My First Grow: Northern Lights

She's growing like crazy now! Here's a shot of a pre-flowers/bud developing(?). Picture is taken only 4 days into 12/12.
I'm excited! I'm expecting a 10-11 week of flowering, but hoping for 8-9 weeks.

Looking good man, how high up is the screen from your pots? Looks like a good height to me.
Around 4 inches, and yeah I also thinks it's a good height but as I mentioned previously in the thread - I didn't pack the soil good enough so there's a 3-5 inches gap from the top of the soil to the top of the pot, making it 7-9 inches from the soil/stem to the net which sucks!
 
Yea, i did the same thing this time around. Next time I'm cutting my pot to almost half the size, but honestly, the soil level is only gonna drop maybe 1/2".
 
There's some droopy leafs and yellowing/dying leafs underneat the net/screen, bverything above the net/screen looks top notch, green and healthy!
I think this is all because of the CFL bulbs is to weak and can't get down there.

I really wish the soil level wouldn't had dropped. If it wouldn't, there wouldn't be this much grow underneat the net/screen.
Can't wait till I start my second grow! There's is so much I'm going to do different that I'm sure will benefit the plant!
 
ya, my plant always had a few lower leaves die off, they just dont get any light. no need to worry, you can pull them but only do it if it requires little to no effort, they pretty much fall of on their own.
 
dude long time no see. I came here to see this grow. nice update man. plant looks healthy az fuk too. cya later man

Hi yo! Thanks alot for the kind words! I gotta say that I'm kinda proud of myself, he he.
I vegged the for 75 days exactly.
 
Nutrients for the upcoming week, Week #3.
1 ml/liter of BioBizz Bio Grow (NPK 8.0 - 2.0 - 6.0)
3 ml/liter of BioBizz Bio Blom (NPK 2.0 - 6.0 - 3.5)
1 ml/liter of BioBizz Fish Mix (NPK 6.0 - 2.0 - 4.0)

Gives a total NPK value of 20 - 22 - 20,5 if my math is correct.

I am following OldTimer1's BioBizz feeding schedule (can be found HERE) but I'm adding 1 ml/liter of nutes to his values because I've read that BioBizz products aren't that strong, and I've also read that when you use AirPots you can use a little extra nutes. She seems to like it, so I just go with it!

Once a day, just before the lights goes out I give her a spray with both BioBizz Alg-A-Mic and BioBizz Fish Mix, in very light mixes.
I'm also giving her a spray with plain water about once a day too, but not at any specific time.

FOLIAR SPRAY
0.5 ml/liter of BioBizz Alg-A-Mic
0.5 ml/liter of BioBizz Fish Mix

ODOUR
No odour what so ever! You can barely smell her even when you sniff her real close.

Thanks for watching! Here's pictures!

holy crap that's an intense schedule haha. I just alternated feeding and watering, same amount each time.
Haha, yeah. But it looks a lot "heavier" than it is, I think. And about once a week a feed with plain water just to let her rest (or something). I'm watering every 36/48 hours now. These AirPots sure dry out quickly!
 
oh wow. i guess i should mention i only have to water every 4-5 days haha. so if i stick to an alternating schedule my plants get fed about twice every 2 weeks

Haha, I don't know if I mentioned it in the thread before but I water like every 36/48th hour with at least 1.5 - 2 liters of water. These AirPots sure dry outs quickly! If I haven't watered for more than two days the plant starts to get droopy (yeah, it's really that fast).
