly prune it to keep it from complety dominate all the space. Can't wait to see the flowers.

She seems to handle alot of nutes but I cut back since I put in a younger green crack from the dispensary in.

I Just popped like 4 other seeds as well a few days ago.
