Hi everyone.
if you haven't guessed, first time grower. i have some beautiful lady clones only a few weeks old.
I have previously read enough about the grow process to write a wiki page but this is my first hands on experience.
a friend of my did the honor of picking out the clones and decided to get three different strains..... to my annoyance.
two GDP, two Tahoe Thunder, and one cookies. the GDP and thunders are going easy as expected, the cookies not so much.
however i am working with what i have trying to provide the correct environment for three different strains at once.
also on a huge budget and building as i go, luckily just got a job so soon i can filter much more money into converting my whole walk-in closet, which is 3ft 4in deep, by 4ft 6in wide, and just over 8ft high. should make for a decent grow space.
right now they are in 6x6 cubes. the cookies had some nute burn right off the bat because i didn't realize not to give nutes to plants under 5 nodes. so i cut it off and also haven't watered it for a few days as it was also showing signs of over-watering. the cubes hold water for so long that its kind of tough to determine when to feed, but the cube is still moist and she seems to be coming back ok with the tip burn residing and new healthy leaves coming in. no more signs of over watering either. the thunder and GDP plants are getting some slight tip curling, it was worse before and then i made sure the fan was hitting them indirectly and raised my 300w CFL. the curling went away for the most part but is still there a little on most of them. not too out of the norm i think, maybe they are needing a little extra water? other than that, the GDP and Thunder are responding well to the nutes i think, fed every other day or so since the block retain so much water. but they do still have mild to no yellowing on the tips. i think this is relatively normal as long as its not excessive right?
humidity is usually a steady 35%-29% and temp is usually a steady 75. also have a home made Co2 generator in there during the 18 hour light cycle. seems to be working well. cant wait till i can invest in my shopping list of materials for the closet conversion.
im totally new to this site although familiar with it in general, so anyone that would like to chat it up and school me a little please feel free.
once the whole closet is finished im hoping to just have a continuous crop cycle but likely only one strain at a time haha or at least strains that enjoy the same relative environment.
peace guys
