5 Trees say hi (plus some extra babies)

Howdy IcMag, it's been some time now since i started a grow. This grow was intended to go on with 25-30 plants, for security reasons, i dropped their numbers down to 5.

I've been through lots of trouble even to keep those 5, i was very sad when i got rid of most of them. Since then i tried to increase their numbers again, got some Auto Seeds from a friend, took some clones too from my plants.

The big trees are 75 days old since germination from seed. I also have 5 auto Tutankhamon seeds from Paradise seeds and 2 clones from my BlackJack. I tossed the rest of the clones and some autos when i understood that after stretching for the big trees there will be barely any space left for the rest. I have those i kept, just in case, to fill the corners.

The 5 big trees have been growing with 5x600w for quite some time now (that electrical bill hurts, 1300 $ so far). The rest have just sprouted and the clones rooted a few days ago.

For flowering i intend to use 10x600w. I have 3000 CFM of active exhaust for ventilation, if ambient temps help, i believe i won't face problems with temps.

It's an odyssey so far, i seriously missed the times i had a 4x4 grow tent. Many mistakes from my side calculating wrong for plant numbers etc. I also have not trained the big trees so much, i intend to LST them hardcore these days. They have stretched a lot, it won't be that hard.

What did i forget? Oh, the strains for the big trees.

2xBlue Dreams from Humboldt Seeds
1xKandy Kush from Reserva Privada
1xC99 from female seeds (it has thrown many many preflowers, almost seems like its flowering for quite some time now, since light has never dropped below 18/6)
1xBlack Jack (very easy plant to clone, very nice plant.

The setup i want to have for flowering considering the bulbs is this:


x
.x...o...x
..
o...x...o
..
x ...o..x
.....
o....x
.
x

My space is a bit weird, one side is 12 feet, the other is 10. Out of the 10x600w i want to use, the 2 will be used with reflectors above 1 plant each, because otherwise plant won't fit.

Room is basically 10x10x10 with 2 extra feet on one side.

Plants are being grown in organic soil mix of mine. Nothing but water and ACT here and then.

I already said too much, time for some pics.

I am beginning with some pics from a recently harvested Malana Bomb Autoflower and a Sin Trabajo which is still flowering.

And finally, the pics from the big girls:

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]IMG_2788.JPG[/FONT] (Notice that C99 has too many pistils, almost like its flowering. Those signs appeared more than one month ago. Am i fucked that it is like that before 12/12? Its like that for over a month now, still it keeps growing).

Would you keep the smaller plants considering 2 more weeks of 18/6?

Looking great!

I would LST the hell out of those bushes to allow light to get the middle.
 
This is what i am gonna do my bro! Lst them and put scrog nets all around them! I am wondering what i am gonna support the scrog nets with! The bamboo sticks i attempt to use do not seem so sturdy.

Ideally - the walls.

But you could just put the net on top and the plants will hold it in its place pretty well but it's more of a headache to manage.
 
Phew, it was a hard day...I entered hardcore mode in lst and supercropping today...I am gonna upload pics tomorrow. I am fucking exhausted.

One more thing. The C99 appears to be flowering for fuck's sake. It has not received more than 6 hours of darkness (and not total darkness) EVER. Wtf is going on? I want to flower in 3 weeks from now. Is it going to hermie?

Still have to think whether i use the scrog nets or not. And i've got lots of other stuff to do too (add more ventilation and more bulbs among the rest). It has become a full time job.
