led n t5's good bag seed closet grow

well here again to do another grow.

I actually started it about a month ago exactly so ill have a few small pics and some big ones.

Running my setup in a 2.5' w by 4.5' long about 5' tall
lighting using a led bar from str8, 4ft 4 bulb t5, and a 2ft 4 bulb t5 for side lighting.
lots of cheap light:thumbsup::thumbsup:

This round half my plants are in roots organic soil half in fox farm ocean forest soil.

Nutrients will be Floranova grow and bloom, have used zho root inoculant during transplanting worked nicely:thumbsup:

bout a month and some days into the grow. a few are lst'd i did it for fun but slowly starting to take up too much room.

all in all very healthy plants budding will start in a few days and the fun begins:rastasmoke::rastasmoke:

1st pic was oct 16th
2nd oct 23rd
3,4,5 are all from oct 30th you can seed i added a tray cleaned it up and hung my lights.:thumbsup:

forgot to add. if you look at the first pic u can see 2 plants with long stems and leafs at the top.

me an my buddy where smokin up and i planted 2 seeds in his moms pot for fun as a joke but they acctually popped up next to his moms herbs. i took them in early oct and didnt expect them to do much since they where out there all summer and grew not even a foot and wernt really budding.

i took them by physically reaching my hand in the pot and diggin a little ball of roots out and replanting. and a few weeks later :thumbsup::thumbsup:
:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Get your lights closer :)

yea i needed too but they were getting light bleached at first. now there fine and have grown in to the space.

watered them all yesterday with about 1.5-2 tsp a gallon of floranova grow.

went to a local hydro shop and picked up something equivalent to a co2 burner for 25 buckshttp://www.ecogrow.com/index.cfm/product/2565/mid/16/nid/0/home.html

anyone ever used these?
i thought it would be nice because i dont have a fresh air intake blowing on the plants and in my room so with this co2 bag its kind of a subsitute but im sure still better.
:thumbsup: enjooy:rastasmoke:

very rare I see plants getting bleached, especially with T5 lighting.

theres that led bar hiding behind it if u cant see. not just t5 lighting:thumbsup: yeah t5's i dont think could do that but the led's high output was too much when my plants where still in seedling stage

turned the t5 off and the led shows its color:rastasmoke:

I would lower the lights, those t5's can be within centimeters of the bulbs and the LED's wont burn them either. You have Two great sources of light, they just dont penetrate canopies very well.


that purple light is trippy though, i cant believe that the T5's effect the color of light so much.

Khyberkune.........i would be soo delighted if you could tell me why its so purple with the t5's on but with them on you can barely see the LED's shining? :thumbsup:

There's so much more red and blue from the LED versus the T5 light that the concentrated blue and red overpowers the majority of the green output from the T5 unit, plus the added red and blue from the phosphors in the T5 unit means overall far more red and blue are output versus green.

here we are day 5 of bud.
the plants are really starting to stretch and look real good. its getting a little tight in there. should i trim up some of the lower canopy?

have given these plants another boost of zho root inoculant and a couple of them oregism another mycorzia by aurora innovations.

i have lst'd a few as well as fimm'd both those and fimm'd a few more trying to control height. next watering i will give bush master to my plants trying to help the stretch even more.

confirmed 6/10 females of out of my original 12. 2 have already turned male
here we are :thumbsup:

Smoking a bowl for the lost ones.

stretch continues here we are with some straight led pics and led +t5

5th is a pic a comp fan im currently running out take threw my panda film

looking really good man. ive been pondering using a LED for a while. your plants are becoming nice monsters. keep us posted!!!

sup guys. here we are day 11 in the buddin.

2 so far are going faster than the others poppin pistols like none other.

my first to acctualy show sex was an intersting plant and started popping pistols at about 5 inches from seed before the rest even in veg.
seems like an autoflower trait although i know nothing about them.

space continues to tighten and thickin

i decided to throw my 2ft 4bulb t5 back in near the 3 smallest ones. heat was an issuse but my little pc outtake fan seems too keep a constant 82 F since its been in.

in another week or 2 these should be a nice lookin closet of bud. :thumbsup:

pic # 4 u can see my smallest plants. theres 3
the one popping lots of pistols and 2 plants from seed that my friend got out of some chrooonic. and that it was... supposedly called "greenery" pssshhh

enjoy let me know what u think.:rastasmoke::rastasmoke:

Looks good so far! :greenthumb:

Got a pic of your suspected auto flower?

that little guy in the 4th pic with all the pistols. no more than a foot tall
as it grew it looked deformed as the first set of true leafs came out both curled kinda. kinda creating a W with the way they came out. as it grew the under the nodes stacked on real tight and the undergrow never stretched out but stayed close to the stem.
had multiply pistols before it was in bud and before any other plant showed any signs

in that pic it is left of the thermometer. short and stacked. that was on the 5th.

was planted oct 4th like the rest of the biggest ones in my room. interesting..
must be genetics ?

