Just top dressed all the plants today with some more supersoil and all the plants look about done with the big part of the stretch. The 3d is the only plant that got super stretchy and that white russian just keeps looking better and better. I'll get some more pics up soon.

Okay, finals are over and I got some time to get down in the basement for a much needed update. Today is 30 days since the switch I think and its going pretty well except for I think I need to top dress again, do a good flush and maybe start adding some sucanat.

Oh and just ordered 10 plush berry seeds off attitude today and I think they'll be moving to the front of the line as far as what I'm growing this next round. Guess I'll have to find another spot for the t-5 so I can get them going while I'm waiting on these to finish up.

awsome progress teejay13 looking good

 

[Teejay13]

Thanks hellraiser, my photography and graphics design classes are starting to pay off also. I've always had a real hard time shooting under hps lights the white balance would always come out real yellow and fixing it was difficult till I got shown a few tricks.

 

[hellraizer30]

ok this is completly off topic but about taking pics? Ive got a nikon D3000 with a $800 lens on it! so my Q is
how do you shoot under a HPS and have clear shots what tricks were you talking about?

 

[Teejay13]

I still get the yellow but can clear it up much easier in post now. I shoot in RAW and adjust my white balance in (adobe raw) way over to the blue side of the spectrum, zero out the blacks, and use recovery to get back most of the clipping; then fix everything else in photoshop with levels, curves, color balance, and shadows/highlights in that order I then hit it with smartsharpen. When shooting I shoot on aperture priority maxed out at 5.6 with my shitty kit lens (I need a good macro lens), AWB, I leave my ISO at 100, keep my metering balance on multi segment, and on closeups I always try to shoot in a way that I can use my body and camera angle to shadow out some of the light.

I hope that helps and not off topic at all at least not in my threads.

Here's another pick of the main cola off the White Russian. I'm really impressed with how much weight this plant is packing on for its size.

 

[Teejay13]

Okay, def going to go with 7gal pots next grow. I had to start feeding the sour creams, the white russian, and the cheese as they were still N deficient after top dressing. I didn't feel comfy hitting the 'fade' this early as its only day 37. The Kings Kushes aren't heavy feeders and the 3d is doing okay as well and gets done early so I'm hoping to avoid feeding them. That was my goal starting this was to just add water and the occasional cal-mag if needed but I didn't use 7gal pots and thats on me.

Anyways here are some more pics

 

[hellraizer30]

I just cant seem to get the time to F around with my pics but your are top notch!

 

[Teejay13]

Thanks hellraiser, now I just have to somehow convince the misses to let me buy a $600 macro lens and a ring light so I can throw away my microscope and be able to check my trichs with the camera.

 

[digg]

Gorgeous pics there mate...... I've got myself a Nikon D60 but I'm no pro at using it, looks like you know your stuff!!!

Would love to see some of your pics once you get that macro lens amd ring flash!!!

 

[Teejay13]

Thanks digg, I think I'm going to have to start squirling away some cash. Once harvest time comes around I'll get some really good pics under much better lighting conditions, I love shooting them hanging upside down and drying.
