    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    Tucked in the fan leaves to give the side branches a chance to get some light. Everything is developing nicely.

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    Shit! What type of lights were you using and how powerful were they? You got any pics? I've seen random pictures of people plants around the internet but I've never seen any that look like they have much more than an ounce on.

    What set of nutrients and additives do you think are worth using?

    I'm normally a cheapskate when it comes to growing. I buy the cheapest compost the garden centre has and use standard tomato plant feed. I normally grow autoflowering strains so this isn't much of a problem as they aren't alive for all that long. Since I got a HPS setup rather than a CFL one I...

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    They are starting to rocket up now. I've noticed that the stem is thickening much faster than what it did with CFL's which is good coz towards the end of most my grows the plants would start to lean.

    Female Seeds Co. Auto AK 1st Grow!! :D

    In that case I'd move them closer to the lights. If it gets too hot for them you can always move them a bit, it's just trail and error for a bit really.

    Female Seeds Co. Auto AK 1st Grow!! :D

    3ft is a big distance distance. What temperature are you running at? Post some pictures of your setup and I might be able to see some ways of improving the airflow. Have you not got any space PC or CPU cooling fans lying around anywhere?

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    I get more than 10g per plant with CFL's with half the power of my hps. I'll get more than 10g.

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    The are really starting to develop now. The node spacing seems very compact at the moment, lets hope it stays like that :)

    Female Seeds Co. Auto AK 1st Grow!! :D

    So I see you've got a lot of lights, because of this I'd expect the plants to more compact, if that's the right word, if you see the pictures of my grow you might see what I mean. It might just be the strain. How close to the lights are they? Apart from that they look very healthy.

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    I can't quite remember when I planted them but I think they are 14 days old now. Sure, I'll check out your grow :)

    Best techniques for Blueberry - Dutch Passion

    I'm getting some DP blueberry seeds, I'll be growing one at a time. I have a 250w hps and a cabinet I grow in which is about 2ft by 2ft and 4ft high. I'm wondering what the best technique would be: LST, Scrog or fimming. I know certain plants are better suited to certain techniques and grow spaces.

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    I think one have them is female, the pistils are still very small so I'm not 100% sure. I'll know tomorrow though.

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    I increased the nutrient concentration today. Everything seems great so far, the leaves are a nice shade of green and the spacing between the nodes is nice and close compared to what its been like with my previous CFL grows. I'm expecting the bigger one to show it's sexy in the next couple of days.

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    The nutes are really diluted. The soil is crappy so they need it.

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    All is well. I scraped the tinfoil and just painted the inside of the cupboard white. The sound of the tinfoil rattling with the fan was driving me mad. Thought I'd also upload a picture of what my setup looks like.

    Afghan Kush Ryder 250w HPS Grow

    So I got my 250w HPS today. Was a nightmare trying to get the reflector in my small cupboard, I had to cut it up a bit so it would fit. I need to redo the 'door' tomorrow because it was designed for the small CFL setup I had and now because of the reflector and stuff it doesn't quite fit so I...
