Merry Christmas Everyone! I decided to start two journals in one. Im just lazy and don't want to make two journals for two different grows in progress. So here is my Vanilla Kush that I started from seed 22 days ago. They are really really exploding with growth the last few days since I transplanted them. I am going to try to leave them in my Grow Cab as long as possible before erecting my other grow tent and transplanting them into 3 gallon containers. I only have one LED light for the grow cab, and I don't want to buy another one. Maybe that one 300w LED can veg them ok in my grow tent until my Pre 98 Bubba is done. We will plan day by day.

Here are some pics with the lights on. I had to treat my girls with Serenade today, because there is still a small presence of PM roaming around. Still under control, but I still have to treat my ladies with Serenade at least once a week. I am probably sure that I have to use it till the end. The good news is after a few hours the nasty smell subsides and my buds start smelling like Bomb ass Bubba Kush again! Buds are definitely filling out and I can see the outline of what the future colas will look like. The tops are no "Donkey dick" colas, because I topped them, but there are more tops on the girls. I heard bubba is a low yielder so I am glad I topped these girls to maximize my yield. Trichs are definitely coming in by the day and with lights off they are so very frosty already! The smell is beginning to be more and more present as I walk into my room before opening up my tent. Its a pleasant Flowering smell, not too noticeable in my house. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and get all the presents you wanted!

Hope everyone had a great Christmas. Anyways, I have been feeding my girls Shooting Powder the last two feeds and it is making my girls fat. I woke up this morning and had to stake the shit out of all my plants because they are getting too heavy and leaning. While I was inspecting, trimming, and staking my plants I took all of them out of the tent. I found some annoying PM on some of my bottom buds from the plants way in the back of the tent. I drowned the shit out of them with Serenade and fed my girls Week 6 Flower Nutes. Hopefully I can continue winning this battle against PM for 21 more days! I hate PM, fuck you! Oh well, just more work to stay on top of it for me. Besides that the buds are starting to turn red hairs, and trichs are getting frostier. Touched the buds today to see if they would smell like serenade, boy was I wrong! Smells DEEEEELLLLICCCCIOUS! Bomb ass Bubba and so very resinous! IM pretty happy with how they are developing, just gotta make sure PM doesn't screw up my last 2 1/2 months of work! Here you guys go!

Actually I was surprised how little they stretched! I started flowering at 22 inches, and they are only 27-28 inches tall! I topped them so they would be fat and bushy

So today I had to erect my other grow tent and transplant my girls from half gallon pots to 3 gallon smart pots today. I transplanted them into sunshine mix #4 with no added perlite this time. I fed them week 3 nutes from House and Garden full strength. These girls are very, very green and healthy. Their main stem is pretty thick and straight. I hope my 300w LED can veg these girls for the next 20 days or so. If I can veg them to be 22-24 inches tall by the time my bubba is done, then I will be able to throw them in my Blackstar tent and start flowering right away. I really hope that is possible! 20 more days of veg will make these girls really tall! I will top them to stunt their growth and keep them bushy. These babies are in the height range of 5-9 inches tall, but that is because I probably transplanted them some shallow and some deeper. I am sure it will all even out soon.

Good Looking grow Sleezy, first time grower, could you help me out a little. I was wanting to go with LEDs, what LED would you recommend for veg and flowering. i was thinking about purchasing 2 blackstar 240 for flowering but not sure on veg. Any thoughts.

Hows it going Leo? First off, how big is your grow area? How many plants are you planning to grow? Second, you only need to use your Blackstar for both Veg and for FLower! That is the great thing! No changing bulbs, just plug and play! I have used all my LED lights from start to finish. My Vanilla Kush grow right now has been using a 300w LED light from seedling, and you can see all the vigorous growth already! You would be ok with 2 blackstar 240s in a 3x3 tent. If you are going to a 4 x 4 I would use 2 500w blackstars. Maybe you can upgrade to two 500s since you don't need a light for both veg and flower.
