All Organic - Multi-Strain - Scrog - 1000 Watt - 2013

[Growguy420]

Hey shottafire, Yea I was thinking that it was a little high but I wasnt sure. So since I dont really plan on lowering it I guess ill just have to veg for a little longer to fill up the screen.

 

[shottafire]

I would try lowering it my brother.

 

[Growguy420]

word i can lower it. How much lower do you think I should go? its at 30 inches above the ground atm

 

[shottafire]

Just lower it enough so that all plants are in the screen but not so much that you damage the plants. be careful I dont want any one to get hurt. but i do want to see a nice flat scrog.

 

[Growguy420]

Okay so I lowered the net today 4 inches. All the plants are about level with the net now. Here are some pictures!

 

[shottafire]

Looks a lot better. And now you will have to decide when you flip I say another week or two max. If you veg too long the screen will only be the plants support and not a nice flat canopy. good luck and I will be watching and trying to help where I can.

 

[Growguy420]

shottafire I really appreciate the help. I see that you have experience and also have a greenthumb , so by all means wherever you see fit to help out please do!

Im planning on buying these nutrients to help out in flowering


Humboldt Nutrients: Honey Organic ES 1 gal.

General Hydroponics: FloraBloom 1 gal

Emerald Triangle: Crystal Burst qt

General Organics: BioThrive Bloom Qt

General Organics: BioBud Qt.

Soul Synthetics: Soul Synthetics Big Swell Qt

FoxFarm: Bushdoctor Sledgehammer, 1 gal

do you have any suggestions on any thing else that would help?

 

[shottafire]

You can make it work with those nutrients. what do you have now? dont want you getting too crazy with the nutrients the more stuff you throw at em in flowerinf the more chances for error. I am more of an organic guy and always will opt to stay away from the harsher non organic stuff.

I need to ask what soil they are in? what size pots? If you know you like these nutrients get them but it looks to be a lot of bloom enhancers and stuff. I would get a good organic base nutrient for bloom, a micro nutrient, and maybe one bloom enhancer.

Keep it simple right now and when you know you like the nutrients you are using get a bigger bottle but you should not need a lot more than a quart right now.

You could always go with the general organics sample box for this grow. I use a few things from them mainly the bio marine cold processed squid, there ca/mg, and there bio root. I like there stuff.

 

[Growguy420]

They are in roots organic soil in 10 gal pots and the only nutes I have used is the roots organic buddha grow. Next week they will get a full dose.

 

[shottafire]

Instead of getting all the other stuff I would look into roots buddha bloom if that is there bloom and a micro I like liquid karma but there is others. And a silica product to help the plants through any heat stress or drought. And a sugar like the humboldt honey or something similar and that would be good.

You are going to have a forest in there bro. I run 9 in five gallons and have been wanting to run in 7gallons and here you are in tens I am watching you closely now.

 

[Growguy420]

A wonderful smelling forest it will be!

 

[Growguy420]

Oh I forgot to mention that after I transplanted into the 10 gal pots I switched the light cycle over to the gas lantern routine.

 

[shottafire]

Cool deal never used it myself.

 

[Growguy420]

yea I'm really liking it and it doesn't seem to be slowing growth at all. Saving money is nice too

the Gen Organics Go Box starter kit may be half the cost or less of all that and the schedule is this

It will finish you through flower and have plenty left.

 

[Growguy420]

Thanks closetorganic yea I grabbed the Go Box and another sort of starter box so I can mess around and see what I like for myself.

Here are the links to everything I bought.

General Hydroponics Go Box Starter Kit - Organic Fertilizer

Botanicare Pureblend Pro Starter Kit

Humboldt Nutrients Royal Flush - Plant Wash

Humboldt Nutrients Honey Organic ES

Advanced Nutrient Nirvana

Flora Bloom Gal and FloraMicro 1 pt

I also order a new light bulb for the flowering phase. Im pretty sure this one has the most output of any hps bulb atm.
Eye Hortilux 1000 Watt Super HPS

 

[shottafire]

Just go easy with them nutrients grow guy. less is more I would be hesitant to use more than three bottles at any given feed.

I know the pureblend products fairly well since I started with them myself.

 

[Growguy420]

Yea I definitely will go easy I just wanted to get a variety of nutrients to see the if there was a difference in production. So for the plants that I have 2 of I will be testing the 2 different starter kits on them.
