First Grow

[Vancefish]

Four would be great. However three is all I'll grow out. I could give the fourth to Cathy and Gerry.:thumbsup:

I'd planned to take and post a pic of my SCRog plants Saturday. However the new growth was so densely packed, I re-wove the whole thing to both fill in the screen, AND give better light to ALL. All the tips turned to the light yesterday. I can see a TON more new leaves as well. This morning was watering time, So tonight will be Photo day.:hippy:

3 day's later and I'd say things look good. Found a couple more sacks on the lowest branches of both plants and trimmed them out, I hope it's stress and not genetic because the tops are growing so dense I'd never see a sack till it's too late.


Pics! :jointsmile:

I've been slacking on progress reports on my outdoor girl,... mainly since she's still in veg as the solstice was just a couple day's ago and equinox isn't for another couple months, but suffice to say she's been growing like a weed!


I'll try and take a pic in the morning.

<--------SLACKER!!!!! :stoned:



As promised I did take a pic of my outdoor plant,.... that was 3 day's ago! She's looking good, and is making pre-flowers, so far all girl ones :detective1: I figure she's got another month to month and a half before the shortening day's start to kick her into flower, so by the time she's done I'm guessing she'll just be hitting the top of the fence line.



I'm kinda thinking I dwarfed my current 2 indoor plants tho,:wtf: The only real new growth seems to be flowers, (no leaves poking out, no stretch) and the buds are tiny, about the tip of my pinky finger, and there's the beginnings of trich poppage on the few new growth leaves there are.


Temps were a bit (LOT) on the high side for the first week under the HPS, 90+ and spiked over 100 once, I think I had it too close.

I rebuilt the flower room with top to bottom Panda, added a portable swamp cooler to the intake, (on the timer with the light so it only runs during the "Day" (actually over night)) and an 8" in-line fan exhausting to the veg room, (this is on 24-0) This brought my Flowering temps in line, typically running 77-79* with the light on, 73-75 lights off, It's sometimes a bit high when I go in the room and have the light barrier open for very long, but 83.8 was the high spike last night, 73.1 was the low, and so far tonights temps haven't broken 80* Humidity hovers in the high 30's to low 40% for both rooms.:jointsmile:


My Veg room is running a bit hot ATM since I"m running the T-5's 24-0 over the clones under the table, but it's still an acceptable 83-85* with the light on, I did a ghetto air cooled rig on the El'Cheapo reflector, I've got my exhaust tube plumbed to the base of the bulb and a 6" computer fan screwed to the reflector on the other end blowing right over the bulb and into the exhaust! It actually dropped the light's on temp to 85 from almost 90!:thumbsup:



Here's some pics already.

[canniwhatsis]

Well,... I upped my exhaust tube size to 8" and reduced the bends, it's moving MUCH more air now,... tomorrow will tell what it did to the temps. :stoned:



No new pics, I'll try and take some in the morning and post them in the evening,.... stupid job anyway!



I'm keeping an eye on the local laws since they're trying to change them, and many changed today! ... I might not be able to complete this log if things change the way they are trying.


I'd hate to cut my crop with all I've invested into the rooms and lights,... but hell I've got perfect conditions to grow indoor crops of tomato's, lettuce, carrots, peppers, and spices!!!!


Anyone know what it takes to make a fruit tree produce indoors? (Peach, Cherry, and Apple) :detective1:

[Vancefish]

None of the laws effect you. Only real change(HB10-1284) is in the dispensary areas. Plus you can't sell extras TO a dispensary. SB109 changed what we have to do to get the card in the first place, but not until your next renewal.

What do you need to fruit trees in your house??

You need Bees to pollinate them is about it. High ceilings don't hurt either! Plus you need to investigate what PH, nutes and other stuff each plant would need. :thumbsup: My grandmother grew lemons, peaches AND Plums in her living room over the years. She even bonsai'd a lemon tree. It looked funny when the lemon it grew was bigger then the tree itself!

I thought that's why god invented Q-tips?



As far as the laws are concerned, I'm mainly watching the local city level laws, My city has a ban on dispensary's, but no mention in any of the laws of banning a MMJ patients right to grow their own meds. So long as that's the case and I'm still within my rights I'll continue to work on these beautiful little gifts of nature! :hippy:


Ohhh Yeah, you NEED to call me THIS weekend

[Vancefish]

I dug out your number. However it's 7:45am now. So, I'll wait until your more likely awake! :thumbsup:

[canniwhatsis]
