This is my 2nd go around with all these girls last run wasn't bad for my first grow. Learned alot and I'm definitely going to be putting it to use here.

The Setup

Closet: 6'x4.5'x6' LxWxH Flower room is only 3'x4.5'x6'

Medium: 75% FFOF 10% perlite 15% base organic soil. Mixed into 5 gallon smart pots.

Lights: These sexy ladies vegged under a 8bulb T5 4' fixture and flower power is from Apache Tech with their 600 watt beast!

Schedule: 24/0 vegged 12/12 flower

Nutes: House & Garden (A&B, Multi-zen,Amino treatment, Nitrogen boost, Top booster, Bud XL) Going to use Fox Farms Microbe brew and kangaroots for Micro life.

PPM/EC: Vegged out at about 600-700 PPM. Flower will be probably 1100 ish not trying to push limits


Enviroment: 78ish degrees no higher then 81 tops! RH sits right around 40-55%

Intake/ Exhaust: have a 400 CFM intake and a 440 CFM exhaust with intake "Y" to both rooms.

Strains- All these girls were clones off of my last round of girls

Day 7 from flip, looks like all the girls have just about transitioned and are shooting pistils so we are about to see them get big! I'm really happy to see them doing good. They are probably double the size of my last girls! I'm a little worried but I may have an opportunity to upgrade my space so if I need to I may end up doing that. Only time will tell... Really nothing new from there. We have our selves some sexy ladies so far! Also added a milk jug in for size comparison.

Day 18 Flowering
OK guys sorry it's been so long since updating been pretty busy lately. Then acquired some additional space for my flowering girls so I moved them out of the closet into their own room which is huge but I'm using just about 6x6x8 area of it trying to keep the girls in 4x4 of that mainly. I don't have it tented off like the original rooms but it doesn't need to be the girls have it all to their selves. And aside from the small amount of reflective light loss from no Mylar and maybe a slightly increased risk of pests I think their isn't a need for a tent. However I may build a 6x6 platform for them to sit on to help prevent pests further because the plastic dishes are just sitting on carpet. The ventilation is just 3 oscillating fans and our AC which keeps it between 70-78 with about 40-55% on RH. I have my window cracked then locked in place so air constantly is vented and exchanged.
In Short we got a massive upgrade in space and the girls love it! I will continue to veg in the half of my closet but the other half is mine again!
I did not take any closeups of pistils so I will do that tomorrow when I feed them.

Sour AK-Tied this baby girl down like crazy for better light penetration and it work perfect she looks much healthier

Critical Mass- I love how she grows nice and big shoots but not too much vegetation she's a beautiful plant

Pineapple Express- She may be small but she comes out swinging in the end. Definitely going to try to get her bigger next go around.

White Widow- She's the momma strain to my hypnotic.

Hypnotic-Can you tell they are related?

Overhead-I would also like to add that the only plant I topped was the Sour AK the rest just grew like bushes haha!

Day 27 flowering

Busy as always but here are the pics as promised. Few changes to the girls are: They are on a platform a little over a foot off the ground. Sitting in a flood tray 4x4. Aside from that they all are looking very good. My WW does have a def of some sort she was doing something similar last grow on FF nutes. I think it is cal-mag she may just be a whore. All the other girls are doing fine even the CM who I had trouble with last grow along with WW. So I believe she just wants more cal-mag then the other girls. I think Im just going to add some extra to everything I give her from now on.

Looking very good Op. your def dialing your ladies in much better this round. I can remember which plat it is but one of those is a cal/mag hog during flower as most of them didn't have that. gotta question for you tho your pretty much growing organic with thr FFOF and organic base except the nutes why don't you get some organic nutes. there are a lot of good liquid nutes out there but your doing some great work with the synthetic nutes so you might just stay with the formula you got. was just wondering since you have organic medium might as well feed them organic too. be careful with that window open don't want you getting pests coming in. how long you veg these cus I know you started with clones. very good bro keep up the good work

Thanks man these girls are going to be the death of me one day haha always have me worried and whatnot! I have been debating swapping over to hempy with my H&G nutes I just keep forgetting so even the girls im vegging now are soil. I would swap over to organic but I feel with my line the synthetic nukes literally negate the need. My pot of soil just doesn't have that rich bio-diverse soil it's more or less just a medium which is why I even recycle it. Something I probably wouldn't do with organics without giving the soil more work rather then a nice flush like I do and removal of majority of roots.
You are right exactly that would be my white widow she is just cal mag hungry I may have to just make her feed seperate because of that. My other girls do not want any more cal-mag or nutes they are happy with very mild nute burn. Jeesh my ladies flowering now are the tops from last grow so I would say about close to 10 weeks they were cloned mid march then were in dixies around april 8th so jeesh 10 or 11 weeksish veg time?

Thanks guys for stopping by sub up if ya haven't it's gonna be a nice ride!

Will be updating today after watering etc...
