Hmmm where should I start... This is my second 'official' grow but my first grow is still in progress. I have 3 other ladies about 5 1/2 weeks
old, they have been under 12/12 for about a week but they are already getting SUPER tall and stretchy. Maybe it's the strain or the summer
heat but I'm afraid they might out-grow my closet space They are almost 3ft tall and if they double in size by harvest time I'll have to take
drastic measures (don't ask lol).
My first mistake was not doing enough research on the Pure Power Plant strain before buying beans, apperently I'm not the only one who
experienced major stretch with them. My second mistake was vegging them for a month under HPS which only made them taller. Next time I will
start my grow in the fall/winter so the temps don't get so high, and I'll stop being cheap and use MH for veg. I'm not giving up yet but I don't
expect much from them. But all hope is not lost because I'm starting a new grow
I started with 5 feminized Master Kush seeds from nirvana that I purchased the same time as the PPP about 2 months ago. I was saving them for
my next op, until a good friend here on RIU (I won't mention his name unless he wants me to) was kind enough to drive to my side of town and
trade a few of them for a rooted Durban Poison clone! I planted the clone in soil as soon as I got it and stuck it under the HPS with the rest
of my plants. I had 2 MK beans left so I said what the hell and germinated them too
I've done some reading and 12/12 from clone/seed seems like my best bet since I only have a 250watt HPS, and I don't want to disturb the light
cycle of my other plants. Well, let me know what you think! I'll take some new pics as soon as the seeds root and sprout soil. Feel free to post
comments, any advice will be +appreciated!
