As promised, pics on 4/20 of my 2 confirmed ladies plus the G13s. One of my 8 Ball Kush was transplanted outside already and the other is still small so I didn't take a picture. The dwarfs got their last dose of Grow Big (so 3 feeds of GB total) on Saturday 4/18. I will feed them just distilled water until Thursday when I will start Tiger Bloom/Big Bloom. G13 Thai SS will continue to get just GB while G13 SS fem will get her first taste of GB on Thursday. Temp right now is 75F with 48% humidity. 400w Metal Halide conversion bulb on a 20/4 light schedule. I will switch to HPS in 6-7 days.
The pictures are:
1-White Dwarf1 in the early stages of flowering
2-White Dwarf2 in early flowering.
3-White Dwarf1 overhead view
4-G13 Super Skunk feminized
5-G13 Thai SS
Happy 420! :vap_smiley: :hippy:
are you following the fox farm feeding schedule?
it recommends feeding grow big and big bloom throught veg (the big bloom is pretty much every feeding).
rusty trichrome recommends using half dosages twice a week for a full dosage amount as they can run a little "hot". they also cause salt build-up pretty quick so make sure to flush once a month or so.
the feeding schedule is on the fox farm website. and check out some posts about the FF nutes. there are several around.
the plants are looking lovely by the way!
good growing!

Thanks Shake. I am just trying my own feed schedule based on lots of grows and info I read. I am going to flush accordingly and monitor the plants closely. I cant wait to see some buds in a few weeks. I think this grow has a lot of potential.:hippy:Quote:

I see that you are now using the MH, have you noticed any difference yet? Also, why are you switching to HPS? You have two autoflowers and a regular strain in the box, won't that affect the regular strain, possibly making it bloom to soon? I plan on doing some autoflowers aswell, should I MH in the first month, and HPS in the second? Or does that really even matter?
you guys flush in veg? I haven't had to flush other than pre harvest or I thought I may have over fed them once. I have not used FF, I had been using the complete BC starter kits for the last 3-4 grows (plus many additional suppliments) and no salt appearing, no nute lockout. Am I just lucky or am I missing something?
Yes I have noticed a big difference. The plants LOVE the MH. I'm switching to HPS because HPS is more for flowering. The regular plants won't flower because the lights will remain on 20/4 until the AFs are harvested. The day I harvest the AFs, I will pop MH back in and go to 18/6 and then eventually 12/12. You could really do an entire grow start to finish with just HPS or just MH and everything would turn out fine, people have done it, read around the grow logs.Quote:

My veg flush is basically just 3 seperate waterings of just distilled water. I haven't experienced salt build up yet, as I'm monitoring ph pretty good. However, I did have a little bit of nute burn on the tips of a couple lower leaves.
They are really starting to smell up the grow area and there are nice resinous white hairs coming out. I'm also about 70% sure that my G13 Thai SS is a female which is great news. Temp and humidy is currently 76F/52%. Thank you for your comments guys, keep 'em coming and if you don't mind, throw me some rep! :thumbsup: lol More pics coming on Monday.:hippy:
4204life, I think you will be pleased with your dwarfs they do continue to grow while finishing and get close to 2 ft. I can tell your two girls are loving your care.

I am probably just gonna start of with something simple, maybe the basic lowryder. Did you order Regular or Fem AF seeds? Another question I had was about light leaks, they are irrelevant in a dwarf grow? Is that correct?
