My new tent (with pics)

As I promised a couple ppl I took a couple of pics with my phone and here are the results.

I recently bought a 4x8 tent with 1k light. I got the 4x8 so i have room to expand when i get the funds to buy a second light without having to buy a second tent. Over the last couple weeks i popped the last of teh seed stock i had and have been busy vegging them out and getting em healthy. The strains i have currently in my tent are:

3x BLZ (fem)
3x Aurora Indica
2x Bubblicious
6x g-13/Haze

Im thinking im gonna lose (hopefully) no more then half of them to being boyz

Turned the lights over to 12/12 last night so Ill get a couple more pics up in the next week or so to show the progress.

Nice, I'm too scared to grow that many, I don't have a good enough air filtering system, well, I have no air filtering system lol

Yea the only thing that bothers me about the tent is the heat. I have done a couple diff things with it to cool it down but I think the room that its in just gets too hot to circulate the air properly. I dont really know what to do about that except keep the door open to the house which seems to keep the room a decent temp.

ok a week into flowering and I have had 4 casualties already. 3 g13/haze and one of the Aurora Indica have been pulled over the last couple days and it looks like another of the g13's are gonna go in the next day or two.

On a lighter note I have gotten the heat issue under control by rigging the outflow of hot air into the ehating duct of the room, it isnt pretty but it works.
temps stay uner 80 now with light on idk how low is goes when the light is off unfortunately

Ok here is some pics from today, i had to wait for lights to come on.
first is the whole room now:

Im trying a couple diff techniques from a regualr top like this bubblicious

to a little super cropping to make multiple tops like these Blz fem's

And this Aurora indi is looking pretty good too


I have the g13's LST'd but for some reason i cant get the pics to save to my computer properly so I may or may not be able to get them up at some point...hope ya enjoy these for now and Ill put up more pics in the coming weeks.

looking good! happy to see the current survivors are mostly the ones in airpots

Well to be truthfull i have been transplanting the ones that werent into the airpots as I had to take the males out. (although I think it was only one that i did this too) Im thinking of bumping the last couple up in the next few days/week at the most once I am comfortable they are definately female.

I like it! I am interested in soil or at least a lil more soil like of a growing medium.

I have recently converted to soil, i do not think that i will be returning to hydro anytime soon....... It is a lot more forgiving in soil not to mention the tastes.

Couldn't agree more!

Ok so Im a little delayed from posting week 2 due to the holiday but here is a few pics of the room. Things are starting to really show sex with the exception of the Aurora Indica for some reason.


The Blz is looking nice but the one i just topped and didnt lst at all is stretching more than I would like. The lst is looking happy to me:


G-13 is probably the farthest ahead in the flowering which is nice. I did LST on several and they are loving it. even the one i just topped looks like its gonna be nice by the end:


Like I said before the Aurora Indica isnt showing sex nearly as much as the other plants but they are strong and healthy none the less:



Finally bubbliscious:



I have already taken cuttings off these plants and have then all labled and vegging so i can put them into the tent as soon as these finish (unless someone wants to buy me a light.) j/k



So hope you all enjoy the pics and Ill be posting again in a week or so.

Ok I know i skipped a week but Im back with my week 4 update:
here is a pic of the entire room as it looks now you can see its strating to fill up some:


Next we start with the Aurora indicas which for some reason just seem like they are a week or so behind but they are both looking really nice with the node spacing and hight, I think they are going to be really nice by the time they finish.


onto the BLZ which were the fem seeds (all of which wound up being fem)



the g-13/haze mix are really farther ahead of the rest in terms of resin and node production Im really proud of these little girls and how they r producing already



The only plant i worry about is the bubblelicious. It seems to be doing fine except for the droopy leaves that seem to be curling at the top of the plant:



any comments on that plant are welcome. She is doing fine no discoleration of the plant or anything just the curling. I had first thought it was a watering issue but it has remained through both dry dirt and wet so IDK whats going on with it.

Thanks for stopping in again hope ya like the pics. (I asked my family for a diigital camera for xmas so hopefully the pics will get better by the end of the cycle)

Noone has any Ideas about the leaves curling in the last pic?

Strange none of the others are affected, what's your PH at? Heard things about how PH can give the "eagle claw" problem.

Not really a soil guy though

watering with foxfarm nutes at 6.2-6.5 as per their instructions (usually on the lower side)

Is it soil? Coco? I just found out that 6.0 is ok for coco, cuz I always tried to end up at like (exactly) 6.3 in flower., but ec's opinion would help here, he's the man. And I think he's the one who told me that some strains claw up like that but don't hold me to that...

foxfarm soil and foxfarm nutes. This week has been tiger bloom, big bloom, and some of the grow big. However the clawing has been going on for a couple weeks when i was just using tiger and big blooms. Next watering im gonna go just plain water and flush em out some i think. They have been getting nutes twice a week and I think they need a little break.

sorry all, was offline for a few days. to me, it looks like that one plant got overferted (maybe too fast of a bump?). the flush should help (my advice: don't use plain water, make sure it is @ 5% nute solution. more salts will flush out easier then using just plain water).

chef - no strain does it by choice (that I know of), it's usually a condition I see with new plants getting dialed in and some highly sensitive strains.

oh yeah, awesome looking girls

So i have never tried to flush the air style pots b4..they dont have any drainage holes...do ya just water em till the drip out the bottom?

thnx for the compliments eye.
