New grow

[fhydro]

Hi there, here are some new pics I've just taken during artificial night. First is skunk special 27 or 28 days of 12/12, the second is my ak47 and sensi skunk, one month of veg, and now 10 days into 12/12. Buds are coming but are not visible yet. I bought a 400 w HPS to enhance my lighting system. So there are 650 w HPS for 8 plants which are all females, 4 skunk, 4 AK. Incredible, very high female/male ratio with good breeders. What do you think ?
I'll keep you informed.

Awsome dude.I wish I could smell those pictures. Hope mine turn out too. I was thinking of trying GH nutes too. Whats the best ? what is PH buffered ?

[sheist]

are the leaves necessary? can ya cut'm off? jus curious.. what are those balls for??

[fhydro]

Yes, i think that the leaves are necessary until they are completely dead. I wish i could remove them. About GH nutes, you must use a PH balanced water, but it's OK. I use now a lot of flora bloom, like 300 cc a week, yes, that's correct, in 72 liters of water every week for 12 plants. They drink all the water. I feed them twice a week. I added air pomps, i have 3x540 liters/hour of air and that's better. And i add a little of CO2 with baking soda and vinegar.
Thanks for comments.

Hi,
i succeeded in making better pics, i hope so for the less, so i want to share them with you. Now, pic 1, the skunk special is 1 month into 12/12. Second pic, a skunk special bended bud. I make that to save heigth. In the same room, i put afghan clones that are 2 weeks into 12/12, showing tiny but cute buds(pic 3). In the other room, following pics, 4 ak47 and 4 sensi skunk, 2 weeks into 12/12 but not showing buds as the afghan, maybe the sativa pheno? What's your opinion? Any experienced AK47 grower ?

Now, the skunk special is 5 weeks into 12/12. 3 weeks left, i hope the buds will be bigger. Do you see the brown pike of the leaves. They are burnt, too much heat ? It smells quite strong now. The last pic is an AK47 3 weeks bud, the trichs are there but the bud is not as big i would expect. Each strain is different. I added a 3 weeks into 12/12 afghan clone. It looks much more like a sativa strain, sativa bud. What do you think ?

6 months of flo for those skunk special. They get bigger every day. On bud close to the wall is getting very fluffy, beautiful. 2 weeks more to harvest those big and dense buds. Tomorrow i stop giving them flora grow for the 7th week. The last week they will drink only water. The grow room smells a lot. The last pic shows the ak47 4 weeks of 12/12. They don't thrive as i would like, for one month of 12/12, they look very thin, now ? They have a lot of trichs, but they grow long but not thick. Did someone grow ak47 before, to tell me? Have experienced a problem of PH low and high EC, maybe they have not recover yet ?
