1st closet grow - Indica - 400w HPS

I read somewhere they advised NOT to mist the plant. It said that it actually washed off the some of the trichomes. Whether thats true or not I don't know but why take the risk destroying the lil' babies!!! Good Luck!!! :thumbsup:

If someone mist's plants with nutes in it over a period of a couple of weeks you can get nute burn on the leave's, often times the older leaves will begin to burn or yellow first just because they are older leaves and have been exposed to the spraying for a longer period of time then the new growth. It isnt necessary to fertilize a plant through its leaves, professional outdoor gardeners do this to Rhoddodendron's and the like because the roots are very deep.

Thanks for the advice guys. The water I mist with is straight ph'd water, no nutes. Once they all show their sex, I'll stop misting.

day 42...

Alright, I'm in the new place now. Moving in the snow sucks, it just started the day we started moving. It is good for the plants though and the vent is on a shorter duct now so there is a lot more air coming in. I'll get pics of the whole setup later.

The plants are looking better, and they have been on 12/12 since day 40 and I have switched to the Hydro Fuel Bloom 2 part mix. One plant is female for sure (the shortest one), there are quite a few white hairs. The other two biggest ones havn't shown yet. I'll get pics as soon as I can...I dont know where I packed the batteries for my digicam.

The two big ones (from the 6x7" pots) are both 20" and the female (from the 6x5" pot) is 14".

Pics will be added ASAP, but I dont think it will focus all that good on the pistils since the camera is a 2.0 MP.

day 5 of flower...

Well, the software for my digicam is screwed, so it will be a couple days until I can get pics, but I have taken a few.

Now, I have a question. I just started flowering on day 40, they are in 3 gal pots and they are 21", 21" and 17" tall now. The roots are starting to show through the holes in the bottom of the pots. Do I need to transplant again (I would cut the bottom and put each on top of another 3 gal pot)? Or should I wait till they all show flowers and just transplant the females? Also, I have noticed that no new hair have grown on the female since yesterday and the other two still havn't shown any flowers, so now I am wondering if they need to be transplanted before anything new happens. If you guys could help out, it would be great. Thanks.

NOW!!! Get them into their final pot now that will take em' through flower. Try your best to use the same soil mix to prevent shock. I even go as far as to keep the soil in my grow room for 24 hours to assure that the temp. is the same. Good luck!!! :thumbsup:

Cool, thanks alot man...the lights just went off so I will transplant tomarrow. Should another 3 gal pot be enough or should I get 5 gal pots to go underneath? I would just put them into 5 gal pots, but I dont think i'll be able to take the whole rootball out of a 3 gal pot. without it breaking.

Damn, I was hoping I wouldn't have to transplant, oh well, next grow I'm only doing a 28 day veg instead of 40 and putting them right from 1 gal pots to 5 gal.

Im on day 35 and 30 for the other and thinking about starting flowering now...what made you want to flower earlier next time?

Ps. I went from growing 3 plants in 1 1 gal. pot and transplanting the healthiest into a 3 gal. pot ..The other 2 are still in the one gallon and im going to keep them there, im not going to harvest much off them i dont think..but well see what happens..

I remember seeing this method where you cut out the bottom of your smaller pot and set it a couple of inches deep in your new pot. Good Luck!! :thumbsup:

Seems to be the right height for the plant. You get a lot of grow during the first weeks of flowering. Gotta be able to control that height growing indoors.

So you think I should flower now?...The one in the 3 gal pot isnt that tall just really bushy..

I could snap a pic real quick and show you if you want..
