whats happenin daisy

i am about to germ sone snowryder seeds in a few minutes. glad i found this grow. how long did it take to show signs of sex? im subbed up.

peace

hey took about i think 4 weeks or so lil pistles showed up

here are some new pictures this is starting WEEK 7 - they say about 9-10 weeks for these we will see

Looking nice n short. Just cut mine at week 10, so yeah, they will probably take the full 10 weeks for decent harvest. Keep the humidity down, had it a bit high (bout 45-60% RH) and lost some grams to mold, nasty shit.

Good luck

sup thanks for the heads up about humidity. mine is around 45-60 also but i have 3 fans on high 24/7 on the buds so we will see

just grabbed some AN B5 nute and added to the plants, kind of late to add this but oh well , also i am changing the light schedule today from 18/6 to 12/12 because i moved 2 mother plants to another area in my closet i made for them and i am placing them under 250W MH Hortilux Blue Lamp. I am going to take clones from 1 of my mother plant (which is blueberry kush) 2 weeks before i harvest the Snowryders so that after harvest, the clones should have enough roots and i will move them under 12/12 to bloom!

so summary is, snowryders where under 18/6 600W HID Hortilux dual spectrum light from seed
7 weeks and a half into grow, changing lights to 12/12 because of setup and grow area division
all my autos will now go directly under 12/12 600W HID Hortilux dual spectrum light
all non autos will go 1 month under MH 18/6 then move them in grow room 12/12 HID.

the CFL's i had were used once only to sprout the snowryder seeds.. I will no longer be using CFLs anymore.

will post pics on next update after i flush in a few days

moving youor autos to 12/12 will stunt their growth a whole lot. but hey if you gotta do it then do it haha always nice to build a new setup. they look real nice. such long fingery leaves

peace

havent noticed any stuntent growth at all. the nugs continue to fill up and getting fatter

whats the deal with your ac. is it a in window kind or like de humidifier unit? your grow looks good. u done any pruning?

its a portable ac LG 9,000 cost $299 at home dep, evaporates water so no draining needed. it comes with a vent you hook it up to any window and close it and it exhausts the hot air from the ac out your window.

yes i have done pruning only one time during i think in between week 4 and 5 , got 2 fans 24/7 on them on high (their not that powerfull got it at walmart for 14) their clip on fans, but they work perfect for me.

6" intake going in, got a regular fan outside pushing air inside from the ac or window at night cold air comes naturaly in

and exhaust i have a good fan hydrofarm 450cfm pulling hot air from cool tube lamp through 6" carbon filter and up out the celing of the room to roof.

so i got plenty fresh air coming in and nice steady temperature , no root problems at all in fact my roots are super white and they grew sooo much its taking up a good 2-3 inches on the bottom of the tank.

my exhaust blows cold air in directly hitting my tank so cools the water in my tank and i read that your water in the tank should be 10 degrees colder than the grow room temp.





here are some pics from tonight

i seriously think they got quite fatter over night , they drink about 1 gallon - 1.5 gallon of water a day

i put in dose of 15ml micro, grow bloom every 4-5 days, not giving it anymore big bug or b-12 according to AN schedule. im gonna flush week 9 first day for a week then HARVEST! i wonder how much i will get from this, anyone want to guess? i have no clue

starting week 7 is thursday.

i checked under microscope, there are some amber but most of them is still clear

according to my schedule i am going to be flushing with final phase this thursday sep 16th , but i think i messed up on the calender i wrote to flush this date, but this is week 9 and i should flush week 10, i will keep checking under microscope to see how the trichnomes color change if its 50/50 soon i will just go ahead and start flush before end of week 9

the leaves are not turning yellow, shouldn't they turn yellow? or will they turn yellow when i flush?

the 3 pictures on the bottom are my new autos, 2 weeks vegging norther lights and jock horror

what are your temps like? leaves are curling in alot to keep cool. lookin dank man you should have a nice stash after harvest. how many plants is that?

lata

yea i dont know why they r doing that but the fan was on high 24.7 on them always so i bet that is why cause temp in there is 70s up down a few always

theirs 3 of them smushed together kind of sucked cause they grew so wide i should of spaced them out more that 10 gallon tank i got is only filled 4-5 gallons total with 6 3.75" net pots on it

ok i started the flush today... 40ml final phase advanced nutrients for 6 hours as per indicated to use only for 6 hours then replace tank with just water for the rest of the flush..



the trichomes are blurry with a few amber.. mostly blurry, a handful clear but going on blurry


edit.. just flushed tank again removed the final phase after 6 hours and now the tank has only ro water ph 5.8 ppm 50

yes they will stull ripen even though nutes are being taken out
