So these bad girls were born the day before halloween. right now are under a 65 watt CFL (4500 lumens) and 3 cfl 26 watts (5400 lumens). I have a C02 booster made from yeast and sugar which have made a dramatic difference since placed in there. The Winter Green OG is topped and the purple tonic is FIMed. I water only when the top soil is wet. I fert every 3 - 4 waterings. They also got a foliage feed of epsom salt today with PH controlled water. They are starting to show signs of nute block from high PH in the process of fixing that next watering. Any suggestions on this? bongsmilie

@Do3sha I just added the big light with is some 4500 lumens and im at like 9500 lumens with the lights in the pictures above and i just added one one 20 watter with some 2,000+ lumens. Im kinda on a budget so lights come as the plants grow lol. but now that i found the big lights im gonna be adding them.

@kush plant Its inside a grow box made from wood and dry wall with en exsuast cut out at the top and an inlet at the bottom by the fan.

If the PH of the soil is too high because of the tap water i was using to correct this problem i just start using PH controlled water and it will correct itself? Or is there something i have to do with the soil?

yea im using nutes i forgot what brand. It aint no fox farm but it gets the job done nicely. Im thinking about throwing them into flowering as soon soon as I get another 65 watter and then add another one a lil later. Any suggestions on when i should start germinating my next seeds? or when i can take a clone or two of these ones. If they them into flowering is it too late to take a clone?

These pictures dont do justice for them. they were takin lastnight right after adding another 65 watter in there and bringing it up to 14000 lumens. They drastically grew bigger overnight Ill have some pics up later. Gonna be switchin over to 12/12 pretty soon :mrgreen:

thnx for the advice. Im hoping to get one more 65 watter within the week to throw them into flowering. If not i'll probably add a couple 26 watters i still have that i was going to use for my next seedlings in there untill i get the big light. Cuz im worried about height right now its about 1/3rd of the limit. Any idea when i should start my seedlings for the next grow. I got another box to veg them in.

Start them when you start to flower. And they will almost triple in size while flowering. So strt flowering now then (you can flower as early as 4 weeks) just make sure you get any males outta there as soon as they show forsure signs of sex, not a maybe sign, a for sure sign.ventelation will help out alott btw

Allright cool thats when i was planning to start them. Allright well im gonna give them like a day of veg with the new lights added then throw them in flowering. Should i change the nutes i have for flowering? Im using vigor (12-10-2) right now just started doing a lil less then half dose. Seems to be doing fine for the veg stage. I have a ventalation hole up at the top and another hole just below the fan.

Gonna be switching to 12/12 tonight. With lights off at night im hoping it cools off in their and the purps really shows. Clipped some fan leaves that were clocking light from some of the middle branches.

Day 3 of flowering. Just started to germinate my next seeds. Have 8 mids and 4 purple mistriss. Going to try 12/12 from seedling and see what it can produce since these seeds are both sativa strains and I have plenty to spare. In a week going to start my next batch of dank seeds to start vegitation . Going to make a smaller veg box and going to be vegging for 1 month then throw them into this as the flowering box.

My computor been messing up on me so havent had the time to update. but these were taken yesterday. the purple tonic has been sexed and is a girl. I trimmed her a little to allow more light penetration but not much. Another thing since the last post i blieve ive added more lights. Im running a little over 250 watts now and some like 17,000 -20,000 lumens. Ive also added another exhuast fan. I threw in a yeast C02 booster yesterday also. Anyone got any idea why the tips make that hard turn downwards?

Edit: the seedlings in the 2nd row got started and are going to be an experiment. They are going directly into 12/12.
