Hey folks

Here are some darkness pics for you all.

Ignore any burnt cripsy leaves they are the result of me upping the EC to 1.8.

I have now corrected the problem but as we all know any leaves affected by the burning will never come back.


Enjoy

The Sativa is gonna be around middle of september.

F sativas, I'm never growing them again, unless it was worth the time, we'll see. I might take some pictures tonight but towards the end they look so sad with all the fan leafs falling off.

Jon are you doing the Rockblock 12/12 from seed? I may have missed where you said her light schedule.

This Purple Power I did 12/12 is gonna be a 14 inch bud. LOL Just not thick but is covered in Trichs. Already some of the hair are turning brown. I haven't seen any ill affects from the hermie I had. Whewwwww.

Good job mate. Keep us posted.

yeah the rocklock is a 12/12 from seed.

she's under my 24w t5 inside my closet which is running 12/12 with the 600w.

when i feel she has enough foliage i'll be getting her under the 600w .

HI All

This is my new grow which i am going to document every step of the way.

I will welcome all comments and suggestions but please do bare in mind that i am using this as a learning curve to see what i can do.

Ok here is what i have.

Closet 8ft H x 3.5 ft W x 7 ft D

I have a fan system set into the door with fans blowing out at the top and in at the bottom. Completed an 18/6 cycle to check temps etc Max 28.5C/83.3F Min 22.2C/71.96F, i also have oscilatiing fans in the room one between plants and lamp and also one up high on the top shelf above my prop shelf.

I have a propegation shelf setup in the room as you can see by the pics with a sunblaster 6400k 24w T5.
I am using a 600w HPS with standard magnetic ballast and reflector.
I will be using 11L ATAMI pots for the entire grow once i transplant out of my party cup style pots.

As you can see from the pics i am using the IONIC NUTRIENTS for coco as i am growing in COCO again.

The pics of my nutrients are self explanatory as you can make out what they are.

Incase anyone cant see or cant be bothered to make out what they are here is the list.

Starting with top line left side
1.IONIC FORMULEX
2.IONIC COCO GROW
3.IONIC COCO BLOOM
4.IONIC BOOST
5.GH RIPEN
6.Bio BIZZ ALG-A-MIC vitality booster
7.Bio BIZZ leaf coat

Bottom left
1.HOT SHOTS NO PEST STRIP (thanks Danthebull)
2.PEST OFF
3.NEEM REPEL
4.MINI FORTEFOG x2 (smoke bomb)
5.ROOT GROW (mychorizol fungi)
6.CANNA Akrtivator (trichoderma fungi)
7.Ph Dropper Test kit.

I also have some GNAT off in a bottle from a friend and also some SPINOSAD (thanks again Danthebull)

Here is my plan.

I am germinating 4 seeds and i plan on vegging them for only 2-3 weeks. I understand this is not the normal thing to do, remember this is my experiment. Once i have vegged for 2 weeks i will be topping the plants to create 4 main colas. I will then allow them to veg for another week under 18/6 to get over the stress. Then at the end of the 3rd week i shall be switching to 12 12.

With this experiment i am trying create a very small plant with hopefully massive colas. I understand that this may not work but i am willing to try and hopefully learn some more about this intoxicating plant.

I am doing this to use up my seed collection which are not gauranteed to be female so all this may be in vain. But as i said i am willing to try and hopefully we can all learn something.

Anyway ive rambled on for long enough and thanks for reading my new thread.

Enjoy the pics.

Ah home for the weekend, few pinch hits and my fav grower is top on the newbie board. It's gonna be a good weekend.

Are your plans to clone that Rocklock or just grow her alone? You know this cause you told me and I didn't listen anyway, staggard starts really suck. Get a couple more going with her... but you may have other plans. My freakin T5's look like some infomercial 45 degree light fixture.

Jon I lucked upon a huge bakers type wire rack today. This thing is about 6 feet tall, 4 foot wide with 2 foot deep wire shelfs. The whole thing is heavy guage wire. Guy that gave it to me use to own a nursery and said he would give me some lights too. Probably can't use the lights unless its a HPS or metal. But this rack dude has scrog written all over it. Got me thinking. LOL

Got them mason jars clean. Your getting close now right? Talk at ya bro.

Oh man was the Rocklock pic taken with another camera? It's crystal clear. Love to see some close ups like that of your buds.

Im trying with the buds but its because the ROCKLOCK is under the T5 not the HPS at present. HPS runs on a magnetic ballast. So i get the lines across the pics.

I'll get some good DIGITAL SLR pics before harvest i promise!

Oh yeah check the pic below!!! lol

READY AND WAITING!

Just planning on growing the rocklock as is.

I just wanna see what happens on a 12/12 from seed so i figured it wouldnt be too bad as once these grows are over i have to redesign everything again lol.

I've got three of those lock type jars but they are stainless steel with glass top. Pretty sure that will work too. Love that idea of not having to screw each lid back on twice a day.

Seen no ill affects from my hermie. And Purple Power 12/12 from seed is starting to have a couple amber hairs.

Sorry bro LMAO on the redesign everything comment. You're an engineer or some kind of tech guy, something like that I bet. Me too bro always looking for ways to make it better, "I can keep that from happening again by....." LMAO

But not only that at present the closet is in the spare room. I am moving the closet door so it is then in my bedroom as the mrs has a bun in the oven so i decided that once the door is moved its all getting redesigned lol.

New RVK new Cooltube Carbon filters maybe even Co2 i dont know fully yet. lol
