Better days now on with Buds

[sarah louise]

Hi there LSY, took me a little while to find your current log... led's now, that's interesting. How many lights are you running?

I can't open up the pics ATM... internet access is shaped. Blew the month's quota downloading Bob Ross videos... Headshake would be proud. new quota starts next week so I'll have a closer look at the pics then... looking good in the thumbnails though.

All the best mate, sara.

Hi ya Sarah, iv been thinking about ya when i saw that big storm heading your way:wtf:so im glad to see ya posting:hippy:

This set-up is a temp thing to finish this plant up and the lights are not hanging ATM, but sitting on ends doing there thing well. Yeppers im running 2 150w LED BARS. They are incredible so far, but will work better when i put them in my tent. I have a few vegging under CFL's now in it. Its not a huge tent, 2 x 4 x 5', but im thinking a Scrog or some lollipop will work well in there. And i can be sure that i dont get ripped again, not that i wont hide a couple some place around a good hiding place. Plus i thought about keeping them really small, yet be able to get some nice colas from outside.

All the best mate, sara.

I have this plant in the problem section as it took a bunch to get this clone healthy enough to put into 12/12. It cam from the NL i had outside last year that got sick with something i never figured out, but took this clone before signs of the moms issues. Plus i had a mite problem, but wiped them out. I always thought if i got mite issue i would need to just control them, but the plant got fried a bit after a folier spray, which after cleaning up the dead leaves there were no sign of them. I used a few other methods before this which really helped, but a heater to lower the humidity and taking the very top of the soil off each week and replace helped i think too.

I will be posting new pic's soon and cant wait to finish her so i can work from the tent. This will be much easier for me and i cant wait to see these LED'S in there. If ya peek in the''problem section'', you can see how the lights are set-up for now, not enough room to hang them in the current area and the tents full of Purples

Thanks for stopping in and stay safe:hippy:

Well if you look at the third pic, i circled the issues i was worried about in the ''problem section'' and at this point im only worried that it will not allow the buds to fill up properly. This happen to the mother plant, but was much worse. As you can see im getting some color in there now so the buds are not just all white. The plant seems happy even tho the leaves are not pointing straight up because the lights are not hung over the plants. The are sitting on there ends with there fans on top also a fan in the area keeping them cool. It took so long to get the plant healthy enough to flower, i ran out of space above. But this is getting her flowered up well as you can see. I really hope they fill in more as the third pic shows my concern for nice compact buds at the end. I am hoping 3 weeks to go with 10 days after that il flush her out.

Now the 4th and 5th pics are the purple i put in 12/12 to give more room for the others. It will get re potted soon as it should have been done last week.

But the last soil i bought, i mixed with an amendment that my hydro guy said not to add nutes till flower. I was told to mix the 5 cups with 5 gallons of soil and it would get me to flower. So i am trying it out on 5 in veg now and 3 with the soil iv been using with the Earth Juice line. The NL is only getting the bloom for the most part, but meta-k about once every two weeks for the past month. I have stopped giving any Nitrogen to the NL, i had been giving small amounts once a week, i hoped this would help build the buds up, just hope im correct by doing this. The plant has been in 12/12 for 6 weeks now and i should think it has enough Nitrogen in it to get me through, i hope?

Im new to keeping a good nute schedule, but iv been giving a gallon a week to the NL and if its droopy, i give plan water. But for the most part it gets 1 gallon per week and seems happy with this so far. I need to put something into the pot or tie it up because its getting a bit unsteady in its pot. I could add more soil to help it, but i would like to re veg it and try it outside again this year and like the nice trunk it has. With its trunk i can keep it up off the ground, which will help keep snails off and i can use the foliage just above it to re veg it, if a re veg can be re vegged? I dont see why not, Rusty?

Thanks for stopping and any advise with the nutes would be great, things will get more easy once im in only the tent.



Peace:rasta:

Ok i meant to say what im using in my soil as iv been told i dont need to feed till flower, its called Bio Tone.

Anyone use it? I have some with it and some without, it was my hydro guys idea. He uses it and really likes it, plus he gave it to me for free to try out:hippy:

I havent seen it on here being used or i missed it so if you have used it, id luv to know how well it treated ya:thumbsup:



Thanks:rasta:

Thanks for stopping in man:thumbsup: I sure hope its good, iv spent a lot of time getting her healthy enough to get it to bud up. The first plant from seed was killer, but this came from there vegged mom that got sick outside. So im hoping i am not going to have the same problems.

I really worried that the buds are not going to fill in like the original plant from seed. That plant was killer so im going to be looking for more NL to get started soon:hippy:

Well the tops of the NL is getting bigger as you see in the second pic, which im call it my 3 headed monster, lol. The first is the NL plant showing all the bud growth from the bottom of the plant to the tops. Im hoping that the yellow leaves are just using up the nitrogen, because last two feedings was only the bloom nutes. And if you notice the leaves looking droopy, its because the lights are placed in the area vertically, because of height issues. They are sitting about 18'' away from the NL plant and the smaller purple a bit closer.

The purple was re potted for the last time and had to use the Bio Tone mix, because it was all i had. So it will only get water till finished, in less i can sneak in some bloom really close to the end. I think the Bio Tones N-P-K is
4-3-3, but hoping im not going to get that Nitrogen taste after harvest. Thats why im only giving water plain through budding. But Will see as iv not grown it before so im not sure how long it will take to finish. But as soon as the NL is done the purple will join the others in the tent to be finished.

The last pic is what i have been vegging, but had problems while they were in my box before getting into the tent. I had a 6500k flood light in the box which just made them stretch bad, but after i put my cfl lights in the box they slowed their stretching. But the damage was done, so i re potted as soon as i could and they look better, not perfect. But once i get the 2 150 w LED'S in there, i expect a lot:thumbsup: But this is all new to me so il be learning with this first tent grow, yet still expect a killer grow. Im just an optimist so i go into everything with this sorta thinking. I think its better to go in with a positive attitude, just my personal way of looking at anything. If i mess it all up, i will take the blame and learn from it. But im sure il be asking for advise at some point

The plants in the tent have been re potted two weeks ago and im seeing roots popping up through the soil. So a re potting will be soon for the ones in the black pots as they are all in the Bio Tone. The back left and green pot are getting the Earth Juice line of nutes. All are purple strains, but one which is a seeds from last years outdoor grow, its WW:thumbsup:. Its a trial thing even tho im using more plants in the Bio Tone then not:wtf:

I may try and fix up a Scrog, but need to be LSTing here with next re pot. I have added some soil to the pots to give me a bit of time in those pots so any roots will be covered. Well i think thats it, but any questions or ideas, please feel free
