On a Wing and a Prayer! SLH and 600w.

Well here I go again!
This will be my 5th, er, maybe 6th, grow.(Damn CRS! LOL!)
My last grow was fem AK48 from Nirvana, turned out pretty good. I switched my soil and ferts to FoxFarm and finally had a descent finish. I did the AK cuz its what I grew for my first grow attempt and it survived all my nooby screw-ups. LOL! So now that I think I got at least kind of a clue on how to do this so I'm gonna try some better genetics, I hope.

This run were goin' with GHS feminized Super Lemon Haze, hopin' all the hype is true cuz' I'm wantin' some stanky budz! Hehehe.. Just droped 9 seeds into SOLO cups filled with FoxFarm Ocean Forest sittin' under a 2ft 4 bulb T5 light. Seeds were soaked for 48hrs in distilled water, 8 of the 9 had started to poke out their lil' tails and the ninth one was lookin' like it was about to so off we go again.
:jump: WOOHOOOO!!!!
(Oh, sorry bout' that. hehehe.....)

So anyway, heres the set up and game plan.
Grow area is a 5'x10' sealed up walk-in closet, I'm using a 3'x5' area at one end as my garden. The plants will use a 3x3 to 3x4 area under the 600. Ventilation is Carbon filter > sealed light > 6" exh fan > out thru ceiling into attic. Walls wrapped in mylar, pots are 5" off the floor using plastic soda crates, 14" oscillating fan for air movement. Temps are pretty steady, 67-70 at night, 75-78 lights on. Soil is FoxFarm Ocean Forest. Newts are FoxFarm Grow Big, Big Bloom, and Tiger Bloom. Anyone got any suggestions on any other additives I might use with these? I am stickin' with the FoxFarm stuff though.
Veg.
Girls stay under the T5 for about two weeks or so till they get there first few leaves. Question, how soon is to soon to put them under the 600mh? Planning on vedging for 3-5 weeks under the 600. I'll re-pot them from the cups to 1.5gal pots in about 2-3 weeks, (too soon? to late? opinions?).
I've done 18/6hrs for veg my last few runs but thinkin' bout' doin' 24hrs strait thru this time, opinions?
Flower.
Transplant into 5gal buckets, 48hrs in the dark then go 12/12 and let em' eat! WOOOOO!

So thats my plan, off we go on a Wing and a Prayer!
This will be my grow thread, I'll post up pics as soon as I got something to take a pic of, LOL, so pull up a chair, spark up a fatty and lets see what happens. Any and all opinions, thoughts, suggestions, pointers, hints and general good vibes will be greatly appreciated.

Peace.
 
WOOOHOOOOO! :jump: I got sprouts!

Just got home from work, went to check on my girls and I got 7 lil' sprouts popin' their heads up, two more and we got nine lil' ladys!

If anyone has run GH Fem Super Lemon Haze in FoxFarm OF and has any pointers or insight I'd surely appreciate it.

I should be able to post up a couple pics in a few day once they get there first few leaves.
GAME ON!!

Peace.

Rut Row Raggy! Change in plans.
See, this is what happens when I read too much IC! LOL! I'm goin' VERT! :dance013:

Been doin' lots of reading in the vert section over the last few days and I think I can pull it off. The whole concept just makes good since. Got a good idea for layout, ditch the hood, move my charcoal filter over the center of grow, (easy), and add a sec 400 or 600.
I only got one small problem, seems like this layout would work best with five or six girls and I got 9 lil' ladys' bout' a week old started, hmmmmm......., what to do, what to do. (Hell of a prob to have, "I got too many plants!" LOL!) Wonder how long I could keep 2 or 3 SLH under a four bulb 2' T5 for?

This might be the begining of some big fun! Stay tuned. :wave:

We got pics!!!!

We got pics!!!!

Well here we are, PICS!













11 days from sprouting, I'm thinkin' there lookin' good.
They just went under the 600 tonight so the light is up about 3.5-4 foot, gonna lower it about 6-8 inches a day, does that sound good?
Not sure how I'm gonna work this, I got all nine looking strong but I'm wanting to do a dounut with my 600 but I think nine plants would be too many. Agree or no? I might put three of them back under the T5 and let them slow grow while I flower the other six then put the other three, after a three month veg, under the 600.
Ugggggggggh! I need help! Any suggestions?
 
:dance013:

Tryin' to figure out how to post bigger pics, any suggestions?