I'm impressed, Gare!

That looks suspiciously like a male, as floral bracts at nodes tend to not have a leading stem.

leave it or get rid of it right now? watcha think

Move it and observe another day at that spot. It should be much more pronounced by then.

Looks like a boy to me,... at least the cat seems to like it! :S2:


I'm so happy that I'm not the only one with a cat that likes to eat MJ plants Nomnomnom!

yea looks like the cats gay. he cant get enough of those plants. before i had a zipper he would pop the doors open an go to town.:mad::mad::wtf::wtf:

another little update almost 3 weeks into bud now.
just got back into town. hit them with nutes before i left boom boom maybe a little too much...

my one that is blooming the fastest is the one that seems like an autoflower. super fast and real small. hmmm. cut off some lower branches kinda like lolly poppin? maybe it will just be one big cola

had too cut down another 2. 1 being 1 of 2 i transplanted from my friends garden
my total is 7 females for my crop.

pic 1 is the quick buddster
pic 2 you see another 2 poppin nice pistols
pic 3 you can see the pic guy in the back i lst'd it down kinda and fimmed it earlyed and it has lots of shoots.
pic 4. fimmed her too. you can really see how the under growth has come up and even with the top. and i got another one lst'd down into it.

space is tight...
pic 5. as u can kinda see

straight water for a few more days than more nutes :thumbsup::rastasmoke:

enjoy the variety pack of mystery

Grow looks like it's going good, except for some stretching youre on your way to harvesting some good meds!! I doubt your cat is gay though, he's just enjoying a good creation from nature- the GREEN. Good luck and I hope you have a good yields, I'll definately be checking on this thread...


Peace

My cat is obsessed with eating my plants.

some more pics

slowly by slowly we watch them grow

Cute kitten! :D Turns out 2 of my little furry turds like to chew on MJ, :( Oh well at least it's not all 4,........ yet.


Plants are lookin healthy and happy. Looks like the LED and Floro combo is working nicely for ya!

whats up bro, you still want some seeds? I can also spare a clone of my Sour diesal if your interested. Seeing that your in state, we could make this happen.

I need a grow buddy anyways, i feel so lonely all by myself:jointsmile:

ill always take what i can specially when u know where it comes from :thumbsup::thumbsup: love to try some. dont have much to offer i could get you some cuttings from a buddy of mine if u wanted something new. :rastasmoke: me and my buddy love to trade. its how it should be done..
but yes forsure friends in this little industry are very helpful to have:thumbsup:

on the 2nd i watered 2 with nutes. last night hit the remaining 5 with nutes.
straight bloom this time. grow faster!

like i said... hit them with the nutes and booom boooom shacckaalakaaa i wish my eyes could see like this camara cuz it makes shit look way better.

pic 1. my quick quick flower short and stocked.
pic 2 2nd in line. commin along damn nice. :thumbsup:
pic 3. right group shot.
pic 4. left group shot
pic 5. an again.

got a few more commin.

some mo
pic 1. in the 3rd pic above. the middle front and front right are these too. there size gets hidden as it all mesh;s together.

note... these where both fimmed, and the taller one is in a 1gal grow bag. the shorter one a 2 gal. hmmm.

pic 2. only i've been really able to tell the size of this, its in a 2 gal, i lst'd it very early, ended up releasing the lst.. fimming it, down low and high. the very bottem branch kinda created a second top as it was lst'd. farthest behind but thats my fault because i fimmed than budded a few days later. hopefully no biggy except for those colas when they fill out :rastasmoke:

pic 3. theres the plants back in space

forgot the mention in pic 2 right there that after lst'd, untied, fimmed, i retied it again tryin to reduce height. main stems crooked sideways if u can see

heres a little night time update. gave them a small boost of nutes again the past 2 days.

continued to lst the plants. i want a nice even canopy but its hard to get.

plants are lovin life.
amazing the difference in pictures from night to day.
pics left and right group shots. right side got more lst action last night.

enjoy:rastasmoke::rastasmoke:

just thought id show how the lst is working and continuing.
maybe need some more on my big plant on the end..
how we loookin.

made a little investment more to come, maybe you guys will get to see it
stick around:jointsmile:

where did you order them from? They nicely packaged and look legit.

got them from the attitude seed bank. kinda skeptical at first took almost a month. cant complain now though cuz there sittin right next to me:rastasmoke:
