Pure power plant scrog

[loveweed420]

i got my plants little burned by the hps moved it a bit higher. this is my fist time using the hps and don't know how high from the plants i should be. i used the hand test and still burned them a bit how high should it be from th top most of the plant ? im using a 400w hps in a 3*2 foot space. temps 25+/- 2.2 and humidity 35% +/- 3.

i foiler feed into flowering up to the 5th week just use another spray bottle to hose them off good about 15 mins after you spray feed to make sure the chems are gone... deffinitly not a bad thing to do in flowering....

with a 600hps its around 12"-18" so i'd go for somewhere around there, its hard getting the balance. go for the 18" and work down maby, thats what i'd try

Cool, I bet they're looking fantastic now, give us pics

My first perpetual grow babies are only about 3 weeks from harvest and I think I'm turning into a forumaholic to distract myself lol.

 

[loveweed420]

hehehe at forumaholic me too i'm always browsing the web to learn new stuff. i just finish my diy carbon filter i will post pics tomorrow

 

[las fingerez]

cant wait bro 2 see how they have got on under the hps

 

[loveweed420]

good morning mates. hope all of you are ok

so i think the girls have grown quite a bit since last update
I have about 26-29 heads total, bud sites don't know
the screen is almost full so will be switching to flowering tomorrow

Yesterday i made a DIY carbon filter, she's stinking quite a bit.
so i used: chicken wire
some pantyhose
highly active carbon
I took the chicken wire and made 2 cylinders one smaller than the other, no specific measurements depends on your exhaust and how much carbon you want to use. put the pantyhose over the 2 cylinders, put the cylinders in each other and fill in between with carbon. The carbon must be ACTIVE. probable seen the same or similar on other posts. will tell you how it ones I've installed it

As you know any comments/opinions are accepted and +rep for smart ideas/recommendation

 

[loveweed420]

I just gave the girls a little trim below the screen. I was gave them some ferts all 3 of fox farm trio solubles in small quantities didn't know if it was a smart idea just gave it a try and see what happens

 

[evilsheep]

Wow they're looking great dude! If those leaves weren't stretching to reach above the screen, it's probably a good idea to get rid of them. Although be very careful not to over do it mate, only take the ones that are brown, wilted or can't be guided through the screen.

 

[evilsheep]

It does look like time to put those babies into flower, I think you'll get a great even canopy now, keep putting them through the mesh until it's completely full and then let those babies stand up proud
Are you sucking plenty of air through the homemade carbon filter?

 

[loveweed420]

thanks for your input/advise evilsheep . I haven't installed the carbon filter yet, should work fine for its quite big.

 

[las fingerez]

yeah bro thats looking the part now. i'm also with the recommendation of removing the leaves below the screen but i normally wait 1-1.5 weeks of 12.12 as there gonna strech up above the screen in any way.

try to spread them out as much as possible as to get air flow between the branches and u should be right good luck with the flowering stage

 

[loveweed420]

thanks las fingerez for your advise. I am also very looking forward to the flowering stage as i never made it this far ::

 

[las fingerez]

gonna be a whole load of fun for ur 1st time, u got all this to look forwards to...

day 1 12.12

7 weeks 12.12


ur gonna love it

 

[loveweed420]

fuck !! very beautiful las fingerez. is it wrong if the branches aren't all the exact same height ?? i'm trying my best to keep them at the same level but it isn't always easy as not all are growing at the same speed..

 

[las fingerez]

na dont worry 2 much there is something called suppercropping if u get one that is massively bigger than the rest. basicly u just bend it down to canopy level.

and thanks bro

 

[loveweed420]

how much did you get off the ones on the screen ??

 

[las fingerez]

8weeks 12.12 today so i wont know for a month or so lol but i pulled 4.5oz bone dry of a lady about the same size of the same clone. i'm hoping for anything above 3.5oz

edit - can u see all the white hairs (pistols) sticking out every where? = more time lol
