Blue Dream 150w hps

Xrangex · Nov 30, 2012

Some bagseed bluedream, the bud is the most crystally bud i've bought in awhile and was able to find 4 seeds in my half ounce!

So i got 2 going under a 150w mini sunburst hps

Got a 65w 2700k cfl (300w eqiv) and a 26w 6500k bulb for extra light below the hps ballast
Stays surprisingly cool in there

2 germinating seeds, both germinated with taproots a 1/2 inch +
Planted in a home mixed soil

The Third Green pot is in the back so i know how heavy those pots are completely dry

Their in the soil and more updates when they pop out

Are you running 12/12 from seed or vegging with the hps?

18/6 vegt <-> 12/12 flower
Vegging with the hps and afew cfl's

this will be first grow with the hps

UPDATE --- Both of the seeds had germinated, one popped very well and the other's kind of mutant looking, so i'll put a picture of it up if it starts looking better. So far i'm counting on this one to make it through to the end.

We'll refer to this as day 1, more updates coming soon

GL man I just got some vortex and blue dream in and will be germing soon. Waiting on 2 of my fems to finish flowering. Looking forward to following this one even though I grow veg with a 600W MH and flower with 600W HPS.

Thanks dude, and that's what's up never heard of vortex!
I was thinking about getting a 400w cooltube mh/hps but ended up getting this for like 60-80 bucks. Figured I'll only have 1-3 plants in the closet at a time.
150w should work fine concidering i have tons of cfls for side-lighting

Small update - Day 2

Decided to make another small update since the other (mutant looking) one popped its seed and is opening up pretty normal looking now

Here's the one i updated yesterday, not much new but still looking sexy bongsmilie

And if you look really close you can see the 2nd plant opening up alittle bit! Sorry it's so damn hard to get a pic under that hps, ill get some sunglasses or something

Anyway, as always, thanks for reading!
& i have one more seed germinating at the moment, i'm gonna plant it in with these two as soon as the taproot shows :mrgreen:

Update - Day 3

My little nigga's are doing swell, the one germinating still hasnt popped. The mutant looking one is normal now so i'll call the first (bigger one) plant 1 and the small one plant 2, and the germinated one will be plant 3 when it pops out of the soil!

Here's plant 1, growing strong. The weird leaf was freaking me out but i dont think i have anything to wory about.

And here's plant 2, finally looking like a normal seedling!

very happy it popped up nicely. (It's small because I covred part of the stem with more dirt since it wa stretching a bit)

anyway, after week 1 i'll probably do a weekly or bi-weekly update thing instead of every day just making sure people know that this journal wont be abandoned. so if you want to see what a nooby can do with a 150w hps then stay tuned :bigjoint:

There's a product called Tiereas mist or something, look it up.. You spray it on your plant and it will cause the plant to produce pollen sacks.. Through self pollination you'd get fem seeds. There's a lot behind it that I didn't explain since Ive never done it myself but its a proven method.

The lil niggas looking good aha

I'm tagging along for the ride. Also doing to 150 HPS but from 12/12 but with out CFLs. Working great.

Update BOIYZ - Day 4
Both doing well, the germinating seed has opened up and i just planted it (hopefully her)
in the soil about 10 minutes ago! :bigjoint:

Here's plant 1, getting her 2nd set of leaves out best she can!

And plant 2, looking much much better!

It's odd, they came from the same half ounce and are already growing entirely different.

Anywawy, thanks for reading!
Stay up :hump:

You should look into germinating with rockwool cubes. Only takes 2-3 days and the taproot will bust thru!

I have grodan cubes, jiffy pellets, and a humidity dome but they're all for cloning. I've gotten 100% success with popping straight in the container i'll be using, thanks for the advice though :leaf:

UPDATE TIME - DAY 5

Just watered the babies, they're looking great!

Plant 1, looking beautiful as always

Plant 2, getting bigger

Top view of my 3 plant grow :3

The entire setup. I know i need better ventalation but this is fine for now
Anyway, thanks for reading! I'll keep you all posted :leaf:

Dont worry about ventilation now. You have that fan going, creating air circulation. Since you have an open room, your fan is bringing in "new" air.

Yeah, i'm not gonna worry about it until i need it. I also had to quit smoking in my room to help air quality, i smoke way too many cigarettes bongsmilie
