Hello all, first off apology's for starting this journal late i just haven't had the time until now also i have another journal up and running DrTentgrows 600w Wardrobe Grow - Power Plant this grow is in a DR240 tent (2.4m x 1.2m x 2.0m) the tent is in a garage and the weather is fairly cold at the moment hence the heater and thermostat, the plants started of in small 1l pots under a 250w cfl then got transplanted in to 11l pots and put under a 600w mh. they have all been topped once and have had a little lst'n they aren't quite as bushy as i would have liked as due to location i can't tend to them as much as i normally would. humidity was a on the low side when we first started this grow so we got a humidifier but humidity seems to be ok without it now. any way here is some pictures.

Newly sprouted, they stretched a little as the light was left to high but nothing to worry about.

This is a shot of them a few weeks old.

And some of lst'n also they have all been topped in these pictures.

Here is the plants at just over 5 weeks from seed.

Check this out, this plant has grown new tops from the stalk that had been topped as well as the 2 it would normally grow i havn't seen this before.

And then a clumsy mistake was made and i accidently pulled on one of the strings that was holding one of the tops down on the same plant and pulled it off it will be interesting to see how this plant turns out.

A few of the leaves look like this but i don't think it's to much to worry about.

Here is where a stalk folded over during lst i have done this before and they heal up just fine, i will put a picture of it healed on my next update.

This is the thermostat with the heater directly wired in to it, it can also control cooling devices. i got it from ebay if any one needs one i can send a link.

Hello all another little update, we only have 4 plants now as some got damaged so i took them out as i didn't want them to turn hermie due to stress and ruin the rest of the crop. the plants are far taller then i would have liked with alot of gap between nodes i'm not really to sure why they havn't gone very bushy as they had been topped and lst'd and had plenty of light. 2 plants that were taking out of this grow room at about a month old and put in a different grow area have now turned into propper bushers! its hard to keep on top of this grow as it is a fair distance from me so i can only tend to them every so often.

Looking good bro, btw i think the damaged leaves might be wind burn! Was the plants that were affected closer to the fan?

 

[DrTentgrow]

Hello ThatBoyDean good to have you back! yeah i know what happened me and my friend had a little move around and forgot to put the fan directly behind the heater like it usualy is so the heater kicked in at lights out with no fan to evenly spread the heat it burned some plants, now we have a dedicated fan for behind the heater and another for the plants, it was kind of a blessing in disguise getting rid of 2 plants becaue we really needed the extra room for a bigger gap between the plants and the heater and also we have to water them inside the tent because the temps are alot different out side because it's in a garage and also more risk of pests if we take them out. i will be doing another update with pics in the next few days.
