First Grow in a cardboard Box!! (Thc Bomb, Early Widow, Moby D!ck)

[brahbrahbinks]

I have a stealth grow going on the the back of my closet so I dont have much space to work with. Right now the plants have maybe a clearance of maybe 21" and I have 3 plant going in there at an 18/6 veg cycle. The early widow is the largest and oldest being about 5 weeks old. The thc bomb is the one in the same 3 gal pot and is about a week old. The moby dick or id like to just rename White Haze for obvious reasons is the youngest at about 2 days. Early Widow was just fim'd so delayed growth is expected.

Grow Medium: 1/3 Compost, 1/3 Foxfarm Ocean Forest, 1/3 Perlite, Bat Guano, and a mixture of micro nutes, humus, and microorganisms "marinated" into soil before planting.
Lights: As of now 2 42watt 2700k and 2 26watt 6500k (I just ordered 2 65watt 2700k and 2 65watt 6500k) but can only run 4 lights at a time so Im thinking of strictly blue spectrum for veg and red for bloom (lmk if a mixture for both is best cause im clueless when it comes to best light spectrum ratio).

Nutes: (trying to be as organic as possible but at least 3 are synthetic)

nice little setup you got going. subd
keep us posted

More Pics: Just foliar fed them some Dutch Master Liquid Light, still I feel the early widow should be bigger given its age but the pot size and lights play a huge factor. Ill update when I get the 65watt cfls. First pic is where I fim'd it. Im thinking about flowering soon so Im leaning on maybe picking up agricultural organics Bloom product line. They're known as the yellow bottles and are quite expensive, however I have a local store that can get me their ooze and phat for $50 ea. Still thats even steep and I might just get something from foxfarm or humbolt. lmk what you guys think?

I think its early to be feeding nutes already, they look good but be careful, nutes early will hurt more than help in a mix like yours

i hate to look soo stupid but what are you all referrinf to when u talk about "Nutes"

Nutrients. What your feeding to them other than water.

 

[Stemp]

Nice grow. Did you start all of them from seeds?

 

[brahbrahbinks]

yessir, it started out as just one plant but then I realized the yield would not be worth the wait so I added the thc bomb and the haze. Im going for at least an oz. but who knows I might get more. Fingers crossed.

Im feeding them at the recommended dosage put on the bottles. Keep in mind that there are 2 plants in one pot so Id prolly have to water twice as much and it would need more nutrients too. Plus and correct me if Im wrong but if you look at the early widow, the bottom leaves are alot paler than the top which are signs of either lack of N or light.

Gonna watch this subbed

Updates:

Showing slight signs of nute burn so I am just using water atm.

 

[brahbrahbinks]

Just got my grow lights today so as of now Im running about 200watts in there.

Updated pics:

This is the early widow. 2nd pic is where the new tops are forming. So far week 5 now.



Thc Bomb: 2 weeks old


White Haze: 1 week and its growing FAST, theres browning on the edge of one leaf if you can see it. Nute burn or bugs? I hope not.

Updates




Early Widow: 6 weeks and 2 days. Some of the top fan leaves got burned by the lights, lucky for me I was home to stop it from frying. She popped out some pistils so yes its definately a girl.


White X Haze: 2 weeks old and looking real GREEN.


Thc Bomb: 3 Weeks old, slow growth almost stunted. Remind me to never put 2 plants in one pot.

Im thinking about switching to 12/12 soon because of space issues. Anyways what I really what to know is how much growth actually goes on when it starts flowering. Do they continue branching out or does the stem just get taller?

Nice grow man, I came here for the thc bomb but it looks stunted now

 

[brahbrahbinks]

Yea I was looking forward to smoke the the bomb the most. Its really sad and I probably can't transplant cause the roots are tangled. I do have 3 the bomb seeds left so that'll be my next grow each with there own pots of course

 

[Kronnix]

looking good
they grow lots during the first 3 weeks of flower, both taller and bushier
best of luck to you

 

[brahbrahbinks]

that's exactly what I want to hear. Switching em over today, fingers crossed

 

[OldLuck]

Hope the bomb plant shakes off the stunt and turn out nicely. Have 4 that just broke ground 2 days ago. Sub to see how yours turn out. What is your temp/hum?

 

[brahbrahbinks]

its a steady 83 throughout the day, not sure ifs that's too hot but the plants have been growing in the environment for weeks. I have no idea what the humidity is but I'd say its low because the leaves curl upwards and I read somewhere that's a sign on low humidity. The slow growth is probably due to a constricted pot and I having really dialed down on my "green thumb". I'm still in the learning process and I already know my next grow will be better.
