Hurricane / Sativa
From clone
400 watt hps from HTG Supply
Advanced Nutrients jungle juice 3 part
Grow, Micro, and Bloom
Bush Doctor Bembe Sweet & Dandy and Fox Farm Big Bloom
Vegged for 2 1/2 month
Flowered for 13 weeks
3 gallon pot, coco only and a tomatoe cage.
280 gr. Wet with stems

This sativa was fun to grow and it was also a learning experience. First grow using hps and not cfl like I had to before.
Had to deal with heat, humidity, ventilation, along with transplant stress, and heat stress in the early stages.
But over all was very fun and learned a lot on here reading , and of course Google and YouTube...
Got 2 more to harvest just waiting on tric's to turn amber..

looks good for your first grow . next time start flower a lot earlier . you will actually pull the same . if not more . this plant is way to tall . veg to a foot tall max. these plant stretch as you know 2 or 3 times the size .

Had money issues that prevented me from doing that , I vegged with CFL's till I was able to buy HPs , now I got some in there 1 ft tall flowering already..

One thing I learned is that 400 watt is still to small, and CFLs for veg only to save on light if money is tight.
Also had a Mars 300 watt led full spectrum only 140 watt from the wall. Got it at eBay for $70 but after reading more I didn't trust it to go into flower, its just to small not where near a $700 led.
HPs was $179 with open wing hood bulb and magnetic ballast.
But did have to order a cool tube from eBay to control heat my room is only 208 sqft.

I dont know about Mars but my 2 galaxyhydro 300w leds is putting more frost on the buds that my T5 isnt. I have the leds 5 inches from the top of a world of seeds wild Thai. The mars has 5 watt led so it is more concentrated than a 3 watt led system which puts off less heat overall.

I only have 1 mars 3w 140 true watts, but its to small as far as brightness the 400 blows it away , but I still run the led ,,looks nice.
