This time around I am growing 10 euforia from Duch Passion and 4 Bigbud from Nirvana, Which was left over from my last grow, All 10 Euforia and 3 of the Bigbud have germinated and are now in pots.

Its almost the same set up as last time, Will be using a 400w HPS for veg and flower, A 4" inline fan and filter, And this time decided to rip the old mylar off the walls and get some new diamond pressed mylar from Metagro. This stuff is great better then the old type I had, The only problem is they folded it up for shipping so have had to send it bk and find somewhere else to buy from, So the walls are bear at the moment.

Once again the soil is ALLMIX from Bio Bizz and I shall be using there grow and bloom as well.

Not a lot to see but just one pic to start things off...If you closely look you will see one has already popped up ( mid 3rd up )

Hey Ngt I will be leaving these to finish flowering, No sampling going on this time.!!!

Its day 21 now

I am down to 8 plants out of 14, One didnt germinate and I knocked 5 off of a table just a day or two after they had shown. Thought they would be ok but all died a few days later :cry:

Been watering my plants with 200mils of water almost daly at 9pm, and every 3rd watering have been adding nutes at a rate of 2mil per 2 litres and twice a week they get 100mil and foliar feed with epson salts

I am transplanting tomorrow from 6in to 10in pots and will up the amount of water to 400mil + if needed and in a week up the nutes to 3mil per 2 litres

I have ordered a few products to try my hand at cloning I am planing on takeing 4 of the best looking clones from each plant and with that giving me a possible 32 plants if all 8 plants turn out female and none of the clones dont die, as soon as the clones have been taken I will give them one more week to recover then switch to 12/12

98 root riot cubes
1liter of clonex Matrix Clear for filling the holes in the cubes
60mils of superthrive
50mils of clonex
propagator

transplanted to day from what I thought was 6in pots but where in fact 5in to 8in pots, these should now be big enough now for me to get the cloning out the way, give a week to recover, then switch to 12/12 and weed out the males and plant the females on to the final size pot




I have run out room now and cant have my 16in fan on the shelf so to get around this I have bought 2 6in clip on fans and they seem to be ok



Also by next week I will have the mylar back on the walls.!!!

Thanks maryjane they are looking ok so far though I have lost the bigbud in there some where but they all look a like so its hard to tell which is which

SO ITS day 7 of flowering now, the total out of 8 plants was 5 females and 3 males... which are now dead. I have planted 4 of the best looking 5 into 12in pots and have left one in a 8in pot due to lack of space.

Also I finally got some mylar which wasnt creased and have got that hung up.. the light in there now seems soo much brighter then with the standard mylar I guess it all helps.!!! I also have the door lined as well..




The 4 steps to flowering...





I have also topped 3 out of the 5 plants to see the difference in yeld.. the one in the small pot was dieing for a drink which she got right after this photo.!! I just hope it last the next 7-10 weeks in such a small pot ?




And heres a shot of them all in the closet

your plants look great, i love those fans you got there, i always have to duct-tape mine to the walls:lol: where did you find such odd mylar? i'm a bit worried about heat spots with that one since even crinkled mylar will give you those...

Alright green nobody

I got my mylar from GroWell > Diamond Reflective Sheeting I wouldnt say its crinkled more of just a slight wave but no matter what I did there was always a wave on that wall even though the others as flat in the end I went through a 100 tack pins just trying to hang it up.

Your right them fans are good frees up space on the shelf.. mine do need moveing up but just havent got round to it yet.

I have been looking about to see if they do an Oscillating 6in clip on fan I have found one but its for use with cars 12V so no good to me..but the ones I have seem to move the air around enough

Looking good Bb

The plants look good, got a bit of Mg def on one of them by the looks of it (good old Allmix and uk tap water eh?) but they look too stretched to me. That's vegging with those HPS's.

Keep us updated dude.

I was referring to his plants pre-flowering.

I don't like HPS's for vegging, they cause too much stretch.

Veg with blue light not red.

Just my opinion.

Im on day 25 of flowering now, and my plants seemed to have finished there Stretching, topping out at about 2-1/2ft... being the tallest.
I have been feeding a combination of grow and bloom every week since the start of flowering,
by takeing 1mil of grow off and adding a 1mil of bloom 3-1, 2-2, 1-3 over the last 3weeks, from here on in it will stay 3mil bloom.
also cant forget the molasses thats introduced at a rate of 1 heaped teaspoon per plant every water.!!!








Shes starting to fill out nicely, I cant wait to see the growth over the next few weeks, all 3 pictures where of the same plant after I finished takeing theses my camera died on me, so once its charged back up I will get some more pictures of my other 4 ladies

Almost spot on 25 days now ngt


they are a little bit, but I left the light at 18inches the whole time I was vegin even though I could have dropped it to 12inch easy.
Reason for this is last grow I had it 12inch right from the off and I wanted to see if keeping the light that little bit higher made a difference

Looking good Bb, love those slender Sativa fan leaf 'fingers'.

Not everyone is as anal about stretching as I am, as far as I'm concerned, stretching is the second beiggest yield reducer after over-feeding.

Just my opinion.
