White widow stealth grow

[Jgray766]

Ok I'm gonna go ahead and post my grow Bc when I started every bit of info I could find helped me. First off I ordered a Kush Kab from Uniquehydroponics.com and it's 3 ft tall and about a foot wide and a half a foot deep. My reservoir is only about 1/2 gallon. I recieved my seeds on the 11th from marijuanaseedshop.com and soaked them over night and then I placed them in their rapid rooters and into the Net pots they went. White widow fem and ak47 fem. I added plain water until I saw second nodes of leaves at which point I added about a half a teaspoon of GH flora gro and Hydrogaurd. I checked my ph and after a week and a few days this is what I have...

I fimmed my white widow today...hope I did it right Bc I felt sad when I did it...

 

[chuckie86]

They look healthy to me bro good job I been wanting to Try hydro myself I got the net the pump and the clay pellets just unsure if I want to mess up a plant lol well good luck

 

[Jgray766]

Thanks man! Yeah it's Definately worth it...I'm a total beginner and I'm still trying to figure things out but I'm researching as I go and so far so good. These babies are resiliant! I use GH flora trio and everyday I see new growth...it is def worth it just gotta stay home a lot to keep an eye on them lol!!! I keep the ph in line and have my ppm meter on the way...gonna switch to flower soon...if u do get started start a thread so I can watch hehe!

Hey Man U doing clone or seed?

 

[chuckie86]

I grow from seed I never tried clones maybe down the road I might I could try it I do got a bunch of plants I could take a few cuts from n see if it works but maybe I'll try it next grow I just flip to 12-12 fee days ago and I got 3 flowering 2 almost done

 

[Jgray766]

Man those ladies are looking great!! What kind? Is that a sativa too? It looks like u have it down bro with the soil! I wish I had more room Bc I know I won't be able to get much yield from mine but I live in a 2 room apartment...but I'll be happy with 1.5 oz a piece...damn ur plants look so healthy and happy. It is easier for me to do seed too it's what I prefer clones seem to be a little more difficult....how long did u veg those babies for? I checked my ww and she hasn't started repairing herself yet but I'm sure maybe I'll see a change in the am..that's the thing about hydro is the veg growth speed is insane! I'm at 2 weeks from seed today...oh and did u fim or lst?

 

[Jgray766]

I decided to do some lst on my WW...she seems comfortable as my string isn't smothering any of her new growths...still waiting to see some results from the fim I did. If anyone sees anything I can do different feel free to add. I had to use what I had on hand but will get the black tape out asap...

 

[Jgray766]

Ok looks like the fim did SOMETHING lol but not sure what...I'm enjoying this hobby. I'm gonna flip to flower by Friday...I have to keep her and my AK on the same wavelength....

 

[Jgray766]

Well my fim didn't work lol
But I'm ok with that. I added flora micro grow Bc I saw a little deficiency and then I added some flora bloom and now I'm one day into flower. Had to tie the girls down...I need a lot more light Bc I only have 3 2700k 13 watt cfls and I know it won't be enough...but here they are about 3 weeks

Nice girls. Where did you get your seeds?
I was thinking of procuring some widow, and found the truth.
Black Widow is the real white widow apparently. The one from olden times... I almost pulled the trigger, then I read a little bit. Cool story.

 

[Jgray766]

Yes i read that story too lol
But it was after I had already gotten this last shipment. Thank u for the compliment too! It's my first grow....I got the seeds at marijuanaseedshop.com and my first order didn't ever make it...but they reshipped within in a few days and I had them within 9 days. The WW is on sale 10 fem for like $55 bucks and the ak47 females 10 seeds for free so I got a good deal. They popped in a day and within 2 days has sprouted (rapid rooters were used)....but yeah this is so amazing I love it!

You can keep those cfls a lot closer. I've done it 3" away the whole time and gotten good dense bud.
Keep the pics coming!

 

[Jgray766]

I was considering moving them down but they have already grown up closer...the growth speed is amazing...and I surely will! Thanks for the replies any info helps!!

Looking good, I'll be watching. I love stealth cfl grows because that's how I started.

 

[Jgray766]

Thanks!!! If you guys see anything I'm doing y'all can let me know lol...I'm picking up some more cfls in a few days so I can get a better yield...and yes this is the best hobby I have ever had...so many different things u can try...

 

[GardenGnome83]

Consider a small hps if you're going to grab more bulbs. Once I got around 200 watts with cfls, I switched to a 150 watt hps. The difference is huge, and they're a lot cheaper now I think.

 

[Jgray766]

It won't be too hot inside of my box?

 

[Jgray766]

I will have to check that out thanks for the info!

You might want to back off on the nutes a little. See that burn around the edges? Those plants are too young to be getting that.
