newbies first grow

[joedirte]

just gotta digital camera (its waterproof):rastasmoke: and thought it a good idea to create a grow log for everyone to see (i am stouned because this does not actually sound like a good idea.)

i started with bagseed. then i ordered some afghani and white widow through a trusted company.

first pic is the veg side of my closet. then one of my 2 bagseed plants, 3rd is the baby afghani family, and my current temp (lights on.)

havent started the WWs yet cause i am not comfortable starting them with no Ph meter. think thats the reason my other plants grew so slowly.:wtf: btw, bagseed is 1 mo old, afghanis are 2 weeks.

questions, comments? much appreciated

whats a good anti-damp-off solution that i can use for cloning?:thumbsup:

also would anyone recommend "super soil" or "organic sunshine"?

still waiting for that Ph meter. while im waiting, what kind of ph meter does everyone have? what kind do you wish you had? why? my bad if this sounds like a homework assighnment.

All looks good so far mate

I've got a PH pen, not sure of the make it don't have a name on it, but it does the job well enough, cost me about $40 from ebay.

Good luck!

im getting this "hanna meter champ ph tester" form hydroponics.net (fukin awsome site.) think its a pen shape too.

anyway, your WW looks great. did you by anychance get them from AMS?

heres one WW clone my bud gave me

Ya i bought a hanna ph meter cost me 250 but the only thing i use it for is hyfro on my soil i stopped cause i saw no different

[joedirte]

saw some female preflowers on the clone and my flouros arent cutting it so i put her into the flower chamber under a 400hps.

with the hps running all day the temps have risen and the humidity dropped (only on the flower side. veg side has remained the same.) think i may have to turn up the AC.

my 4 first afghans, trudging along...

these guys think theyre tough or something. (hopefully gals)

new additions to the family. 1 afghan and 2 white widow. hope they turn out allright:rastasmoke:

got my Ph meter from hanna. cost me 70$ but now i need calibration solution...

flowering day 3. i put another clone in there. i think it's mature.

new additions...

the 4 (soon to be 3) afghans.

anyone know whats wrong with this leaf?

or why these leafs are bending? its new growth thats never been abused. it should be straight. im thinking salt build up (i hate to flush. i feel like im overwatering.) or root boundness.

has anyone ever used supersoil before? im gonna be using 3 parts supersoil, 1 part chix shit, and 3 parts perlite.

ok seems like we're getting somewhere. my P3 (prototype. my first bagseed) has just turned out to be a female a couple days ago. at first i saw a little nad like thing, but then a little white hair protruded from it. hopefully another hair will show.

its about day 10 flower for my WW clone

day 7 for this girl. (another clone from a buddy)

group pic in the flowering side of my closet. (my P3 in the front. just pronounced female!)

last, my ghetto c02 contraption. works wonders though.

heres the veg side of my closet. first, 5 WW and 2 afghan seedlings

heres my afghans that may never ever mature. ive over nuted them and theyve been stunted since. (that little one on the left, i actually broke the main stem when it was 3 days old and i didnt have the heart to kill it. hasnt grown much though.)

this is my P2 bagseed. also just turned female! so far, i have a 100% female rate, (2 out of 2 so far) but a 50% mortality rate (2 of my afghans died, one of my randoms died, one had to be moved outside, and one of my prototypes died (eaten.)

this is the dog that got it. poor guy broke his leg. not saying justice was served but this is a prime example of karma. (i didnt brake his leg. he was hit by a car when my brothers girl was watching him.)

[joedirte]

yes my P2 and P3 are both female! so far i plan to flower P3 and hope for the dankest shiizah. im going to keep P2 in veg and try my hand at cloning.

when i see more results, ill post more pics
