It depends on the size of your room and heating issues but a 400watt hps would do nicely or you could use CFL's like I do. Whatever you want a soft light 2700k for flowering.

I see some chlorosis going on there.

Hey UB,

Topped just below the 2nd node and ended up with this canopy. Thanks for all of your information!

Thanks for the compliment - she is very sickly


That is just the color correction I made to compensate for the LED and CFLs. She is actually very dark green and healthy.

Where did you find C99 seeds?!?! I'll sell my left testicle for some...

Okay, well maybe not my left testicle, but I'd pay good money for real C99 seeds!

If you did that right, its almost 130 colas, talk about sea of green. Gonna take up some space though, hope you are outdoors.

Guys I'm on page 235 and I'm pretty clear on how to do everything, but am I the only 1 that feels it should be more hardcore porn (8 week buds, colas, etc...)on here by now? Like I said I'm only on page 235 so if I just need to keep going just say so. I'm still in veg at the moment and I would just like to see some good pics of what I can look fwd to outside of UB's pics that keeps popping up.

I like this method to and have used it for yrs myself...great post

what strain is this?

UB I hear u speak on these "snake oils" alot and I'm gonna assume your referring to fancy labeled synthetic nutrients (I.E. advanced nutrients), yet u also say your not a purist and I'm gonna assume u mean that u don't mind a little synthetics in your organtics. So my 1st question is am I right in my assumptions, and my 2nd is exactly what is your take on running a combination of the 2? I've had my best yield with synthetics, yet my best quality with straight organtics (tho it could very well be alot of other factors in play) so I'm thinking of running the 2 together then in the last couple weeks just going with straight organtics. Thanks in advance...
