Siksol's 400w bagseed survivor grow!

So if you look through my previous grow thread, you can see I was going for a 14+ plant perpetual CFl grow. Well Something came up and I had to cancel the grow, I turned off the lights and never went back into the room for 2-3 weeks.

Now with no light and no water for around 3 weeks all had died but two that was in bigger pots. I figured what the hell Ill put them ouside and see if the survive. THis is what they looked like at that point. Which was on April 27th.




Now after being outside they quickly started to regain vigor and grow new growth. Things was going good and I switched them to 5 gal buckets about a week to week and half ago. I noticed they was continuing to try and progress through flower instead of re vegging in the sunlight.

So I brought them Inside to get them to reveg so I could get more size out of them before flower and put them in a spare bathtub with a 400w hps set to 20/4 to reveg them. They have been in there about 6 days and have started to reveg now and have been growing like CRAZY!!

I "super cropped" them or "snap'd them over" to control height as well as increase tops and yield. This was done just 2-3 days ago and they are taking to it very well already. Here they are now as of today!!






So in only 23 days from the time of the pics with the sickly little plants they have rebounded into some great looking plants that just continue to get better!!... I will start flowering soon as I think they have rebounded back from the super crop and get some mass to support the extra tops.

....For you MG soil haters this was all done in MG moisture control potting soil with no extra nutes and just tap water! so HA lol.

Any input, thoughts, comments etc will be greatly appreciated and will continue to update this thread! Thanks for looking.

I am using a 400w HPS now was gonna use two but it makes my temps to high. Yes I drilled drain holes in the bottom of the bucket and I do grow in that tub all the time its a spare bathroom I was in the middle of remodeling. Il take another pic later showing how the light is hang'd via a shower curtain rod lol!

Thanks everyone, yeah a spare bathroom is perfect, like you said the white walls, outlets, drainage water, exhaust fan usually... cant beat it. I have a A/C vent in there, and a exhaust fan they keep smell down good and the temps as well.

Yeah I was really suprised by their progress as well. Specially with a transplant, light cycle change, and super cropping all thrown in the middle!!!... Cant wait to see how they do has they heal from the super crop and cant concentrate just on growing!.. Hopefully I can put them back into a flowering cycle before to long. I wanna let them recover thicken up and let all the new tops to grow upwards with some new nodes before I do though.

That is pretty awesome man. Those plants looked a bit naked, they blew up like crazy. My plant has gone through some early problems but all those are fixed and she's blowin' up as well.

Thanks, yeah Im suprised with them. I thought when I tried to save them either they would die, turn hermie, or not be worth a damn due to all the trauma and what not. Very hardy bagseed strain here cant wait to see how it buds out and smokes!!

From today, going to put them into flower again starting 2 moro... all the various things these plants have been through between losing almost all growth, making new growth, starting flower, reveg, super cropping etc seems to have forced them to explode in all kinds of very dense intricate growth. Curious to see how they turn out in the end. From the looks of the branch, node spacing and structure I believe these may turn out to have very large and dense buds, far bigger than if I would have grown them in a normal manner.
