First Ever Grow: 2 Years of Lurking

[kolz2788]

Pic 1 shows the LST'd plant which made a come back.. Had some lockout issues with it earlier.. I added a comparison picture to show how the plant was looking 9 days ago

Pic 3 is the plant which was Fimmed.

Pic 4 shows the clones together. Started to LST them since they were growing too high

pic 5 is one of the clones by itself.

Pic 6 is also a recovering plant which ran into a little bit more minor lockout issues..

Pic 7 is the topped plant which ended up with 3 tops.. also being LST'd

Sorry for the lazy write up..

Thanks man, appreciate it.

As for the fan.. not 100% sure on the size, tried looking through my e-mail but couldn't find the purchase. Bought 2 of them for $1.99 each. I think its 120mm. About 3"x3"

Fed pics 1 and 6 above with 1/2 str protekt + 1/2 str foliage pro...

gave pic number 3 up there a nice watering

Clones seem to be needing a higher concentration of nutes. The lower leaves are yellowing quite a bit..

Hey guys. time to update.

Watered the clones today.. made it rain on one of them with 5.8pH rain water.
I've included some pictures of the wild growth which has come from my FIMMING.
It seems like I'm a little behind for day 41.. oh well, lessons have been learned and I'm confident that my next go around will be much better..

Pics 1 and 2 show the FIM job I did.. I believe there's 8 new tops..
Pic 3 was previously my smallest plant.. looking better now.. I've added a comparison pic from 1 week ago (pic 4)
Pic 5 is my Topped/LST plant which has a four way LST right now.
Pic 6 is another topped plant which has a 3 way LST right now.
And lastly picture 7 is of my clone which I made it rain on today..

It's getting exciting! Some of the plants are just exploding with growth.
Although I have run into some problems. I've attached pictures below of the problem.

Picture 1 is a healthy and vigorous plant.. I believe is has 8 new tops from the FIM i did to it.
Pictures 2 and 3 show the problem. This same plant ran into the same thing about 3-4 weeks ago.. The middle leaves have brown spots and are turning yellowing. I'm thinking its another lockout but I kept my pH in the right zone... Any ideas??

Pictures 4 and 5 show another issue I've run into. The leaves are wilting downwards and some have discoloration as picture five shows.. Anyone know whats going on here? I'm thinking it could be from the smaller sized pot this one is in...

Picture 6 is one of the nicer plants(nicer because its a lot more symmetrical looking)

Picture 7 is a pic of the clones even though only the front one can be seen

are you still vegging i didn't catch when if you flipped the lights

roger that will probably keep vegging for another 1.5/2 weeks

Transplanted picture 4 above.

It seems like picture 2 above showed some slight improvement even though there's some rust in the middle... I fed her yesterday so maybe it was deficiencies? (doubt that though) I'll wait till tomorrow and probably flush.

Update:
Added some additional lighting. I plan to switch to 12/12 by the end of next week. I fed all the plants today with 3/4 str foliage pro + 3/4 str protekt.

1st pic is the new setup.

Pic 2 is the FIMMED plant which is doing very nice.

Pic 3 is the topped plant which has 3 tops and was recently transplanted into a larger pot.

and lasty, pic 4 shows the clones(more of the back one).

 

[kolz2788]

Planning to flip to 12/12 on Saturday

Pic 1 shows everything.

Pic 2 is one of the topped plants which ran into troubles last week... Flushed and is looking good

Pic 3 is the FIMMED plant doing well

Pic 4 is another topped plant which was transplanted last week.

Pics 5 and 6 are the clones..

Lastly pictures 7 and 8 show the plant which I'm worried about.. The leaves are drooping pretty bad as shown in the pictures... Is this overwater?

Over and out

Took 3 clones from one of the White russian clones. Placed them in Jiffy pellets.. hopefully I did it right.. seems like the clones were not sitting very tightly... Fingers crossed.

 

[kolz2788]

Decided to try Jiffy Pellets for cloning. Got 12 of em for 2 dollars along with some rooting hormone powder. This seemed a bit easier then soil so I'm trying this first and if it fails I'll go with soil cloning.

Ghetto clone box... 1 26W cfl.. Panda film on some of the sides... 2 clones in this box and 1 is in my wardrobe box. All covered with bottles to keep humidity high

 

[kolz2788]

currently sitting in their first 12 hours of darkness... 2 of the clones seem to be surviving and doing well. The other was trashed because the jiffy pellet became too lose when inserting the clone so it didn't really sit properly... I'll probably give a take a shot at cloning 21 days into flower... Really hoping for some females out of these bagseed!

I'll do another update tomorrow

Day 53. Flower Day 3.

sprayed all the plants with 1/2 foliage pro + 1/2 protekt.
Still looking for signs of sex *fingers crossed*.... Here's some pics

 

[holycheezit]

Plants look really good hope you get some girls.

 

[kolz2788]

Thanks bros so far 2 out of the 4 seeded plants have shown female.. The clones were already female and they have shown also
