Second Scrog - Female Seeds - White Widow x Big Bud

So here goes my second scrog.

Growing white widow x big bud from female seeds.

Started seeds in soil before transplanting to a small plastic planter bag.

They are 2 weeks old and has been grown under a 125w veg cfl. Today they get the 400w MH.

They are both looking good. Don't worry about the burned leafs lol. I let them get a bit close to the cfl.

They are in an organic mix is soil 60%, perlite 30% and pumice 10%.

I'll be using organic nutes only, but at the moment I'm just feeding ph water as the soil is already loaded with nutes. Run off is 0.6 ec or about 400ppm.

I have been spraying with nitrozyme since it had two leafs and gave them some root boost yesterday with plain ph water.

I'm going to transfer them next week into 35l pots.

Flowering will be under a 600w hps.

My tent is 1mx1mx2m and I've got a coolhood, fans etc. hopefully will update fan/bigger tent after this grow.

Subbed. Rock n Roll!

Good stuff bro looking forward to the next show

hey dirty, do you think i should use the 35l pots again? they are going to be vegged for 8 weeks, i didnt plan on it, but insulation is going in, so its easier to hide a vegging plant smell then a flowering one. could i get away with using smaller pots?

Hey bro smaller pot will be fine but remember bigger the roots bigger the fruits and with a long veg like that would be better in bigger pot's but smaller will do just check the pot after a couple of weeks and see how the roots are going its not going to hurt to much but remember if the plants growth rate slows down might be getting root bound

that's a easy fix just upgrade the pot size if that happens but the so called rule is 4 liters for every month of growth so if your going to veg for 2 months and flower for 2 then you will need a minimum of 16 liters

i always give them more space because i use a root booster and the roots go nuts on the shit

best of luck bro looking forward to this grow when are you going away

Cheers dirty. You answered my question. May as well run two 35l pots. I'm going to add better drainage this time.

Yeah bro make sure you got them boosted on a crate or something so flushing is not a pain in the ass ill have the report on bigbang tomorrow been sweated and now its hanging in nets for 24 hours till i jar it up for the cure

Cheers guys. Here's an update. I have read so many stories that this strain can hermie easy, it makes me paranoid lol.

Fully learned to lift them dirtynerd after the last one. Makes life so much easier and now I will be onto my run off more effectively.

Update time. Just got after being away for a week and it's booming. I still don't even need to water.

First photo is how I found them and the second is after taking a few tops and I tried a bit of super cropping for once. It seemed really easy.

I'll be vegging these for about another 4 weeks.

Looking good my bro are you going to be scroging again ?


what was the yield of the Bigbang ?

Yeah man, I'll give it another crack. I've got insulation guys coming at the end of the month, so I can't put it into the screen till after that as I have to shut it all down and hide the plants in the house for the day while they work.

Big Bang in the end was just over 11.5

I had to do the same had a rent inspection sucked as i needed to take the girls out of the scrog now i can't get them back in with out breaking them so it's shit!

11.5 is good bro well done my bigbang got 11 but was main lined shes a good yielding plant not the best smoke i have had but she was okay

Going to keep an eye on since your setup is similar to mine. Good luck on the grow, looks good so far!

Here's an update, they are one day shy of 5 weeks veg. I have still only feed them ph water and some root booster. I also foliar spray nitrozyme.

I fucked up a couple of super cropping on two branches and broke them. Not to fussed as I've got another 3 weeks veg and they are going to be big haha

I'm so surprised how fast they bounce back from super cropping. Plus they seem to come back with a vengeance

Looking good bro only they are going to be beasts never mind with the broken branches they heal and most of the time become the best colas two month veg is where it's at anyway keep up the good work bro

5 weeks down. I've started tying them down and a little more supercropping.

Started to feed a little bit of all sorts, root booster, nitrozyme, guano veg nutes.

Hey dirty. If I was to run 4 plants in this 1mx1m scrog. What size pots would you run? Surely squeezing in 4 35l would be overkill or maybe not haha

I think going with 15/20L pots would work great for that size tent in a scrog or you could even not scrog and have a veg room and a flower room

2 in the flower room then a month later add another 2 and pull every month i did it on my last run and it worked really well end of the day its up to you scroging is good but it limits the tent

I was thinking about setting up another tent to do this, as it would work better for me. I just need to get another fan and tent but. It might be something I'll do later in the year

Updated photo - 5 1/2 weeks into veg.
