Welcome Everyone..I am definitely No Pro, but hopefully some people can benefit from my logs to grow some dank themselves.. as Weed is way too expensive globally and some of us just cannot afford it so growing our own is not a choice, but a must.
Anyways Specs are...
-4ft T5 for Veg...
-400 watt hps for flowering...
-4x5x2 Veg box
-4.5x4.5x7 Flower box with panda film
-6in Exhaust fan, 6in Passive intake..
-Seed Starter For the first 2-3 wk's then MG Moisture control mixed with perlite until there done..
-Transplant schedule will be 1 month in party cup, 1 month in 2 gallon bucket, then 2 months in 5 gallon bucket or until there done..
-Fox Farm Nutrients: Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, Big bloom..
-Following website feeding schedule but modifying the big bloom to half of what it suggest..
Strains
5-feminized Nirvana Bubbleicious
5-feminized Nirvana Wonder Woman
4-Mystery Seeds (Possibly AfGhooey)
Lets get it on..

Hey I am running one femmed seed of Wonder Woman, and I am really digging the strain so far. Not only do they look yummy but they are vigorous plants. I will be checking your log out for sure!:thumbsup:

Very impressed with Nirvana's products. If you look around at the boards most Nirvana grows seem to go smooth. Which is funny when you think they are almost the cheapest seed bank out there... go figure :thumbsup:
Looking great so far I'll stay tuned for this one.

Sound like great strains BP...Will you be toppin' or training this grow???I don't wanna sound like a pessimist but 14 plants that have been vegged for two months and then put to flower in 5 gallon buckets will need alot of light and room...
Wishin' you a good grow man...:)

Sounds interesting.
This is pretty ambitious for a soil grow! :greenthumb: That's a big ol' pile of dirt! :eek:
Definitely interested in seeing the Wonder Woman grow-out, the ones I've seen to date have been real producers. :thumbsup: How many bulbs in the T5 lamp?

Hey DTR, nice to hear from you man, thanks for the nice comments. I am definitely gonna be topping this grow..probably twice on each plant to keep em short..i am gonna have to read up on that subject so i know how and when to do it. As for space issues i might be purchasing another tent to help out or just chop the shit out of em as they grow so there not to cramped..what do u suggest?

Evil Cartman, good to hear from you too. Yea i am gonna go all out on this one and see if i can stock up for the family. When i was choosing out seeds for this grow the wonder woman looked like the biggest producer from nirvana, so i hope she lives up to her hype. The t5 has 4 bulbs.

First off,let me say your youngsters look very happy and healthy...Really like the catch tray under the party cups as well...
The reason I mentioned the veg time and the the 5 gallon pots is that it reminded me alot of my grow...I usually veg between 45 to 60 days depending on the strain...My plants are transplanted into 5's during the last week of veg...Whether they're growin' high or wide,one thing's 4sho...They take up alot of room...
I've never been a topper or a FIMer as I've always been nervous about cuttin' the plants to much except during harvest,lol...I cut off lower branches that I feel aren't gonna get enough light and prune lower growth on the remaining lower branches for the same reason...This gives more energy to upper growth imo...I do most of the pruning during veg and do any other pruning very early in flower...
What would I do???I don't know if you wanna hear this but with a 400WATT system and the amount of plants you have I'd cut the veg time drastically and flower em in 2 or 3 gallon pots...
This is just one opinion and I hope you get many more as there's so much talent on this site...
No matter what you do I'm sure I'll be diggin' it BP...Best of luck to ya man!!!

I like your thinking DTR, great ideas all around the board. Thanks for taking the time to give me a few pointers. I agree with so much of your pruning and potting schedule. I thought about throwing em in after a small veg time but im afraid that there wont be enough room in the flower box with the burmese, purlple kush, and chemdawg taking all the canopy. I know there gonna get humungous as u were saying so im probably gonna donate half of them to a local grower to get him started. His setup is over 2000 watts so it will be nice to see the difference from one grow room to another. Then i will have plenty of room in the flower box for the 6 or 7 ladies to get there full potential. Maybe over the summer i can do a 14 plant grow log, but for now i agree with all you guys, a bit too ambicious for a 4x4x7 tent..:hippy:

I topped all 13 of the plants tonight at the 4th node and i will be topping them once more in about two weeks to keep em short and stunted while the big girls are finishing up. There is only 13 now because one of them had a shitty root development so i made the decision to execute her without hesitation. :)
-
BluntPassers shot @ Redemption
-Well the topping went great. All the plants were topped except for the 3 mystery plants, and they were not topped because they are going to be given away in a few days so i will let that grower perform his own techniques.
-I fucked up and let all 13 of the plants dry out for 3 days and they were looking bad when i first saw them last night, this led me to believe it was transplant time, and then i pulled one of the plants out of its cup and saw that it was root bound and ready for a 1 gallon pot. :thumbsup:
-I transplanted all the plants yesterday into 1 gallons full of MG Moisture Control, and then watered with 1 Qt. of (wk.3)Nutrient water each.
-Within one day they all have come back and are looking amazing. I think the short drought might of gave them some extra horsepower?
-They are gonna spend a month in the 1 gallons until they are just a hair root bound, then it will be onto the 2 Gallons, followed by the 5 Gallon buckets until they finish.
-I am also Spraying these plants with SMC Leaf Wash every time i water.
-This product is keeping my leaves shiny and bug/dirt free..highly recommend it as a cheaper alternative to Neem oil and chemicals.

