Trans Siberian Auto's Soil & 600w hps!

Tric shots of the plants.
None are telling me their ready yet. Sugar leaves have ambers on them but that's normal. Buds seem mostly clear/cloudy still.

Still got time!

The clone going strong.... defoliated her yesterday to encourage more new nodes.
Bounced back with vengeance.

36 days since cut from the mother.

Looks good but definitely needs a bit more time. Not the clearest pics but from what I can make out they look like 98% cloudy and 2% amber so just a bit longer. Clone looks real healthy...which reminds me I need to go take pics myself! My little gg #4 clone that was abused for a good month is really moving along now...an untintentional defoliation that is now gonna have so many clone sites I'm gonna have to find my trusty bottle of clonex or rootone.

Progress is looking great my friend!

101 days from seed.

Looking through my loupe am seeing mostly cloudy trics. Ambers are forming on the sugar leaves. Am going to take a more intense look at the weekend and all being well will chop em down.
Will take pics closer to the weekend.

Feel wise for the buds - 2 plants are rock hard (like squeezing a pint glass on the massive colas) , the other feels and looks airy (not overly concerned, but it is a noticeable difference).

The clone is looking epic at 42 days old. Lost count on how many tops I'm going to have once scrogged - haven't decided if I want to grow her up another 6 - 8 inches then top everything and then wait another 3 or 4 inches and then flip.
My estimations put that at around 8 - 10 weeks of veg (over kill in my space?). No idea how much she's going to stretch once put into flower. So far she's filled the 15 litre air pot she's in but staying no more than 10 - 12 inches in height. Everything is trained in a spiral - again will get pics up by weekend.

Argh... my bloody HPS blew up!! Ordered 2 new ones. LUMii ones instead of sunblasters. Only been using it for maybe 2500 hours. Unimpressed!!

Got my T5 hooked up as a backup, Annoying since I planned to chop this weekend. Why couldn't it have waited!!

Put all blue in the t5 and finish. It will help it finish a little faster. They look great.

All blue bulbs. 6400-10,000 kelvin in color temp.

Pretty sure the T5 in there is 6500 kelvin. Just feels weak as piss compared to HPS

So yeah... got the plants hangin n drying.
Buds are a lot more sativa than indica from what I'm used to.
Did a quick dry on a small tip of a bud. This stuff is killer. Really strong head buzz which fades to a nice relaxing stone.

Will get weights up when they are jarred.

On other news my single plant scrog is coming along nicely.
Some pics for your entertainment!

This is the network of branches I'm creating. Letting her gain some height now. A lot of the stakes are just used as weights on certain branches for now. Plan to tie down the bigger branches when she grows more. For now I want her to grow up a little taller.

Ended up with 283 grams dry weight from them. Not too shabby. Expected more, but I need to do more work with them if I want heigher yields.
Ended up with 300 grams of trim and micro bud that I'll buble hash when I have a few more runs of trim to use.

Mutant clone is looking beautiful now.

Signature is fixed now too.

I'm pushing for 1gram per watt on this scrog. Be interesting to see how close I get.
