My 1st cabinet grow log
Well my hps should be here tomorrow so I'm gonna give everything a couple days to get use to the extra lumens and flower before the end of the week. This is my first grow and all these plants are from bag seed so I'm going to play around with them. I think I'm just going to throw all of them into 12/12 and see how the young ones react. Everything got topped off last night with fox farms ocean forest soil and nutes will start as soon as i figure out a good safe mixture with the tiger bloom and big bllom. I have some new better pics. Can anyone tell me if my plant is presexing as a female or if that's just new growth?

I cant tell, but you will find out within 2 weeks or so what sex they are. My last two plants(rip) looked pertty with 2 colas and they both were male and also were from bagseed. Lets hope that outta 5 I have now I get atleast 2 females.

New update All 3 plants have been under 12/12 for 3 days now. I've installed the 400watt hps and had my temps jump up to 90. So I went to the local hydro shop and got a 265cfm Dayton for $99. It's helped bring the temps down to 84-86 F. I'll get a vented hood probably after this grow. Also started nutes 1/2 strength fox farm big bloom and tiger bloom. The middle plant age wise is definetly an indica. it's small leaves are wider than the oldest leaves on my 8 week sativa. So here's some pics can anyone tell sex yet?

For the Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom, what I do is put half a cap of Tiger per half-gallon of water, and I use that every time. I used Big Bloom last grow, and used like a full cap per half gallon of water. However, I found that you go through the Big Bloom a whole lot faster than you go through the Tiger Bloom. As a consequence, I ran out of Big Bloom.
For my current grow, I decided to just go with the Tiger Bloom and skip the Big Bloom entirely (seeing as I was out of it anyway) and see what happens. And I am pleased to report that I can't tell a lick of difference without using the Big Bloom, so unless something changes, I doubt I will use it again.
As for the Ocean Forest soil, good call there; I love that stuff, and doubt I will ever use anything else. I mix it with perlite and vermiculite: 2/3 Ocean Forest, 1/6 vermiculite, 1/6 perlite, and the plants freaking love it.
The attached pictures are a couple shots of my plants, that have received no Big Bloom this time, and a pic of my flowering cabinet and how it's set up. As you can see, the plants are incredibly healthy. If you've already got Big Bloom, obviously, use it up. But I'd consider skipping it when you run out, because Tiger Bloom + Ocean Forest soil seems most excellent to me.

Well I'm pretty sure my big beautiful stinky sativa is 100% male which sucks. I'm not even sure if I want to keep it alive just for pollen. but the other 2 plants are looking good one's definetly indica and I think the other might be a sativa. pics soon.

Update!!! Well my middle aged plant showed sex last night as a female. I'm 95% sure of this. I remember thinking my old plant was female and then balls came up everywhere. Well last night in only a couple of spots I noticed 2 white hairs coming up by the stalk. I had the biggest smile on my face. I've since removed the male from the cabinet he might go outside to finish his days off. My other young plant looks to be an indica as well so here's hoping for two fat little girls!!

You can compare the leaves in these pics the middle plant has 2 week old leaves that dwarf my 9 week sativa.
