Trailerparkboy's Blue Diesel 400 watt grow

[trailerparkboy]

Alright so i have my 2nd grow up and running 4 Blue Diesel under 400MH/HPS convertable.
This is my 1st grow with this light my last grow i got about 2 oz off 2 NL grown with cfls so im pretty stoked to c how this turns out
Anyways heres some pics at 10 days from sprout and the technaflora nutes ill be using again

Also im a little worried space might be an issue this time so would topping b a good option for me??

 

[jumboSWISHER]

hell yea bro, ur goona b HAPPY with the diffrence of switching to a 400w. good lookn sprouts man!

 

[jumboSWISHER]

topping is a very good option in any vertical space problem. tho they will get alot bigger around when u top, so keep tht space in mind to. i personally like to top above the 2nd node, and LST the 4 main stems. and sumtimes top those 4 shoots if they get to tall

 

[trailerparkboy]

thanks man i had a about 80 watts of cfl on as well to start with but ive taking them off all but the smallest and for flowering ill stick (4) 105 watt cfls around them for side lighting

 

[trailerparkboy]

ya i have lots of space just not vertical i might be ok with out topping but y fuck around ya know

 

[jumboSWISHER]

honestly, with 4 plants i wouldnt imagine they would need side lighting untill they get bigger. but use it if ya got it right? lol more the merryer =)
well untill a point, but tht point is hard to reach haha

ya i have lots of space just not vertical i might be ok with out topping but y fuck around ya know

exactly. you never know... haha
but from my experience iv noticed my topped,LSTed plants have yeilded alot more then my "naturally" grown plants.

 

[trailerparkboy]

my seeds wernt femmed either so i doubt ill end up with 4 plants but ya i figure ill use the big cfls in the last month or so of flowering for that lil extra hah

 

[jumboSWISHER]

yea ya never know tho.. my first grow i got way lucky. found 2 bagseeds ona road trip, and they made it 400 miles home and both ended up fem. fucked myself up by expecting one of em to b male haha had to remake my whole setup pretty much

 

[trailerparkboy]

ya i got lucky the 1st go round to 2 outta 3 were girls haha ill b super happy with 3 this time

 

[trailerparkboy]

I know this isnt somthing u can exactly predict but anybody wanna ballpark how tall these will get if topped id like to keep them 2ftish

im subd. cant wait to start my 400 watt grow.

 

[trailerparkboy]

right on bud its my 1st time with the 400 but im lovin it what u gonna b growin

 

[jumboSWISHER]

about the height, if sativa your plants will double to triple there size when u switch to 12/12. indicas usualy about double in height.

 

[trailerparkboy]

Its a more indica dominant strain so after i top ill veg til around a foot then start to flower thanks for the help already im still gettin the hang of it

 

[purplecream]
