you cant tell in the pics, but the 2 on the left are 3 weeks into flower and already have bud growth. I'm just worried about the big one on the left. It already fills out most of the screen and its in its first dark period right now. That sucker might get huge. But I waned to see what I could do with a single plant vegged for 2 months. Mango is supposedly a big producer, so maybe I can still hit my previous weight.

Bigger the better! Just have to get even more creative to manage all that height :eyesmoke:

What size is your screen by the way? and what did you use to make it?

Burn on!:peace:bongsmilie

the screen in 3.5'x3'. I made it out of 1/2" pvc and 1"x2" plastic coated garden fence. I attached it with 8" white zip ties.

Right on thanks! I'm looking into constructing one for my next grow to really maximize the space I have.

I gotta spread some rep around but +rep when I can.

Burn on!:peace:bongsmilie

Honestly, with a pic like this: what do you think you would have ended up yielding? 8 Plants correct? I just cant get over this yield it would have been! Was the scrog helpful?

It was only 5 plants in that pic. The scrog was not only helpful, but completely needed. My room is only 3'4" tall. The light is 8" and the tub is 5".So my lights can be a max height od 2'3", but generally need at least 4" between the light, so really just under 2' tall.

Hey Integra, man, sorry to see the death of your girls (was just reading up on your journal!! damn) Anyway, back up ship shape in no time I see so good luck. I am with you on this, I killed my last headband clones overnight (they were 6 weeks old - boo!), just starting some new seeds now.

Good luck with it!!!

Damn Integra, that sucks dude, but at least you've got some ladies ready to take their place

You sure it was the addition of the Cal-Mag? Seems odd that something as innocuous as that would produce that kind of a result.

Yea I was over reading the journal and was looking at the grow space. Its amazing how you made that fit. What do you guestimate your yeild would have been? :confused:

I only assume. There is some sort of chemical reaction going on. I mixed up a small bucket batch with the calmag and bio root and within 2 days it was rancid with weird reddish brown shit floating in it. Without those being added it stays fine. So there has to be conflicting ingredients some where. Something acting as a catalyst. I still cant believe it killed an entire crop in under 24hrs. But live and learn.

I estimate it would have been slightly more than the previous since it was a higher yielding strain and wasnt going through the problems the widow had. So anywhere between 10-14oz. And it was hard to fit all that shit into such a small space and still have room for me. But at the moment I am looking to split the rooms and move veg and clones into a room under construction in my closet ans use the whole current space as a flowering area. Looking to add another light and screen for an alternating continual grow with a screen kicking out every month. Will obviously do a big update when this becomes a reality. Veg room update coming soon. A little more done each day.

Can you explain further?

the problem most people have with the botinacare cal-mag is,when you mix your nutrients. a lot of people do it a lot of people do it 100 different ways. the best way to do it really the only way,witch they fail to mention on the label when you mix your soup,change your res,or however you make your mix the very first thing that should go in your water,jug,res,tray,bucket,etc is the cal-mag.

what happens if you put your stuff in in a different order,or you mix it bye a feeding chart/schedule and its 3rd. NO FUCK THAT FROM NOW ON CAL-MAG IS ALWAYS FIRST. always put your cal-mag in first if you dont and mix it with something thats already in there and its not stired/airated ggood it will turn to a white milky cloud and all,every single nutrient you put in is now junk.


try it and see for your self in like a big ass cup with like a 10 to 50ml of each of your nutes and put the cal-mag in 2nd,3rd,or4th and watch it turn to wastless milky junk!!!

THIS IS MH HUMBLE OPINION AND WHAT I HAVE SEEN AND DONE ON MY OWN. AND WHAT MY GUYS AT MY HYDRO STORE AND I CAME TO A CONCLUSION ON.
