First Grow, T5, Northern Lights

jetset those t5s 2 for 69 dollars good choice perfect for mothers am=nd clones

Yea, they're compact T5's, they use different bulbs than my current T5.. Kinda like 2 4ft t5's made into 2ft, so 2 bulbs = 10k lumens instead of only 4,000 lumens for the regular 2x2ft t5.

yeah i know all about them those the t5s i was telling you about in the begining of the thread remember?

ah guess i didn't remember.. They do look like cool bulbs though

yeah they are cool bulbs im gonna use thise for the clones

I wish my plants looked bushy like some of the ones on here.. I guess they're fimming or something to make them like that.. Mine are starting to look similar though with all the branching out.

no signs yet? i waiting to see how quick yours show in sex...

I see these really small things developing on one of my plants, but really nothing to be sure of yet. It's been a little chilly lately.. hitting 80F in the growroom. Lowest my thermometer said was 76F i think. Of course, I have no idea if it's accurate.. Since I raised my lights higher and higher it's been showing lower temps, but I can't really find a place for it so it's at canopy level.

I think that in a week, week and a half I should see sure signs of sex. Maybe 2weeks for the second plant, it's not as far along.

well goodluck with that.3 of mine been in 2 days of darkness so now im putting them in 12/12 to see if i got a lady out of those three.

Yea I didn't do that 48hr darkness thing because I have young ones in there, it wouldn't be a good idea. One of my young ones is on the 5th set of leaves, and the other one is on the 4th set.

i just tryed it with 3 as it was just an expirement

yeah i got the same set up ull be fine mine are about a foot high wit a t5 i keep the light about a foot high from the top good luck hope it goes good.

i keep my T5's maybe an inch from my babies in veg, just cause of the dome they're like 6" from my clones

I keep them as close as I can without burning really.. That seems to be about 2in.. They seem to like it like that. I did keep them at 1inch but I had troubles with them growing into it before I got around to raising the lights.

post somemore pics of the ladies jet..

I'll do that tomorrow or monday.. It's lights out right now

checking today I found that on one of my plants it looks like the smaller one is male ball type things are showing up on it. The bigger one has yet to show anything.

Is it normal for the lower leaves to die off? I'm noticing that the lower leaves are turning yellow, the ones with 3 points and 1 point the others are still green. I'm going to add a little flowering nutes today and see if it's nute problems, I'm not sure.

yeah thats normal. just pluck those little yellow leaves off. no sense in wasting energy trying to revive them. you got pics of the plants? sucks if you got a male...

yea, I really don't know if it's a male or not, but it looks like it is.. I'm not good with sexing though since this is my first grow and all I've seen is pictures.. I found a brown bug in my grow room and killed it I dunno what it was, something I haven't really seen before. Kinda looked like a brown grasshopper. I don't know how it got inside though.

I'll get pics up soon though, I didn't get to that yet.

thats pretty strange. yeah dont let those fuckers get to your plants. well lets see them picsssssss
