med-man brand grow rooms/ production sites

























































































































































































the blue deez got it worst out of the 2 kinds. but still grew med grade tops.....
a typical coffee kush top.......
mmmmmm purple chunks ahoy.........
for what its worth with all the issues the coffee kush grew some awesome chunks of purple buds that smell like freshly ground coffe beans x kush hash.....
heres a couple blueberry diesels. from the same room with the same issues. still put out beautifully coated buds. over 1 pound
this is a over 1 pound coffee kush plant. it suffered floods, droughts, cal mag and nute deficiency, powdery mildew and mites. but still grew monster med grade colas.
from left to right: coffee kush, mapleberry and blue diesel.....
blueberry diesel, one of the best tree plants. it has spacey nodes and grows rock hard fuely blue buds. not much leaf or popcorn as light easily penetrates the canopy........
my coffe kush clone can out veg sativas any day of the week, and yields massive........this is 6 weeks in veg, over 5 feet tall already do the math lol.......
a perfect mapleberry specimen. she is a monster producer of sweet blueberry, trichome coated colas.........
the trees are coffee kush, blue diesel and mapleberry, at about 6 weeks old.......
pk preveging........a couple weeks old.......
here they are first day of flower. these guys felt some nute and heat issues from the veg room, which is dialed now..........
these are some mapleberry and coffee kush 1 weeks to being flowered........
im in the midst of converting a 5 room dirt grow to hydro. expert dirt growers always prefer hydro to soil once its dialed, which isnt hard to do. these are og kush on the left in the first phase and purple kush on the right........this is the 3 stage veg room.....
this is my non-prifit breeding prigram for the community. back left is a green giant, front left is an island sweet skunk, the next row from left is 2 female ultra kushes and on male, in the tray are chronics, og kush(la kush), and my own strain indikind, and furthest right is one afgahni kush and two purple kushes:)
they are started in in 5 gal grow bags or pots then transplanted at 2 feet to 20 gallon pots

the plan is to let each plant take up a 4 by 4 by 4 area


plants are grown in 20 gallon pots and should be 5-10 feet tall when ripe



this is 1/4 of a 120 plant/120 light medical grow




og kush is by far one of my all time favortie strains. LA'S finest og kush produces rock hard pop corn nuggets that have the usual kush smell with a strong piney undertone. the high is more cerebral then the purple kush due to the fact it does have some sative in it from the infamous chem dawg family. this high is immediate and long lasting and extremely powerful. one of the strongest highs and tastiest herbs on the planet. where is this strain at the cannabis cup? sorry arjan, but this specimen would probably dominate like the northern lights used to if entered. the taste is exactly like the smell- kush times pine cones:)






this is the middle 1/3 of the space






this is the right 1/3 of the room







here are the same og kush 4 weeks later. this is the left 1/3 of the room


















the closet ( pictured below) is cooled by a 100 dollar danby "window banger" air conditioner, which sits on the floor next to the closet on a styrofaom sheet,via a fitted 4 inch duct which enters at the lowest point in the grow room. hot air is sucked out of the highest point in the doorway (pictured above). temp is at a constant 40% humidity and 76 degrees Fahrenheit. optimal conditions for a perfect grow. with my advice the intake was dropped to the floor and duct shortened as much as possible to maximise vortex air flow and electricity used by the ac.










this is the other half of the walk-in closet.this these ladies were a bit shorter on average so they are getting 3 consecutive days of light instead of 12hr shifts from their lamp before flowering to give em an extra boost. the feeding program is my o.g. (original grower) advanced nutrients program.











this is one half of of roughly a 4ft by 8 ft walk-in closet. and in it is L.A.'s finest: the o.g. kush. the plants are two weeks old, illuminated by 2 600w digital hps chrome dome bulbs(90,000 initial lumen's!) and ready to be flipped into flowering. the grower took his time veging by leaving only one light on at a time for 12 hrs with the bulbs 5 feet away. when you allow plants more then enough time and everything they need in it, it truly shows in their health and vigour. these ladies were picture perfect. master secret- always take your time!!! haste makes for waste!!!!












