As you can see, it only just arrived! Unfortunately it's too late to set up tonight, we'll get around to that tomorrow and post an official 'day 1' post.

As for what's going inside, I got a small head start on that. Going with a Wedding Cake by Barney's Farm cause its a celebration of a sorts! Germinated and broke ground today.

Ya overall for that price it's worth it I'd say. The only thing missing is a fan to put inside the tent. Buying all those odds and ends would probably add up to at least as much or more money in the end.

 

[WintersBones]

So it's been a few days since the top got chopped and my Wedding Cake by Barney's Farm is doing good. Just been giving her plain water since transplant. Once the lower nodes reach the edge of the current pot in a week or so I'll do one last transfer into a 5 gal for the final weeks of veg and scrog.


Increased power to 75 and raised the MarsHydro TS-1000 a few inches to encourage a bit of stretch.

 

[WintersBones]

Also in the tent still are my other autoflowers kicking ass. Cheech Biggums here from NightOwl Seeds is the same age as the Wedding Cake, just 23 days and she's spoldin'!

Although we had a slight accident...oops.

She's doing ok though.

Also starting to take off is Purple Scoops from RocBudInc. Happy as can be. Day17 for her.


Also have my auto solo cup Toofless Alien. Doing ok but let her dry out too much earlier in the week and she's been a little sad and slow to recover. Hopefully haven't slowed her down too badly...

 

[WintersBones]

So it's been a couple weeks since the last transplant and my girl is ready for her final pot up. I've got a big 20 gal fabric pot that we'll use, lots of room to grow big root mass and nutes to feed from and room to top dress.

This is the super soil I mixed about a month ago now all cooked and ready to go. Added a bit of ewc and gaia green general to the pot.


Decent rootball for just a couple weeks out of the solo cup.

And into her new home.


Got nice symmetrical growth, 8 solid branches that I'll grow out and weave into a scrog.

Looking good Marshydro

 

[MarsHydrofactory]

great, looking forward to see further update

 

[WintersBones]

So its been less than a week since the transplant and we're getting some real nice growth. About ready to layout the scrog net soon I think.
Few days ago


Today

 

[WintersBones]

Been a little while since the last update. We've had some good growth under the Marshydro and since put up the scrog net and begun the process of weaving the branches. Another 2-3 weeks of filling the screen and we'll be ready to flip.
I also gave her a top dressing of gaia green 4-4-4 and started grow a some cover crop, some clover to help keep the soil charged. little late I know.

 

[WintersBones]

Supercrop time. Starting to be able to actually weave into the scrog now.

 

[WintersBones]

We're still plugging away slowly here. All is good and happy. If anything we're getting too much stalk growth and not enough stretch, but another week or two and I think well be ready to flip.

 

[WintersBones]

The scrog is a bit of a mess and haven't quite filled out the net entirely but decided to flip to 12/12. branches are getting thick and harder to LST and weave through the net, and I'm getting impatient. Will inch power up to 100 as she starts to stretch.

 

[WintersBones]

Still plugging away here. Couple weeks into flower now, starting to see some nice bud development and pistol growth now, still stretching a little bit. Got the light at 100% now and just 8-10" over canopy.

Coming along nicely mate, those TS models really do well in veg...

Clovers?

Source of nitrogen?

Quick question as there are lot's of people here with the ts1000 - I bought mine last month but the driver looks completely different... so is my light a genuine or a knockoff? I bought it from Lazada (Thailand). Thanks (and sorry for hijacking!)
