i use a 250watt hps over each plant, 250 to keep down the heat down,3 weeks into flower i use [FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Dr Hornby's Big Bud[/FONT]
im in brum myself,im useing a home made system,aero And Drip system.
...It's a dream to work with, i mean sell, as you can get 10 pounds per gramme, and believe me people will pay. I love the stuff and have smoked it many times. It's too good to be sold in bulk. Even if I had a 10 kilo's of the stuff, I'd still sell it by the gramme.
On my third crop of cheese at th min,im getting 20 to 25 ounce of 3 plants,amazing stuff
....I done the stupid thing of cutting all the leaves off as someone had recommended it (i think it was about 2 weeks into flowering)...
One 250w per plant? Thats like 750w combined. What enables you to yield so much? Are you weighing it wet? I'm goin to build me a mini flood and drain today.
He's an aero grower.
I amputated a lot of leaves but it was like 2 weeks before the end to give better light penetration lower down the plant. I had dense nuggs all over the 24" tall girls.
Yes, have you looked into my evolution of the trichome thread? It proposes that trich's are a means to magnify light and that dwindling light sources (or the dark) are what're responsible for trich' development. Trich's are a response by the plant to help capture more light during the next day. Taking off the fan leaves would be a good way to produce excess trich' production. Two weeks before harvest seems ideal to me.
I've also trimmed the bud while it was still flowering (3 days to go), trimmed it like it was already harvested. The trich' production on the plant was clearly much more in abundance compared to the rest of the plants.

True cheese does not and never has seeded. It only is available via cutting.
Tere are cheese varieties that have been back corssed to produce seed bearing plants. I think Big Budda sell them.
If you can get hold of any to smoke, do so, its an awesome plant.
Damn I want some freaking exodus aka cheese or roadkill skunk........But considering its an elite strain from the uk its hard to come by.......Has anyone here tried Big Buddhas cheese or Barneys cheese??
Which breeder on dr.chronics website is selling kushxskunk? I heard the only breeder to have a clone of the original cheese clone from the uk was big buddha and he crossed it with afgani to make the seeds???? and dr.chronic does not ship to the us anymore.....
