connie = Conquistador it is a mix of cindy99-hash plant-Ortega......cindy99 is supposed to be fuckin amazing...and mixed with the other two produces amazing colas....so keep an eye on this thread....I know it will be one for the hall of fame.

The more I think about it the more I realize ......I NEED MORE FUCKIN LIGHTS! so...yeah...13 plants right now and all I have is 1 150 watt hps for veg and 1 600watt hps for flowering...I need more for veg and maybe another 600 for flower...this perpetual thing at four plants per two weeks is gonna leave me with a huge amount of weed....I have the room and the money to expand but I just dont know if I wanna get into 60 to 100 plants going at once....cause that what i figure it will turn out to be....maybe I will do fout a month instead of 8 to 16...yeah....hmmm

Hi Honkeytown
Whatever you decide to do, I'll be watching for sure.
I was thinking of doing something similar with maybe 2 plants every 2 weeks but, like you I would have to ramp up my HPS to about 6 or 800 watts if I did 2 a fortnight with 10 weeks of flowering I would have up to 10 plants at a time and you should really have at least 100 watts HPS per plant.
My set-up was originally designed to have 4 females which is why I got the 400watt MH and HPS lights.
I was wondering if 2 400 watt lights would give a better spread than 1 800 watt (if you can get 800w HPS).
I will also have heat issues with that sort of power in my flower room so I might have to redesign it all too.
I will watch yours with interest.

Props honkey, nice set-up, simple and to the point. When you are looking at adding light take the time to research t-5's and led's. Just some options to consider. Nice looking plants. VV

Thanks VV I have been following your work closely. I am a fan. I am trying to keep it simple. light dirt water nutes airflow. I dont plan on doing anything near what you are pulling off but it should be nice. oh and yeah. I am looking into getting some t5's. I do a lot of work in commercial building remodeling so they should be pretty easy to get my hands on cheap.:mrgreen:

Looking good as ever HT, those Connies look healthy, is that a little burn on the clone or just the light making it look yellow?
I have 7 clones that I cut over a week ago and still no roots yet so I have just put 6 Abyss seeds in germination as a back up.
I will probably end up with all 13 lol I hope not.

here is an update with some porn in it for you homie.... big girl is looking good. I really wanna cut her down but I just noticed the mites may be back though...so I am gonna spray her tomorrow and the next day really well and then give her a couple of days before I chop her. 1-4 are doing very well...3 and 4 got topped again two days ago and are starting to show nubs. the connies are looking good after being topped a week ago or so. they are finally starting to grow hourly again. I am debating whether or not to top them again. I figure if I top them one more time now I will have tons of possible clone locations on the plant. I had five more seeds come through the soil and are showing their first little set of serrated leaves and two more seeds in soil that will be coming through tomorrow or early the next morning. I also have three seeds germing right now. Then...the clones. both are in soil. one is under the 150 watt 24/0 and the other is still about four feet from it in it's humidity bubble. should be putting it under the light in a day or two...maybe three.

thatnks bmad...the connies are goin strong. it's not burn on the clones...I am just letting them transpire more than they would like to be...whatever...im lazy. I hope you end up with 13....I dont see you killing any of them unless they are boys...i know I couldnt bring myself to do it....I would just think...maybe the ones I killed were the good ones...hmm...lol

mmmmmmmmmm...... mine just barely are going into flower cycle! I will be able to determine the sex of my seedlings soon! I haven't gotten an indoor set up to the point where I felt confident with flowering... I am working on getting there though, for some reason your grow just reminds me in the back of my mind of a lot of things that I want to do.

I try to keep it simple man so that at any time I can rid myself of everything in minutes. I really do have to say though...the more light the better. I wish I had another 600 to veg with...after seeing the 400's in the hydro shop I laughed...my 600 putts out so much more light...it's crazy! I will say too...my shower is like the best fuckin place to flower...man I can flush em right there if I have to...soon I am gonna set up a table in the bathroom with a drain into buckets so I can deal with everything inside...I will block that off from the flowering light and veg in ther so I have my whole grow in the bathroom....:mrgreen:
