so me and the THC boys have started our small little grow opp and we ran into some dificulties
Set up:
1000 watt air cooled hps
1 intake fan
2 rotating fans
3x3 (pots) 8 plants total
ocean forest organic soil
general organics nutrients
38-46%/ 71F-77F
Training/ Trimming/ Supercroping
Sea of Green method over whole area
Crimping on center plant
LSTing (every plant)
Topping (every plant)
Genetics:
Pre Bubbha 98 x2
Icey Kush
MTF (Milwakie Kush x Alaskan Thunder Fuck)
Blurple (Blue Dream x Purple Kush)
Green Crack
Super Skunk
Afgooy
Timeline:
started with clones and placed them into 5 gallon buckets with organic soil running 19-5 on/off
let clones grow for about 2 weeks with only water so that they can obsord all the nutes from soil then started running general organics veg line 1-1-1 and 4-3-3 as well as nutes we have been spraying with Spray-N-Grow Micronutrient (Iron and Zinc) about 1-2 times a week and Niem Oil about 1 time a week
about 3 weeks into it we started topping which we did on every plant 4 nodes down on the main stem. all trimming, watering and gardening were done in the morning giving the plant sufficent time to heal during the daylight. about a month into it we used the SOG to help our plants use all avalible sunlight. while trimming away all leaves and stems that formed under the SOG we did very little trimming except on fan leaves that grew to be over 4-5 inchs not including stem. when the plants were about 20inch tall we placed them into flowering which was about 3-4 weeks ago just before christmass. Sence then we have cut out the Spray-N-Grow and only use the Niem Oil 1 every 2 weeks or so. our nutes have also changed to 2-4-4 and 0.5-0.1-1 and we started running Grandmas unsolphated Molases after the first 2 weeks. the plants have started to show trichomes on the fan leaves and white pistels cover all of the bud sites
Questions:
im wondering how long till we could harvest good buds. beacuse do to an altercation at a party we had we are be forced to leave on the 9th of feb. ill post pics of the plants in the order i listed them in the genetics section. im wondering that if switching the lights to 16/8 off/on will help the plants mature faster. i know this will reduce the yeilds but time is a hudge factor right now.
let me know if you have any other questions or if anyone needs help with setup, nutrient lines, types of hydropics or anything to do with growing.
thanks for the help and hopfully this grow wont go to waste =[
