RIP mytery kush :(
Sort of a blessing as she was germ'd and flowered at the same time as my KKS so the flower box was crowded. To solve that problem in the future, I just ordered a new tent to move the 600hps and 400mh into. I will need to get another fan to vent/circulate the tent, and a few other goodies like another lumenaire hood for the 400mh lamp.

There isn't enough room in my current flower box for another air-cooled hood and temps hit 80 when I close it up. Hopefully this solves a few issues for me. I should be able to flower more than 6 plants when necessary and still be be less crowded than I am now. I will have a lot more veg room as well. :hump:

I also gave her the first dose of nutes that day, which was significantly earlier in veg than I have been giving nutes in the past. It could have been 1 or the other, or a combination of both, but I think the neem was the main cause. I don't think I will be using neem that early again, as I was using it as more of a preventative than a treatment.

My AKS appeared to be deficient when I gave her nutes around day 20 of veg, so I decided to try giving a weaker mix but earlier into veg. I guess I will go back to only bioroot/snowstorm and plain RO water for the first 3 weeks and lay off the neem until they go into the flower box.

In other news: my 2nd Magus Motavation seed germ'd about 14 hours after being put into tap water, instead of RO water. Lesson learned: Germ seeds in 24 hour old tap water, and switch to RO water when they go into pro mix.

Yeah I believe it's the minerals in tap water that aid in germination . Some use very light bloom nutes to aid in germination also . I just use tap and a rooting agent , works good in rooters or straight soil .

I made a pound of canna-butter a few days ago with 37g of trim/popcorn. A day later I took it off the top of the water and changed containers. Today I opened the fridge to check on it, and it was gone. My roomie mistakenly thought it was old leftovers/trash. :wall:

Time to go downstairs and trim the other/younger chronics that have been hanging for over 2 weeks and make another batch.

neem oil will not effect a plant like that unless..
A. you used way to much.
B. you sprayed them while under the lights.
C. you did not use organic dish soap as a spreader.

i use neem on all my plants leaves and in the soil and never had a prob.

all you other plants are looking great to besides the hermie

A and C are both possible, but I sprayed them under CFL and did a final dry outside the HID footprint under an oscillating fan.

Making another pound of budda with 59g of premature chronic buds that have been hanging for 2+ weeks. :weed:

SHIT!!!!! LOL that sucks bro. I am about to make some more butter for a cancer lady that I know, I do all the work and just give it to her. It is my good deed for the week! Sorry to hear about your roomate brotha! But it happens.

Oh and I switched for one watering to Tap and the ladies didn't like it at all! The leaves showed how much they didn't like it so I am back on Distilled water. My beans take about 12-14 hrs to show tap root with distilled water.

Your grow rooms look so clean all the time bro and plants look great! I would rep ya if I could!

My Il Diavolo Auto is 24" tall and hasn't slowed down stretching. I raised my veg 400mh as high as I can, and she only has 12 more inches until she hits the glass.

She thought it was some old grease or something. :dunce:

Nice, my brother wanted the butter, but I really wish I had just made some more QWISO now. I haven't made anything with the 2nd batch of butter, so maybe that will change my mind, but 6g of hash probably lasts a bit longer than a pound of butter. :twisted:

Yep, my wonder woman is still fighting the mag deficiency caused by the tap water, but apparently I have to use the tap water to germ with. Live and learn, 2 seeds gone. :(

Waiting eagerly for the shipment notice on my 4x4 tent, but it is going to be a bear to assemble. I am only going to have about 2 inches of height to spare when assembling it in the utility room.

Do you think this tent can support 2 air-cooled hoods for my 600 and 400 lamps? Or will I need to use a single hood, and buy a 1kw ballast and lamp to replace my 2 fixtures?

I was just worried about the weight of 2 tempered glass hoods, but I recall seeing other 4x4 and 5x5 tent grows with 2 lights, so I suppose it should be fine. I will head to the store tomorrow and get a new hood, fan, and some ductwork/clamps. I will probably upgrade the 400w eventually so that I am running 2 x 600w instead, but I am not sure if I should go with MH or HPS ballast if/when I do. I have a brand new horti 600 super hps on my shelf as a spare already, so all I would really need is a ballast. :twisted:
