My Perpetual Grow(Indoor/Soil)

hello all, i hail from 420magazine.com in search of more feed back and new ideas. back in september i order 5 PPP feminized seeds from NIrvana seed shop and i cut clones from them as well. The 2 mother plants that i cut clones from were put into flower about 44 days ago and the flowers are getting FAT! i cut 4 clones from the plant before i flowered them and rooted them in an aeroponic cloner. Well everything is going great as of now, we will probly chop them down around day 70 depending on what the thrichomes look like under a microscope. well with out any further a due here is some info and pics~!

What strain is it?
PPP (Pure Power Plant) - a strong F1 hybrid, was developed in the late 90s from a South African Sativa and a fat Indica from the USA. Pure Power Plant's tremendous growth potential is a prime example of hybrid vigour. This variety is the latest trend among Dutch commercial growers because of its high yields of valuable buds. Pure Power Plant has a pleasant pine-like aftertaste and a powerful social buzz.

Please be free to post any comments, questions, or ideas thanks guys!

Merry Christmas everyone!!! my present to you is a PICTURE UPDATE!!! YAY!! arent you excited? i know i am lol

she is starting to get fat, caylax's are swellin up nice a few dark redish brown hairs here and there but for the most part they still white, starting to get real frosty too, im going to have to tie off the top cola because its starting to get top heavy and bending a bit, i couldnt be happier with the way things look right now heres so pics


temps are between 75*F night and 85*F during the day.
RH 20% i know thats low but the plants dont seem to mind at all, the buds are very dense very firm, doesnt seem like it minds the dry environment, nor does it mind high temps, when the light first went in the temps were gettin up around 90*F during the day and didnt show signs of wilting or anything. They are drinking alot now! probably a quart of water a day maybe more. We havnet fed them anything since last week so we gave them alittle more nutrients in todays water and will probly feed them one more time before flushing. We are currently at day 46 of flower. thanks for checkin in guys.

Ditto to all that, good luck and happy growing.

wow thats fucked up because before i even made a journal i asked if it was ok to upload these photos, that website offeres free uploading and i delete the pictures from my computer once i upload them so its the only way i can get the image, but what ever

Mod can close this thread thanks!

Looking great. I agree that you should top them or start scrogging. I think the thread is new and went up right before Christmas, give it time. +Rep and sub'd.

hey thanks for the feed back, happy holidays to everyone, i cant get rid of the 420magazine tags because its where i upload my pictures, they offer free unlimited picture uploading and they make it super easy to get the img tags so its easier for me if i just do it from there, i am sorry if this offends any one but i asked in the new member thread if it was ok to upload pics even if they had a 420magazine tag and some one respond "with of course, its fine."

that being said i had a kick ass new years eve. My thermostat for my outtake fan came in yesterday so i am going to try to put that in some time this week, also added a few more lights in the veg tent so now we have (2) 64 watt 4' florescent fixtures and (2) 25w CFL (on clamp reflectors). so thats about 178watts not sure how many lumen that is but they are defiantly growing, not that fast but its ok because i would almost rather have the plants grow at a slower rate i do not live near my plants so i only get to see them about once a week or when something needs to be installed or taken care of. so the slower rate of growth is almost better in my situation. we are hoping to have a dedicated circuit installed at some point so we can run more equipment. The circuit is pretty much maxed out as of now (HPS,6''inline fan, heater, lights) plus what ever gets used during everyday activity. ill have updates soon keep in touch! peace

PICTURE UPDATE!

ok so we installed the new thermostat. we hung it with jack chain right near the canopy of the plants so it gets a good reading of the temperature. we have it set for 80*F so if it goes over 80* it will kick on the 6'' inline fan and the 2 6'' booster fans. seems to be working good pretty excited about it. on the other hand the plants look pretty good,
plant #2 looks 100% healthy very lush green and it has pretty much caught up in height compared to plant #1 and i almost feel like the buds are more dense on it as well. It should be noted that we have a cfl pointed directly at plant #2 and the other plant does not, also the HPS is facing plant #2 so maybe it is gettin more light than the other one. the only thing i can think to fix this is to put another HPS in. We obviously wont do that till the next batch

other than that here are some pics taken with a better camera than usual!

Hey CE, going good there.
I believe Matt and DB were just lookin out for you, so dont take it too personal.
If I can offer advice it would be to top those girls next time.
That 400w isnt powerful enough for such a tree.
I'd say top at the 3rd or 4th node in veg and get a bigger yield at the end of bloom.
Find a thread I started about lights being too far.
I speak mainly about the Inverse Square Law.
A long story short, and I too run a 400w, the 400w is useless beyond 27 inches from the bulb.
Best grow vibes to you !

Yes what Flo says is true, policy here isn't the clearest thing about the site and sometimes hard to determine if you're within it or not. I was probably ripped that night anyway, I usually have my own point of view in my own words. nothing personal or hurtful meant by dittoing matt. on another note I used to play a yamaha bass a lot like that but 5 string. Ever ninjam man?

cool every one is friends here

check out this bong i got

awesome bong!

thanks paid $150 for it at a local shop, i know thats a bit much but im happy with it. its stemless too so it has no female slide, i have never owned a bong like this. has a 4 arm tree perc with slit diffusers and a ice pinch. The slide is glass on glass obviously, glass isnt super thick but its sturdy, gets me ripped, ive almost smoked an eight out of it since i got it yesterday

so plant #1 is looking a litte pale. Its light green. Plant #2 is still lush green looks great. but plant #1 (left side) the leaves on it are just light green. The bud still looks ok its gotta be some sort of deficiency. We haven't been feeding either plants that much since we flowered them. but we have been giving them the same amount of nutes as each other so why does one look different? plant #1 has also always been taller than plant #2, is it possible that plant #1 could finish before plant#2? the plants are just about 8 weeks old, i continue on flowering for a nother 3 weeks. Is it possible that since i didn't feed my plants enough during flower they are not going to produce potent thricomes? just some thoughts i had thanks guys!

up!!!!!!!!!

ok so the plants are still looking good! plant #1 that was turning light green is starting to get its color back, seems like their is more Trichromes on both the plants so they are defiantly still developing. i gave both the plants a low strength dose of shultz 10-15-10 liquid plant food. Temps have gotten as high as 91*f and as low as 65*F at night. THe plants dont seem to mind the high heat, plus the fan is doing a tremendous job of keeping the grow room dry. We snapped a bunch of pictures, some of them are the ones i took last week but you should be able to tell the difference. Gettin close to harvest, next wensday will be the start of week 9, so we are gettin close but still have to wait. Thanks for checkin in!



VEG TENT
Got some pictures finally. the plants look great, they are starting to really fill in, the 2 i topped have concentrated their energy to other "tops" so looks like it is working, i just topped another one of them today, well see what happens, heres some pics! (i also fed them with a low strength dose of shultz 10-15-10 liquid plant food)

wow cool plants man!
