First Grow (AG PRO 200)

[lurkmaster]

Went out of town for most of the weekend, came back and my plants grew so much... I'll post pics later.

So far it looks like the plants are loving the nutes, no signs of burn at all.

ooo man ff iz da shit ive started using it a lil while ago and for beginners its real easy, i picked up ff big bloom and a ph meter at a hydro store. but i had a question myself if i get grow big too should i mix it with da big bloom in the gallon container? or in seperate gallon containers?

You can just mix them in the same container.

Oops.. passed out early last night without posting pics.

Also, these plants are starting to smell a bit skunky, from 5-6 inches away you can smell em.

There lookin better man, cant wait to see them here in the next couple weeks

 

[lurkmaster]

Thanks man, Probably going to throw these into flowering friday (regardless of size, its been 4 weeks)

Unfortunately it looks like there's some kind of slime on the bottom of one of my sponges. I took a q-tip and wiped some of it off, but it didn't realy come off that easily.

I'm pretty sure its too late to change the sponge, there are roots growing out of all of the pores and shit.

The roots look healthy and white though so I'm not too concerned, if it gets way worse I'll transplant them.

They should be fine, i would wait like 2 weeks before flowerng, they are 4 weeks, but with all the stress, there only at like 2 weeks, if that makes sense. i would wait till there a lil bigger

Its probably just a nutrient buildup on the sponge now that I think about it.

I'm expecting some serious node growth this week so we'll see.

My max height for plants is about 22".

As soon as they hit 7" (they are about 3" right now) or so is when I'm going to switch my timer to 12/12 and give them a batch of tiger bloom.

Fa sho, sounds good

 

[lurkmaster]

Checked on the roots and they are getting huge, some of them are like fat spaghetti noodles. I'll do an update of the plants tomorrow, fan leaves are about 4" in diameter now from tip to tip.

Sounds good man, the roots get crazy, when i shut my op down, the root found there way in ever corner of the AG they could fit, its pretty amazing one you look at it all, all tangled together

Ok, so I've been flowering my girls for about 1.5 weeks and it looks like they are starting to show some sex. I definitley have 2 females. Can you guys take a look at these pics and let me know if you think these are males. I'm pretty sure they are but I want to get some second, third, etc. opinions just to make sure. I'd hate to kill a girl or a hermie and then regret it.

 

["SICC"]

definitely male man, look at those balls

 

[lurkmaster]

Last one is DEFINITELY male, other 2 look like males too.

Day 26 from seed:
Plants are looking really good, I really want to clean out my res and put some tiger bloom in there, but I'm going to try to wait til Friday.

Ever since I put foxfarm nutes in there these plants have been taking off and looking great.

Really hoping at least one of them is female.

Do both male and female plants get equally dank smelling? Or just females?

Also, I just bought 3 types of water from walmart to see which one had the lowest pH...

Distilled Water: 6.6
Drinking Water: 6.6
Spring Water: 6.6

Exact same pH across the board.

Also picked up another 42 watt 2700 lumen bulb.

I have my tiger bloom mixed up in the distilled water jug right now waiting for friday afternoon.. =]

There lookin great man, there starting to take off

Yo Lurk, where did you get the 42 watt bulbs? I went to Lowes and the biggest I could find was the 30watt-120equivs.

Plants are looking nice and green

Walmart and Target (2 separate trips)

They were like 7.50 at target and 8.50 at walmart.

They are listed as 2700 lumens per bulb.

So, I have been dealing with what I am going to assume is stem rot issues on my OG fast plant.

After a few days it started getting worse and worse and I could tell that the plant wasn't getting nutrients from the roots since the stem was dead in the middle, I made the split decision to chop her, and take as many clones as I could.

Rest in Pieces Seed #1

I'm going to be mourning the loss of my plant all day...

Here are some pictures of the problem, nobody was able to help me out at all except someone who told me that I had an air bubble in my clone, which is impossible because this plant was grown from seed.

I have my clones sitting in a humid dome in some peat cubes on my windowsill.

I also popped my last seed into a peat cube and stuck it in a shotglass with some water in it.

I am going to put this last remaining plant into flowering Tonight and give it a batch of tiger bloom.

I'm going to pray to the weed gods that this last plant is a female.
