Watch them grow

[Rabbitt-420]

Ok these are my 3 seedlings that i currently have growing in my closet.
They are 20 days old and all 3 are bagseeds from the same bag.
They are in a preferted soil and have not gotten any nutes yet.
Im only running a 70 hps light on them until i can get ahold of the cash for a 400 watt hps.
I will be using hps the whole way.
Maybe by next grow i can upgrade to a mh for veg and the hps for flowering but only money can tell.

If you have any questions and im sure you will feel free to ask and i will answer when i get a chance.

Hey. Consider browsing the outside/security lighting section of HomeDepot or Lowes. Closet grow, 150watt HPS security lamp. Cost...under $100.00.

Just something to consider.

Watch em grow!!!

I got my 70 watter from Lowes for 65 bucks.
I plan on getting a 400 for 100 bucks plus 10 bucks or so shipping from InsideSun.com.
Lowes has a 150 watt hps for 80 bucks that i was looking into getting but id rather have the 400 for only 30 bucks more.

Watch them grow !

did you top that one at like the first node? or did it just grow 2 heads? They are getting fert burned from the pre ferted soil. They don't look too bad but if they progressively get worse you may have to get some soil with no ferts or less ferts.

insidesun has cheap lights but their shipping takes a while. So if your in a rush i'd order asap.

No i havent topped any of them.
I prefer to do lst to topping.
I know they are burnt from the soil but im hoping that it wont continue and will get better as the plants use more nutes from it.
As far as InsideSun goes im not in a big hurry to get the light.
I dont mind waiting an extra week for a good deal.

I got this yesterday along with the package my sees should have been in.
I think the sender needs to change the package or the technique.

Was that a SD shipment or someone else?

Sucks your beans got nabbed.

That one self topped plant looks killer. I had a BOG LSD do that and it grew two killer main stalks.

[Rabbitt-420]

No the seeds were sent to me for donating to a site.
I have to send the letter to him along with a new address in order to get new beans.

Ill be taking some new pics later on today for you all to see how a few days can change the look of a plant.

The self topped one has started to grow uneven.
Each side was even until today when one of them has started to grow taller then its twin.

 

[Rabbitt-420]

2 Days later and look at the new growth just taking off.

The first 2 pics are of Mandi my second largest plant.

The next 2 are of Medusa the 2 headed plant.

The next 2 are of Sara my biggest plant as of right now.

And last is a group shot of them under the hps.
I transplanted them into bigger cups today along with the non ferted soil.
Next trasnplant they will go into there final pots unless i feel the need to place them into bigger pots during flowering or right before they go into flowering in 4 weeks.
That will give them close to 7-8 weeks in veg stage.
Over the next few days ill be watching for burning of the tops seeing as how they are now about 6 inches from the bulb.
Im going to have to get another small fan to put in there because the one i have isnt pushing around enough air to get those stems bigger and once they produce more leaves it will need more airflow.

Any questions feel free to ask.


Watch them grow!

Im hoping to get some genetics for my next grow seeing as how my first 2 have been from bagseeds.
I feel once i get some genetics ill be motivated to get a bigger light for better growing limits.

time to practice cloning!

time to practice cloning!

Hey Rabbitt, Those young-uns look really nice. Here is my 2 cents. You said that these are from bagseed, and that you were planning to order some genetics right? Well right now would be a great time to start honing your cloning skills. That is what I did. I cut the hell out of some bagseed plants, and killed my fair share of clones, until I found a system that works for me. Nothing elaborate, just rockwool cubes, Olivia's gel, and a humidity dome, and I haven't lost a clone since. No sense cutting up your good gene's until you are sure that the clones are gonna take. good luck with the self topper, medusa is a good name for it! peAce pacT

 

[Rabbitt-420]

Actually Pact i just went out last night and picked up some rooting hormone and 2 things of peat seed starters.
90 cents for 25 things plus the dome i couldnt pass it up.

Im tryna figure out when the best time to clone is.
I dont think i can start cutting them now they are so small.
I think ill have to give it at least another 2 weeks before ill cut them.
Once i do cut them i want to flower the clones to see what the sexes are of the plants i cloned from in order to save time.
I figure while i wait for my genes to get here ill have some fun tryna get a small sog going in the closet under 70 watts of hps.
Ha this is going to be an adventure.
I think i have enough flouro to keep a mom alive while i chop her down and keep cloning from her.
Im sure ill kill more then half of my clones the first few tries.

Enough babbling its time to go check on the babies.

Watch them grow!

Ill be updating my log here in a few minutes.
Im also adding different pics to my gallery that i wont be posting in the update post.

 

[friendlyfriend]

very nice!~!

IMHO give em a month before you comence the massacre of limbs as i like to call it......

 

[Rabbitt-420]

Ok i have just finished adding close to 20 pics to my gallery for everyone to enjoy.
Ill share a few with you here and you can journey to the blackhole of my gallery for the rest.

I must apologize for posting my pics on the post instead of making to enlarge them.
And im also sorry to the dial up users or slow connection people out there who lag like crazy on my log.

 

[Rabbitt-420]

Updates for everyone!

Updates for everyone!

I have now fed all 3 of my plants.
I feed Medusa the 2 header 4 days ago Mandi 2 days ago and Sara today.
The first 2 really seemed to like the ferts and it shows in new growth and color.

 

[Rabbitt-420]

Well yesterday was a fun day for my plants.
First they got moved into there new homes in which i believe they will live out there days in.
After that i was looking at themand figured i would start some good old lst on 2 of them.
I dont think ill train medusa because she is growing pretty nifty all by herself.
A few more days and i think ill be able to take a few clones from them.
Im going to be vegging for another 3 weeks then ill throw them into flowering.
I just hope i have enough room for them after 7 veg weeks and then flowering.
ill just have to keep them tied down and keep on top of it while they are stretching.

I thought I would post my two cents about your lighting situation. Do not use Insidesun, look at their feedback, they have a bad rep, I tried to get a light from him thru e-bay, paid with paypal and a month of going back and forth, "How did you pay, and whats your address again". Finally I said screw it, filed a complaint with paypal and he had my money back to me the next day. Wonder why he couldnt get the light here that fast Anyway, I ended up buying a 400w hps that came with a 400w mh conversion bulb on e-bay for $125. If you have time to shop for a while, surf e-bay, heres the linkhttp://home.listings.ebay.com/Garde...mZR4QQsacategoryZ42225QQsocmdZListingItemList hope this helps. By the way, your kids look great

 

[Satans pal]

Sorry the link doesnt work. If you go to e-bay, goto the home and garden section then pick grow lights SP
