Purple Wreck, Wonder Woman, Wht Rhino, La Confidential grow

[frostedwonder]

Hey long time since I posted something worth a look so here goes. Went and started to germ three Purple Wreck's, three White Rhino's and one Wonder Woman fem seed and one fem LA Confidential. After only three full days they already broke ground and are on there way. I am just using a small 2'ft shop light with grow bulbs in it to start them and will move them to my bigger bloom box in a week or two. Finally using decent strains and will from now on. In my bloom box I have a few cfl's and one 6'' AC sunsystem hood with a switchable ballast with 400w Hortilux eye bulbs both MH and HPS. Add a few inline duct fans and a trio of Fox Farm nutes and grow mediums and I am set. Really digging the Light Warrior seed starting mix and I am trying a root booster from Ferti-lome. I love this hobby! Oh and after this I may run either Hashberry or Satori from Mandela or Blue Venom and ak48 not sure just yet tho will see how this round goes. I was a bit cheap and didn't get all femmed seeds so never know! Anyone grow Reserve Privada's Purple Wreck before?

Hey once a person in the boonies breaks down and buys good genetics from whatever source available its usually a good time!:thumbsup:

oh and the damn LA Confidential hasn't even germ yet so thats a loss, might throw a reg Hashberry or Satori seed in its place. Mandela seems to make nice strains.

Yo Frosted glad to see you started another log bro.:jointsmile:
Will be following along to see if I can pick up anything useful to try or just new. Did you make your box taller, and are you still gonna run the extra cfl wattage in the area.? Or have you went a lil bigger from last time if my memory serves me right you got a couple 250w back during the last log. How do i subscribe to threads this been pissin me off, I forget about good logs.

I'm going to enjoy watching this one.

Something I noticed about the White Rhino; if you seed em the buds smell A LOT fruitier than otherwise. Of course they aren't as potent...

Anyone else notice that about any other strains (the fruity odor that is).

Thanks for tuning in people, I can always use some help with another pair of eyes!

KillaBG. I did score two 250w MH setups at an auction for $5.50 for both, but I gifted them to another guy that is joining the crusade. That way I can trade clones and all that good stuff without having to knock down some walls in my house to make room lol. I received some freebies from my last order of seeds and the site mentioned they had hoped their customers would give them out to others with like minds,,,so I did that. As for my bloom box your memory is good cause I had a 4' tall box and after you add the ac hood and pots there wasn't much actual space. I made it just a bit over 6' tall now, and that was the inside dimensions. I am reworking the duct and etc today and hanging up some 2mil Mylar.Not sure about the CFLs in the bloom box, probably will have two, one on each side of hps or my buy the kind that clip on the Sunsystem hood. I also noticed my new seedlings were a bit spindly so I bought a sunblaze22 2'ft T5 HO and transplanted them and buried them a bit deeper and gave em some root booster/stress reducer.

Leadmagnet, I will try to record the difference if I choose to seed the W Rhino which I may, so thats a neat observation!

Headshake! Damn long time away from these boards and wouldn't I know it your still here doing your thang! Glad to have ya around..

Oh and about the subscribe thing I believe you have to subscribe then set it up for email notifications and then your set. Also thru the User Cp it should list updated threads you are subscribed to. Take a peek at my three leaf Purple Wreck, I hope this mutant is a girl. And lastly I did say a prayer for my LA Confidential seed and then threw a Hashberry in its place!

Just a small update. T5 was not really doing it for these seedlings they asked for more light, and I gave in. Placed a MH Bulb in Bloom box and Turned it on. The seedlings seemed behind to me for being about two weeks old. I was having some temp issues in this box and had to take off the carbon filter till I get a better fan for heat extraction. Thinking about going with a Classic or premium edition Eco Plus inline 6'' fan rated at either 340cfm-classic or 440cfm for the premium. The current inline duct booster fans are just not enough.
Also, I think the Fox Farm Ocean Soil was a bit much for the little seedlings and the leaves show some issues. I had mixed it one part Pro-mix/Light Warrior/Ocean Forrest ratio going on so it might have been a bit much.. Things will even out..Gotta love soil!:gunfighter2: Happy Halloween!

Well looks like your waiting for take off, So while we all wait can we gets some shots of ya box.? With those inline duct fans can we run em like parallel to help boost more air movement.? Or will this cause issues an actually work at a disadvantage to ya.? Not to sure how your exhaust is set up, But if its like inline pulling air out box threw hood. scrubber-fan-ac hood-open end sucking air out box.? Maybe throw another inline on the hood to push, and have one pulling air.? How is your exhaust system set up if you don't mind giving a lil more detail.?:jointsmile:

Yup, been a bit busy tho and I will make a more laid out once over with some pics and all. For the most part its a box made out of 1''x3'' wood and some basic .75''plywood. Measurements are 48''W30''D72''H. One 6'' inline duct booster fan 160 max cfm. One 4'' inline duct booster fan 80cfm max,for incoming fresh air and to try for a more passive air exhaustion in general. Using a Sun system 2 6'' Ac hood with Hortilux MH for Veg and HPS bulb for flower. Box is mostly Mylar with some white painted spots.. I will follow up with some pics in a bit. imp:
