This is the group of nine that was transplanted and just started blooming yesterday:

They're around a 600w HPS.

I love that pic.

Looking good! How old are the girls in the veg room?

Around the HPS? Right around 6 weeks total with the first three weeks under fluorescent tubes. Same age as the plants around the 600 in the bloom room. Some grew more vigorously after hitting the OG/OC mix. The seedlings are at 13 and 8 days.

Veg update

They're all growing nicely - right around 2 feet tall and bushy too:

These have only been fed water, Alaska fish or neptune's harvest in addition to what's in the medium.

Wow do they look good. Common denominator with OC+ grows, they're kinda boring if you're looking for problems except bugs... just beautiful healthy plants.

Not that someone with your knowledge and attention to detail wouldn't have beautiful plants Z, but rather a general observation.

 

[Grower Z]

nah i make a lot of mistakes all the time. currently it's having trouble doing as well with the 1k as with the 600w bulbs. I think the current bloomers were too close to the bulb for too long. I was playing around with the environment and the fertilizer (Peters hydro) thinking those were the problems, but it finally dawned on me (way too late, shitty harvest) that the plants were probably too close to the bulb and also too close to each other. and I still can't clone for shit.

I moved an OG/OC Blue Haze from the veg to the 1k bloom circle.

I had to killed on hermaphrodite KC 33 from the OG/OC 600w bloom group - there are now eight left.

Here are two the KC 33 from that group:

These have been watered mostly with AACT, but also plain water.

Hi Grower Z

How did this grow turn out?

We would love to be updated with some pictures and info!

How about posting a 420 Strain Review?

I am moving this to abandoned journals until we get updates.

Thanks and hope all is well in your world!
