400 watt HPS Stealth Box, 12/12 from Seed

Subbed! Looking good NMH!

whats your temps?
Do you have more fans going than just the comp fans?
nutes?
Size of pots?


You can also get some wood and burn it. Use the charcoal as nutes. Just crush into a kinda powder and place on top of soil, Then water to soak into soil : )


I feel ya on the ramon noodles! lol! I lived off of those things for months! Id hate to even think what that did to my blood pressure, Ha. SO much salt content.
But they are cheap and edible!


Looking great! Subbed and +Rep for the good job!

Temps usually range from 82-86 f

I have the one intake cpu fan, and one outtake cpu fan, then an oscillating on in the back that points at my HPS. Then I usually have one pointed in the room blowing in.

I use Foxfarm Big Bloom and Fox Farm tiger Bloom for nutes

My pots are 6 inch pots, and 2 in the bigger 9 inch pots. So far pot size has only made a difference in how often I need to water, so Im going to stick to small ones in the future to fit more plants.

edit: Yea ramen definatley messed up my body a bit. Far further than marijuana ever could ;)
 
By the way guys, thank you for all the great comments. This is my first true grow, and I am wondering how many more weeks you guys think these babies have until harvest? I am hoping another 2-3 weeks and I should be chopping them down. I am going to get the micro from radio shack and pull em down when I get some amber trichs.
 
- Day 46 -

One of my babies isn't doing so hot, you can see it in the pictures. She's droopy with spots all over and wierd discoloration. Other than that, everything si going great. The two with heat stress are recovering alright, but one looks like the leaves get worse each day, so I dont know, you guys be the judge. I am hoping to cut one down in 2 weeks. Should I start flushing now? Or do I want to do that only 1 week before chopping?

I decided im going to give them all 1 tbsp of molasses til harvest. The last 4 days I might try and give them apple juice, I hear it makes them sweet. I wanna fatten my budz up!

EDIT: and for the apple juice idea, id give it a try on a few :) let us know how that works! haha, do a personal taste test of no apple juice, and one with :-P see how it works for it :-P

Ill try it on 2, see the two short ones? Im pretty sure they are the exact same strain, so I'll do one with apple juice, and one without.
 
2 weeks is a Long time to flush. people do it but I wouldint..

Standard flush time or soil is 1 week and 3-4 days with hydro.

If you feel super paranoid just lessen the strength of the nutes per watering throughout 2 weeks.

But other than that The ladies are looking great! I dont think its crabs. They would be on all of the plants : /


How far is that light from the plants? If you have the proper vent. I would make sure the lights are properly set at 12-18 inches above the tops of the ladies :)

I think I do need ot raise the light a little, it's pretty close. But I hear that flushing for 2 weeks is good, specially if I add molasses for the bud fattening.
 
"Pre harvest flushing is a controversial topic. Flushing is supposed to improve taste of the final bud by either giving only pure water, clearing solutions or extensive flushing for the last 7-14 days of flowering." - RIU's FAQ : )

But besides the FAQ ive always been told to flush only for a week, Other than that your just reducing yeild.

BUT! None of this is fact. Flushing is only because of personal taste. It does not even need to be done!
(You may have some Harsh Smoke though)


I didint flush my first grow because of time limit needs. But it was fine. It was just some badseed, But smoke was just fine, nice and smooth : )

Hmmm, well I will experiment a little then. On one ill flush now with molasses til harvest, and on the other I will give molassess and nutes, and the apple juice. We shall see what happens since these two should be ready in two weeks.
 
yup yup. Thats what I do with my grow. Like this grow I did a VS. between trimming the fan leaves right after topping (young trimming) or not.

It has deff. turned out...Dont trim! at all! never! ever ever! the fan leaves are basicly power houses for the buds! No Trimming = Bigger Buds.

Guys, I hate to say this, but sadly, all the girls are now gone. My wife was sick of the box and told me it's her or the plants, so I had to cut them all down :(. (I am still drying them in secret, gonna see how the smoke is even though they weren't near ready.) It is a sad day... Good luck guys, keep on growing.
