I love your set up. I have been looking for a good solid SOG strain myself. Im gonna be doing 2 liter hempys as well. Im gonna line up my closet with them. The best SOG stains I have read about are Belladona, HOG, Ice bomb, WWxBB, c99, Chronic, BB. Im leaning towards Ice bomb for myself.

Ive been looking at mosca's C99 bx1. .. Ive heard good things and the stats look like it would be suitable in my low height issues. I'll check out those strains....

Ina couple of weeks im going to make a BIG purchase from my local seed shop. This system allows one to trial many strains in separate hempy's or tubs.

Keep an eye on the thread, I'm going to try and improve it and will post my successes and failures. lol

Thanks.:bigjoint:

Nice pics dude! How much height do you have? I am curretly running Cheese from GHS and man this plant will not get tall! It is very viny like(almost a creeper style). If you top before you flower the plant almost stops vertical growth and fills out HUGE.

I dont know if it will work for your set up but have a look its quite something.

And the crystal...WOW

When you said it would be your last time Moebius, did you mean with hempy growing? and i like the idea of hempy alto, you have a separate cloning chamber? Do you just force them into flower by going to 12/12 from clone? Thanks

Cheers dude .... I have 3 GH Exodus cheese in my mother chamber. Im growing them out so that I can take a clone or two from each one. I'll then add them to the hempy tubs and will see how they do.

My height is only 113 cm ... that's floor to ceiling. Within that I need to fit everything. ATM I'm losing 6" due to the light-hangers, I'm going to remove them and fix the hoods directly to the ceiling this week.

I think you mean this comment?

Out of about 10 hempys, 3 have the budrot but Im not too upset because its a first for me, and a last.

I meant its the first time Ive sprayed my bud and the result was budrot. I wont do it again. LOL.
There's no way I'm stopping growing with this system. I have 100000% confidence that it produces the fattest most dense buds than any other system.

My thread to date has not done this system justice. Ive never run a journal before and haven't even taken a photo in more than 15 years. Also, I was/still am in the testing phase. Now I know its all good I plan on going for 100oz every 9 weeks.

This may be a dumb question but I recently took the plung into hydroponics( I have been doing soil for about 8 years) I am wondering how do you keep you plants short and with no branching. Is it the strain or a technique or just the shortness of the veg time. In soil I always have so many branches and would like my hydro to look like yours with a lot of just big colas. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated I have 60 clones that are ready to come out of m turbo Klone tomorrow and go into there net pots.

The plant has in-built into its bio-mechanics the ability to sense space around it. It does this by judging the space around its roots. In wide containers, Cannabis plants tend to grow wide. In narrow containers, like a 2L bottle the plants just will not spread out.

No training needed

Cheers buddy, I actually have another flower room where I have a couple of 5 footers budding. If this goes as well as I think it will I may even completely go 2L Hempy.

The bottles are 2L plastic bottles. They are just budget water bottles from a cheapo supermarket and cost pennies/cents.

Some people I have seen paint them black. I use Gorrilla tape, its perfectly light/waterproof and wont rub off like paint. I use a hot screwdriver to make 4 drainage holes, 2.25inches from the bottom.

Yeah, nice plant. Its grown purely for the bonsai esthetics.

Yes. 113 is very tight, especially when running 600W setups. I'm thinking I should have got the dimmables, I have one but the other 3 are not. Would have been an idea to drop down to 400w in the last week of growth when heavy bud production is not as vital...... I'll see how I go after I attach the hoods to the ceiling.

Ive done exodus cheese before and remember getting a super short, cheesy and sticky pheno. I germed 5 seeds but only 3 popped. sucks.

I'll try the cheese at some point but I tried big budda cheese before and remember it as a lanky.

awesome grow! i have been doing it in a 120 cm setup for 2 years, i was forced into everything i did and had to change everything so i feel ya bro!,had to use 3L pots ony filled half way= 4 inch high, 400w hps instead of 600, fixed direct to roof, had to use seeds and put them 12/12fs, had to use indica dom strains, ak48 and papaya worked for me but all the freebys worked 12/12fs with a little topping. a nice strong wind on them helped imo lol but idk. i bent them everytime i looked , not breaking them just lst i suppose. im finally getting a new grow room and i intend running the same type of thing as you now with clones but without the headache of crawling around lol

whats the minimum vegging time for clones in your experience m8 ?

best of luck bro, im subbed ,very nice thread, nice detail ,keep it up!

Thanks so much for your comments. It really helps with the motivation to carry on and make improvements.

Ive been looking at the Papaya ... the stats call it as a shorty. The only thing that made me think twice was I didn't know if my customers were ready for something that sounds so fruity.

I haven't done AK48 but have grown Serious' AK47. OK ...ish

I recommend growing like this. If you dont have height issues it will mean that you can easily catch run-off feed from the tubs in a bucket below. You just go round feeding with a watering-can. easy. ..... I lose 1 inch because I catch the run-off in a small saucer I have below the tubs.

edit;
Yes the crawling around does suck. Luckily I'm a skinny and still young. I make it worth it by growing so many plants.
