My first newbie grow
Hi everyone ... Today is an exciting day! If you haven't figured it out from the pictures (specifically the color change) today is the first day of flowering! I've gone ahead and switched out the 600w MH bulb for the 600w HPS bulb. I've also topped off the 40gal reservoir with 4 gallons of PH'ed water & 1/2 strength veg nutes/LK. The 1/2 strength nutes is because water evaporates while the nutes don't .. and this way I'm not causing there to be a build up nutes (obviously I read this somewhere else and it makes sense). I'm going to continue running the veggie nutes until next weekend to help keep down the stretching. Then next week it'll be full strength bloom, liquid karma, and sweet. I'm also treating the ladies with Neem oil every 3rd day to treat a white fly infestation issue I've been having ... it appears it's working because I'm not seeing them buzzing around when I gently shake the ladies.
In one of the pictures I put a 1 gallon milk jug for size perspective. Also, I included an identical shot angle showing the differences in bulb colors. :rasta:JohnnyWisdom Reviewed by JohnnyWisdom on . My first newbie grow So I got some bag seeds from a friend, put them into a cup of water, and started growing them outdoors in miracle grow soil. I quickly realized two things (1) it was too late to start (early Aug) to harvest anything more than what I generally spill when rollin' a dubie and (2) the MG I was using wasn't the smartest choice of soil ... so, let the decisions begin. First, I decided I was going to move indoors. I bought a 5x5x6 grow tent (darkroom 150) and lit it up with a 600 watt switchable MH Rating: 5
