OK so today has been 2 full weeks of veg and these plants have far surpassed to rate of growth in any soil or coco I have ever done. Probably gonna switch them into flower real soon and add the second 1000 light in there. The last of these pics is after a little bit more of LST
Man, every time I get to clicking links in people's sigs, it seems to lead me to a never-ending supply of info...thanks again RIU. Sub'd

One thing I wanted to add to this grow just in case of a power outage is a UPS (uniterupted power supply). They are made for computers in the event the power goes out. Although they may not hold enough juice to keep your lights running they will however power your water pumps if you have a aeroponics system or your air pumps for a DWC. The plants can go a little bit without light if they have to, but losing power to your pumps (water/air) can kill your plants in a matter of hours. So in that event this is good piece of equipment to have and its better than scrambling in a rain storm running around town trying to find a generator to power your equipment so your plants dont die. They come in different sizes and prices to fit your needs. I would def get the bigger or the bunch they have larger batteries and can power stuff longer if they need to.

Wow I wish my roots looked that good. Im getting more and more into those aero cloners i love what your doing. I couldn't agree more on the smaller lids I have the large ones and its just too much space. Keep up the good work +rep

Ok so after 18 days of vegging I finally switched the plants over to the 12/12 flowering cycle. I also brought in 2 1000 HPS as opposed to the single 1000 MH on a light mover that they were vegging under. They are currently on day 2 and today I dumped out the buckets reservoirs rinsed them out and refilled with the 8/16 micro/bloom lucas formula solution. Which with a little tweaking in the veg ratios ( instead of 5/10 i ended up with 10/5 and still think they could have used more nitrogen) but still really seems to be kicking ass and living up to its name.

Ok decided to add a 3rd 1000 watt light to this grow except this one is a metal halide. So ive got 3000 watts in a 4x8 area Im really trying to push these plants to the limits Ive got the ppms up to 1300 and have been refilling the buckets every 3 days and correcting the ppms/ph. These plants are really starting to show flowing now the stems are thickening up and the nodes are stacking together and starting to push out hairs.

Damn dude that looks so killer! So you'll have to rotate the plants every once in a while now, right?

You need to buy the seeds that are a purple strain. Another way is to make are temps a lot colder. That will turn the leaves purple.
