Setup1.JPG



Setup consists of a 600 watt hps lamp on a 4 foot light mover, 120 watt reptile lamp for flowering, 12x3 gallon smart pots with fox farm ocean forest soil and using a full line of GH nutrients. Couple fans inside the tent and 6" ducting bringing co2 rich air from the hot water heater. A small heater keeps it constantly 75-80 Degress and 45-55% Humidity.

6 Super Skunk clones from our local dispensary

Added the light mover and 6 Violator Kush Clones to maximize use of space after the Super Skunk had been vegging 10 days

29 Days since we flipped it to 12/12, All the Super Skunks are 27-30 inches tall. 5 Of the Super Skunks were topped once and have 2-4 large colas growing, one we double topped and has 9 smaller tops tops with a lot of bud, probably going to yeild the most.. a massive bush!

The Violator Kush is growing well, all between 18-24 inches tall. We have them boosted up to even out the canopy. Half of the Violators were topped once and have several good tops and half were not topped with a very large main cola.

All the plants have had most of the fan leaves removed to allow light to reach the many many buds on the lower branches, and many of the side branches have been staked to bring them closer to the lamp.

Little update from day 33, this is the Violator Kush and Super Skunk side by side, kush on the left, skunk on the right. The Skunk is completely covered in crystals, while the Kush is still very hairy and growing

This is a bud off the Skunk that we topped twice. This plant has about 15 little tops each of which has a beautiful 2 gram bud on it

Update! Welcome to day 42. The Super Skunk is nearly ready to harvest and looking sticky and delicious. The Violator Kush has slowed its growth and has started to produce trichomes, should be read in a week or so.

These are images of the Violator taken today, day 42

Anyone want to make a prediction on yeild? We would be absolutely thrilled to get 1.6 lbs, we're hoping for 1.3 lbs, and if it's anything less than a pound we'll be disappointed. Just looking at them I'd say a lb is within reach, but I'd love to hear from some people with more experience
