Lukebro's 1st Grow From Bagseed

[lukebro]

Would be honored I hate the lights off period because I can't check on the babies

Yea i find myself setting with mine for hours sometimes lol.

Update time!
They're all doing really well in their new pots. I've been doing some lst but kinda nervous to top them idk why haha. I added some cal mag to them but other than that they've been using the soil from the transplant

Give me suggestions if you have any. Such a noob at this.

 

[lukebro]

Anyone have any advice on when to flower?

Stay high my friends

The age-old question! If you wait longer your yield will be bigger~ someone else said "the more tops the better" and I'd have to concur!

Thanks vesp <3 I have one 300 watt led, a 50w led bulb, 2 t12 rods and a cfl. It's kind of a ratchet setup but it's working. Do you think I need more light for flowering?

looking good Luke, I would try to get those T12 more on the side, and out of the way, it looks like it is blocking the LED some...

questions:
how far away is your LED?
why the three in one bucket?
what do you have for drainage in that big bucket?

Good idea boom I'll try that when I get home today. My LED is about 24" away. My manufacturers recommend 32 veg but that's just too far for me. And I have 3 in the bucket because I figured at least 2 of these babies are guys so it will clear up my space a little. Still kinda dumb though I agree lol. And I drilled a bunch of holes on the bottom and a few on the sides. Next grow I'll go smart pots.

Any thoughts on if I need more light for flower? I'm on a tight budget right now is the problem.

 

[BoomShakalaka]

what is the size of the space you are in? did you get the mylar up? what LED do you have? you make do with what you have, and over time, reinvest the $$$ you save by growing your own.

 

[lukebro]

It's a closet but just maybe 2 feet back and 4 ft wide. It's a 300w led actually draw of 150. Plus a cfl, a led 50w bulb and the tubes.

 

[BoomShakalaka]

2x4?, if you can, a 2nd 300 would do you well, but if not, then that's ok too

Is 24" too far way boom? I see everyone saying they go 12-18" but my manufacturer recommends 48" in seedling, 36 for veg and 24 for flower. So maybe they're just talking about plants that are more sensitive to light burn??

 

[BoomShakalaka]

IDK, I stunted mine by putting too close, so I keep mine pretty far away. kinda scared to put them back close

 

[lukebro]

Hey y'all. So I flipped to flower but my roomie just said that the lights were on when he woke up. Will this cause hermies? I flipped yesterday

 

[lukebro]

Hi guys and gals! Out of my five babies there is one who's sex I can positively tell and it's a girl! Yay! Now just to wait for the others happy growing!

 

[lukebro]

Update pics; the plant in the middle of the 20 gallon is the lady.

That last one is the one I think is a male. And this is a shot (a bad one at that) of the pistols.

 

[vespertine]

Yay for the girl... boo on the bawlz~
