Another Northern Lights clone has shown roots today! Leaving just 1 Northern Lights, 1 MTF, 3 Sour Diesel clones left!

Pics will be later today!

Not sure if I'll be able to veg the big ones for another 6-7 weeks like planned with the room I've got, they seem to be filling out quite quick!

Joker(bagseed) which was FIM'd last week is now sprouting what looks to be 3-4 new tops???

:peace:

lol growing without tasting first.. takes balls.. But I've heard plenty of good stuff on sour diesel, so it should be good..
Hehe, I've smoked supposedly whats "sour diesel" before, and it was pretty good.

the friend I get my clones from doesn't really keep many bad strains, He's smoked it and had good things to say about it also, From what I hear its more of a uppity day smoke type of high, I'm more personally couch lock Indica type of person, but hey Variety is always good!


Pictures in a moment!

Nothing really new this week,

Current nutes mix: 1/2 Tsp FF Grow Big, 1 TSP Cal-Mag, 3/4 TSP B1 (prep for transplant), 1-2 drops Superthrive / gallon

All cuttings taken have rooted and been planted into starter pots.

Top 44 and Aurora Indica responded real nice to being topped, both have shown nice growth!

Northern Lights, Matanuska Thunder Fuck, and Joker(bagseed) all went into their final homes today 5 gal pots!

Going to try and get my veg room set back up again in the closet to mother out a couple plants and have room to make clones etc etc, the Sun Hut is going to be turned into a flowering room in another 2-4 weeks, or when ever I run out of room!

Decided I'm going to flower with 3, 400w Eye Hortilux Super Ace EN hps conversion bulbs.

Pictures for the moment!

Very healthy looking plants.. And nicely vegged too. Those are going to be some big ass cannabis.
Thanks bro! I'm hoping to get my veg room set back up again today so I can really train those girls out and fill that 4x4 up!

Hopefully 2 - 3 more weeks and were gonna go 12/12 with the biggens!

Ran into some problems today! Saw sights of spider mites again! fk'rs can't leave my shit alone!

Ended up picking up some Safer Brand Organic kill on contact garden spray, Just not sure if I should water it down a bit or not. its pre-mixed and ready to use but figured I'd get some insight first hopefully someone's used this stuff before who can give me some pointers with it!

Picture of the stuff I picked up today!

Thanks for advice in the advance!

Finally got my little veg room set back up again so I can some what try to have a perpetual harvest, or a little less down time between harvest's!

Veg room was the room I used previously for my entire last grow

Exhaust: 2- 120mm computer fans with 6" ducting

Intake: Passive

Lighting: 16 - 100w 6500k CFL's (only 9 right now , Home Depot didn't have any more "Y"'s on hand to make a 4 bulb tree.)

Air Movement: 2- 70mm computer fans

Pics below!

Top 44 and Aurora Indica are going to be my mama's for now, They were both transplanted into 3 gallon Smart Pots today and stuck into the veg room!

The Clones are looking alright, 3 Sour Diesels just hit the ground running, In the pictures below they are only 7 days old, and have shown about 2-3 inches of new growth since rooting 7 days ago, the other ones well... they are off to a shitty start, quite honestly I've got to learn how to clone better and keep em healthier!

The Joker(bagseed).. boy she got tied down like nobodys business today. Picstures below...

I'm planning on switching the 4'x4'x7' tent into a flowering room rather soon, Hopefully within the next couple weeks (as you will see below, CANOPY level = 3'3" and tent is only 7' tall) I've just got to save up for another HPS bulb to stick in my other hood.. Now that the weather is starting to get colder I've realized for the winter that without my AC unit I could still keep temps below 80F with a 3'rd 400W light in there, now I've already got bulbs and would rather not spend the extra ~$100 for another conversion bulb... I've read (can't remember where) that its ok or good to use a 2-1 ratio of hps/mh while flowering or 2-1 ratio of mh/hps while vegging, both spectrums help ??? Need advice on that one for sure! Guess I could buy another HPS if I've got to but eh!....

Matanuska Thunderfuck, Northern Lights, and Sour Diesel are all looking fantastic, growing great and filling out rather nicely! I'm going to start bending branches/tops around to start filling up as much of the space as I can and hopefully lower the level of the canopy a little bit... Last thing I want to do is run out of room in flowering lol!

Height of room vs. canopy~



Any advice, Imput , anything would be fantastic! Thanks! burn on! bongsmiliebongsmiliebongsmilie

Just grab a couple of Son Agro bulbs. They have added blue light spectrum and are usually brighter than hps and work in hps ballasts. I use the phillips Son Agro with a 30% blue ratio. I have had great results with this bulb. Journal is in my sig.

Do you mean they work in MH ballasts?

Currently all I've got is 3 400w MH Ballasts, 3 400w MH Bulbs, but only 1 400w conversion HPS Eye Hortilux Ultra Ace EN

No. I miss read. These bulbs are for hps ballasts. But here is the one I got:
http://www.altgarden.com/store/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=141
and here is the one they reccommended at the store, i didnt grab it because it was to much$.
http://www.altgarden.com/store/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=135
Also for your next ballast purchase, Lumatek sells digital balasts at a good price and they work with either MH or HPS. Here's mine:

Sweet thanks bro! I will have to do some research to see if they make that bulb that will burn on a MH Ballast! + reps!

yea might as well do that cause dam 16-100w CFLs is the same as putting a 1000w hps and a 600w on the side

Yet much cooler and more control over 4 "trees of 4" rather than 1 HID! I'm excited to see how they veg out under those lights, have always used HID lol..

Going to stop at Home Depot again today and grab the rest of the "Y"'s I'm missing!

OoO so are you going to flower with a different light?

Yep! My 4'x4' tent that the Northern Lights, Sour Diesel, Joker(bagseed), and Matanuska thunder fuck are in is going to be converted into a strictly flowering room!

All vegging and cloning will be done from now on in the cfl veg room.

:peace:bongsmilie
