This is my first crack at this. I have 7 plants going. All from clones, in soil, using Fox Farm soil and nutes. Today is day 10. Any advice, help, comments, etc?

I have 7 plants going, all different strains. They are, White Widow, Master Bubba, 707 Headband, Black Berry, Hindu Skunk, Sour Diesel and Pot of Gold. I only did this so that I could see what gets me the best yield/quality. This way on the next go around I can grow the top 2 yielding strains from this bunch.
nice, what is your light setup? and I suggest taking clones from each a week before you flower them, then once you harvest you can keep the corresponding clones as you said, but they'll already be pretty big. :pimp:
Started LST this week. Tied down the first 2 plants that were tall enough.

I have a 400 w hps and 2 cfl's in there right now. Tomorrow I am going to get a 600w mh so I can set up another tent than I'll just rotate them from a veg tent to a flowering tent to my lungs.Quote:

My 7 girls 16 days into veg...

http://i84.photobucket.com/albums/k1...8308744540.jpg
Untied the ones I had bent over. Gonna give 'em a few days and than retie them in another direction. Have about 10 days left of veg before I switch them over to flower. They have been growing almost inches each day. It is nuts how fast these things grow once they take off! Watered them with Fox Farm nutes and molassas yesterday and today they look awsome!

Very cool, Im eager to see the end results, as Im really considering one of those grow tents. Looking good :rastasmoke:
Would be interested in what make of tent it is.. and what you think so far of it ? any light leaks ? cooling probs/recommended fan ? Looks like 13 years hasnt changed anything for you they look great :thumbsup:
Day 27 of Veg. 3 more days til I switch them to 12 and 12 for Flowering!

The tents that I am using are made by Sun Hut. So far they are working great. I have one set up for Veg and one set up for Flowering so that I can just constantly rotate them from one tent to the next, They leak absolutly no light and have plenty of openings to run all your chords out and let air circulate. All the openings and the ziper have flaps over them so that no light gets out. I have a 4" inline fan with a charcol filter just sitting inside the tent and so far the temp and humidty have been great and the smell is pretty well controled with the filter. I also live at the beach so the temp is pretty mild.Quote:

:jointsmile: Thanks for info, been lookin at the 4x4 Sunhut at the local Hydro Store might be worth a try...Will be taggin along to see how this finishes
I know that this might be a totally stupid question but if plants need all these different color lights to grow better has anybody ever used Christmas lights or party lights or anything like that that would addd tons of color light? Or are they not at all the same kind of light? Just a thought I had while udjusting the PH of my water a couple of minutes ago.
Also I am sure most of you know but instead of buying PH up and PH down you can use lemon juice to bring the PH down and baking soda, or just more water to bring the PH up. I have 6 milk gallon containers that I use to water and about 8 drops per gallon brings the PH right to a perfect level.
Lights are based on Color Spectrums and Wavelengths, if im correct and i would think that christmas lights and party lights would be like using a black light and have no useful artificial light... ex: halogen and mercury bulbs ..But i would get a response from a veteran before taking my word lol
Boy, your plants are looking fine, Bub!
You want to use the recommended types of lights, cfls, florescents, LEDs and better yet, HIDs (metal halide and high pressure sodium). No incandescent lights, they are inefficient at creating light useful for plant growth.
Shov
Today is the big day. Switched my lights to 12 and 12 to start Flowering. Just went and bought the Fox Farm Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom. Any advice for this transition into the flowering cycle? Have any of you ever used "Gravity" or any other flower hardener? Also, have any of you ever used Voodoo Juice or any other root exceler? How important are the root excelerators?

your lower branches really took off and should produce some nice buds. Ya see, I would have trimmed off the lower branches early on but I see this worked really well for you here. :thumbsup:
Don't know a lot about the products you mentioned, I use AN Overdrive, Dr. Thomas' Plant Energy (tricarboxylic acid ) with Fox Farm 3-part liquid w/ molasses and Thrive Alive (vitamins). I use the amounts as listed, though I understand that this is often more nutes than necessary.
I have also been using Fox Farms 3 part liquid along with there other 3, Cha Ching, Open Sesame and Beastie Buds. I decided not to mess with the other stuff I was asking about. I also have been using molasses every couple of waterings and so far my plants are really doing well. I tied them all over for ten days and they have created a solid canopy in my grow tent. I also switched my 400 w HPS out after veg and put in a 600 w hps the day after I switched to 12 and 12. The way things are looking I think I am going to have a very nice crop come the end of January! Whats Thrive Alive? What is it used for?Quote:

The Hindu and Master Bubba are also looking fucking awsome. So far this grow has been perfect. I just bought a 4' x 4' tent yesterday so that I can rotate and have 7 veg, 7 in the first month of flowering, and 7 in the final stage of flowering. My hope with that is to have a prepetual harvest every 30 days. Now the next step is to go hydro.

great strains jerm, welcome to the board. looking forward to watching this log develop..:hippy:
Thanks dude. I haven't yet figured out how to take those super zoomed in pictures of my plants yet but when I do I will post better pictures of where the plant is flowering.Quote:

My little girls are growing up so god damn fast! I remeber just 42 days ago when I first brought them home from the clinic. 7 tiny clones. Now look at them....they are no longer little girls...they are women!!

Sorry the pictures are crappy. All of these pictures have been taken with my cell phone under an HPS light. But you get the point. There are buds showing up all over all of my plants. I also have my other tent set up now and am going to be adding 7 more clones tomorrow to start the Veg process.
I took some better pictures of my newly blossoming ladies tonight. Not the best but a little better than the pics I have been taking with my phone. Enjoy.

Here are a few pics of the best looking buds in my garden. Not even 4 weeks into flowering and these girls are looking super strong. I switched them to a 4x4 test because they got too bushy for the 2x4 tent. Still going strong with the Fox Farm feeding schedule. I have been using half the amount but feeding them with every watering instead of every other. I have also been using molassas about every third or fourth watering. So far, so good.

The 707 is producing more than double all of my other plants so I had to go with that strain again, and than the Green Crack is just a great strain and I have heard great things about growing them. I am stepping it up from 7 plants to 12 on this next round. I have moved my setup to another location and now have twice the space and bought another light to add to the setup. I am going to Veg them under 400MH and 600HPS. The 400 light I bought switches back and fourth from MH to HPS so when it comes to flowering time I will switch out the MH bulb with a 400HPS. Got all my filters and fans and ducting hooked up over the past few days. You can stand in my garage right outside of the tent and cant smell shit! It is amazing how well charcol filters work with the heavy duty 4" inline fans ducted just out the top of the tent. I live 2 blocks from the ocean so temp is never an issue. If anything the heat from the lamps is a good thing. My tent stays between 70-78 during lights on and 65-71 during lights out. I love this shit! Everytime I look into my tent at my banging garden it damn near brings a tear to my eye!Quote:

Through out this grow I have been following Fox Farms feeding schedule that they have posted on the website. And so far my plants are looking like fucking champions. But the schedule shows using the Cha-Ching for the final 4 weeks. But everything I have read says that you are supposed to feed your plants just straight water for the last 10 days or so. So should I flush and use plain water or should I flush and use water and the Cha Ching up til the very end?
