Just wanting some opinions 1st time grower

[RichRich]

This is a first time growers garden just thought I would post some pictures and see what all you guys have to say about it. I have been a member for a couple months now, but this is my first post.

These were taken from a mother they were in veg for 8 weeks and have been in bloom for 10 days.

Grown with a 432w t5 fluorescent (6500k temp) for the first 7 weeks and then a 324w t5 fluorescent was added and bloom bulbs (2900k temp) were put in when switched to 12/12

Looks like they're blooming nicely for 10 days. T5's work good. I still use them for veg.

Wowzers, you seem to be doing quite well judging from the number, size, and health of your plants for your first grow!

Awesome brahskie!!

[McToker]

I'm gonna have to concur with the others. Looking real nice for 10 days.:thumbsup:

Do you know what strain they are?

Im not real sure....I asked but the person I got them from wasn't real sure...He said he thinks they are a cross breed between Northern Lights and something else....They are def indica though...he had some sativa but I didnt get any, those will be next

RichRich, it looks like you got your name from your plants. And, there's no way I'd have been able to tell you were a first time grower without you having told me - I'm still not sure I believe you. You've certainly got a green thumb, and have treated all of these ladies with great care. Keep up the fantastic work!

Thanks alot....I have went the extra mile to make sure everything went as it was supposed to. I have done ALOT of reading and watching videos.

I never really said much about my grow room. I think I have a pretty good setup. I have mylar lined on the walls, then 6 mil plastic, then 8 inches of insulation then cement to prevent most or all IR threats....I have the heat (and smell) running first through a carbon scrubber then through a heat exchanger so little to no heat is vented outside.....My room is about 60 degrees when lights out and 75 when lights on.

I have 12 plants right now and they are VERY bushy I raised my lights a little to see if I could get a little more stretch out of them....MORE UPDATES LATER

I think you made a good choice with the lights!:thumbsup: 75 degrees when running is PERFECT!!!! First time too... Dayam! Doin' a Great job! Your room looks as if it's about the same size as mine. Wish ya the best luck!

Ga Grown!

R2, let me know if you've got some time to build me a grow room. Dang! Sounds like you put much time and effort into planning that room - and, it's going to be paying some dividends in another month or so, eh?

[RichRich]

Yea I am always willing to help....Yea I am hoping they will be ready in about a month maybe as much as a month and a half.

I still have a few more things I need to do to the room though....mainly cosmetic but I still got some more work to do nonetheless

Um, no.

Rich ~ Your plants are looking GREAT!!!:thumbsup: They look very healthy. Speaking of which, what nutes are you using?

Love the sugar shots.:D Very frosty, indeed.:jointsmile:

[RichRich]

I was using maxigrow for veg and maxibloom for flowering made by General Hydroponics.....I wasnt real sure which kind to use but this is what to local shop recommended. I think next time I wanna go a little more organic.

first question. lol
second question.
Were you wild growing male marijuana plants before this?? ha because that them plants looks stella man. So for real, where does your g thumb come from? I am assuming for now. That you are a well educated outdoor seed processor and hybrid breeder for now. Them look amazing. i want those seeds!?! Anyways would love some macros anytime to your cut :) well gl with it all:):)
PEaCE
:hippy::stoned::jointsmile:

when you did your nutes how did you go about it for your first time?

Care to give to dosages used with those GH products, RichRich? I been trying to find this answer for 2 months. the bag is kinda vague 1-2 tsp???? thx

[polishpollack]

It's one teaspoon per gallon of water. Their webpage says to combine the veg and bloom fert for flowering, but this sound a little hot to me. When it comes to ferts in crystal form, you want to be careful how much you use. Looks like a great fert. Try some of GH humic acid. Added to the fert should yield great results.