this producer is seconding as a veg/mother room. from left to right- great white shark, the middle prop tray is vegging chronic, green giant and white widow, white widow and finally the infamous island sweet skunk. every row (3 plants deep) can easily produce 50 cuttings a week without c02. so the whole box with all rows filled can easily produce 300 a week . on average a rooted clone in a 3 inch cube can go for 10-20 bucks in the medical community. i'll bet with gas and a full box, 500 cuttings can be taken a week. i'll let you do the math. mothers are so strong and recover so fast in hydroponic systems!!! to save energy this box runs the hps for 12 hours and the 200 watt sunblaster compact fluorescent, form future harvest development, the other 12 hours.













hydroponic white diesel from sensi seeds on the left and cali's legendary purple kush on the right














more pk















hydroponic purple kush under 600w bulbs
















with hydroponics and co2 it isnt uncommon to see fully dense flowers after 2 weeks of flowering

















notice if you can how strong and dense these secondary branches are


















this 4 by 8 foot table is packed with branches stretching to the light. the key to great yields is maximising every square milimeter of your grow space.



















these green cracks are just 17 days into flower




















this last shelf is days away from boxing and distribution





















this is the room next door. the left shelf is incubating, the right one is rooting






















here are more moms, cuttings will be taken in 2-3 days























ther are purple kush, a-k, renne and sweet skunk in this classic bc mother room
























here stand 3 white widow, 2 green giant and 4 chronic mothers, and 1 old school sweet skunk

























just one ikea shelf and 6 1 ft t-5 sunblasters can easily manage up t0 12 prop trays and any stage of germinating seeds, rooting clones, vegging clones and seedlings . pictured here is (from bottom to top) "oasis" seeds sprouting,afgahn/kush clones rooting, "chronic" clones veging at 10 days, "green giant" clones at 20 days, an empty area and finally some great white shark seeds on the left and island sweet skunks on the right. this tiny set up can easily ensure the grower a constant and consistent flow of medical grade marijuana strains and control over culling out any weaker specimens effectively and dramatically increasing yield and quality!!!


























this retail outlet offers discounts and deals to any card holders



























trimeters are an invaluable tool when growing medical grade cannabis




























green giants, great white sharks, Hawaiians and white russians






























8 1000 infinity digital ballasts. their lightweight, no noise, 60 sec firing time and extreme brightness makes electric ballasts the wave of the future































always use digital co2 regulators for optimal yields






























a perfect 'green giant' clone, just waiting to be transplanted































pk harvest day

































pk 1 week into flower


































coco peat i find is superior to traditional peat pucks, and earth friendly



































the same 1 ounce nug on harvest day



































day 42 pk







































day 28 pk





































this pk nug weighed an ounce






































more pk







































numerous friends and associates(marc emery included) said that this batch of the legendary purple kush was some of the finest medicine they'd ever smoked. this plant alone weighed 6 ounces.










































this was the biggest plant in the garden. always take the biggest plant and multiply its weight times the number of plants and that will give you a realistic yield potential to shoot for next time.









































same basket a week later












































double click this photo to get a better look at how strong and thick the microscopic root hairs are











































2nd week of flowering, it was half the size a week earlier














































the roots have quadrupled in mass in just 7 days














































this is another photo taken 1 week into flowering















































after 1 week of veg and one week of flowering this root mass is well on its way. the red colour was caused by advanced nutrients bud blood.















































this is the same basket only 7 days later

















































above: 7 weeks later and 2lb is ready to be harvested and replanted. 7 crops a year . 14 lb/2000w/year with time to take a vacation as well.


















































above: 50 legends ultimate indicas work well at 4 by 8 table under 2 1000w hps



















































mothers from left to right-white widow,green giant,northern lights #5, Hawaiian indica,afghooey and chronic



hydrogen peroxide can triple and quadruple root mass






























































































































































































































































































































white widow



white widow




















































white widow




























































white widow


















































































































white widow








at 6 weeks, this white widow nug and its leaves are coated with tall standing trichomes, 3 more weeks until they fully swell and achieve a truly unique bouquet
























































































































these white widows vegged too long so they grew into the glass, at that intensity colas can never truly ripen to there fullest potential






























































this monster hempstar bud grew too tall also, burning its leaves, stretching its colas and underdeveloping resin


































































the two plants front left are purple kush, the remaining plants are el nino. mixing strains in the boxes tend to effect yield negatively


































































plants with too much sativa cannot be given vegg time. the plants on the right had to be cut in half 3 times before they stoppd stretching. this is a waste of time, money and medicine. though some of this batch still netted some world class cannabis



































































