White Russian & Ace of Spades
Well everyone the improvements have been made, clones have been taken, and have been growing about 3 weeks.

The strains are as follows;

Serious White Russian Seeds Specs
Type: mostly indica
Indoor clone grow time: 5 - 10 days
Indoor flowering time: 56 - 63 days
Indoor yield: 350-500 grams/m2
Outside/ Greenhouse harvest time: 15-31 October

11 Seeds per pack

Serious White Russian Cannabis Seeds Info
The White Russian plants yield very powerful buds, coated with resin.
Very strong, long lasting High, more cerebral than a knockout. Medicinal plant.

These seeds produce plants that are fantastic in both appearance, and effect.
One of the most typically indica strains,
White Russian is a stable cross of AK-47 and White Widow (a prize winning indica clone).
Medium height, consistent plants and dense, very resinous flower tops (crystals appear after about 5 weeks of flowering).
With such a strong indica background, the plants smell quite strong during both their growth and flowering period.
In an independent seed comparison in which over 150 different seedstrains were grown out in a greenhouse, the White Russian came out as the strongest plant (22% THC, likely to be the strongest plant known at present!!). .

And;

TGA Subcool Ace of Spades Seeds Specs
Black Cherry Soda X Jack The Ripper
Phenotypes - Line is very similar
Height- Medium height with good stockiness
Yield- Large
Indoor/ Outdoor
Harvest 8 weeks
Sativa/ Indica 30/70
Hybrid- (Black Cherry Soda UNK)xPluton X Purple Haze X Lambsbread X NL X Jack Herer X Romulan X Cindy99BCGA
High type- Strong and hard hitting with fast onset of laughter. Reminds me of some of the first times I got high when I was younger.

Taste/ Smell Like: Skunk, Berry, Sandlewood, Dr Zoggs Blue Sex Wax, Head shops,Lemon

TGA Subcool Ace of Spades Cannabis Seeds Info

This is another hybrid that combines lemon and berry in order to have that sweet and sour taste I like so much. Ace of Spades is also a very large variety with hearty thick heavy flowers. They outer leaves are a vibrant purple to blue with hints of coloring throughout.Many variations are extremely colorful with traces of pink and magenta. The smoke is smooth and soft on the throat with a slight berry and sandlewood flavor. The lemonene is understated but still present. The high comes on fast and strong and is very upbeat almost giddy.The Indica Influence is felt later in the trip and transferes into an overall body stone.
Very powerful medicine

They are presently on an EC of .8, and PH'd at 5.8. I will be using Dutch Masters line on this grow, and so far the results have been awesome! Thanks Forest! Definitely seems to be the nute for LEDs.

Since the addition of the new chiller the temps havent been above 72 degrees, and mostly hang out around 65-68. Because of this the roots are absolutely beautiful. I will get some pics of the before I cant. Lol.

We also have an edition of a new Camera, Seems to be much better quality than my last one, and I have bunch of lenses coming, so I can get my Macro on! Whoop! Whoop! Ok, so on to the pics! Peace. h

Looks like a little nute burn on the tips of that last one but with all of your improvements I think this grow will tell more about the SS's ability. I sure hope you can beat the 1+g/w mark. :D

What kind of camera did you get?

Lol. That last one is lucky to be alive! That was the way it looked when I pulled it from the cloner, after being with no water for at least 24 hrs! The roots were dry! I really didnt think it would come back, and dont think it would have in dirt.

I think with a decent veg, a g per watt can easily be reached. Also the addition of DM nutes has helped tremendously. Every LED grow Ive done so far, Ive had serious issues with Cal/Mag, or should I say lack there of, and now Im using RO water, and No Cal/Mag. Major Difference! As you can see.

I just got a second hand cheapie. Its a Fuji finepix s7000 DSLR. I think when I get used to it, I will be able to take a lot better pics than I was. h

Yeah, plants in hydro react quicker to changes like that than they would in soil. A lot of people panic too quick and chop plants that can be saved. Watch that one turn out to be one of the better plants.

Well, well...if 1gw is THAT easy you could shoot for 1.6+g/w and that would be close to what a 1000w HPS would yield at 1g/w. That would show me. ;)

Fuji has decent optics I think, it beats my cell-cam for sure. :D

Ya, Ive seen plants laying on the ground, not had rain or water for days, and bounced right back in 24hrs. The other thing panic on, that makes me laugh, is people who think a Brown spot is the end of the world. You'd think they were growing Orchids for a show or something.

You know I really just started this project to occupy my free time. I never really care about the whole gram per watt thing. I also have a normal grow, (HPS dirt) that allows me to supply a dispensary with meds, and I was just told that my AJ has made the Seattle Showcase, which is the top 10 strains in Seattle. With this project the idea was to step up the quality even farther, and It seems to be working. Im also getting data that I can apply to my regular grows. So I guess what Im getting at is, Im not concerned about the yield, as much as the quality. I guess that will be good for you, cause I'll post results, good, or bad.

I think they made lenses before they made cameras. They are called "Funon". I do believe once I figure it all out, I should be able to take some pretty nice pics. h

I don't sweat every detail like spots and stuff but I do try to maintain an ideal evironment to push results. I like to watch people mix nutrients and they'll worry about mixing a few drop too much or too little. Just get it close and check it later, adjust if needed but it doesn't have to be an EXACT number on a meter. :D

I was just joking about the g/w deal, it wasn't a serious challenge. Growing is part science and part art and no 2 grows ever turn out exactly the same. ;)

I think they made old 35mm SLRs too...

Lol. Im the same way. I actully just changed my res and was a couple more additives. when I checked the EC it was .6, so I added another splash of grow, and took it to .9. Checked the PH, and it had settled at 5.8. With no "down". these nutes almost make it too easy. Kinda like putting a pizza in the oven, and pulling it out when its done.

Heres a link to the Cam. h

Ok the weekend is here. (Half over for some of you, noon here)

I had to run to the home store this morning, (among other honey do's) and get some bungee cords to hold the plants in. They are already so heavy they want to tip out of there holes. I didnt have this problem last time til several weeks into bud. Then I just tied them to the ceiling.

They have been eating like crazy all week. Every day the gets adjusted to 5.7, and 24hrs later they are at 6.4. EC has dropped by half too. Now they are acting like they should!

This weeks res change consisted of, DM 1 grow, and DM Max grow. I also added "lizard skin", B-52, and a half dose of big bud. EC 1.2, PH'd to 5.7.

As stated earlier, tomorrow they go into 13/11 flower cycle, and the show will begin! Peace. h

Ps. Still learning my lenses, obviously the firs pic was too far away for this lens. Doh! Lol
