Photo updates for the day I think they look great.

I decided to put another case together to separate the plants during flowering so I can maximize my yields. Now off to buy a used computer case ;)

THe OG is growing really fast compared to the Pineapple im moved them closer to the light today to see if that helps either of them out. My next grow im going to stop messing around with the CFL's and just get a 400wt HPS and make a custom box ;)

The size difference is most likely due to the strains. I wouldn't worry too much about it. Btw, this is coming out sweetly. I almost have my box done should be done by the end of the week. I put 4 bagseeds to germ today.

Day 14


As you can see they are growing nicely. I was wondering if anyone could help me out in identifying if Im having nute burn, light burn or insects. I think its a bit early to tell, I did feed the plants some nutes but flushed today, with 500ml to each plant. There are plenty of drain hole for each bucket.

I moved the plants closer to the CFL's so I could get them some more light and energy, they are stretching for that light which is pretty obvious after a few hours, so I turn them during the day when I can and for inspection of the case to make sure im not breeding any type of infestation.

I plan on putting the screen in there sometime tomorrow and letting them stretch a little more before I start flowering them on. I will top one of them, more than likely that with be the OG but I will let growth dictate that.

No signs of smell yet :hump:

Ill keep yall posted.

On second thought im not going to top these. They are my first plants and I just need to see how well I can grow on this go around. Next grow will be a bit larger so ill top on that one.

Those are coming along beautifully, bro. My seeds are still in the moist paper towel stage. Have you decided if you gonna scrog it yet? I am thinking of setting up a scrog in my cabinet also since its only big enough for 1-2 plants. Also don't be afraid to top it once or twice. It will help a bit when you LST them (if you do). BTW, how much did you pay for that humidity/temp thing? I need one of those badly.

Im making my own screen now, got some wire and various other things to construct a shelf that doubles as a scrog screen. Actually still have the receipt it was like $8 lol minus the batt but that was laying around. Not really sure when I should top it. To me they both look rather small, but then again im use to seeing much larger plants...

Moved them away from the light and now they are looking healthier than yesterday, guess the heat from being closer to the lamps where causing some problems either way there is some new growth on the RP OG Kush and PE. I orginiall intended to veg a bit longer but the OG is growing way faster than i expected it to.

From what Ive picked up from reading up here on the forum, you should top them after the 5th set of leaves. Just pluck the set that grows on top of that.

Day 15

I decided to top them today at the 4th developing set of leafs for space reasons.

Screen goes in another 5 days when i feed them some more, week after today ill set them into 12/12.

Hope they produce well I love it when a side project pays off. Cross your fingers for me on them staying females lol.

Best of luck, man. Hope you land those fems. Try to stress them as little as possible to avoid possible hermies.

I would hope that it falls into the category of "Seems Legit". Its a nice little waiting hobby and helps me kill time during the day to research and read more and more about growing and the different techniques involved; makes me feel like science is finally worth something in my life.

A friend of mine that has done a fairly large amount of larger grows informed me that the plants looked "stressed" so I took some of his "advice" today and put it to serious use, I wil monitor the growth/changes and document it accordingly. Don't worry my digital camera always has a full battery and my powers of Rhetoric are endless so updates will flow like a river. ;)
