SeedKing's 1st Grow Northenr Lights/ W Rhino

"STOP CUTTIN US DOWN DOOFUS"

What does it make you if you misspell dufus?

Yes, Right Away

The Vertical ones were on just for the pic, They are off for the seedlings.. I like your attention to detail...

Okay, I moved the fans and they are flapping and fluttering in the wind.. Kinda makes me nervous.. but we will see..

I will see if I can hang another light somehow..

I will look into the other bulbs and see if I can afford it, keep in mind I do have a 400 Watt MH for Veg.. its just not in the pic.. but more is better..

Your will be done..

hey real quick i havent had a chance to study your work but the first plant on the right in the pot looks like shes fighting a hurricane.

the stems should flutter back and forth not take on the constant angle of my broken dick :D

just wanted to post this for i study your pics and she dies :eek:

If you've got the MH I'd for sure use it. Just not right at first or you might burn the little kids. And I'd have that light right down on top of 'em. When I first started the ones I'm growing right now I had the 2 footer I was using at the time laying on the top of the container. Just make sure there's air blowing across the top of the container, which will mean it's blowing in the container too. Just enough.

Yeah, I moved the fans back farther and turned them on low.. That plant is kinda droopy even without the fan.. now they are just fluttering on the top a little.. better safe than sorry..

How close can I go to the canopy, right now I am about two inches.. I can add another catalog under them to bring them closer to the light.. it would be a inch..

I dont think you need them more than 1".....you can get that close.

You are losing tons of side light though.

I would take the big white cardboard sheets they sell in wal mart for creepy fucking school kids to cut and make posters out of...and drap them on the sides of that light fixture you have.

so you creat in effect a tunnel shaped light dome..the fan blows fresh air in one end and it escapes out the other. The hanging white paper sheets reflect the light back and forth thousands of times until its absorbed by the green of the leaves...

or the red of your encyclopedia :D (cover that up too)

Okay I got that done, they are about 1.25 inches..

I added the creepy kid white board... gotta work on that to get it tighter.. consider it better in the future...I will try to smooth down the sides so there is no gap.. work in progress..

Covered up the book with mylar.. I better cover up that blue box also..

It is such a nice thing to have people that actually take and apply advice :)

Much like 9ski9 did :) And stickygreenlightsabre.

That looks real good and your plants will benefit from the efforts.

I am curious though...with the fan blowing against the taller containers, how are the smaller containers behind the bigger ones getting thier stems blown?

Ideally all of you plant tops should create a straight canopy or level canopy. Having a seedling positioned 4 inches from the bulb surface because your taller ones are 1 inch away, affects them adversly.

This may not be the case...but...just in case......check it out :)

Looking good now.

When do you plan on placing them in real containers?

I see the error of my ways:

Lessons learned:

Use the same type of container: Well here is what happened, I had these jiffy pots that I was gonna use (the kind that expand as you add water) then I also got some the kinds that are already expanded.. I called myself doing a experiment to see which would work better.. the jiffy pots came up quickly... Then to make things worse I had some bag seeds, and I decided they were just crap because the weed was crap.. so I called myself making my own containers for the bag weed. which was stupid because it turns out that just because the weed was crap doesnt mean the seeds are crap.. something about how they were grown, how they were transported, effetcs the final product.. so they could have some good genetics.. sorry for BABBLING.. too make a long story short, I should have used all the same type of containters:

Use 6 inch to start out with: Then transplant into bigger container.. The way things look now I am gonna have to transport soon (I could be wrong) into something bigger and all I have is my five gallon bucket.. Could it be too soon to do that.. The plan was give them all the room they wanted at first.. even though I would have a bigger pot to water,more dirt etc.. So I wonder what should I really do.. Transport to 5 gallon when ready OR transport to smaller pot and then later to the 5 gallon.. I am thinking less transplanting better..

1. When will I transplant, I was gonna wait until they were 2 weeks.. give them a week to re-coup and then turn on the 400 Watt MH.. What do you think..? I was expecting to see some roots shooting out the side of the jiffy pots..

2. I wish all the plants were the same size. That means some are closer to the light, some are farther from the light.. It woud be better if I had two lights to try to even it out.. I wonder if some of those Puntas will stretch..

Also, yes it is nice for people to follow advice.. I have no problem doing it, I have never raised any SENORITAS, so my ego is turned off. plus if I take your advice you are more apt to help, that is just LIFE.. One day I will be the master, but this is my first GROW.. so having some good smoke is worth laying down my ego, when I finally grow some killer smoke.. Your name will be song in the halls of THC laced bitches.
