400 Watt Switchable grow... needs help!

[Navigator330]

Poker toker... one thing i forgot to mention about coco is always rinse your medium before you mix and plant it.... coco especially cheap coco can have a high content. I use B'cuzz coco and mix in 2 TBSP of mexican bat guano per gallon of soil..... 25% approx perlite and a small % of peat moss. I always add Hygrozyme to the inital soil batch to increase microbes and benificial bacteria.... of course i just was told the other day the using hydrogen perioxide kills these which i never though of! so i stopped using the h2o2

Hello everyone pics update today.....

I have hammered out my nute problems and the flush seems to be helping out...... plants are not at all growing upwards they have stalled. I stopped using tri flex all together and will begin using Fox Farm Organics

Grow Big
Tiger Bloom

and botanicare Liquid Karma as my supplement.

just got my 400 watt CMH going and man what a difference. Get it you won't be dissappointed at all. I use PBP GRO and and BLoom with LK and Grandmas with great success. I do aerate the mix overnight before using. Definitely makes a big difference as well over just mixing and pouring it on them right away.

What's up with the ceramic in the Ceramic metal halide light? Does it cool down better? Can they be bought in the US?

1st of the month update.............

10 days into sexing, lookking real good. Nitrogen Burn is slowly receeding. The plants are a nice lime green color, rather than a super dark green and burnt look. Watered last night and checked my clones. They have begun to show nubs of rooting at day 7. I switched my LST to a different angle...LST is doing amazing things, it is my first time and i am impressed.

Plus... My EYE Hortilux Super HPS Bulb is really awesome, it is keeping the plants so compact and the nodes are so close. Great Ratios to get a nice big COLA and many side buds!!!

Seni Star from Sensi Seeds (F1) is the best looking of the crop. The pheno type is sativa looking and it looks like a big yielder!

BBCheese x BlueBerry is also doing well with big indica leaves!

My Indica cross is doing better than ever before also.

Harvest will be good!

I have culled only 1 Male so far out of 20 plants so i hope to only have a few.



This is the Sensi Star about 5 days ago.... will take pics of current soon.

Thanks Indica- 420

I havent been updating this at all lately, I decided with the problems that i had i would just use this room as an experimental grow. I cloned my Sensi mothers (20 clones) and have started a seperate VEG area. 30 days into flower, the original plants are looking pretty good all things considered. Took a nug today, at 30 days + to test out.

Next grow will be coming soon in the Grow Diary section.

OG Kush (Rez's 91' Pheno)
HashBerry (Mandala)
White Satin (Mandala)
Sensi Star
&
Blue Apollo (joey weed)


thanks everyone who tuned in and those that helped, here and the innfirmary... you know who you are!!!
