Hey guys! Just started a new batch. I have Ice and White Widow in this batch. I am getting White Rhino, Snow White, Wonder Woman, Ice, Master Kush and Blueberry Widow ready for the next group.

My room temps average between 68 and 82 degrees f. I have an 8 inch fan pushing out, 6 inch bringing in. Exhaust is run through a carbon filter. I have two lights, 1 X 1000, and 1 X 600, both HPS. 12 plants total. I run CO2 for the first 4 weeks of flowering.

I have a total of 12 plants, started on October 29. Hope you enjoy the pics! I will post all the way through harvest, so hopefully you check back!

Seeya!:bigjoint:

Here is day 14 Flowering... This is an organic grow. Roots Organics soil, and Roots Aurora growing products along with botanicare. Hope all is well, and feel free to post some bud porn while I finish this grow journal. Always nice to wet the appetite!:bigjoint:

Here are a couple pics of week 3 or so. I think day 23 flowering. Plants are shaping up nicely, need to tie them down better next time, so they stay a little more horizontal on the main branches, but they are already very bushy. I do not know if I could have had the space to get around them if they had stayed horizontal.....Anyways, just gave a bit of Cal mag and the Aurora equivalent to molasses/complex carbs. Also including some pics of little vegging ladies.........

You mentioned this thread in my seed review of Nirvana so I had to check it out. Glad I did, this looks like a proper grow and from what you've posted pics of before I'm sure this is going to be something special.

+REP and subbed.

Have you put up any threads for grows yet? I think all I saw was the Nirvana thread. Thanks again, man! These ladies are looking pretty frosty, right now, but I do not like pulling them out to get pics in better light to show it. I might try to snap a couple right before they come on tomorrow. For now, just smoking on some sour diesel a friend brought over for me to try out. Take it easy!

No need to pull them out, your pics are gorgeous. Would dig some SD right about now, but last night I blasted some outdoor Master Kush topped with some Aurora Indica BHO. Then I slept lol.

I am jealous of the AI, I would have been very close to smoking that right this moment, had things worked out. hahaha. I will just have to live vicariously through you for now. The SD was good, a little fluffy, but they just brought over a little taster, since I love trying everything. They also brought over a strain they called "Damn", which was mighty tasty, seemed like a sativa, but they had no idea of what the ancestry was. Good stuff no doubt. I am just really enjoying the ability to TRY all of these strains now, and be able to show my stuff off at the same time. Lots of fun.

Thanks for your posts, man!

Here is a couple pics of the ladies flowering on day 31, right before the lights came on. Hope these are better pics. I also am throwing in some bud pics of an Ice pheno that was different than most I have grown. Thanks again for the positive support on the thread, guys!

looking yummy, and icy lol. What's the feeding regimen right now haz? Are these SCRoG or is that just a lovely display of topping?

Also, I saw that you're using a 1000w and a 600w. Have you thought of possibly going 3x600w for better coverage or is this setup set in stone?

Cheers,
RM

Haha, thanks, that is ice for you. I feed every night, here is my schedule. First 2 weeks of flower, they get Botanicare flowering for soil, 1 tablespoon per gallon, but I taper it up as the 2 weeks progress. I also use light dosage of Roots Organics, mainly bat guano products, so about 1/2 tablespoon per gallon. Week 2-4, I do 2 tablespoons per gallon of botanicare, and the roots goes up to 1 tablespoon per gallon. The roots stuff is NPK and NPsquared. Weeks 4-6 they get 3 tablespoons per gallon, and 1 tablespoon per gallon of the roots stuff. I have a strict schedule, and at the end of every 2 week period, they get a small flush with ph balanced water, and also micronutes like calmag, and a complex carb/molasses blend from Roots Organics.

Now these are all just topped, but after topping, I do a little low stress training with the branches to keep them near the same height, and I tie them down to some extent. Usually 4 branches moving out from the stem, tied down horizontally until their stretch begins. This seems to make them very bushy, and give me a pretty even canopy.

And, I laughed when I saw you suggest the 3 600's, because that is in the plans. I started with just one 1000 watt, which is switchable from MH to HPS. I tried a 600 digital next, and will never go back to 1000. I plan on getting 2-3 other 600's and retiring the 1000 to be a MH only for vegetative. Great suggestion, and you are right in suggesting it. After this grow, I am re organizing my room, and will probably get set up properly then. That cracks me up that we are on the same wavelength, there. You can definitely see these girls have bushed out to where they need another light.

Also, what do you think about the idea that having MH in with flowering, to a small degree, can it help trichome development? Or is this just a myth? Once I change my set up, I am going to try an experiment with this. What do you think?

Awesome man and that's a killer regimen. Pretty aggressive.....I like. I personally wouldn't add the 1000w MH into the mix, but I would totally pre-flower veg with it. I'm very straight line about MH and HPS. They both have a place in the garden, but not together. But that's just me mate, I think experimentation is the only way to enlightenment :)

Thanks for the compliment, the plants seem to like the regimen, and I am certainly not re-inventing the wheel with the nutes. Pretty straight forward, and I like to support Oregon products as much as possible, so my soil, and a lot of the nutes come from Oregon.

As for the MH, I will only be using an old 250 watt MH for the experiment, I agree the 1000 is just too damn big (and expensive) to run. It will be in the veg room only after december.

I would love to see a step by step pic display of a fimming method, if you ever have one. Also, keep me posted if there is anything new you are trying that may be fun, beneficial, or both!