-Well its been a while since i posted for this log due to being so exhausted with two jobs, the plants are doing great and growing fast. The topping has payed off as the plants have slowed there vertical growth and are growing horizontally..:thumbsup:
-They are just finishing week 4 of veg as seedling stage took 16 days..
-I have been foliar feeding them with SMC Leaf Wash every watering and this stuff does miracles.
-The neem oil is 40$ a bottle and im sure its effective. But this stuff works the same if not better and leaves no taste on the buds and can be used up until harvest..Oh and its only $3 a bottle.
-I watered with 1qt of water after transplant and the plants took a week to dry out..This was too long for me as i like them to go about 3/4 days and dry out..So i changed the watering amount to 1/2 Qt.
-I am giving the plants nutrients every other watering as the foxfarm feeding schedule states.
-I plan on giving these plants the full line of nutrients this grow once they start flowering..Beastie Bloomz, Cha Ching, and open sesame..:thumbsup:

everything is looking good BP! great actually. minus the stretch on that one plant. that is one of the mystery seeds.
i've only ever heard GREAT things about nirvana genetics. your grow seems to point to why.

Fingers crossed that the mystery bean is a sativa dom "she" with enough indica in her as to not make her to much of a pain in the ass as far as bending her to stay with the rest of the canopy goes...
Lookin' good BP!!!Give em a smooth transplant a week B4 flippin' em and you're golden...:)

Yea u got it right, the only mystery seed left in my garden..I hope its a female too bro. Im about 99% sure its a male due to its stretching and just being so damn thirsty..time will tell..thanks for stopping bye bro.:)

Shake my man, nice to hear from you. Thanks for the compliments. I am pretty happy with nirvana so far, there plants seem to compare well to the other seed banks for a much more reasonable price..As for the stretching i just topped the mystery last night so hopefully she will start growing horizontally now instead of vertically..Thanks again my friend.:)

Thanks for poppin in DTR, Thanks for the kind words. Iv got my fingers crossed as well with that mystery, I just topped her so growth should slow down for the next couple weeks..I will definitely be transplanting before they go into flower..Do u think i should throw em straight into a 5 gallon or go to the 2 gallon first.??:jointsmile:

I'd go with the 2 gallon transplant if you're not planning to flower within a week...The plants are topped and you'd just be loosing root space if you transplanted and continued veg in 5 gallon pots...Watch your height and don't think that you have to be root-locked when you transplant from 2's to 5 gallon pots...When you do go from 2's to 5's,water the day before...Roll the pot in your hands to loosin' roots clinging to the interior sides of the pot...Press on the bottom of the pot with the trunk in between two fingers of the other hand to gently release the rootball and place it into the 5 gallon pot which you should have already made a 2 gallon footprint in with a 2 gallon pot...The rootballs don't have to be completely covered(think BOG multi-tier)...Make sure you water the day before to keep that 2 gallon rootball together...GOOD LUCK FRIEND...:)

hey DT, about the BOG thing, i was thinking that using starter pots could work. you know the ones that are made out of cardboard pulp or what have you? they allow air to flow through them but would keep the light from the roots. and it would help keep the "tier" a bit more stable. not to mention be one (or several depending on how many you used) transplant. your thoughts?

Thanks for coming through and taking a look Doc, I have really enjoyed the MG Moisture Control so far, No Ph Problems, No Drainage problems, just extreme growth IMO. I mix one of the big bags with a bag of MG perlite and its been very beneficial.:thumbsup:

After 4 weeks in the 1 gallon pots all the plants in veg were transplanted to 2 gallon pots with a local grow shop soiless mix as the medium instead of MG Moisture Control mixed with perlite..I made the decision to switch because i heard great things about the soiless mix from some local growers..

Its been a while since i posted due to busy schedule. Plants are really coming along. I have been taking care of them at a different location at the moment which has been working out really well for both parties.:rasta:
I have given the plants purple max once and gravity twice so far and they have responded amazing. They are all(7) currently in 5 gallon buckets 10 days from harvest and looking amazing.
They are under a air-cooled 600w hps and im using my 6" duct fan(10$) for a passive exhaust and my small desk fan for air circulation..
Pics..These are actually from a few weeks ago..more to come soon..
