4/10/11 Update: When I left for the other end of the state yesterday morning my four Girls where five inches from touching the bulbs Upon Coming back they where basically brushing the bulbs with the tips. AND!!! I saw three or four white hairs forming on a few of the nodes, not to mention I need to work on a better air scrubbing system as my entire apartment reeked of weed lol.
Temps: 68-79
R.H : 16-28
PH : 6.3

Looking good! That's the main reason I chose Indica over Sativa is the shorter flowering time. It's only 2-3 weeks longer though. As far as smell goes. I have never read anywhere of anyone using a Hepa Filter with good results. I am using my home made carbon filter and I don't smell anything til I open the cab door, but you gotta have a good exhaust fan to pull thru the filter.

Thanks finally got over the nitrogen issue. Yeah i shoulda bought a carbon scrubber, It has a pretty powerful fan on it so I think im going to build a carbon filter and see if I can rig it up to be used by that fan. They are finally hitting the stretch and starting to grow a ton of pistils, soon as the wife wakes up I can pull the door open and go check on em lol.

Wow look at those girls. They are getting big bro. The leaves look exactly like my RBC's. I have one in the flower room now it is tiny though but will probably stretch a good amount and hopefully produce a good amount of bud it's been under 12 hours of darkness for one day. I keep wanting to throw it back in the veg tent but think it's hormones will get confused and don't want any hermies and so far never had one. I still have 3 RBC beans and 5 Ice beans all feminized and one RBC and 2 Ice mothers going so it'll be alright.

Keep up the good work bro those are going to be some monsters.

Thanks bro, Hopefully this week I can add a couple of CFL bulbs to the mix to help them pack on that bud weight or at least get more light to the lower bud sites.

4/12/11 Update: came home and once again they've grown around three inches in the last day. Temps where a bit high today but not to rough, Going to start dropping the night time temps to the mid sixties to coax out some purple shades when they start budding.

DSCN0412.jpgDSCN0413.jpgDSCN0409.jpgDSCN0408.jpgDSCN0410.jpgDSCN0411.jpgOkay so we are at week two into flowering and I decided give the girls a cut and get rid of the lower growth that wasnt growing any pistils or would probably just give me popcorn bud. Did that my last grow and all the top buds where super dense compared to previous grows so hopefully same results here. Plus much better light penetration etc

Ladies are looking great! +Rep.. Did you decide against a Scrog? Those babies are gonna get bigger and taller So you might wanna look into getting side lighting if you don't do Scrog, if not then all your lower buds will be popcorn. Need to open it up for the inner growth to get some light too. Just my 2 cents tho!

Yeah I played with the idea of a scrog but I realized that closet was to small for me to build a net in and still be able to move around the plants etc. I did train them a little bit with the zip tie method but not much more. It actually looks like I'm going to get a tax refund this year so sometime this month I will add four to six cfl bulbs to help out the t5's. thinking of putting the four bulbs up top and two of them lower that way the middle and bottom all get enough light. Looked at them just before the lights went off and could see the very beginnings of bud formation. Only another two months to go before harvest!

4/15/11 Update: Did a res change today, took the girls up from low strength flower nutes to regular strength. When I pulled the top off you could see the oldest and longest roots had taken on a tanish yellow color BUT there was a mass of new roots growing on each plant that where all bright white and healthy. Also the wee lil buds that where there yesterday have gotten abit bigger which is good. Currently keeping the t5's about two inches off the tops and everything seems to be doing fine.

DSCN0414.jpgThought I would post a picture of the Bong that we bought a few weeks ago. We have dubbed it "ling ling" from the show Drawn Together.

Sounds good bro. You'll have some large stinky buds packing on weight before you know it. I'm having some bad luck lately.
yeah so far the buds are doubleing in size every day! From mys screwy method of topping it looks like I have between nine and twelve main colas all together.

The "A-Team" lol

I use Hygrozyme to keep my roots white and healthy
lol my stoner man cave. How does it work? can you foliar feed with it?
while where on movies any suggestions for some classic stoner movies? havine a 4/20 party this year trying to find some good stoner entertainment. Thanks for stopping by, haven't seen you in awhile.
Oh christ before I forget. two of my four plants have leaves that look bitten and burnt. but its only on the side of the plant right by the box fan. this is the only thing I can think of that would be doing it. am i on the right track here?

Do the Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon, Wizard of Oz Sync.

You just add Hygrozyme to the rez, not a drop of water is used in my op that does not have Hygrozyme in it.

Your looking great dude, just keep in mind T5's limited penetration compared to HID.

hehe I said penetration

That's a good one I think ill give it a try.

Hmm well if you say it works I might just pick some up next grow and see how it compares to cannazym. what line of nutes do you use btw?

Yeah to many heat and exhaust issues for HID. Gonna buy six cfl bulbs later this week and hope that helps out some.

Lol, just read your signature. somehow I believe someone really said that.
