Arjan's Haze #3 - 1st CFL grow
- Thread starter poutineeh
- Start date
this is of the first plant. just tied her down. i strengthened the main stem way too much (almost a quarter inch thick), so bending it was a little difficult and probably stressful.
plan is to just let it grow out, maybe 2 more nodes, and then tie it down again and the it will probably be time to flower (yeahhh!!!)
also did a pH run off. i collected too much water for the test, but i got a reading of 6.1. so i think im in the right ball park. ill keep giving it molasses to help stabilize the soil, and also feed it water that is pH'd between 7.2-7.8 to help raise the soil pH, which i hear can get acidic during flowering.

this is the first plant. its growing very well, and faster than the other. this is probably since its a little taller and bushier, and gets more light.
some of the tips got burnt from touching the lights. i pushed down all the leaves to make it more dense, and have less branches sticking straight up into the light.
i also just did another section of LST. i am really amazed at how stout this plant is for being like 80% sativa. its just branching out like crazy, which is great.

this is the other plant. looking just as healthy 
and with less burn marks
future plans. i gotta move the plant to the new place tonight or tomorrow. ahhh, its here hehe. should be an interesting car ride. there is only one guy in the house right now, so it should be a little easier sneaking it in.
besides moving my setup, i wanna try feeding them some beer. i heard that works great. molasses is working real well right now.

just stopping by to bless your soon to be girls
updated august 19th.
im starting to forget which plant is which. only things i have done since the last time is tie down the plants again and work on how i want to position the fans etc. to get the temperature down
i also did the move into the new room, which went very well. it was heavy lifting all my crap, but there was no trouble. plus, my room is on the main floor, so it stays much cooler, and my door has a lock on it. im still slightly paranoid when people come in the room.

hey thanks. the bigger plant looks great, and there isnt anything i can see wrong with it except burn marks from me being careless with the light. the smaller plant, however, has some lighter green/yellow starting to show in leaves. i am not sure if its a pH problem, or too much nutrients and a flush is needed, or if not enough.
i think im going to slightly flush my plants next time i check for pH in a few days and watch to see how they react.
i think im going to start flowering in 5 days, just due to time constrains i will be under during the last part of flowering. the beauty of this haze, though, is that it is supposed to be extremely short for the amount of sativa that is in the plants genetics. and i am lst'ing it, so height shouldnt be a problem

That's what they say.
I'm really looking forward to watching your grow.
Looking good so far so good!
always glad to have viewers. ill update new pics and pH readings i think on friday.
plants are starting to look slightly bad. i think its because i have tried to do too much to them. i sprayed the leaves with a small amount of neem oil, which may have been a mistake, seeing as there is no mold or spider mites. im trying to correct all that right now.
anyway, the big plant has a run off of about 7.1 right now. id rather it be a little lower, but hopefully when i go into flower, the soil acidity starts to drop.
the little plant has a pH of 6.5. this is the more favorable pH, but this one looks less healthy than the last

thanks i appreciate it!
its been smooth sailing up to this point. im starting to get the first sign of problems, but hopefully i have fixed them.
