4 plants from seed experiment

jondamon · Jun 26, 2010

Hey Everyone

Here is a picture update for you all.

Once again my camera has out done itself with possibly the shittest pics i could hope to take. lol

You can take my word for it that the blurry node pictures are of the Pistels. I will try and get some better shots using a digital SLR soon for you all to see clearer pics.

Pics are of all of the plants

enjoy

Also forgot to mention that Pic11 is the Sativa that experienced the Burning from the EC1.8. This plant was not flushed with PLain ph6 water instead this was reduced in EC gradually down to 1.4 and is now sitting healthy at 1.5EC again. I did flush with an EC 1.6 then 1.5 then 1.4 and then just fed with 1.5EC to bring the osmotic pressure in the root zone down gradually over a couple of days.

As you can see from the pic all new growth is coming out green and healthy again.

Your a smart man, seed starts are always better than clones ,thats why your plants look so healthy. Good job

thnx joe but i dont agree with you . the 2 little ladies in the rockwool are clones and are healthy. i think if you treat a clone right they can be just as good as a seed.

Hi folks

Just thought i would share my ideas with you to section my closet.

If i do this it will not be until after this grow is finished.

I will build a shelf all the way along the closet and make sure it is light tight between the sections.
I will use some passive intakes in the flowering section.

Then below i will have a powered intake and exhaust for air circulation.

Comments welcomed on this possible setup.

Hey all here are some more pics for your viewing pleasure.

I have only taken 2 of the plants

The POG and the UNKNOWN2 as the SATIVA didnt need watering today so i will take some more snaps of that one tomorrow.

Just so that you know i am keeping all plants at an EC of 1.5 with the PH around 6.

Today the PH going in was 5.96. Like i said keeping it around 6. I dont mind a little under or a little over but not by too much.

Pictures 1 through to 6 are the POG
Pictures 7 though to 12 are of the UNKNOWN 2

I have also included some under canopy pictures so that you can all see the node structures etc.

The other pictures are of them all taking up loads of space in my closet. I cant believe how big these plants have become.

Anyway if this isnt an advert for all those thinking of getting an EC meter to actually get one then i dont know what is.

Enjoy

P.s i am feeding every single time that i water with approx 6 litres of EC1.5 with ph6 and plenty of runoff.

Holy shit man that's looking awesome. Big Kudos dude!!!!!

jondamon · Jun 28, 2010

Cheers Co1e

getting a grow under your belt is the key.

Also if you can afford an EC meter and digtal Ph meter then you are set.

I might even have to buy more nutes before this grow is finished im getting through around 160ml of nutes every time i water all 3 of them lol.

They are looking very very nice. I got bored over the weekend and made a table top flower cab out of PVC pipe, panda plastic, 6 - 23w CFLs and 6 - 26w CFLs.

and believe me 12 - CFLs put out some heat, good thing I am the master of getting rid of heat.

jondamon · Jun 28, 2010

Thanks for the kudos Bonzi

No misting this time lol

whats with the link to the photography site????

JustinWafroGuy · Jun 28, 2010

Think he was having a pop at your photographic skills lol

Plants look excellent man. I'm thinking of investing in an EC. Does it basically control the room for you?

J must be sampling early.

i am a bit baked off some blueberry cheese.

An EC meter tells you how strong your nutes are by measuring the Electrical Conductivity (dissolved salts) in your water.

JustinWafroGuy · Jun 29, 2010

Oh, cheers man. Don't know what i was thinking of. I had it in my head it somehow turned your fans on or summat when the room got too hot lol, i dunno

jondamon · Jun 29, 2010

HI All

The sativa still does not need watering so i am going to wait to take some more pics of that for you all.

I am here tonight to give you some information on the actual size of these plants now that the 2 week stretch is over.

UNKNOWN2 is standing 24inches above the pot and with a diameter of 19inches
POT OF GOLD is standing at 20 inches above the pot but get this it is 26inches in diameter
SATIVA is standing 20inches above the pot and the diameter is 19inches

POT OF GOLD has really surprised me on this grow considering i thought i was going to loose it early on to damping off disease as the stem was really flimsy if you remember i had to bury it a little in order for it to stay upright.

All the ladies are just that LADIES!

I will get some good shots of the pistels tomorrow for you all if my camera does its job.. I'll check out that website now BONZI to get some tips lol.

Keep on growing everyone.

HI all

Well after 4more hours in my closet the sativa felt ready for some more feed.

As you can see from the pics my EC reduction and then pick up has worked and all new growth is loveley and healthy green

Hope you like the pics

I have also included another full pic of the closet

You can clearly see how my oscilating fan is blowing over the tops of the plants between the tops and the lamp.

Enjoy

J

P.s Bonzi i have tried to get better pics but my camera is so shit its unreal lol

Bonzi Lighthouse · Jun 29, 2010

I was not going to say anything, even though you defamed my DIY skills.

Looking good never the less.

jondamon · Jun 29, 2010

Hey Bonzi i was only joking

I cant believe how well this grow is going so far.

I must admit that its all down to the EC meter and dialing in the environment.

On my next time i am going to take your advice and mount the INLINE fan outside the room pulling rather than pushing but for the time being everything is sweet.

Did you check out my design for a revamp of my closet?
