The girls are in! They are dated 3-29-11 from cut. Looking real nice and the smoke is excellent. Going to keep them in the tray for one more day then ill transplant to the hydro system.

25 Platinum Bubba Kush






and the nuggs...



lemon kush

HIP HIP HURRAY they came. Cant wait to see your system in action. That kush looks great but I do like the Lemon a little more just looks to be pretty damn dense.

Everything looks great! Can't wait to see how this one turns out - looks like it's going to be great.

Thanks bud and welcome to the thread. + rep

Happy 420 guys!!! Got a hold of some Golds Gift that is just ridiculous. I have to sit down right after if I take a big bong toke. Hows your guys 420 going so far?

As for the girls they went in some shock the first couple days into their new environment. I kept them in 8 hours of darkness right after I transplanted them into the pots but I guess they still didnt agree with it for some reason. Anyways they've been In the Veg room for alittle over a week now and are back to looking healthy. I've been foliar feeding with the water from the res tank a couple times a day. They are now getting the full lighting with all 4 florescents in. I doubled the nutes from last week and so far have only seen better results.




Its funny how some fans work better hanging upside down. This was actually the best way to get all the leaves moving and only needing the slow setting.

Nice update. My 420 was great, picked that day to perform a final flush with some FF Sledgehammer I just picked up. Seems to be a good product - makes the water all dark and foamy so it seems like you are really doing something, we'll see if it helps the end product. Good to see everything is progressing nicely.

Yeah when I used Final Phase it makes the water look like candy... turning it pink/red. The roots are already protruding through the bottom of the pots. Im hoping most stay in the pots so I can transplant easier.

Just to give you an idea of how fast the girls are growing I took a couple pictures 2 days later. 2 plants were swapped so dont be tripped out too much.

very nice, great to see it coming to. whats up with the one in the top pic far left third back( got some drying/dieing going on)?

Yeah theres 2 plants that got a little burned on the oldest leaves. I mentioned earlier that they went through shock when I transplanted them into their new environment.

Its almost FIM time!

Today was the second reservoir change so starting on the 3d week. I might have waited a day too long but I went ahead and FIM'ed for the first time. I also spread the plants apart giveing them room to grow. Last time around I let them stay pot to pot the whole 4 weeks and had bad results. I moved the worst looking and possible mothers to the top level. The bottom level is starting to look very flush. The third row is the only row I didnt FIM. The empty pots are in there just to give the roots more shade, although I'm thinking that the light getting to the roots coming out of the pots is a good idea for my veg set up so that the roots that protrude through get shocked. I'm assuming this encourages roots to just root-bound the pot, making it easy to transplant week 4 to the Bloom Room. Keeping in mind that when you pull those plants out of the smaller pots you want to damage the least amount of roots that have protruded through the pot as possible. This is just a little theory I came up with lets see how it plays out. Anyways here's your pictures...

very nice.. are you spraying them with just water?

I foliar feed with the water from the resi, when they are getting watered about two times a day.

Got 4 more days till I transplant the girls to the budding room. Getting really excited to see my improvements in action. Unfortunately I think I only Fimmed 4 or so plants correctly... but other than that they are looking real healthy and getting allot bushier than my previous grows. I think spreading them out week by week really helped. Im still using the same nutrients of sensigrow A+B and great white but are using 18 fl oz and 5 scoops. The middle row is the ones that havent been fimmed.





stay thirsty my friends

Coming along very well. So green and healthy. Wish I could buy you a XX and tamale to say muy bueno, but here's some rep instead.

Didnt get to the transplant this weekend getting paid today or tomorrow so I get get the nutes and transplant tomorrow forsure. I think its pretty confirmed that I did a shitty job on my first FIM. Havent seen any split in colas just fucked up the growth of the fan leaves. Oh well hopefully next time goes better but they are still looking amazing. Even though I didn't FIM right they are still branching out. After the transplant.. the left side of the room with the 9 slots is going to be BEAST. The 4 I left unfimmed are getting large and thick. The others went through small shock but are only about 2 days behind the others. Should be a fun update tomorrow stay tuned.

Looking really healthy. Your setup is really tight, bro. Subbed.
