Smart Pot-Chem 4 grow by Yarddog

Cali Connection Chem Valley Kush Reg popped the ground. I hope its a female...and if it is a male that is ok too. Im sure whatever I cross the pollen with would probably make a good cross.
 
Looked it up and indeed found it.
I wanted to do a SOG grow after the one i'm doing now. But i have 60cm*60cm tent, so limited space, and can't find any info about the size of the pots. It says its 3 gallons but nothing on how tall, long it is.

3 gallon measures around 11" wide by 9" tall :thumb: hope that helps!
 
Looking to get a grow tent for my a basement corner and I can vent the exhaust heat right into my sewer pipe or right out my back yard through the dryer vent. It is so perfect! All I need is the tent. One that is about 4' by 4' by 7' should do the trick. For light I want to use 2 x 600 bare bulb CMH bulbs or Hortilux 1000s with a reflector, not sure yet. Also a few T5 strips for the sides to get those side buds really going.
 
Well if u need a tent would certainly recommend secret jardin.
Haven't heard any bad things about it and i'm using myself now and don't have any complaints.
+ they just came out with a new edition of their tents with 95% light reflection.
 
Well in my honest opinion Smart Pots flat out work.

After I put the first clone into the flower tent she took off in growth. She grew almost 16" in 18 days! In the last few day growth has slowed dramatically as far as height. Today marks day 20 of flower, been feeding gently and watching her closely.

There are trichs showing up on the inner leaves of flower points, and I can't get over the size of her white pistols. Everything seems jumbo sized with this Chem 4, from its leaves and stalk, to its early flowers.

26" as of early today

looks nice ^^
How old is the other plant ? looks alot smaller

Thanks Sana. The other plant is the same age, both clones where brought home at the same time. Its smaller due to a couple of things. The larger one has been in flower for 21 days giving it time to respond to the switch and take off in growth. The smaller one is only 10 days into flower.
The biggest reason for the size difference is that I did a little lst'ing to the smaller plant after I took 6 clones from her. Basically I'm trying to get a good idea of what I need to do to grow out 2 plants in my tent comfortably.
 
Those plants have come a long way. They look very similar to a clone I got marked "Lemon Diesel". It has the most distinct lemon pledge smell I have grown so far. Today I smoked a joint of Chem Dawg and was reminded why I love it so much. Great taste and a really relaxing, pleasant high that doesn't make your mind race. I wasn't sitting there analyzing the high like with some bud I have smoked recently. Chem Dawg just suits me every which way possible. The lemon Diesel plant I got was a clone from the dispensary. It was sitting by a wireless router and I think the LED on the back made it go hermie because I spotted a banana the other day and now she has a few seeds growing. I will save these hermie lemon diesel seeds and sprout them. Hopefully I get the same thing again because it is the best clone I got and just smells amazing.
 
Looks frosty :d

Thanks Sana, pics don't show how white things are. Really happy with the genetics of these clones.

Yeah they took off like rockets in flower, the plant on the right almost got too big for my tent. Lemon Diesel sounds great! Been meaning to ask you...if you don't mind, where do you order your seeds from? Seems like you get some good strains. I agree about the Chemdowg, great smoke. I love anything OG Kush or Sour D related so I can't wait for the end result here. I squeeze a flower and my sticky fingers smells so sweet and piney just like some great OG. On a side note, I scored a seed from an eighth of true 707 Headband, only seed in the sack and its a beauty!
 
I order my seeds from The Single Seed Center and also the Attitude Seedbank. I cannot get chem dawg clones around here, although the local dispensaries are happy to sell the dried buds which is not cool. I went to the dispensary today and bought an 1/8 of OG Kush and a couple joints of Chem dawg #4, they also kicked me down with a huge nug of Chem Dawg for free too which was really cool. The reason I went there was yesterday I harvested a few plants and so I needed to get six clones. I ended up getting 2 OG Kush clones, 2 Frankenberry (crazy purple strain like nothing I've ever seen), and 2 Mazar-i-Sharif clones. I planted them all in the new 3 gallon Smart Pots that have built in cloth handles that make it easier to carry. Altogether, along with those six plants I am also growing a Chem Dawg#4 x OG and a Chem Valley Kush that I am growing from seed along with Purple Kush and Afghan Kush I grew from seed. I am trying to get a fair amount of plants up to around 4 months old so I can have some decent mother plants, and don't have to keep wasting my money buying more seeds and clones. I might go back to the dispensary tomorrow. They had 2 Purple Urkle clones left. I grew two plants in October and got a huge yield of really dank grape tasting purple bud like you wouldn't believe.

Thanks Growing, I'll check them out. There are a lot of strains here that I wish I could grow as well, but they keep a good lock on them. I got lucky and scored a true 707 Headband seed from a nug out of an eighth of medicine from a co-op here...so hope is alive bro, maybe you'll get lucky and pull a seed. The Chem 4 clones are available from time to time here but I never see it on the board at the dispensary.

Plants are looking beautiful so far cant wait ti see how they progress.

Thanks RockGrower, appreciate the kind words.

I will get an update posted soon. The further along of the two is only 25 days away from harvest.
 
Looking over your tent grow and I am impressed. Your transition to the Smart Pot guild is now complete. Welcome to the dark side! :cool: If you are planning on buying seeds off the internet the only advise I can give you is be careful and be very deliberate with what you are doing. If you don't have a PO BOX get 1 and have all you seeds sent there. If you're buying a 10 pack of seeds you're looking at spending at least a hundred. Unless they are feminized there could be a lot of males in there. I like buying regular seeds because they are cheaper. Germinating seeds is really nerve wracking in my opinion. For example, I ordered up some Blackberry seeds. I ordered 2 of them from Single Seed. 1 germinated so fast it almost jumped out of the root riot tray. No joke, it had leaves quickly and was very viable let's put it that way. The other blackberry seed, which was in a root riot cube right next to the other seed sat there...and sat there some more and never even grew a tap root. So, I couldn't really complain to Single Seed Center and say hey send me another seed, one was a dud because they sell seeds in the UK for "novelty" purposes. Basically, they sell seeds, but not to be grown if that makes sense in this bizarre grey area world of marijuana law, seed companies and all this stuff going on in the world we live in? My point being, if you have the time and the money and the patience to order seeds from overseas and then have them either be male, or not germinate at all, and that bothers you, than buying seeds is not for you. If not, go with clones, especially if you live on the west coast because nearly every dispensary has a fresh supply of clones. Same thing with clones though. You get a clone in a Dixie cup and you have no idea if its going to be a good plant or some bullsh*t. It's kind of hard to tell when the plant is 4" tall ya know. Also, sometimes people lie or mislabel clones so you gotta be careful there too. I brave the pitfalls of buying seeds for 1 reason. I like to bring new genetics into town. I don't mind getting males. I harvest the pollen and use it for breeding experiments. I don't automatically kill males as soon as they are identified. I never understood why people do that. You can isolate males easily and harvest the pollen. Say you get a strain you really like but its clone only like PURPLE URKLE for example. Why not take a clone of a clone you really want to keep, pollinate it with your male pollen and see what comes out. Might be something good. We get really really good pot on the west coast but even with all these great strains you still want to try something fresh and new and exotic. A lot of these strains come from places we would normally never get to go and sample the local strains so internet seeds is a great thing. Just be careful who you order from. Single Seed has always come through for me, and so has the Attitude. Other than those 2 sites I haven't ordered from anyone else. Nor would I see why you would need to. They have enough strains between those 2 sites to last a life time. I tell ya though, when they start selling Chem Dawg #4 clones around here is the day I stop ordering seeds off the internet. :cool:
 
Oi! nice plants. I'm glad to see those 3 gallon smart pots are working for you, I just bought five and I can't wait to use them. I was thinking 5 gal was more ideal but you jus can't argue with those last pics man, beautiful:bravo:

Thanks Hydrogrown! I use the 3 gallons for two reasons. The most important thing is my lack of space. Secondly it allows me to control feeding and flushing by having to water more often.

With that being said I'm said to say I had to chop both plants down. I had powder mold showing up on the younger of the two. It got covered with a garbage bag and cut. The older plant was cut 7 days prior to day 70, a little too early but I didn't want to loose both plants.

Buds are jar curing now and look great. I have smoke tested (patience is something I lack when it comes to trying my homegrown) and am very happy with the results.

I will use Smart Pots in any dirt grow from now on. I was literally seeing 1"+ of growth a day.
