Round 2 - Ding Ding - 10 Baby Boom Autos - 1000W MH/HPS

[jimmyclone]

Okay starting Round 2....
Strain is Kannabia seeds baby boom auto x 10
Indica dominant hybrid
Northern lights x blueberry
8*8 tent
1000w mh/hps
GH line nutes- Everyone except the aroma nute, as the weed smells enough and doesn't need any help... But mabe we'll pick it along the way.. Who knows.
Using 3 gal smart pots and promix hp.
Seeds were germed 3 days ago, 1 day in water, 1 day in paper towel and almost a day in the promix..
Im 20/20 on my germ rate so far... Knock on wood..
There still hiding there little heads. Im starting this run in the basement first under a 250w cfl as temps have really dropped here and want them to get a good start b4 being thrown in the tent..
I think i will cut out the extraction fan all together for the first while as i dont want to be sucking in below 0 temps into the tent. There is tons of fresh air Where the tent is located , so it should be fine..
So here we go...

Cheers...
As always any and all suggestions are welcomed and appreciated..

Update #1
All girls are above ground and growing strong. Seem to be growing faster than last run.. Lets hope this stays true.. I first soaked the promix with water ph'd to 5.8 with a little rapid start and a little flora blend. Water is always bubbled for 24hrs. The girls were up about 3 days ago but didn't fully open till yesterday, so we'll call this day 2..

Glad to have you here beast.. My ladies feel much better having you watch over them..

Not much else happening.... The waiting game begins...
Cheers and merry Christmas

Good luck

And a week has passed, they seem to be plugging along pretty well. Getting a little drink of straight water every 3-4 days, ph'd to 5.8 . I might actually order a few more different types of kannabia seeds, im very impressed with there genetics. All sprouted tails at the exact same time and all growth between the 10 seem to be identical. Dont get me wrong the cropking trainwreck is very nice smoke, but the plants grew at very different paces. There is also a great deal on these seeds here is canada.. So on to the pics, not a whole lot happening yet, ill update on topping day.

Cheers everyone

Week 2ish
These pics are a few days old. Seem to be doing ok. Dont see the explosive growth as some do. Wondering if leds actually contribute to faster growth?? Seems it may be.
No way i could top between day 14-18..more like 25ish im thinking.. At least there all in good health and growin at the same pace..

Cheers

Update
Christmas came late for me as the wife has allowed the movement of the tent into an unused room in the basement... Yay... Temps are way too cold to have them in the garage and the humidity is to low in the house.. Now i have complete control of there environment...
2 got topped today and the rest wont be far behind.. Pics to come..

 

[jimmyclone]

Very tight fit for the tent.. Hahaha... Just fit by 2 inches of width... As u can see humidity is still low, but much better than the 13-15% it was outside the tent.. Leaves have perked right up being in there new home..
Cheers and happy new year everyone

 

[jimmyclone]

Update
Girls are doing good, starting preflower and hopefully a little more stretch before the big show. I have been waiting 4 days between waters and feeds, but might bump it up to every 3 days now as they are drying out pretty fast. Anyone with promix or SS#4 and smart pots will know what im talking about.. Might try some soil next run... We'll C.. Got the girls some advance nutrients sensi ph perfect grow and bloom... Will be swithing next feed over to sensi grow 2 part from GH 3 part. I have high alkalinity in my water and i am hoping this will help balance ph in my medium a little better.. Time will tell...
Now to the show..

Some lst'ing goin on. Looks like i may have a little runt just like last run... No where near as bad as the trainwreck runt, but just doesn't look anywhere near as happy as the rest.. Mabe she'll turn around.. Thats all for this week..
Cheers

Ok, soo my ph pen has been drifting badly.. My girls have slowed and almost stopped growing completely for over a week. I was extremely concerned as they just started drooping and withering away.. Went through all my gear and the ph pen was the weakest link.. Went to the hydro shop and bought a good ph pen and some 7ph solution... Well, the new pen was 7.02.... The old pen.... 10.2?????? Really..
So what i thought was a ph of 5.8 was really 3.6.. Extremely acidic... Shitty.. God knows how long its been drifting and ive been watering with acidic water..
I was pissed to say the least.. Please people check, check and recheck your pens..
It has taken a while for me to get the girls back on track, hence the no posts for a while.
I definitely stunted there veg stage and there starting to bloom now.... Well some should be better then none i guess...
On to some good new.. I will be building my own lights.. Yay.. Got 10 vero29 7th gen cobs with heatsinks comin soon... Super excited to build. My own cob panel..
And to celebrate the new light..... Some new seeds for next run....
Brooklyn Sunrise from dutch passion will be next to go in the tent...
Now pic time..

Cheers everyone...
