Looking sweet there jassa. Good to see your taking on good advice. The nemetodes work great to kill the larvae of the fungus gnats, I use it too, every 3 weeks they get a drench of it. It really improves yield
. The larvae feed on the new roots and cost more than you realise. You have a nice grow going friend. Reps+.

Thx alot =) If i get advise from good growers, ofc i listen!
Really hope the nemetodes will do their job. Btw, what do u think about 2 first weeks MH or HPS all the way?
upto you.
Some do MH for the first 2 weeks and I've hered people use them for the last 2 weeks also to frost them up. It is also said that it reduces stretch, but I have never used MH myself because they give less light and more heat than an equivalent hps system. I am of the opinion that more is more where light is concerned and would go for hps all the way. What ever you decide its gonna be all good. Keep on doing what your doing, they look great.

Thx man ! And as u said heat is always a problem when u are growing stealth, ill decide this week. Got a brand new HPS bulb just waiting to flower =)
Just hope its a good one, couldnt find my last bulb "sylvania 250w" anywhere in this country!
Well im off to bed, ill update yall later this week on my decision!
Best Brain busting blamingly brilliant weed to you sir! May your consciousness climb to a higher plane where you find a shared oneness with your plants leading to a mutual understanding at a cellular level!

HAHA, well best brain busting blamingly brilliant weed to you to sir!
well jassa you have opened my eyes sir. I too grow in a DR60 and have been thinking of ways to maximize yield in our small tent. After reading this journal and your last one I have decided to probably not do a scrog again. I mean my scrog is going ok this time, but I just don't think it can compare with a harvest from big, free growing plants like yours. I tried 4 big plants in the DR60 when I first got it, but it was all bag seed with just CFL's, they all hermied on me, so I ordered real feminized seeds and got some HPS. I think its time to put my screen away and just grow some monsters like you. and from the looks of it I can cut my veg time in half and get MORE...YOU ROCK jassa! Can't wait to see how this round turns out! happy growing everyone!

Well thx alot hodder
Really nice to have someone with the same setup, and it is small!! And i just realized that you are supposed to have the carbonfilter inside the tent DOOOUGH!!! Always had it outside and blew the air throughout the filter instead of sucking the air trough it, so now its even tighter heheh!
But Back to the scrog vs natural! First of all your scrog was amazing and i think thats the only way to get over 100G on 1 plant but as u say they need almost double the vegtime! On my last grow i averaged 60G per plant, Vegged for 30 days, popcorn not included! So a total of 180G dried and cured, almost 200G with popcorn buds.
So less time and insted more plants =) and seeds arent that expensive, just sell 5g and you are home hehe.
I have 4 plants now but thats almost to tight, but maybe you could do 3 plants and scrog maybe 45 days before bloom? cause ur scrog looks so good hehe =) with your good technique i can almost guarantee you 1g per w!
But ofc it would be fun if you did the same as me so we can compare eachothers a lil bit =)
Switched to 12/12 and HPS today, 30 days vegtime from seedling! Really excited, hope they are all true females, One of the bubble gum already showing pistills and i think i saw one little pistill on the NL before the lights went out! And thank god for my new carbonfilter, really stinks this time!! Think its the northern light!.
WHat strains will u do this time and when will u start???
Hope you understand my horrible english hehe!

Yeah, you and dutch dragon def have the 2x2 grow space down! not sure whether i'll do another scrog or not but next grow i'll def do more plants to cut down on veg time. Its not too bad as I have a little plastic storage tub that I can veg in while the tent finishes, but shorter veg times would still be ideal lol.
My next round will probably be blue mystic by nirvana, but I want to order new seeds soon anyways, really want some OG kush, but they're pricey for feminized seeds lol. I really wanna do a true haze also, happy growing bro!
yay DR60 growers!

NL, Bubble 1 and 2 all showed small girly preflowers! Still waiting for the brainstorm.
The bubble gum is supposed to double in size now, so we will see, they are still smaller then NL and Bstorm.
Guess i just have to wait now hehe.
Still som leaf problems on bubble 1??
All the ladies Just watered NL in the left corner, she looks little droopy the first 10-20 minutes.

Wonderful canopy! High fives too very lovely good work Jassa!
I often use HPS start to finish Jassa mixed with cfL for side/mixed lighting. HPS can stretch younger plants if you do not turn them frequently.
At first keep the light fairly far away till the plants get use to the intensity , if your light has settings use the low settings for first couple weeks and work your way up. HPS all the way is ok but Mh first would be ideal. I stopped using Mh after my bulb popped in half and contaminated my entire house with ozone and mercury..... Threw me off ya know? That is how I started using cfL's...

Looks like I jumped in at the right moment. Your room is going to fill up nicely with buds.

Monday update
Brainstorm is growing pretty fast as usual,needs watere every other day!!! Still no signs of gender :/
The others are growing pretty slow for now! Been 5 days since i watered bubble gums, thinking that a little bit of over watering could be the problems with some of the leaves! Had to water it a little bit early to get my neems in the soil. Gonna let em dry out real good now =) Pot is real light today.
Took som parts from my old tent and built a frame so i can tie my branches wherever i want em to be! Giving the smaller branches as much light as possible.
Heres my branch support!
Think i have to move the filter out of my tente, even though manual says that u destroy the filter if you let air blow directly into the filter.
