Orangeman's 1st log!

[orangeman]

Meh little progress. I'm interested in what they'll look like two weeks from now lol.

[invision]

flower process is very slow, the problem is that YOU must ignore that they even exist, i dont look at mine everyday, sometimes ill water log them so i dont have to look in there for 3 days then when i look its just amazing how much they grew in that little time.

comming along nicely orangeman , ill be watching to see the results.

I can't seem to find any mites but the plants have indicators that they have been attacked. I dunno most of the attacked tops are the first few branches so that might be old damage just looking more severe because they are growing bigger but I'm still on the look out. I put that odor thing to work, don't really notice anything different yet. We'll see how it goes when they start smelling. I think that dehumidifier is either drying the soil out or those plants are sucking up water now more than ever, I think it's both. I have no choice though I need to keep that thing in the room. I'll have pics up next week.

Yup, the plants get aweful thirsty as the grow bigger, that's for sure!

you'll notice the dehumidifier definitely assists in drying out the soil a bit more, however, once they start flowering and getting bigger they will start consuming more water..combination of both man, I saw the same once I got my dehumidifier, but I'd say majority goes to the plant..

Well I made a few changes in room today, sadly in the process since the room is so small I had an accident, fan fell twice and took one fan leaf off of both plants. One of the fan leaves that snapped off was shooting out of a bud site, I hope the bud still grows fine . I have more room than I thought for clones, so after this grow I'm going to empty out room and put a new sheet in the room sectioning it off. One section for clones and one section for growing plants. Next time around I think I'm gonna wait until the plants are mature enough to be flowered, then take 3 cuttings from each plant and then put the plants in 12/12 and see which ones are female and male, I'll kill the males and let the females flower all the way while the clones are still growing. And then if my clones are mature enough to enter 12/12 they will go in the next room and be flowered as well with the other plants if they haven't been chopped down already, then I will have lots more bud to last me . That should work fine . Anyways here's more shots. I decided to give them a whole gallon jug. Had plenty of run off, didn't expect that to happen lol. I tied some weak looking plants upward to help support them.

Btw they don't look like they have any deficiencies but I was wondering if I should give them some flowering nutes? Like would it help promote bud growth or what? I'm not sure on what to do since they seem fine but maybe it could be like a boost or something?

They look good

I'm ashamed to not know much about weed when it comes to growing. I cant follow any conversations cause im clueless.

But do you think it was worth it investing all the money into the grow room when the yield wont be a large amount? When you could have spent 100$ and got just as much bud? Just wondering for future reference.

[orangeman]

Well I invested all of the money because I thought I'd be using all of what I bought. And honestly it might not seem like it but 95% of the the stuff I bought, I'm using and it is making a difference in how my grow has gone. Now I don't know what you mean by large amount but as far as the money goes that I spent on the light, I do think it was worth it because I'm pretty sure 250 watts from my HID delivers much more lumens than 250 watts of CFL's would have done, and next time around I will have clones so that will be a plus when it comes to "final yield" next time around. Besides this isn't a one time thing. Now when ever I decide to upgrade all I have to worry about buying is a light with more wattage and a better set up for my ventilation system. So yes I do think it was worth it. Trust me $100 won't get you too much anywhere if you really are trying to grow something for "yield" and not just for fun or experiment.
