400 watt MH/HPS grow from bag seeds

[Odorous]

ha righteous man! Cheers!

i get caught up in all the technical nonsense sometimes n forget its a weed i swear... =D

 

[BUD08]

LOL i know what you mean. I have done some bigger grows that i dont take pictures of for good reason. But i like doing small grows like this to see what i can make and come up with.

It's like you have this great $500.00 bong but some nights you just want to sit on the floor with alot of crap and try to make your own. I grow meds for a reason but my personal grow is all about fun and trying new things.

I must also say they are some mighty fine WEEDS indead!

 

[Odorous]

haha hell yeah man big grows are cool to watch but that makes sense.. i can definately tell you kno ya shit, thas dope (<-----lol)

you familiar with hydro?? cuz im about to post on my thread sum pics that i think are a problem..

 

[BUD08]

You only use the best when you want the best. Hydro is great and i use it on my big grows. Theres alot to know about how to do a good hydro grow but once you get it down to a science its smooth sailing ever grow after. I give you mad props for giving it a try. You have a very nice set up for a small grow, i think you will do just fine and if anything grows wrong hahaha there are alot of people here how you can ask. The best thing about 420 mag is that people are heard and replyed to in short time. Ima jump to your page i wanna see more pic's.

My joint went out while typing so i figured i would re light and share.Med grow joint: G13 Haze

Whats up every one. Figured i would do an update since it has been a few days.

The girls are doing very well and growing strong and healthy. I have not touched them at all and wont be again till there under the screen. They were fed just before i snaped some shots. I love feeding days. Its so exciting being able to see all the fast growth show up over the night.

The girls will be getting alot larger and stretching very soon, there still doing a bit or healing from all the training that has been done. I have to scrog over them now and have moved the light up to promote stretching of the stock. Im hoping to be able to switch to 12/12 friday but i dont want to bring it on to early. Guess only time will tell.

Any comments or info is always welcome. Thanks for looking and enjoy!

Tiill next time.....

Thanks Odorous, they are doing very well and i couldnt agree more. I love the fact that they are already topped and trained. I cant wait to see the turn out now though.

Weed should grow faster hahaha

Thanks again for stopping by to watch my grow!

 

[CharlieMopps]

Nice grow man. Squat plants, you're gonna scrog them?

 

[BUD08]

Nice grow man. Squat plants, you're gonna scrog them?

Thanks alot CharlieMopps, I plan to do scrog with them very soon but right now the girls are still to short to touch the screen. Im hoping that this friday they will be all ready to go into 24 dark to start my 12/12. I dont want to rush them though as i have already trained them a bit and have also done multi topping.

Scrog screen size 2'x3' with room to expand another foot across. I must say i would be happy to have a full screen that messured 2'x4'. I have alot of bud spots comming up from all the tops, it would make me a very happy pot head!

Bit of an update:
Girls are still growing very fast and doing well. I fed them again tonight (upped the dose) Almost up to full strength. They are all stretching about 1" per day. They also keep getting bushier every day along with new soon to be bud spots.

The ph is at a steady 6.8 (run off from buckets) and im still using Fox Farm Piece of mind along with guano. I will be starting them on big bloom next feeding to get them ready for flowering. I like to get big bloom working slowly and then when its time to flower i will be closer to full strength.

I will be posting more pictures to come very soon.

 

[BUD08]

Im running late for work but dont like to have pictures in my phone so i thought now would be a good time to post some new pictures.

Thanks alot. It seems that all of my heard work and long veg time is starting to pay off. FLOWER time soon!

hell yea they look like some prime ScrOG candidates... +rep if i can

Im always down for a little rep in my journal And yes they should fill the whole screen now. Im still not sure what i have for girls in there though, so lets just hope that i get 2 out of 3 but then again 3 for 3 wouldnt be bad either only time will tell.

lol plants are lookin great man.. i hope i can get mine bushy like that haa speakin of crappy jobs, im on my way to an interview right now :/ jooyy!!!

