[Winkster1]

Thanks
Wink
grow was started from seed with no pictures taken untill 2.5 weeks
from seedling if i remember correctly
2 himilayan gold and 1 afgan mafia

 

[Winkster1]

week 2.5 brought about adding nutes to watering system and using distilled water instead of tapwater. after a week brought them to look like these pictures at 3.5 weeks.

Looking great, well done

 

[shaggy_420]

this is a hydro grow right?

do you have any pictures of your grow room
or could you tell us what kind of setup you have there (lights, growing space, nutes, etc)

 

[Winkster1]

closet is 60 X 32 X 8 ft or so.diveded in half leaves me 30 X 32 X 8 ft for veg and same for flowering. Both sections are mylared with veg room having a 250 watt MH bulb and flowering having a 400 watt HPS bulbput the himalayan golds in groddan rockwool and for some reason the afgan mafia was started in peat pot then put in rockwool. the main 3 are now in 8" pots with hydroton.currently using fox farm grow big and big bloom for nutes.was wondering if anyone might know why the afgan mafia is curling top picture of second set of pictures.
ive done lots of reading of the vast information here but would love to have any input or tips that you expert ppl can give
Thanks Wink
Ps the biggest prob ive had to overcome so far is in temperature ..haveing hard time getting temp lower than 90 but by routing the AC into an inline fan it helpede drop temp by 10 degrees so its now runnin 73 - 80.

they're lookin good Wink ;] lets sit and wait, for someone with more knowledge to tell us about the afghan mafia's leaves curling.

If you're treating that plant like all of the others I wouldn't be too concerned about the curling. Nutrients and watering look spot-on since everything is so healthy. Temp control solution was great. A fine looking grow.

hey guys, just stopping by to give a mini update. the afghan mafia still has curling leaves, and is starting to show signs of yellow spots on the leaves and barely around the edges of some, which i beleive is from nutrient burn? not sure.. ive got pictures to take that will arrive tomorow. or maybe later this after noon. but the Two himalaya golds are doing good.. new growth everyday. but the largest of the two (only by about one half inch) is showing yellow spots on the leaves, tiny pinho,le sized ones.. as i said pics will arrive soon. any ideas on what could be happening ? until i get pics up that is? anyway all help is appreciated. and im not highjacking this thread, im winksters son. cheers

 

[VAGUEtrain]

alright guys i got some pics, but theyre horrible, obviously photography is not my forte. anyway i tied, theres bad lighting etc.. but the heats hot and i did what i could.

this set of pictures are the Himalaya gold at 2.5 weeks and the Afghan mafia at 4.5 weeks.

and these two are the big ladies of our Himalaya golds.

Y'all misting those plants,
gettin' water on the leafs at all?

the lights and water drops maybe the holes and
burnin' around the edges(if it ain't NuteBurn),
It can burn right through like a magnifying glass.

Welcome to the BrotherHood
Looks pretty good from here.

well week 5.5 has come and we cut some clones from himalayan golds which should be female as they were feminized seeds we shall see.as we will be puting them under 400 watt HPS 12/12 real soon.
As far as i can tell they are doing well since this is first time tried growing anything; With lots of help from this forum. so Hats off to 420magazine!

well 6.5 weeks down the road brought the 2 17' himalayan gold into the flower room with a 400 watt HPS bulb in an ebb and flow enviroment. Had a few problems regulating input and output of the reservoir but got that fixed.

cut a clone from the afgan mafia so i can stick it under 12/12 to sex it as im hopin it is female and should know soon as it also gives a little more time to add few more inchs before it gets put in flower side.

and finally a pic of where its all happening.

Looking real good man. They look really happy and healthy. Back in the day we always vegged indoors and then they went outdoors for flowering. Now everybody is doing just the opposite...who knows?

 

[Winkster1]

thanks for comments ...to hot here to do anything outside when it usually around 110 for highs

 

[Boss]

No problem man, part of the learning process

Looking pretty good man, just make sure those clones don't get direct hps. They just can't take it yet

 

[Winkster1]

well into 2nd week of flowering under a 400 watt Hps i think everything looks fine. the only problem is that after i took pics the afgan mafia reared its head back and showed his gonads so he quickly was beheaded and tossed.

Wink

Thanks for all the usefull knowledge from all here!

 

[StonyGeoff]

Your grow-room looks totally awesome man, keep up the good work!

 

[shaggy_420]

excelent for flowering

hey guys, third week of flowering here, and a reservoir change. (Btw we have been using tiger bloom, grow big, and cal mag for these initial weeks.) but we started our new Himalayan gold clones on our botanicare nutes. anyway.. we have decided to expand the room, what you can see now, that is flower next to veg, will be all blooming room soon, and we will be framing and wrapping in black/white poly a veg room. im not sure what dimensions for the veg were going to do.. but i was thinking along the lines of 3'x5'-7'x6'-8' as you can tell im undecided on height and length of the room, but im sure it will not need to be anymore than 3' wide. im about to take pics though, and as soon as i do they willl be uploaded. And thanks for all the great comments
