Hi all,
My network connection has been down for last 10 days BUT I'm back- Plently to report on the grow which will follow shortly :)
Hi all,
Well Everything seemed to be going well up until day 19 of flower, then the plants started shooting over 4 ft and ended up with some burn to the top cola of one plant and had to bend the plants toward the corners of the grow tent.
For the previous week, EC was maintained at 1.4-1.6 PH 5.5-6.2 Hum 56%-63% and temp has been good between 19-20c during dark cycle and 20-23c during light cycle.
currently EC is 1.7, PH 5.7, HUM 56% , Temp 23c.
I will be adding pics from day 19, 20 and 21 ...
the plants are 21 days into flowering today.
Any comments or advice pls go ahead.
cheers:rasta:

u burned your tops? What size light is that and how far away do you usually keep it? I am air cooling my hood as well which made me think it was nearly impossible to burn the plants since the temps are usually below 80 but I cant seem to come to a correct answer on this one. Isn't heat the enemy? Is there such a thing as being too close to the plants? Don't LED guys leave their light up next to the tops?
well its a 600w hps, its a cooled air tube , normally they are about 12" above top of plant. BUT they plants are going crazy and already nearly 4ft high so....am stuck any suggestions..?/:jointsmile:
They should stop stretching soon I would think. You could carefully tie them down if it gets to crazy.
Hey peeps,
I just thought I would give you an update of how my GHS Fem WW are doing in my wilma system. This is my first grow, and so far its has been fairly straight forward thanks to all the wisdom of you legend growers!!
I've germinated from seeds 10 fem WW GHS. and all 10 hatched ! I picked the best 4 to veg. One mistake which I won't repeat in future grows is vegging for 3 wks!! because wilma gets too crowded when they treble in size!!
I've used 600w MH during vegging and changed to 600w HPS, with a cooltube and 3 fans. The feeding cycle I've been using since day one is 24/7 drippers into clay pebbles.
The plants are 28days into flower and I have included pics. Just incase your wondering what the hights are the shortest is over 4 ft, the other 3 are 5ft and over!!...You might be wondering why I haven't bent the plants ...well I new to this and I didn't want to run the risk of damaging the main stems. Only one cola is slightly toasted but I have managed to keep the other main colas out of direct heat or light. Also couple of wks ago I lollipopped the plants and every wk since I've been removing leaves that are very yellow or stained...where no light has been getting to them.
The EC I'm running at is 1.5 that includes max strength of boost once every week. Ph keeps jumping to 6.1-6.4 in the night but I've been adjusting that to 5.5-5.7 daily. The plants still don't seem to be feeding much just drinking!!..Hum has been ranging from 52%-63% and temp has been steady 20c at night and during the light cycle 23-26c.
These are more pics of the plants at 28days into flower
Final set of pics of day 28 of flower.
Thanks for looking:jointsmile:
