Yeah well, who hasn't raped a deer or two, right? And up here in the tundra, farts, and their resulting humor, are pretty much what keeps us going through the mind-numbing winters....:lol:
And, BTW, I spent a good share of the morning reading all 155 posts...:bigjoint:

Keep it up. And here's a couple of pix from my latest Mini Cool Cab grow... Peace.

Oh...look.... a deer...!
hahaha nice lookin plants man! especially the last one :hump:

I think today's a little too early to post, I'll probably do it tomorrow when I decide to feed it again.

Is tomorrow too early to start feeding it growth nutes? It'll be day.. 17 from sow, so 2 weeks at least from sprout.

hi chowda
Theres a guy in my journal who posts called Mared,You have probably read some of them.
He gave me a great piece of advice which i will share with you,in the veg stage your plants will let you know "when" they need nutes,if your plants look healthy leave them alone and just keep on doing what you are doing.It is very easy in veg to overnute your plants.the soil you are using probably holds around 4 weeks worth of feed anyway.I was mad eager to get started on nutes in the veg stage but the truth is my plants didnt need it at all.

Its true though aint it....you read all these journals that are using nutes so you think your missing out on something.....my plants were 14-16inches tall 22 days from seed and all i used was root complex for the first week or so and a drop of supervit in my water

If my plants tell me tehy need feedin in veg i just repot them into a bigger pot, dont really use nutes til second week of flowering and then itsonly till 6th or 7th week and then its flush.

hrm woah ok I'll take that into account. It's my first time using nutes, so I guess I'm just a little anxious to do it up :)

I'll probably start giving it nutes around the week of the 1st or the following week.

UPDATE DAY 18

:leaf: PICSPICSPICSPICSPICSPICS :leaf:

Temperature: 78 degrees F
Humidity: varies between 30-40%.










I'm really excited about how fast they're growing :-P They seemed to be down a bit before, but now they've exploded! Very excited indeed :hump:

They've already started to smell a tiny bit, I got a nice whiff of ganja when I opened my closet this morning :bigjoint:

whats up chowda! Another New Englander here. just read your whole grow journal, your plants look great. dont rush to give em nutes, they can go at least 4-6 weeks without a drop of nutes. nutes too soon can kill them. being that you have another 5 weeks of indoor growing i would add the 4 6500k cfls back to the room. put 1 in each corner so the ones that arnt directly under the MH get enough light too OR every couple of days switch all the plants from the middle with all the plants on the edges. if they are all the same size then you shoukld be fine, just keep an eye out for runts on edge and swap em to the middle. i would consider topping them at between week 4 -6 depending on size, it will greatly increase your yield.

i posted some pics of my current grow. in these pics they are a few days into 12/12 under a 400 w HPS (cant do outdoors). the 4 in the middle are kush, the rest are bag seed. the 2 bigger ones were topped at 4 weeks old and it really boosted thier growth. they are now 6 days older than these pics and the topped ones are 6+ inches taller and way bushier than the untopped ones. so i just topped them too.

i've been taking pics all along but havent started the jounal yet. i'll let you know when its posted. keep up the great work and i'll pull up a chair and be watchin this one.

LOL reallyz? Nah man I just drink it, but that's a very good idea, isn't flowering when co2 is essential?

That's great, I'm glad you pointed that out, I might try to feed them some of these then :) Thanks man :blsmoke:

Holy crap man thanks a bunch for stopping by, that's a lot of useful information, appreciate it.

I'd say around the week of April 1st I'll start topping then. I'm going to move the runts right now to the middle and add the lights. I also plan on keeping a couple in my closet to get some early bud before the outdoor harvest :bigjoint:

The week of 420 :weed: I'll put my babies outdoors and throw a couple into 12/12. How many do you think I could fit in my 3x3 closet? It's also about 7.5' tall estimate.

I'll keep an eye out for your journal brah thanks for stoppin by.

I would just keep it to 1-2 plants flowering in a 3x3 space. They grow like crazy once you put them into the 12/12!!! Keep on going man looking good!:weed:

I'd say at least 4 plants in that space, or 5 in an X pattern with one in the middle. you could do a mean SOG or SCROG in that space too which could be 9 or 12 ladies in there. i currently have 12 plants, 1 each per 5 gallon trash can in my 4x4 x6 tall grow room. i havent sexed them yet but i'm hoping to have at least 6 or more ladies in there by this coming friday.
