Stealth Cabinet - Hawaiian Snow, Lemon Skunk, White Rhino _DWC_2x125w CFL

What are those wires around your tiny seedlings? It's too early to start training those. I'm also not sure about the idea of having more than one plant in one planter... especially if there is such a dramatic size difference between plants. I don't think it's too late to separate them if you can.
The wires are loose, lets call it encouraging rather than training. And yeah I probably agree with you, but im going for it anyway, 2 in these waterfarms fits easily, 3 however may be a bit tight, the Hawaiian will have a far more developed root system come flowering time but that hopefully wont affect my overall yeild too drastically.

Okay... good luck with that.

Didn't mean that sarcastically. Just wishing you luck. Sorry, it does kind of look sarcastic.
 
Thats cool man, I appreciate the feedback, not sure if anyone else is actually paying attention anyway! Not a lot going on at this point. Both the seedlings, particularly the White Rhino are powering on, no more signs of yellowing leaves, returning to a nice deep green. In other news, aphids (green flies) dont seem to like weed?? A vengeful swarm of them attacked my corriander in a nearby window, I was worried they might make their way into the cabinet which they eventually did, however they had a nice wee munch on a couple of cuttings from regular house plants which I was rooting in the box, I removed the cuttings and squashed all the beasties I could find. Over the following days I kept finding straglers roaming aimlessly on the floor and sometimes on the hydroton, but never eating weed. A blessing im sure you'll agree, but a curious one.

Anyway, peace out all. More pics in a few days, and if anyone is actually paying attention, dont hesitate to shout out once in a while.

I'm following along and subbed! I'm starting my grow very soon (hope to finish up the construction this week, then I'm out of town so I'm planning on popping when I get back, I'm impressed with the small amount of space your using!

Cool man, throw some pics up. In reality I probably could have just bought a small tent, but this was fun to make a reasonable sized space for a few small plants that would fit in any place and if youre on a budget, this is actually super effective. Have a look at my buddies grow, using exactly the same system I am, with a slightly smaller box and just about ready to harvest.

Hawaiian Snow Day 56, White Rhino and Lemon Skunk Day 17
Alreeeet Kiddies! My girls are properly starting to go at it now! Ive just started hand watering the babies with a weak nute solution and the HS is really stretching her legs (metaphorically). I would love to keep them vegging for some time but given the size restraints of the box and the age difference between strains I fear im gonna have to switch them in 10 to 15 days maximum. At the moment im tying her down every other day, and seriously considering taking a couple cuttings from her in an effort to buy an extra week of veg for the wee ones. Any one want a couple HS clones???

Take a peek for yourselves..

Wow - the HS is growing rapidly. I wouldn't wait 2 weeks to throw her into flower. A week tops. The white rhino is looking good too.
 
Hawaiian Snow Day 58, Lemon Skunk and White Rhino Day 19

Yet more LST and I topped one of her branches today also. Vertically she is only 5in high, but would be closer to a ft if she wasn't held tied down. Im trying to root the cutting I took, though not to grow on, just for novelties sake.

Its easy now to see the results of pinching or fimming her. I've tried (in a 1st grade fashion) to show this here. I think had I been a little more precise and not been tying her so agressively this growth would maybe have been stronger by now.

15 days on you can see 4 heads growing from that node rather than 1, I'm tempted to repeat this on lower branches but shes already bulking out rapidly. What do you think? Either way, definately a technique ill be using a lot more of in the future.
Planning on switching her to 12-12 next week, the Rhino and the Skunk will hopefull catch up, the Hawaiian has a loooooong flowering period so who know??

Thats all for now kiddies, stay tuned. Peace!

Hawaiian Snow, White Rhino, Lemon Skunk Day 1 Flowering

Its flower time bitches! Switched out my blue bulbs for my red ones, dumped the res an filled with full strength bloom nutes and changed the timers to 12-12. So technically this is day 0, they'll get a full nights sleep tonight and hopefully soon ill be seeing some pistils followed by some juicy buds!

Here are the clones I took from the Hawaiian Snow.

Immense. I can't get over how fat the White Rhino's leaves are - an indica dominant strain if ever I've seen one.

The Hawaiian Snow is stunning too. Have fun tying her down, duder.

I'm not at all hungover, btw - sign of a good beer.

Organic, no preservatives, no bad shit. Just like home grown, its good for you and the world!
 
Hawaiian Snow, White Rhino, Lemon Skunk Day 6 Flowering

Holy shit!! My bitches have nearly doubled in size in 6 days! Quite a lot of stretching on the Hawaiian but I kind of expected this given the strain. Both the skunk and the Rhino a travelling well to, and not so much smaller that they cant fight for decent coverage. Overall pretty happy so far.

Peace!

So pretty darn chuffed right now, as you would be!

Peace.
 
Hawaiian Snow. White Rhino, Lemon Skunk Day 15 Flowering

Little pre-emptive on the Rhino's pistils, you can probably see in the pic above I have mistaken them for baby fan leaves :( Not to worry, butsites galore on the Hawaiian, and with lights at full height im hoping she doesnt grow too much bigger, she is easily doubled and then some in 2 weeks since vegging, leaving the Skunk and Rhino behind. Worried they wouldnt be getting enough light because of this, I have added another 65w CFL to the side of the box, giving direct coverage to the two smaller plants, this will also act as side lighting for the snow, penetrating nicely into her lower branches.
Another week and we'll begin to see some real action! Until then, peace out.

Great work man, keep it up. Got a stealth grow with some lemon skunk as well, and I'm lovin it
Cool man, throw up some pics. How far along is she? My sk
unk is the smaller one at the front if you hadnt guessed. She is quite alot younger than the snow but I think the new bloom bulb should keep her happy. Hoping to see some dramatic growth from both the wee ones.
