RIS - On-going grow log

[RIS]

I wanted to make a single log with all my grow's from here on. I'll start with the essential info, last run, and finally on to my current run.

Basic Info:
4x8 grow space
AC Infinity S8 intake and exhaust
Lights: 315CMH (working on a fix for my other lights since they run extremely hot )

Last Run: Gelato 33
I got clones that were from a flowering mother. Got them back to veg but was given replacements from the same buddy.
Gave all away.

This run is a little different as I was given plants that were fairly established already and so I have had them in veg for 2 weeks since I received them.
2x White Tahoe Cookies
2x Black Jack
2x Gush Mints

Pictures from this second run will be posted shortly they are sleeping right now.

Here is a picture of each strain and then one of the whole lot.

I think I might be ready to switch to flower. Update on the whole canopy - temps are getting hot. day up to 86 lights on and 78 lights off. I am running the lights until 3 pm and then back at 9.

Light has been switched to 600w hps can go to 750w if the outside temp is below 88 Degrees

Nutrients have been purchased for the flowering stage.

was deficient, I still haven't gotten very good at nutrients, but they have gotten their color back. I was feeding the same to all and only the white Tahoe cookies were showing signs the others were doing ok.

I had yellow leaves kind of like that it was the dreaded mites. Nightmare

I had my fun with the pests early, they were the bane of my existence for that time. I've been pretty lucky this round.

I agree, my first grow and I got them in my tent. I think they were in the soil ffof, my friend gave me 3 clones and had no issues but he grows in some coco mix. He is experienced and I am not. It was devastating to see my first grow turn to shit. I nuked and sprayed. They laughed

 

[Matt0]

Mites are ruthless, I moved them outdoors and blasted them with water twice a day and my leaf blower at night. No that they are flowering I hit them 2-3 times a day with the leaf blower. I swear it seems to be working.
Anyway, best of luck with your grow brother.
It has kind of turned into an obsession lol. I understand now why people love to grow

 

[RIS]

Absolutely, good luck to you as well. I can vouch for the leaf blower method

 

[Matt0]

Sick bro, I will be watching your progress!

 

[RIS]

It’s working it’s way back to green.

 

[Matt0]

How's the girls progress?

Your timing is impeccable, I decided to do a weekly update each Saturday. Thanks for sticking around!

Stretch is hardcore, I feel like they are getting taller by the hour. Starting to see some flower They have responded great to the nutrient schedule. Color is coming back to that beautiful green. The tent has been in the 87's-90's during the day since I'm in a garage with no insulation. My humidifier died on me so it's not helping with the environment. So far no big issues to report other than it being hot as balls.

Not sure what I'm going to do but might move the tent into the house.

ill post pics shortly

 

[Matt0]

Right on brother! Are you in soil?

I like how they are all in chairs in a circle lol, it's like they are in rotation.... just getting ready for their future
