Update - Week 6 flowering now. Almost there!!!!

Here's some of the pic's of week 2.5 flowering. Biggest plant on the right at the back is Top-44 regenerated from last time, on the left next to it is big bud x northern lights (regenerated). They where trimmed to the same size (+/- 70cm tall) and regenerated at the same time. As you can see the t-44 puts on loads of growth during flowering!! The smaller plants are all from seed. 4 hash berry down the left side, and 4 (possible NL not sure seeds were free from a friend) unsure plants down the right. Buds aren't too visible on the pics, but each flower head is about 2cm2 at the mo and growing fast. All under 600w light with mylar on the walls. Temp is around 24/26oC during the day and 16/18oC at night. To give you an idea of scale the t-44 plant is now about 1.5m tall. The rest are around a meter or so +/- 20cm. The pic of the smaller plants are:- small ones at top - 3 bbxnl cuttings and others are T-44 cuttings. All cut about 2 weeks ago. Note how well the t-44 cuttings are growing in comparison. Cuttings are being vegetated under 100w florescent light and 3 x 25w halogen lights. This lot will be put in main room to flower after next harvest. I shall keep posted with weekly updates for anyone who's interested. Also maybe people can help me identify the 'mystery' plants. 



Here's a better one:-

Here's week 3.5:-


Better one:-

Close up of one of the Hashberries:-

Bit blurred i know but best i can do. 

Can't get any better close-up pics with my cheap digi-cam.
WEEK 5 PICTURES:-


This one is the mystery plant...any ideas what it is?



Last shot shows how i trimmed the lower branches. I'd did this a week ago (week 4) and now have over 1oz dried weed!!! Pretty good stuff too. Also the plants aren't so crowded now and there is lots of room for air to circulate beneath them. Should prevent bud rot. Very happy with them. Harvest date +/- 1st of May. Can't wait!!!

Ok, heres a pic of the other end of the grow room. It shows on the right one of the 'mystery' plants and you may just be able to make out behind that one of the 1gallon demijohns of wine i use for extra CO2(that 1 contains gooseberry wine). Also you can see the edge of the platform (actually an old door covered in pond liner and white plastic) that the plants rest on. This is tilted slightly so that the run-off water drips back in to the reservoir (black thing on far left). The reservoir is about 10-12 gallons. You can also so the 16mm plastic pipe that is attached to a 1000ltr/hour pump in the reservoir. This pipe then runs around the edge of room with smaller (6mm) tubes attached to it, which are in turn attached to drippers which feed each plant. Whole system uses digital timers. Also you may just be able to make out the guardian of my garden, which is a small quail!!! lol

Only 600w. I am planning to get a 400w son-argo-t to boost light next time. But for now I used mylar on the walls. I can't stress enough how good mylar is, light reflection is hugley improved, thus, plants are much bushier and more light reaches the lower branches. All in all it makes much more light available as it bounces it around soo they receive light from many angles.

I think that might do(don't use mirrors-glass eats light!!), eligal,but here's a US site that supplies it:- (I have seen US sites that are half this price, but couldn't find it this time, google 'mylar' and check for yourself) http://www.altgarden.com/site/mylar/page1.html

Note to the paranoid/cautious - use a friend to order supplies that you are worried may be traced by the feds. Sent to a different address. Assuming they aren't doing anything they wouldn't want the feds to know about, give them cash and they can put it on they're card.

Nice plants, looks like you're going to be a little crowded in there in a few weeks time.

Mine will be fine. The trick is to trim all the lower braches and leaves to get plenty of circulation. End result with the crowding will be smaller buds but more of them, so all in all about the same quantity of weed.
