500 Watt Blackstar Grow- 5 L.A. Confidential, 1 OG Herojuana (3rd LED Grow)

sleezy1 · Aug 18, 2011

My girls are starting to settle in and are growing pretty well. I am definitely going to have to top them pretty soon. Lowered my lights down to 14 inches above the canopy and watered today. Added roots excelulator, and drip clean to my watering. Besides that nothing else of significance going on.

Hey where is your grow journal link? I want to follow that grow! What size blackstar is that?

Hey sleezy! That is a 240w HO (high output) light which I use for veg. I have a 2nd on the way I just ordered yetserday

This is a link to my grow. I started out with the 240 and 2 90 watts so i called it the 420w grow, but now im using a 500w blackstar through flower > https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/445112-420w-led-kush-hydroponic-closet.html

Im subbed up for your grow for sure! Im curious to see how we compare since im growing LA con also (4 of my 9 are LA)

Started feeding my plants 25% of nute strength of House and Garden. Hopefully I don't get any nute burns with the FFOF soil mix. I wanted to be a little more aggressive with my feeding, and I started 2 weeks earlier than I normally would. If I get any nute burns in the next couple of days, I will flush my plants and wait. The girls are doing pretty well, with most of them around 12-13 inches tall. The smallest is the OG Herojuana, but that has grown to 5 inches.

Looking good Sleezy! I'm dealing with a PH issue and once that's sorted out I will initiate a journal. I want to kick myself for not sticking with a Ocean Forrest or Sunshine mix.

What did you switch to that you dont like as much?

BlackMesa · Aug 20, 2011

It's called Garden safe Organic soil, It's decent stuff as an additive but has issues with PH when used as the primary component. I have since changed my mix and just use it as an additive but for a few plants I'll just have to deal with it by watering with PH adjusted water.

Nice! Im going to check it out right now!

Everything is going pretty much on schedule. Here are some pics of my sleeping beauties. I did have very very slight nute burns from trying to feed early. I think I am going to hold off on the nutes for the next couple of feedings. I will take some LED pics later tonight when they are awake.

Thanks to all of you who have subbed and are viewing this journal.

The girls are flourishing and looking very green and healthy. Watered yesterday plain ph'd water with roots exceulator. At lights out I started applying the Magic Green foliar spray. Even the OG herojuana is growing a little faster and is now at 7 inches tall. All the LA Cons are around 16 inches tall now.

Now Sleazy maybe I'm wrong but I would be concered about any foliar sprays with light off. As far as I know you should only spray foliar sprays when lights first come on.
This could bring back a bad memory of the dreded PM
Keeping your girls wet for extended periods of times could raise issues.
Just my thoughts
anyway looks good and keep up the great posts brother.
