My rubbermaid carbon filtered grow box

What up growman? Ive been good working and going to school the norm. You been good? As you can see I've done some changing along the way its turned out nicely though.

I got hairs on every new node now. GWS is the same height is Arjans Haze #1 now. Gigabud is staying compact like the breeder guide says. If the gigabud is some decent smoke I might end up buying some more seeds from them on my next order. I'll update with pics tonight when I get off work till then.

:leaf:Peace:leaf:
 
UPDATE:

Day 32,25,4 Everything going good still. For some reason the haze plants leaves are looking really twisty. No browning or anything but it just worries me. The Great White Shark is about even with the Haze and Gigabud still staying small. Haze plant has no hairs but calyxes on every new node. Deffinately not balls just taking some extra time to push her hairs out. Here are the pics I'll let those do the rest of the talking.

Hey GFK nice pics mate. You can easily tell which ones the shark with those jagged leaf edges. I have one of those seeds in my collection so I'm interested in how yours turns out.
The haze could be doing that for a few of reasons.
PH? Do you check it.
Over watering - Maybe she drinks less than the others?
Needs a bigger pot. What size pot do you have her in?
These are a few things I would look at to start with.
 
Mammath the haze's soil ph is right at 7. Water ph is 6.0 I just started using R.O. water from walmart. It has a 7.0 ph but I lower to 6.0 just to keep it from raising the soil ph. You might be right about the pot size they are in 2 liter bottles with the very necks cut off. I was planning on repotting next tuesday when I get paid. I gotta buy soil and more grow bags. I think she can wait a week or atleast I hope she can. Also I think I am jumping the gun on her being a him. I have never done a full sativa maybe they just take a lil longer to poke their hairs out. Looks deffinately like calyx's but with not hairs yet. I'll just wait it out and see what the turn out is.

Accutally the GWS is 75% sativa and only 25% indica. It just picked up the indica leaves. Got the seeds from dope-seeds.com from Dutch Quality fem I think I don't remember I'll have to check again. Pretty sure it is Dutch Quality fem they are at the bottom of the page.

Yeah I'd say she's pretty root bound in those bottles. It may be why she struggling to show full sex because she's under stress.
Get her into a bigger pot soon, I think you'll be surprised at what you see when you slip her out that container.
 
Thats what I was thinking. You think a week will be alright (kinda waiting on my paycheck) I think I might have one grow bag left I'll just have to REALLY look tommorow when I get off of work. And one pot left of the Roots Organics potting soil. I hope I can find the grow bag. sucks though I'll have to transplant inside the dresser cause I don't have a door yet. ugh........

That doesn't sound like fun. I think she'll slip out really easy though because she'll be all roots. Transplant sooner the better, but you still gotta work around your schedule and finances. I've seen plants a lot worse than her before that have still picked up nicely after transplanting. you really should do them all too at the same time ;-)
 
I will be doing all the same time. It won't be bad getting them out. I put them in 2L bottles cause I knew if I HAD to take them out all I have to do is take a box cutter and carefully cut the bottle open all the way down. I'm going today when I get out of class. I'm not sure wether I should get two or three gallon bags. 2 L is only a half gallon so if I get a 2 gl bag that will be upping by x3 if I get a three gl that would be x5. I think I'll go with the 2gl so I don't run out of room now that height isn't an issue I don't want to LST the haze plant just leave it like it is.

I'll have pics of the ladies in their new homes later tonight.

UPDATE:

Alright guys today is day 33/26/5. I stopped by the hydro store on my way home from class and picked up another bag of roots organics potting soil and some 2 gallon grow bags. I cut away the bottles on all plants and transplanted into their final home. Mammath you were right about the Haze being root bound thanks a million. I pulled her out and all you could see was roots no soil at all lol. The gigabud was pretty close to the haze plant and the GWS well she could've stayed for a while but changed her anyways. Also added 4 more bulbs. 2 23w 2700ks and 2 27w 6500ks. Watered all plants with Super Plant Tonic after I transplanted to get roots going again. I said I was gonna update with pics but after the hour and half long transplant I didn't feel like it. Pics tommorow night. Once again thanks a million mammath.

No worries mate, that's what this RIU community is all about. ;-)
They'll really get on with it now with fresh soil and room to grow.
Looking forward to the pics and seeing some serious budding in the weeks to come.
 
UPDATE:

Day 35/27/7 aight guys got the ladies transplanted and everything. Did some light LST on the Haze plant with some pipe cleaners acting as weights. I didn't think about not being able anchor with the grow bags. I'll have to figure something else out for the GWS. The haze plant is really really really rubbery. The GWS is more of a twig lol. I hope I can keep the height under control. I was talking with the fiance and we were talking about next grow and what not. Only doing one next time and vegging and topping and LSTing. These fuckers are getting out of control height wise. OH well here are pics. Sorry they aint that great but its kinda hard to take pics outside the cab. I'd say plants are right at about two feet a lil more. Damn these bitches need to slow they roll.

Those look really good. Still diggin the dresser ^^. Lookin great man. Cant wait to see some more progress.
 
Thanks bro. I thought it was a pretty good idea myself lol. Can't wait to finish it it will look soooo much better without the black bag tapped over the front lol. Keeps light out though so no worries.

Hey GFK well done on the transplanting.
Can't see any shock what so ever.
It takes time to dial your set up in and there's always plenty we learn along the way we can apply to the next grow. That's what its all about.
If you want you can anchor your LST to the bags with some good ol' duc' tape. It works at holding your strings to the bag.
You can also control vertical climb by pinching the main stem at the top where it's soft, not bending, just pinching, it will slow them down.
There are also other products like Bushmaster and Aussie made Rock Juice that will stop them in there tracks vertically.
I prefer the Rock Juice, not because it's Aussie, it's just a better product overall. Look into the comparison. Link>>>
Lookin good though mate.
Keep us posted.
 
Alright ducktape sounds good. I've heard about the bushmaster never heard of the rock juice. I'm just a lil iffey on giving them a poison ya know. I don't know I think I might just utilize the LST a lil more. I'm sure the ducktape will work pretty good anyways.

Yeah, the reason it stunts them is that poisoning aspect. Little scary hey?
Stick with the LST and a bit of pinching should do the trick.