Thanks man! I didnt expect every thing that i put them through to work out as well as they are but i must say in over joyed with how they are coming along. I took a bud spot count today and if all 3 are girls i will have 36 flower spots all together. Yeah my crap job is at kame apart lol


Thanks alot for tuning in all and i also ordered a new hortilux eye HPS should be here the end of the week or the start of nest week. Either way is fine theres nothing wrong with more grow time when scroging!

Any info or concerns are always welcome!!

 

[BUD08]

Good news!!! The girls have been doing alot of growing and i have them where i want them to strat my flower period. There still a bit small but i have no concerns that they will have no problem growing triple the size they are now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lady 7 = 29 day veg topped 2 times per branch 12" tall, Top count 20

Lady 5 = 29 day veg topped 2 times per branch 10" tall, Top count 20

Lady 1 = 29 day veg topped 1 time every branch 7" tall, Top count 12

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

lady 7 = 31 day veg 13.5" tall, 24 bud spots

Lady 5 = 31 day Veg 11" tall, 22 bud spots

Lady 1 = 31 day veg 8 1/4" tall, 16 bud spots

Here come some !!big bushes!! Small plant can have big buds....watch and see! No little beaner buds for me this has helped me to yeild alot in a small space in the past. I still do it in my med room and no matter the size of the plants the buds seem to get just as big.



The new Hortilux Eye HPS (400w) was also put in today for 6 hours before the lights went out for 24. They went to sleep at 7pm tonight and wont be awake again until 7pm sunday night. The lights will then be ON at 7pm and OFF at 7am (lower temps at night....somethimes).

Also had them tied down over night to allow for the smaller bud spots to come up. Im now up to 58 bud spots and 4 main tops per plant. They were fed just as the lights were coming on this morning.

I will now start to use my Big Bloom on the next feeding along with Guano and Piece Of Mind also going to stop the use of the neem once i start to see bud spots begining to mature. I will be going back to using a bit less Piece Of Mind because the girls will no longer need as much of those nutes. Im hoping to get the girls up to double strength on the Big Bloom for the final feeding in 2 months.

Ph is still at 6.4 in the run off from the pots. Feeding is being done every 3 days on a wet dry cycle. I have also get them to full strength on guano of 5Tbls per plant. With the Piece of Mind they are getting a 1/2cup every 3 days. Girls are up to 3/4 of a gal of water every feeding. Started also using fish tank (Organic, and also works well for plants, pets, ect) water purifier to get rid of imperiotys in the tap water. I like tap water because it still has alot of good minerals in it that can help the plants grow. I just have to mess with it alot to get it how i want it. Kinda like making your own water. Best way i have found to do it is to use a small stil set up, but only use it for water not booz lol. works great from me and i always trust my water to be perfect.

I think thats about it other then just keeping there under growth clean along with picking of small branches that wernt getting light and dying. I only trim whats dead and what i need out of the way. There is no need to trim there bush...hell the bigger the bush she has the better. Hot damn

Last but not least here are some final veg pictures before the lights went out. Also took some of the bulbs. Sorry that the pictures arent real clear my camera hates HPS lights for some reason. Enjoy

New Camera ordered!

Thanks alot doctor, i have had such good resoults with the hortilux eye for flowering. Its all i use in my med room, I still find that the standard MH works just fine though. Im excited for the weeks to come. And i hope i give you something good to watch while eating the great looking pop corn. GREAT NOW I HAVE THE MUNCHYS HaHaHaHaHa

man those plants are so sick dudE!! helllll yeah!
cant wait to get my hps =D

Thanks alot odorous, the HID bulbs are so worth the money. I tried doing a cfl grow and i hated it when it was done i got an ok yeild and it smoked very well but it took so long and i know that the thc levels could have been better with MH/HPS.

More pictures coming in the next couple of days! thanks again to avery one that has been looking in. gets kinda lame when theres nothing new to read or talk about.
