Ster, nice set up, plants look bushy. Are you worry about the yellowing on some leaves. A lot of stuff happens along the way, you watch see if it get worst and you can tell easier. Watch nutes, if your giving low doses use more. Happy 4/20 bongsmilie :joint:..rw

yeah man ur settup is hella nice, whats thats bulb ur using ?


the thing about superthrive is that they won't tell you what's in it. some proprietary collection of ingredients. I'll pass and go with stuff that i know the ingredients of. also, i can't prove this, but i think my kitty drank some water with that superthrive in it one year... she developed a serious liver problem. We now call her "the $2,000 cat"

" We now call her "the $2,000 cat" EPIC!!!!!

quick update! they are definitely on their way!! The one plant is still a lot smaller than the rest not sure it is going to make it, I'm beginning to think it might have poor genetics or something, just doesn't look like a strong plant but I'll keep her going until she gives up. Today thought I noticed a couple of my leaves on one plant. It almost looks like something chewed on it but I didn't see any bugs anywhere. I took some close up pictures of the damage maybe y'all can identify. And nedguy I'm using Plantmax 400W MH Bulb! As soon as I switch to flower I will purchase a HPS bulb! Take it easy y'all!!! :weed::weed::peace:

Yea I hope he's not hangin out in there waiting... Like a plant ninja!

Now that I conceptualize how your plant got nomed on with no bugs there. I envision this scenario where a caterpillar a spider and a hawk have an epic battle with swords n shit in your grow room!

thanks y'all! damn catadog is right lol!! And I figured since this is my first grow I think I'm going to let them just grow naturally, I'm not worried about my vertical height so I figure just let them grow up!

got bored and decided to take some pictures hah but today is exactly 1 month since germination! I decided to kill the weak plant it just was looking so puny. Decided to put my efforts into the stronger 4 plants. And man they are starting to stink!! I didn't think it would be an issue this early lol! I guess White Widow does that lol! Going to get a filter soon. Much love yall!! :joint::hump::peace:

Hey y'all just wanted to give an update! My plants are 14" tall and have been vegging for 4 1/2 weeks so I decided to start the flowering schedule. Today is Day 2 on the 12/12 schedule. When I went to the hydro store and asked about a scrubber, I told him I have a 6"in line fan as my exhaust and asked which scrubber size would work. Well he tells me that I need another 4" fan to attach to the scrubber, does this sound right?? I feel like he was just trying to sell me an extra fan. My setup is in the pictures below. Anyway I also added a Hortilux 400w HPS bulb to the mix. I'm guessing it will be a few weeks before I see signs of sex but I'm excited hah hoping they are girls!! :weed::hug::peace:

I would like to start off by saying your grow looks AMAZING! Second... Fuck that dude! don't get a 4" fan. If they don't have a 6" carbon filter @ your hydro store you can get one on Amazon (what I did) and it's probably cheaper there. No need for another fan. My next setup I'm going to attach a fan to my filter and then pass it through my lights with a booster in between my lights. That way I filter and cool the lights. If it ends up being too hot then I will figure something else out! But I got a basement calling my name!
