Sup RIU finished my last kush run a few weeks ago got about 17 ounces of dried bud and 60 grams of oil/dabs/wax whatever you call it

I'll be doing a 4x8 this go around, with a 1000 watt HPS and two 525 watt NextLight LEDs. Plants will be in 10 gallon recirculating bubble buckets, using full advanced nutrients lineup. Will be using microbes too

Temps stay at 77 and humidity at 60 percent

Water chilled to 66 degrees, I'll be scrogging for a few weeks then flip. The cut of this strain I have takes about 50 days till it's showing amber tri chomes then I chop


8 inch fan to exhaust my tent with 8 inch filter, and 6 inch fan to cool my hood

Should be fun

Feel free to stop by and drop a comment everyone is welcome

Building the setup at the shop



These are the sizes clones I get lol



New lineup gonna run full advanced this go



Here was right after transplant... A little droopy. Once they recover I will lower lights



A bud from last critical kush harvest







Some wax I made from critical kush trim



And here is how I ended up last harvest the buds aren't huge but they were the most dense and heavy I've had yet

I had 400 Gs of dried material (I use sugar leaves and buds less than .3 or so) when I was done, I get about 15 % when I blast trim

I run a pretty frosty strain, and my material consists of only leaves like an inch within the bud. No big fan leaves or anything

Sup Patch,

Thanks for letting us share in the fun.

My last run was Critical Kush------no complaints, also ran the AN nutes with RO water.

Have you used that Bud candy stuff before? If so, what did you think?

Never used bc but used "sweet"-----for me, not worth how it made everything sticky (rez, tubes, panels).

Anyway, subbed up.

edit: forgot to ask a favor. Your lighting configuration sounds like a great chance to record yield

from a 1K hps compared to the LEDs.

A~~~

Yes it will be the true test of a 1k replacement. 1000 watts of HID (plus whatever comes extra out of my ballast) vs 1050 watts of LED.

Both full spectrum!


Thanks for joining in man bongsmilie

I used bud candy last go with it and like I mentioned earlier I get around 15% return for my wax off of trim, and around 25% or so off of the bud...... works very well in my opinion

But I can't say that without telling you what else I used.....

VEG:
GH Growmicrobloom
Cyco XL
CalMag

Bloom:
GH growmicrobloom
Cal mag
Big Bud
Bud Candy
PureFlowers 0-30-0 (I think)

But let's not forget the fabulous genetics:)!!!!!! I will check out your ck run as well

No need to be sorry brother i normally go dark close to the end myself for my own reasons long as i get to see some nice bud porn i am happy i just get worried when people go off line for a long time i am glad you upgraded your system must be a lot easier now that you can get stuff at cost price keep up the good work

Yes much cheaper.... Hate to say it but the heat coming out from under a nextlight 525 was more than what my hortilux 1000(air cooled) was throwing

So two of them would've been that much worse I'm assuming

Gonna take them back to the shop and double the HPS setup

4x8
2x1000 watt hortilux

Funny you say that bro cause my roots like like SHAT right now lol

When they were clones they had net pots basically touching the water so all roots were thin water roots, and when I transplanted into these buckets I left like a 3 inch gap between water and net pot and some roots died, then SOMETHING came by and started eating it. I dunno exactly what cause I had voodoo juice, tarantula, and pirahna all in my resevoir that's gotta be like 50 species of bacillus and trichoderma and mychorrizae in there..... Also I. Added an enzyme to help eat the dead roots.

My water is constantly 66 degrees and it's getting blasted with oxygen so I don't think it's Pythium.... But regardless the roots died so my plants took a stunt bro

I replaced that shitty new hood with an exact reica XXXL sunlight air cooled hood too. The insulation in it makes a huge difference man like 5 degrees easily I would highly recommend them in your garden if you have the extra cash

Excellent man glad to have you! Your girls look immaculate. That's over a gram per watt I believe for the 2k setup which is more than what I am aiming for. I was shooting around .6 gpw! But I mean there's no reason I shouldn't crush it.....
