Boulderrr Grow Journal - First Grow

[boulderrr]

Thanks guys! One of my daylight CFLs burned out so I'm using 1 daylight and 1 soft white CFL right now. I'm switching to flowering any day now so I'll switch them both to soft white when I do that.

There is a fan constantly blowing on the plants during "daylight" hours. The stems look pretty strong in real life.

What's up boulderr. Good to see more CO people in here! Looking good so far. I would recommend upgrading to HPS for that closet when you move to flower. There is no comparison. Even on a small (70-150w) will turn out twice the yield or more. Anyway. I will subsc and see how it turns out. Good luck. Stay Rocky Mountain High!

I love boulder.... actually spent a lot of my life there. I'm happy to see more CO growers on this site.

They are lookin good! Have any of them shown sex yet? Hope they can be harvested before your trip or you have a buddy that can take care of them for ya.

Good luck! & Bring on the powder!

DAY 23
​

The 12/12 cycle begins today. Hoping for at least one female! ​

Day 27​

The plants are in day 5 of 12/12. I can't tell what sex they are yet. I added nutrients for the first time three days ago. I used 100% of the recommended concentration of Fox Farms Big Bloom and about 75% of the recommended concentration of Fox Farms Tiger Bloom. I'm using the Fox Farms feeding schedule and am going by the recommendations at week 5 since I just started flowering. I watered again today but with no nutrients. The smaller plant was planted a few days later and was originally in a plastic cup. I transplanted it last week. Lots of pictures today!​

DAY 30
Day 6 of 12/12
​

Still can't tell their sex but they're lookin good. Watered with nutrients today and used 1/1 recommended concentration of Big Bloom, and about 2/3 recommended concentration each of Tiger Bloom and Grow Big. Before today, my plants had never gotten any nutrients with high nitrogen. Decided it'd be beneficial to give them some Grow Big with the feeding today.

Every night, I close a blackout shade inside the closet so that no light gets through the cracks of the door... so hopefully it's pitch black in there!
