First time hempy bucket

Hi every one. I'm a novice grower. I've done a few outdoors grows and a couple indoors with cfl. I've stepped up to some powerful lights and am trying out some hempy buckets.

Here's my setup:

Lights: 1x 1000w mh for veg and 1000w hps for flower.

Grow medium: 100% perlite

Nutes: General hydroponics flora series. I got a starter box with all the additives. When that is gone i will just use lucas ratio with big jugs of nutes.

Strains:
4x cheese bag seed.
1x greenhouse seeds super lemon haze (fem)
1x Humboldt seeds bubbas gift (fem)
2x nirvanna seeds master kush (fem)


I currently have 3- 2 week old cheese plants and 1- 1 week old cheese. I just put the other seeds in the cups this morning. I hope to veg the fem plants for about 4 weeks in 3 gallon buckets and then switch to flower. I have the cheese in 1.5 gallon buckets and will leave them in there the duration.

The cheese plants. They have all been in perlite for one week now.

I do auto feed hempy buckets. Doesn't get much easier. good luck! any particular questions you have?

Not yet. Things are going good with them. I will keep posting updates on here. I'm sure i will have some questions though.

i've used the original lucas formula since i started. this go round i'm trying lucas with the flora duo A &B. they seem to like it so far.

Nice man. I am curious how your cheese bag seed come out. I am working a trade with a buddy in the uk to get some of there clone onlys and exo cheese is one of them.

Nice. I've heard good things about exodus cheese.

I started a journal. I thought this was where to put it, but found the journal page. Im going to start one for the master kush, the super lemon haze, and the bubbas gift too. Gotta love those freebies from herbies.

Here they are 21 days old. These will probably veg another 2 weeks or so before i flip them. I started super cropping the two bigger ones.

They are about 24- 26 days old now. I am starting to lst them in addition to pinching and folding.

After one day of being tied down they are really getting bushy. An anole lizard showed up today. It can hang around and start warm.

Here's about 28 days old.

About 33 days now. One of the plants has a couple white pistols growing on one of the nodes. I have all the plants on a 18/6 light cycle. I am not planning on switching to flower until the first week of December.

Thirty eight days in now. Two of the plants have a couple sets of white pistils showing on the top nodes. One hasn't shown anything yet. I am going to flip these this weekend. How much yield could i expect from one of these? It's in a 1.5 gallon with a 1k light.

Day 2 of flower and the lizard made another appearance. Just chilling.

Day 2 of flower and the lizard made another appearance.

What a growth spurt. Pics of day 1 in flower mode and day 7.

Looking good homie. The lizard is over the top.

Wish I had a lizard.

Growing skill level. Got lizard.

@420roofer so you have all of those in 12/12 or is that just for the pic? I want to run some 12/12 from seed mainlined colas in solo cups here for my next grow.. I have major height restrictions in my grow box and I'm not a huge fan of my current scrog setup, but I do like to experiment.

Man the lizard just makes it all that more exciting - is this a semi-outdoor environment - or is he trapped in there? I don't have one in my grow room but one hangs out by my garbage cans which I now leave cracked open so he can just go nuts getting flies - I've caught him catching a few flies now, and it's really cool to see - like my own surreal discovery program.. I always see them when I smoke and try to blow a puff or two in their direction.. my lil pals.. I wonder if I should turn my grow box into a terrarium now... they eat bugs, right? is their shit as nutritious as bat guana?

Lol. The lizard likes to hang out in the super lemon haze plant. They are all in 12/12 under one 1k light. I was just given an extra ballast and light so if i need to i can run 2k. They are all in my shop. Lady bugs started showing up a few weeks ago but there is no aphids for them to eat. I think "Larry the lounge lizard" is eating them. I don't know if lizard poop helps our hurts anything. Probably when the buds start forming i Will take him in and put him in a terarium. It might get stuck to a bud.

As far as what I'm running, i have 5 cheese plants, a few clones that haven't rooted yet, a slh, bubbas gift, master kush, 5 gallons have magnum autoflowers that took 10 weeks to grow larger than a seedling, and in the 2 litres are some afghani that I'm going to run 12/12 from seed. My plan is to seed a run of ice plants next grow and then use the seeds in a mass 2 litre sog hempy setup. Probably like 64 under 1 light. Or 128 under 2 lights lol.

LOL nice idea, go big or go home - if you reasonably can of course!!
