Veg Nutrients: Fox Farms Grow Big - 2tsp / Gal. (Moving up to 3tsp/Gal)
Flower Nutrients: FF Tiger Bloom, FF Big Bloom, AN Big Bud, AN Bud Candy
- Not sure how mixing FF w/ AN will work out, don't want to burn the plants, any ideas are much appreciated.

Still Need:
2x 6" Fans for general airflow
Ducting - For Hood used in Flowering

Strains:
2x Blue Knight (Blueberry x Kryptonite) or (Blue Dragon x Kryptonite)

- Current State: ~3 Weeks Veg

2x Chernobyl (Blood Wreck x Jack the Ripper)

2x Skywalker OG x XJ-13
- XJ-13: (Jack Herer x G13 Haze)

- Current State: Germinated 6/25/15

2x Pink Kush (The Purps x OG Kush)
- Clones from local dispensary
- Indica
- Flower Time: ~11 Weeks
- Current State: ~1 Week of Veg

Current Tent Conditions:
Temperature: ~81 deg. (Drop to ~75 at night)
Humidity: ~35-40% (Raise to ~50-60 at night)
Light Schedule (Veg): 18-6 (Lights On @ 6AM)
Water/Nutrient PH: ~7

Watering:
Wait til top 1-1.5" of soil is dry and pot feels light
Water til there is about a 15% runoff (to ensure there isn't an excessive buildup of salts)
Only use nutrients every other watering

Plan of Attack:
1. Veg entire tent until the smallest plants (XJ-13 from Seed) are biggest enough to flip the switch to 12-12. From this point (6/30) I am going to wait about 3-3.5 weeks and let the ladies grow.
2. Continue to LST, FIM and other BDSM plant training techniques

Harvest Requirements:
~50-70% of Hairs have darkened and curled in
Most of trichomes are cloudy

How I rigged my lights up, used 550 paracord to make loops to hook ratchet ropes onto.

Week 2 - Blue Knight and Chernobyl growing like crazy, the 2 sad plants are Pink Kush, I took some random guys advice and put freshly rooted clones into 1 gal pots :confused: so now that they're finally rooted in the 1 gal they are beginning to grow.

Any comments, questions, concerns are most welcome! Pull up a lawn chair or bean bag and let's watch these beautiful girls grow.

BTW, this is my first grow :)

EDIT: Pics added
 
Hope all is well in your world.

Is this grow still alive?

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

How about posting a 420 Strain Review?

If you need any help with posting photos, please read our Photo Gallery Tutorial.

I am moving this to Abandoned Journals until we get updates.

Sending you lots of love and positive energy.

Day 1 - Flowering, flipped the lights today

IMAG2136.jpg

Cut 24 clones from 6 plants, I need some more practice on this, I kept cutting the stems too short

Day 9 - Flowering

IMAG21851.jpg

Day 9 - Flowering

IMAG2200.jpg

Transplanted the clones, 23 total

IMAG2201.jpg

Day 13 - Flowering - Trimmed some lower secondary bud sites as well as some fan leaves to reveal lower bud sites.

IMAG2202.jpg

Day 13 - Flowering - The Blue Knight is really taking off, its gonna be a super fast finisher, compared to the others it has many white hairs and starting to form buds.

Current Plants:
1x XJ-13 in 1 gal.
2x Blue Knight in 3 gal.
2x Chernobyl in 3 gal.
2x Pink Kush in 5 gal.
 
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, should I trim more fan leaves? It still looks like a dense jungle in there. Should I remove most if not all lower budsites so the plant can concentrate on top sexy buds?
 
Hope all is well in your world.
