so this is my first grow. i have 1 violator kush and 1 arjan's ultra haze #2 that are 16 days old and 2 more violator kush that are at 1 week. they are feminized seeds which i personally brought back from amsterdam.

my setup;

2 1/2' x 5' x 7 1/2 ' grow space, covered in mylar
19" cool tube w/ 6 inch duct
600 watt lumatek ballast
600 watt sunmaster cool deluxe M.H. and a 600 watt eye hortilux super h.p.s.
6 inch can fan 440 cfm
2 small fans for circ.

soil grow, with miracle grow moisture control and i added coarse perlite for added aeration.


nutrients;

sensi cal mg grow mix
dutch master grow max

for flowering

fox farm open sesame
" " tiger bloom
" " big bloom
sensi cal mg bloom mix

so here are the ones at 16 days.......

this is the violator kush,








and this is arjans ultra haze #2,








a few questions. on the first 2 pics of the v.k. on the 4th set of leafs on the far end of the pic. there is a small area with obvious signs of parasite damage. i've looked at a few pics with a google search of common signs of infestation and it didn't help me. i was wondering if anyone could identify what species is the perp?

on the arjans u.h. #2 at first the leafs had some mild deformity. mainly twisting of the leafs. they seem to be doing fine now, but i'm curious as to what causes this.

also, i just transplanted and gave them a bit of the sensi cal mg. i noticed the perlite is turning slightly amber. is this normal?



any help is appreciated......

My leaves twisted like that, but only because they were growing so fast. Couldn't confirm a cause, but I figured it was because they were simply trying to find space to grow out/expand.

I will be watching.

yeah thats what i was thinking. they REALLY took off, once they sprouted.

so this is day 21 after sprouting. the first 3 pics are of the ultra haze #2 on the last one, you can see where it looks like something grubbed on it then bounced. it hasn't spread at all, so i dont think its an infestation.

the next 2 are of the violator kush which seem to be doing fine.

the last 2 are the ultra haze 2 which are not doing good at all. they are 2 weeks old and gave me problems from the get go. one of their sisters died because the seed shell just wouldn't come off. the same thing almost happened to the runt looking one, but i saved it by performing a little surgery. i also transplanted them in hopes that they would catch up with the other 2. which proved to be a bad idea because they haven't grown at all in the past week. any suggestions?

hmm, now that i'm seeing them progress, I think i have it backwards. when i brought these seeds back, I took them out of their original packaging and forgot to label them. d'oh! I thought they would be easily identified by the time they were 10 days or so as one was indica and one sativa. I now think i have 3 haze and 1 kush. any thoughts?

week 4 (about 32 days). went out of town for a few days and left the watering to my roommate. minor setback, some were over watered, some were under. they seem to be doing better in the last few days i've been home though. i'm about to transpplant the 2 big ones and start flowering this weekend.

here's the v.k.





the ultra haze # 2





and the runts of the u.h. 2





.......suggestions? comments?

the seed package said 12 - 13 weeks. I will be patient and expect to go the full 13. just switched over to flowering last night, and the violator kush, I swear, developed female pre flowers overnight. i'll post pics when i get a chance.

o.k. I really need an opinion of an experienced grower or anyone who can call it.....

I'm still not sure as to which strain is which. (and I'm still slapping myself for not labeling the 2 bags when I brought them back). As these plants progress, they show different characteristics, look at the pictures of the ultra haze, they almost look like 3 different strains, no? Anyway, I'm still happy as can be, look at the biggest ultra haze or whatever the fuck she is, 22 tops (11 internodes) at almost 18" and growing. I'll try to post better pics of the female preflowers of the v.k. when I get a chance. Again,
I'd really appreciate some input on which strain is which.

here they are at 10 days of 12/12.



this is what i think is the v.k. it developed pre flowers overnight, and is continuing to develop more.







and here is what i think is the ultra haze. never seen an 11 leaflet, then again, i am a beginner!





and this is what used to be one of the runts. they are both doing great now. you can see part of the smallest one to the left.

looks real nice man, the ones with big leaves look like VK from what I read. I'm thinking of going the same rout but with blue cheese instead of the haze. Any new pics so I can see that VK better :blsmoke:
