My First Grow: Northern Lights
First of all, let me thank everyone who has helped me with my first grow. Cannabis.com along with you well informed and helpful members helped me accomplish something I've been wanting to do for a while now. Everything from convincing me to start, to what strain, to my setup, lights, soil, nutes, plant problems, etc.
I wish I had started a log from day one, unfortunatly though my camera was broken and i never thought it would take this long to get fixed, I finally gave up and went out and bought a new one today.
I'm already nearing harvest, Day 31 of flower. The strain is Northern Lights. My setup is a cabinet 30"X15"X60" using only CFLs. My exhaust is simply 2 Frebreeze odour catching fans that are aimed out two holes near the top of the cab, two air intake holes at the bottom. IMO this is a good way to exhaust for a small setup. They are very very quiet, they blow out a good amount of air, and they collect the smell as the air leaves the cab.
To fill you in on what has happened so far, I had trouble getting started because my white widow seeds would not even germinate...i had 4 trying to go, and after 3 or 4 weeks i just gave up on them, my 2 Northern lights had germinated within 1 or 2 days, planted and sprouted an inch over night...I picked a bad soil to start, the sprouts stopped growing after a couple inches and turned yellow....I transplanted them using a different soil and planted 2 more Northern Lights from seed at the same time. My 2 sprouts quickly turned a healthy green, and my two seeds had sprouted...The two new sprouts quickly grew and over towered the two older plants, and still today they are both much taller and more full than the original one....out of 4 plants growing, I only had 1 male which i immidiatly killed, leaving 3 beautiful healthy girls. That was it for problems, its been an easy grow since then.
I was feeding them with 20:20:20 nutes and they loved it...i used the nutes about once a week, until they grew so big that i was afraid they would run out of space so i stopped using the nutes...Instead I started using honey in my water which i was told helps with the buds....I've been using honey once a week since.
But enough reading for now, lets get to what im sure most of you came here to see, PICS!!!WeedNeedy Reviewed by WeedNeedy on .
