This is my first grow ever, but I researched, researched, and researched for about a month before I started this grow. These are being grown in a state I just received my medical marijuana card to grow legally. I will have pics at the end of this post. Here is my setup, which is being done in my spare bathtub with no mylar or reflective material.
  • 1000 watt air cooled MH/HPS
  • 435CFM hurricane inline fan
  • Phresh Carbon Filter
  • Four 5gallon smart pots
  • Fox farm ocean forest soil
  • 4 OG Kush seeds from ILGM
  • Fox Farm Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, and Grow Big
  • General Hydroponics PH up & PH down
  • Azamax
  • TDS EZ ppm meter
They sprouted from the soil around May 21st (give or take a day). I didn't start feeding them any nutrients until around day 25-30 from sprout, which I fed 1/3 strength and slowly added more nutrients every other water. Started the first water with around 400ppm of nutrients and went up to 600, 800, etc... Every other watering. I vegged at 24 hours a day for the first 14 days, then switched to 18/6 on day 15 to finish out veg. On day 36 from sprout, I switched to flowering, where they were all between 13-15inches tall. A week and a half into flowering, I trimmed off a bunch of the lower canopy. They are now 25 days into flowering and are 24-25 inches tall with about 12 to13 good tops each. The temperatures get no higher than 80 during the day, and at night time around 65 (give or take 2-3 degrees). Humidity is fluctuating between 40-60%. The hurricane fan only blows filtered air out outside the house, where I don't have an intake fan, just what enters the room when the A/C is on, or bathroom door. There is a fan however blowing just over the top of the plants to displace the air around the plants. I am really hoping for 16 ounces (.45grams/watt), but would be happy with anything over 10 ounces (.28grams/watt). What are some of your guys' thoughts on what you think I might yield? Here are 10 photos below from sprout to day 25 of flower.

I bet watering is a pain with them in the bath? My advice would be if your planning on using that net as a scrog screen, you'll need to tighten it up otherwise you'll have buds poking out all over in flower, yeild wise you'll be looking at 5-6 oz dry. Good luck

Woops skipped the bit about there being 4 plants I thought there was 2 lol I'm shit predicting yeild so let me know when you get there.

Haha, yes, watering in the bath takes maybe 10 minutes longer than it should. As for the scrog screen, I put it on way too late, around day 15 of flower, so It was hard to get it tight as I didn't want to break any colas trying to work it down in the plant, and then tighten it. These little things will make a big difference on the next grow.

Sorry guys, I thought I posted a photo of all them together. So here is a photo I just took of them all. Yes, its night time for them and I used the flash, but I don't think half a second of light will hurt them much. Lol
