greetings everyone..technically our 3rd grow but we didnt really know what we were doing our first 2.our previous results encouraged us to do more research on every aspect of the plant.currently have several strains in flower/veg.strawberry cough(clone from dispensary),black domina(seeds from dispensary),bagseed that started it all..we call it "mr. e",pure kushXsour d and mothership(clone only i hear?). we're goin' dirtbag..foxfarm organic soil.
pic 1-strawberry cough,4 1/2 weeks into flower,started as clone.we've cloned this plant in soil at least seven times(before flowering) and had a 100% success rate.super strong roots within 10 days of clipping.grows big and bushy..topping strongly encouraged.colas get full quick.
pic 2-black domina,grows long and lanky.started from seed..smells strong in veg.1 1/2 weeks into flower
pic 3-pure kushXsour diesel,got this from a dispensary in sfv.week and a half into flower.took 3 clones.seems to stick straight up and leaves kinda stay together.
pic 4-mr e.(mystery)this was the seed that started it all.4 1/2 weeks in flower.smells like chemicals and lemon?verrry sticky to the touch.buds grow somewhat far apart.this strain takes about 3 weeks for clones to root with soil.
pic 5-strawberry cough,close up shot.many dark hairs for only 4 1/2 weeks in flower?
pic 6-another mr e. shot.in veg the stems turn dark purple.finishes in just about 8 weeks
the setup-
clones: 2ft t5 4 bulb fixture (we only use 2 blue bulbs)for about 10-14 days.foxfarm with added perilite.humidity is a MUST.24 hour light mando!spray with a nute solution at least once a day
veg:4ft t5 4 bulb fixture on 18/6.2 red/2 blue bulbs.fed nutes every two days.monster grow (12-7-15) works amazing.we veg most plants about 3-5 weeks depending on strain.we put into flower at about 12" to 16".
flower:600w air cooled hps.roughly 16" above tops.temps average 84-90 degrees,somewhat high.using foxfarm nutes..sesame,bloom and ching.water daily..giving nutes every 3 days.
thanks for reading,hope for feedback..

Only one comment, that black plastic will absorb tons of light. If you grow again matte white sheeting or mylar would greatly increase the amount of light getting to the plants (not that they look like they've missed it LOL). However, white and mylar will not absorb so much heat as the black stuff, so if temperature is an issue for you then probably find a solution for that one before next time. Not being critical btw, just a suggestion for your next grow - you've done a splendid job. All the very best for the remainder of your grow - you're going to reap a nice harvest.
