First of all I'd like to thank everybody for there info. This site was instramental in my success. Mainly in just undersatndig what is going on......this is my first time after all
Equipment
One hydro kit..im sure youll recognize it
8 4 ft flourescent tubes(4cool and 4 warm)
3 100 watt cfl outdoor lamps
So in the pictures youll see some just after there transfer during seedlin stage up till now. From germination till today was 30 days. Pretty quick. I am very impressed with the kit. It came with good quality nutes and it has been a breeze to grow these babies. I did however buy a larger airstone at the pet store, it works using the "wick" method. We used the tube lights both red and blue spectrum for veg. The three Cfl's came later, the last week of veg. we will use those to flower along with the red tubes. I figure the red cant hurt even though they arent that strong.
on the pics the plants are all different hieghts because I got some name brand seeds and then an indoor mix. it has proven to be very fun and I should get good choices for round two. I just cloned them, I have 8 plants total and and i did two clones each. I experimented with topping techs as well as two plants per pod so the set up is like this
1 blueberry topped
1 blueberry fim'd
1 blue topped sharing a pot with a mix seed untopped
2 mix seed sharing untopped
1 mix un topped
1 mix topped
Im try this sog tech, im flowering with the tallest plant almost 12 in and the shortest at about 8 in. I have prune the bottom to create a kind of canopy.
IS THIS CORRECT???????
Pruning was only dried leaves from bottom, un wanted fan leaves from bottom or any that covered what I thought might grow big juicy lovelis. the topping and cloning. I have deduced and set my room so that I have at least 100 watts per sq ft of grow space, red and blue specrum for both veg and flowering stage. a small fan is in the corner, It is in an unused closet so I have blacked out all outside light and the walls were already flat white.
I will have my choice of clones once these are sexed and they should be ready to flower right when these are harvested. So the box looks great right now but will be thinned once the males reveal themselves. Round two will be all females crowding the box like it is now.
WHAT I'VE LEARNED
1. create your plan of attack before you begin (I have avoided many nightmares by thinking it out first.
2.There is no such thing as to many pitchers, buckets funnels or any other water related apperatus.
3.Hydro(for me anyway) has proven to be the fastes and easiest way to grow these lovlies. I had friends who grew in dirt with poor lighting and the things look like the charlie brown christmas tree.
4. Rollitup.org is one of the best sights to do your research and learn the important things, no matter how small they might be.
TO ALL THE OTHER NEWBIES OUT THERE......LISTEN TO YOUR ELDERS... THEY KNOW.
