Wait with the open sesame. In about a week, add 1/4 strength grow big - 1 tsp/gal (or other veg nute). I would give those another month before starting any flowering supplements.

yea i agree with raoul wait with the open sesame, dont even give it the open sesame until you are ready to put it into flowering, find another fert that has some more nitrogen for veg.

Already getting 2 tsp per gallon of Grow Big now.These things really took off when I started useing 2tsp. Just going by the Fox Farm grow chart. I'm gomma wait till 6 weeks to put them on 12/12.

Hey freebuzz

To me, it looks like your soil may be a little barky/chunky, which makes for bad root growth......Whenever you do your next transplant, try to get a soil thats a little bit more light, and has 20-30% of perlite....

Hope this helped and Good Luck with your grow buddy!!

Don't laugh...... 8) T8 bulbs, 32w each & Daddy Pete's Planting soil 0.5-0.5-0.5.. Actually, the soil has very good drainage & isn'y as chunky down low as it looks on top. Putting 1/3 cup of water per day on them. Temp varies between 25%C & 28%C with the humidity between 60% & 72%. Also I didn't know you could host pics on here, most other web sites make you use a seperate host. Getting a 400w HPS this weekend. I'm still looking for a low priced,good quality digital one so I can use both bulbs on the next grow(Hydro)

Hey freebuzz,

Great start you have there! I have (9) NL X Early Misty at day 34 in veg. My comfort zone is FoxFarm Ferts so here goes:

raoul/inNOut - Yep, wait 6 weeks, so what is it for you, another 22 days if calculating correctly?
At that time add the:
Open Sesame 5-45-19 - Still has a little nitrogen which is nice at this point in the girls' life. This stuff helps transition from veg. to flower.

When I see bud formation I use:
Beastie Bloomz 0-50-30 - Helps with internal density - for 2 weeks.
Cha Ching 9-50-10 - Creates robust oils/resins/flavor - remaining weeks of flower with a straight PH'd water flush approximately 2 weeks prior to chop. I also add a tsp. of blackstrap per gallon of water (both in veg/flower).... make your girls frost up real nice!

Lights:
I have (2) 400 HPS Hortilux Eye - Takes me through the entire life cycle due to the bulb having the additional blue spectrum. Very efficient and easy on the utility bill. I have a 4x4x5 space, giving me 50 watts per sq. ft.

Good luck!

freebuzz maybe with your medium lightly watering daily is fine,it seems to be working good.I can see you're not in regular idividual containers but I've always found it best to water until 100% saturation all the way through,then not watering again until the plant uses all the liquid usually 4 or 5 days.Keep doing what you're doing however,for that setup it seems like the way.When in individual containers though consider the other way,I learned this long ago and its for real.Learn the wet and dry weights of those containers too,runoff doesnt guarantee total saturation which is what you want to achieve

Actually they are in 6x6 square pots, 1 plant per pot.The humidity can get kinda low in that closet & hot. I water & the next day the soil is like ....."new soil" moist or a little dryer... u get me?? But I usually get run off with 1/3 to 1/2 cup water. I have added a fan & a humidifier to control the temp & humidity. I just started the 4th week thursday. They're getting 2.5 tsp of Grow Big & 1 tsp per gallon of Carbo Blast. They have been getting the Carbo Blast since the second week of veg & will run it till the last week of flowering. I was going to wait till the 6th week to start the Open Sesme(last week of veg).I'll have to post some more pics Sunday. These things have literally doubled in size. Some of the leafs are starting to hang over the edge of the pots. I am wondering if I need to move up a pot size for the last two weeks of Veg? Being new to growing, the rate these things are growing lately, just simply amazes me. I also just bought this light off E-Bay. Did I do good I thought the price was right, so I got it(not the one I bought,but same thing from same place) http://cgi.ebay.com/400-W-HPS-GROW-...ryZ42225QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

One more thing... When will I sex the plants? Before or after going to 12/12?

 

[momb0]

I know nothing to back it up but as I say most of BC bud is the same and theer is good weed in canada with genetics as well as USA

 

[Guest]

Normally at 3-5 weeks veg with a good magnifying glass I can sex 90% during veg,theres always going to be that 10% that just wont preflower until you switch photoperiods
