Thanks Gen, I trimmed it up this morning - after 16 hrs drying - and it looks like the yield is going to be better than the last grow. It's too wet to weight, but it looks like an oz. easy. Last grow was closer to .8 oz per plant. The buds are denser flowered under HPS, but there was more resin under CMH. Next grow I'm going the same route; Veg under CMH, Flower under HPS.yes sir,that is ripe,can not wait to here about the smoke+rep,some more
Thanks for checking it out C5.
The other indica comes out tonight. What I do is cover the plant with a black plastic bag, until chopchop time - the next day - because light and heat degrade THC.
I'm temped to harvest all of it, and start the K-train vegging, but it should be worth waiting another week.
The babies look good, but I got my spray bottles mixed up and shot one of them with Clorox cleanup instead of distilled water. augh
We should see the effects of that mistake within a couple days.These all got 1/4 Alaska Fish (5-1-1) and silica blast today.

I usually move them from the beer cups after the seedling stage is complete - after 3 weeks - because if the roots get cramped, it will stunt the growth.
I think it's been about 3 weeks this weekend, but the growth has been super slow and compact, due to super-low night time temps. It was 45 degrees fahrenheit in the grow room last night.
I pulled the other Indica, and the 1st BMS comes down tomorrow.
I'm going to harvest the remaining plants within the next few days, and move the K-train into their permanent containers. I'm finding mature seeds, in some of the buds, and seeing 30% amber trichs now. It's done.
I'll be using a new product this time. Humbolt's "MYCO madness". It's a root simulator, and beneficial soil bacteria, and comes highly recommended. youtube/google it for more info
Thanks for all the great comments, and stay tuned

I'm felling another tree 
Here you can see lots of male flowers pushing in late flower
Gigabud is also ripe
Here's 1 of the BMS purple pheno's - can't wait to sample but she has a couple more days to go.
Yield on this second grow cant be compared... looks like double. 2 oz plants

Great grow. How do I tell if my seeds are good or not? Also any specfic way to germinate?
Hey Guy's this is my very first grow, hell only once in my life have a seen plants growing, and it was 2am in the dark in some feild.
I have been reading and learning all my stuff on this site so Thanks to everyone!!!!
KNOW you can see what my problem is just by looking at my Pictures oh and I did Supercrop them so they won't burn from the light.
My WW took the space over and the 1000w hps isn't penetrating all the plants just the tops of them.
This is my second Week of flowering and I know I have to do something quick.
I have another 1000w ballast I could add in there, but dont have a cool shade, so my temp will rise it under a stair case and is only 3x5 now and Im having a hard time raising the shade anymore.
should I add CFL around the lower sides near the pots for more lower light?
or do I try and build a 3x3 or 4x4 room and use the 1000w ballast putting 2 -4 of the 8 plants in it?
Or would andone have and idea how to raise my shade in there now so it get all the plants without taking any out or adding another 1000w hps.
Hey this could be normal that the lower branches are just starting to bud and I'm freaking out for nothing!!
After these come down I will be moving to where I will be using 4 bay garage to grow. So this was my learning spot.
Thanks
and I all the suggestions the better

Green cross,
I just wanted to thank you for all the help over the months. I got it set up and running now. I went with HPS and CMH and I tossed the hydro system to the attic and going Organic. I really appreciate you answering the PM and other questions. I hope one day in some way I can re pay the favor.

Thanks for all the comments guys. It's been a busy past 2 weeks.
Harvest is finished, and curing.
The colors are pretty - more purple buds this time - and the smell is dank
The grow room was cleaned, and the containers cleaned and disinfected, in preparation for the next batch.
All the K-train babies we moved into thier new homes, in PH 7 soil, yesterday. Along with the K-train, are 2 BMS clones. The largest BMS will require relentless LST to keep her under control, and the runt (purple pheno) has some catching up to do, her root ball was lacking when compared to the others - this is the one that was saved from the warm fridge (failure), if you remember...
K-train should be an exciting change from the previous grows, as I plan to veg for a minimum of 5 weeks, before flipping the switch.
Look forward to weekly updates.
Stocky little bitches from cool temps and cool CFL lighting. These are actually working on their 7th set of leaves. They'll stretch out soon.
This one has more kush (indica) looking leaves.
This is the most vigorous and interesting pheno of the bunch. Easily identifiable, by the red growing tip.
Yellowing, and nute burn, on the lower leaves is nothing to worry about.
Here's the runt. The Purple Pheno of DJ Short's Blue Moonshine
This is the #3 Pheno of BMS. She was becoming pot-bound, and probably has some slight burn from silica-blast dosing. I plan to take cuttings off all these before flowering.

Group shot (right). Both lights are running now, but only 1 was on in this pick.
All comments welcome.

Hiyaz tryna,
I was thinking about going with HPS in veg yesterday, when the CMH bulb looked like it wasn't going to fire up lol
but HPS causes a lot of stretch, and the red spectrum promotes flowering, not growth. I am thinking about switching back to CMH though, at the end of flowering. The UV in these bulbs promotes resin production.

What is CMH? I know MH is metal halide. I am also considering throwing my MH back in for the last 2 weeks. I think most of the bud production is done.Hiyaz tryna,

I copied most of this from page 5:
The light I'm using Philips Master Color Retro White (4k full spectrum)
As much blue as eye blue hortilux and half the price.
More red than HPS
High UV (wear sunglasses)

Cross,
Why not run both a hps and cmh during the flower stage. Hps would give you the dense buds and cmh would give you the resin.

HPS has too much red spectrum... I'd like to keep the stretch down. MH/veg HPS/flower has been the standard for a long time.
Thanks for asking slabhead. I have an update coming shortly.

Nice juvenile growth spurt taking place 
They went 2 weeks between the transplant and the next watering. Fed with myco-madness, rare earth, molasses, and earth grow catalyst. The next day the new growth had exploded
The 3 smaller ones are also getting fish emulsion 5-1-1 foliar feeding, and I think I'll start supplementing CO2 to see if they can catch up to the rest...
No stretch under these lights - + this is the kush pheno
Here's a trainwreck leaning pheno
