i think most of us hava a MG grow in the books..:eyesmoke::eyesmoke:bongsmilie
My smallest flowering dwarf is straight miracle grow organic and the other is mg org and jungle growth mix with colorburst is the soil. the biggest one i was going to scrog but then said fuck it and it ended up out groing the other one. sorry it took so long here are my ladies. jus tooke the pot in the front lefft of the topped plant out ii think i saw balls and it is under 20/4 250w hps. do male flowerr early like thatt. doesn't matter i killed it but i need to know, also i just started a dwc in this new cab i built (im so proud) 90 w led two seeds from cali (either grape ape or og kush dont know) 10 gal res 18/6. roots are poking out of net pots but i dont want to put in nutrient w/o ph up/down and ph meter. do i need this to give a lil nutrients or can i jus rely on my ppm meter. i ordered a meter and it still hasn't come

Hey All,

Quick question about my new 250 WATT Grow. I have a 2x2x4 space with plenty of ventilation. How many ladies should I do? I am thinking 2-3 although I could do 4.

Depend on the growth patern of your stain. If they branch heavy then 2-3 is the top. If it more of a main cola concentrated plant then 4 would be ok.

It would depend on the strain, as in how thick and bushy and wide they would get and if you may increase that by topping. I would say two good sized plants, not whoppers .. just good sized plants, would max you out. A 250-watt HID light should cover an area 3ft. X 3ft., so it would not be lack of light but instead lack of overall area/size to fit in more plants without cramming them in to tightly.
 
That of course means you will want to use feminized beans or grow from clones because you will not have the room to grow enough plants that after separating males you will be sure to have two, or maybe the three, females plants you hope for.

sounds good man males usually show earlier than females so you should be good.. when it comes to Hydro Mind or Crazy could help ya out i stick with soil..hell yeah man pops those seeds those are popular cali strains so most they likely are 1 or the other both nice strain especially that og kush:weed:..

Well i am going to harvest my two White Rhino plants on Friday. Friday will be the last day of it's 8th week in flowering. I checked them 2 days ago and i had about 30% amber and 60% milky with 10% clear trichs. I am going to check them again tonight when the lights come on. I also cut a sample branch 2 days ago and put it on top of my surround sound receiver to dry for a couple days. I just checked it and it is dry enough to test. Well i put a little piece in my bowl and just got done taking 2 good size hits and i am really happy with the buzz. I will cut them down on Friday and put them in my dry box. I should be able to put them in my jars on tuesday. My last grow i dried them for 4 days and put them in my jars and did the curing process and i loved the taste of the White Rhino after a couple weeks in the jars. I also have one Hindu Kush that will probably finish in a few more weeks. I hope it finishes fast so i can start my next grow. It is going to be a verticle scrog grow and i hope to fit 6 plants around my light. I dont have any new pics of the plants in the flowering room right now. I loaned my camera to a friend and i will get it back and post pics of the buds after i get them trimmed.

Yea this is my second grow with the White Rhino seeds. I need to place another order for more seeds soon. I will be ordering 5 fem White Rhino and i am thinking about trying a purple strain but not sure which to get. I want a strain that grows about the same as the WR. The WR is the perfect strain for my size of grow room. I dont have to veg it for more than 3wks and it finishes at around 31in tall after it has been topped. But once i start the next grow i can veg alot longer because i can weave it in the screen and take advantage of more bud sites. Cant wait. But i think my very next grow will be with my last 2 Hindu Kush seeds and some really good bag seed i have. Probably start like 12 seeds and hope to get 6 females. I really need to start the seeds in the next couple days so they will be ready to go into the flowering room as soon as the Hindu Kush gets done in a few weeks. I will try to post harvest pics but probably wont have my camera back by then. If not i will post pics of it when it is in the jars. Again i dont really dont worry about weight of yield because this is all personal use and i dont get all hung up on trying to compete over who can yield the most. But when i start to perfect my verticle scrog i will be checking weight of yield. The last grow i did 3 WR and 1 Mazar and had enough to smoke on for a couple months and i even gave away around half of it to some friends to try. This time it is ALL mine. LOL

Whats up every1 !
Thought id take ur advise and stick my pics of my grow up in ere if thats ok wretched! very cool thread.
Well im growing 6 autos under my 250w hps from start to finish. 5 of these are la diva (blueberry x diavolo) and 1 dinafem roadrunner. They were put into their bigger pots after around week1, using levingtons m.p with added JI with perlite hoping the pots are big enough it doesnt say on them but they look like 8l. Have just got the 1 desk fan oscilating in there, thinking im going to need another 1 seeing as i dont have proper ventilation set up. I know its not good to but the other grows i have done in there have worked MUCH better than ever i expected ... anyways here some pics of my lady friends the autos will post more as it progresses.
If any1 wants to hurl advise or tips at me feel welcome! :-P
Thanks for reading

Wrech,

I'm in the same boat. All kinds of experimentation after you get confident you know the basics. Made ebb and flow fence post tubes (almost done), getting some Sure-to-Grow inserts instead of using hydrotron, have about 12 different varieties counting all the free seeds you get with the orders for crosses. Mad scientist time in the grow room only!

Looking good T! I got one of those roadrunners free with my last order and wondered what it is like. Which one is the roadrunner? I have what you would call a rooting interest in your success! LOL!