roots should have the same colour as your nutrients solution and be thick and strong,



































































purple kush








































































this green crack actually has more purple then purple kush at harvest



































































this box has 9 purple kush and 9 green crack









































































here are some happy hawaiian and chronic bushes 3 days to flipping the lights to 12/12

the tallest plant in the garden, back left, is a green giant, a superior clone ive grown for the last 4 years. its thick branches and leaves, vigorous growth and monster colas(even on the side branches) and a resin content which rivals white widow make it a perfect specimen for medicine and cash croppers alike. its already twice the size of all the other plants!








































































chronic, hawaiian and afgooey







































































this was a medical system using popular commercial lighting methods in bc. i still recomend adjustawing or bell lr 1000 for medical setups for optimal use of light and space




this is purple kush 15 days to harvest(hydroponic)





































































this is more purple kush, 10 days to harvest
(hydroponic)













































































these roots covered 2 square feet with help from advanced nutrients and hydrogen peroxide







































































this foto was taken after 2 wks of flowering and 1 week of veg














































































hundreds if not thousands of medical cuttings can be rooted in a small location using shelving to maximize space















































































the grower in this medical grow in mission bc really neglected his garden resulting in powdery mildew which stunted growth which lowered yield and quality. never the less the system i created still netted some monster buds, they were just a fraction of their potential














































































gently twisting and bending stalks will easily double a plants size and strength


















































































the one plant directly in front of the blue ox co2 generator should have wieghed over 225g, but neglect resulted in it being around 90g

















































































these are all female seeds i bred in manitoba in the 90's their pedigree is haze, juicy fruit, white widow, hawaiian, northern lights and a strange plant grown for years outdoors in mb which provided the pollen



















































































this grow was created by the grower on my design via phone and internet


















































































this og kush took 8 weeks and netted almost 8 pounds from 6 600w digital lumatek ballasts, ajustawing reflectors and hrtilux bulbs 10 lb could have been create dif the cuttings were all equal in vigour when purchased





















































































more og kush 14 days to harvest




















































































this was an experimental sea of green hydroponic set up, legends ultamate indica was the variety, unfortunatly the plants were vegged more then 3 days and grew to tall to aloow any light to pentrate the canopy






















































































veg babies under flourscents 2-4 weeks before harvest so they can be flowered immediatly in any set up you use
























































































more purple kush 10 days to harvest

  1. hi there nice grows...i was wonderin wid da og kush grow (6x600w) the yield was 8pounds and u said it can be 10....but with the pueple kush bed grow u said 2x7 grows which is only 14 pounds per year...it seems that u get more than a pound with the og kush even though its a 600w vs the pk under 1000w...

    second thing is in the hydro beds how does the drainage work? and are the net baskets witting in only white poly? I was thinking of the same bed idea with aeroponic tubes 5 per bed with sprinklers in them....

  2. actually my friend, digital 600w ballasts and hi end lamps are as bright if not brighter then 1000w setups for half the heat and half the power. those 600w were used with adjustawing reflectors and light spreaders. the light spreaders allow 600w to be placed sometimes as close as 12 inches to the canopy, delivering 3 times the total amount of light the a 1000w at 24 inches. i dont remember any pk "bed" in my blog:)

    in my feng shui"water fall" system< the tables are sloped over a resovoir where the drain hole is placed, so all the solution drains to the lowest corner, they were all assembled with supplies from a hardware store, avoiding any heaty"hydro stores" which alot of people avoid in smalltown canada and especially in the us. i myself wanted to toy with aero in these tables but the headaches that could be involved made it not woth the experiment to me, maybe one day soon il giver a go, if you do< please send me pics to growyourownmedicine@hotmail.com:)

  5. woah!!!!! amazing work. love the pictures of the roots. never seen cannabis roots before. they're kind of scary looking in this jayce and the wheeled warriors kind of way.

  6. I then began discussions with attorney Larry Davis (who was so important within the drafting and formulation of those changes to the law) and, at his suggestion, we should always remove the "zero tolerance" statute and replace it with a separate, non-DUI related statute under a replacement section entitled "Driving with Drugs in System" that might be designated as 625 ILCS 5/11-508, a category B misdemeanor, that might not be associated with DUI but would still be a criminal offense promoting intolerance while driving vehicles.
