- Thread starter uptosumpn
- Start date
I will on the next feeding along with the Earth Juice catalyst....(rem, I started kinda late per your chart) gave em' just plain bubbled water this morn......
quick ques....as you kno i'm doin af-sog, 4 pots per sf that are 13.5" deep, do you think 16 plants in my 2' x 2' space is overkill for a petty 150hps??? (how much u think is attainable per plant) Oh, I remembered you asked why i'm not using the 150 yet...I answered but you neva answered my ? if it will promote more males this early....oh, think I have 3 males in the works too! 2 PB & 1 fs x pb...

Looking good man, will be watching this one! I say put the HPS up and use those flouros in the corners of the tent.
Looking great so far uts.. if I were you I would get the HPS fired up ASAP..even when using red light I've always got 50% females or better.. I agree with the guy above me..use the hps and if you see any dim areas use the fluros there. A 2x2 space is perfect for a 150 Watt light.. Ifound with my old cab ( 30inches"18 inches ) that the 150 had a hard time covering the edges of the cab..
Cheers be watching for mu update in the next week or so...

Thanks for the input guys, I guess 3 people saying the same thing, (about the HPS) cant be wrong...So up it will go in the morning...(they are on there 4 hour sleep break right now) will be giving em' a good feedind when they wake up. and I see maybe 1 or 2 more males....? hmmm, very interesting....only 4 or 5 males so farr?? Not bad, I guess...
when I put the HPS up, how far away should I place it from tops...(being this is gonna be the first time using the HPS this early).....Oh, and as far as the tubes in the corners...they will be fired up when the streching period begins...thats why they are in there gentlemen...jus gotta go get my other inline fan outta storage and connect to HPS....Onmy last run with this set up, it did get pretty HOT up in there with HPS and floros...90avg. NO MORE OF THAT!
sweet bro, glad to see you getting the HPS in there.
Usually run the 400 watt MH before the HPS, but not always. never see an increase in males bro, Im not sure how that theory started, nor how the test was conducted. I think Dutch Passion did that crap a VERY long time ago, Dont agree with it personally.
Your plants will love you for it!
Cant wait for the next update... how are they liking the AF-OFP???

Hey to all my auto lovers, here is the next pic update.....
Here are all my babies @ day 14-15 for FS x PB & PB....as well as day 8 for my 8 Secret Citrus x Ak47's....I also I have lil side hybrid going of 5 PB x BS all in the same container....(as of today I have 2 males, 1 female, 2 unknown in that pot...so Imma chop 1 of the males and keep the best one....transplant em' together and let nature do it's thing when that time comes....in a separate spot of course...!) I also got 2 SOUrJemz f2's I believe @ day 6 & 3..<see if I get a female and jus include it with the other girls...I NEED 16 of THE HEALTHIEST GIRLS, hence all the seedlings... **anybody knows of what I can use to adjust PH in water/nutes "organically"???? Dont wanna use the chem. based stuff....
I also put up my 150hps earlier today, set @ 20/4....I have the light 24" from the tops....(is that to far??) temps are a steady 80 degrees...
Just fed em' this afternoon with Maxicrop Liquid fish & Earth Juice Catalyst...I feed them every 3.5 days...
Ph is 6.6
Will go pick up some FFOF and FFLW and mix @ a 2 to 1 ratio when time to transplant...w added perlite of course...
Anywayz, first 2 pics are mi 150, 3rd pic is my ghetto bubbler, via a reg. 5gal fish tank air pump<<for now! I gotta go get my two 4" oxy stones and 60L per min air pump outta storage..THEN we will have some SERIOUS O2 action!! Pics 4 & 5 are all the babies...(on the left are the PINKBUDS, in the center are the 8 day old SC x AK's and to the right are the FS x PB...the black pot in the back are my 5 PB x BS seedlings and beside those are the males....6 maybe 7..3 PB & 4 FS x PB) the last pic is a top shot of the 5 PB x BS seedlings....the female is the one to the left..isnt she healthy as phuk!!?? and two to the right are the boyz< gonna leave the biggest male in that pot and .....other one is unknown and the fifth was a late sprouting and is underneath everybody else...if you look to the right, front corner, those 2 cups are my SOURJEMZ f2's......i KNOW THEY ALL COULD BE BIGGER @ THIS POINT, BUT WHATTA YA EXPECT WITH CFL'S AND 22OZ CUPS....All my good shit is in storage still, starter pots, that are 9" deep, 4" HO inline fan for my 150hps, ect ect....gotta go get that stuff ASAP....my storage is 400 miles away....so a road trip is a must this wknd....

No comments on the light distance???? Anywayz, as of today I discovered a couple more males...So I have a total of 5 FS x PB & 5 PB....killed all but the best and earliest to show...so now I have 1 Pinkbud male & 2 fruit salad x Pinkbud males..(jus plucked off most of the immature sacks to stall em' from dropping luv dust to soon) I also discovered 3 PB females & 2 FS x PB females!!! (18 days old) will transplant tomm after I give em' their schd. watering....As far as the PB x BS multi seedlings in that one pot, they were transplanted 2 days ago and it looks like the female is about to start stretching...the other 3 in there are males and 2 were killed, (left 1 in there and plucked his sacs too) The 8 AK x SC are doing great,(11 days old)....temps are a steady 80 degrees, humidity 54%...

Looking great i think 24'' should be fine man.
Is your HPS air cooled mate?
I ran an aircooled shade with 400w in around 2.5x2.5, buds pretty much touch the glass without getting burnt.
I run my adjustawing (600w) with heat spreader around 6" from the tops with no burning.
I always have a circulatory fan blowing between the light and tops though
I always do the test putting the back of my hand below the light to make sure the distance and heat is right.

Nahh mitch...for now its not air cooled...(still havent picked other fan yet) I too run my two 6" fans between the light and tops throughout grow.....I gotta get get that fan hooked up SOON...My pots ar 13'5" deep by the time the plants finish stretching it will be around 30" avg..., light is 7" tall, tent is 42" tall that leaves maybe 5" of wiggle room....sooooo my point is, with a fan attached to my 150 will that 5" from tops be cool??? <<pun intended...lol!
