Whats up guys. So right now im running a 2x2 veg cab and 3x3 flower tent. Using a19 led bulbs in my veg tent 12x 14w mix of 5000k/2700k. The flower tent is running a 600 watt hps for the time being. Switching up to about 400 watts of f series 2 ft strips. 2 groups of 7 each powered by a meanwell 185 24a. Built the first half of the light this weekend. Will build the second half throughout the week.

Excuse the rough edges on aluminum. Had to cut it in a hurry, cant have my landlord over asking why im cutting up this metal. Also, ive got them wired up and a pic with it powered on but my wife is in it so ill take another.

As for strains right now ive got 2x gdps from gdp seeds, 2 fem og ghost train haze from rare dankness, 1 fem super silver sour diesel haze from connisoure, 3 triple purple rhino reg from docs dank, 3 purple voodoo f5 reg from bigworm. Just yesterday i grabbed a pack of docs gg4 s1, excited about that but no room just yet. Gonna make fems seeds via sts outta one of my gdp phenos then retire it. Decide which to run between the sssdh and og gth, and again between pv and tpr. Once i figure all that out ill finally get to pop one of these ggs.

In flower right now we have 2x gdp, 1x sssdh, 2x og gth. Veg can is holding 1 gdp, 3 ptr, 3 pv. Currently in my little 10x20" cloner ive got 1 gdp clone, 4 og gth clones.

Everything is growing in coco, 2 gal pots minus the regs most of which are in 1 gals because theyll be flowered small. Running lucas formula for nutes except i leave a small amount of epsom salts in, add 2ml calmag, and 3-5 ml of fulpower.

Couple pics of what ive got going on:

Both gth in veg

Gdp

Another gdp this pheno doesnt purple near as much as my other. This one is just starting in week 5ish. And a little nute burn but meh.

20180104_163429.jpg

The 3 tpr and 3 pv, and a gdp clone. the one pv that has already been transplanted looks a little rough due to starting him in soil, leaving to long, then transplanting to coco.

All pics are at least 5 days old ill throw some new pics up soon.

One of my gdp phenos that i cut last friday. It flowered for 9 werks and 1 day. This one smells sweet and grapey, the other smells like straight skunk fuel. Did a rough trim last night will finish up today or tomorrow.

And a newer pic of my other pheno. This one is starting to purple up good. At 6 weeks 3 says today.

Cool!

There are two GDP's in my garden at the moment. They're close to finishing up week two in flower, week 3 begins on Friday. I haven't seen any purpling yet but it's still early on. Looking forward to how this strain turns out.

Hey man. Ive checked out your monstrous gdps, they look fantastic. The fans on 1 pheno i have start purpling around week 3. 22 days is when i noticed it to be exact. The second pheno has barely started comapred to the other and its at week 6. Really nice smoke imo.

Right on man, appreciate the kind words. I'm definitely keeping an eye out to see if/when they start darkening up.. Do you by chance have a grow journal on RIU? Anytime I run into someone growing the same strain I like to scope out their grow.

Got my gg4 beans today! Really wanna pop one but im so short on room its not funny. Thinking about taking my 2x2 and making it my clone cab, my 3x3 my veg, and just flower in the closet the 3x3 is in now. Kinda scared though lol.

Also got an interesting freebie with this order. Was a "dcse untested freebie" purple snow bubba x gg4/predator pink.

Got the second half of my light done. Will get it hung at some point today. Gotta do an oil change, 2 tire rotations, and get my subs hook up then i can finish playing with lights. Maybe lights before subs idk lol.

As for plants both gth are stretching pretty good, sssdh has started budding. Instead of using both tent for veg ima keep things as is minus adding a small 2x2 flower spot inside my closet but not im my tent. The sssdh stretched an insane amount and kinda took over the 3x3, kinda expecting the gths to do the same. Had my first supercropping experience really neat to see how they can bounce back after breaking a branch. Not even 24 hours and they were headed up again.

As for gdps the. Is looking finished at 6 weeks 6 days. Gonna let it go until next sunday and chop it at 8 weeks. Really liking this pheno more than the other at this point as the other usually take 9-10 weeks to finish up, need something quick with both of these sativa dominant strains going on in there.

Gonna top all 6 of the tpr/pv to slow them down a bit. 3 going into flower next sunday after 1 gdp comes down, prolly the pv as they have more sativa than the tprs, and i dont have a toon of room, trying to keep them smaller.

Will get some pics up this evening when lights go out.

Gdp 3 at 4 weeks 4 days

Gth #1

20180113_191015.jpg

Gth #2 pretty sure these 2 are of the same or very similar pheno types. One is shorter as it has a led light above it while introduced to flower and the other relies strictly on the hps increasing its stretch.

And a little gdp #1 im smoking on tonight

Will throw up a couple pics of the veg tent and sssdh sometime. Sssdh had to removed from the tent and tossed into a make shift flowering space. Really excited for the next few weeks as these pv and tpr go into flower. Get to find my females and some real purple!

In other news upon first power up one of my meanwells took a shit on me. Thought i fucked up on wiring then i remembered i checked both lights with the same driver upon completion of building each half, and both worked fine. Then re wired the non working half of my light to my working driver, just to double check, and viola lights on. Ordered another driver which will be here sometime. Will remain a hps grow once i get it back up.

Heres the veg tent. The bigger 6 are the tpr and pv. Some took the transplanting a little beter than others. I really roughed uo the root balls before hand due to leaving them in the solo cups to long. Plant to the left is a gdp who will get flowered in the party cup as long as i have room. Smaller plant to the right is a gdp #3 clone.

You are doing a good job but from the coloration of the plants being a light green in veg tells me you are probably having a PH issue ,
