13 Auto Flowers: 5 Berry, 4 Widow, 4 LowRyder

Oi, welcome to my grow. I've been growing dope with various levels of success for about a year now. Last month, I redid the garden a little bit and got rid of the grow tent. It was just too hot in there in the upstairs of my house. I am going start growing Lemon Haze as my next plants but until then I am going to do 1 or 2 auto grows.

Seeds: 15 pack from seeds-nl: 5 Berry, 5 White Widow and 5 Low Ryder. Planted them on 5/1/2011. 2 of my seeds did not make it.

Garden: Botanicare 2x4 Ebb/flow tray. Plants were sprouted in 1" cubes, moved into 3" cubes for better roots and after 10 days put into an 8" netpot filled with hydroton.

Lights: 400w MH for veg growth, will keep it on them until noticable pre-flowers are showing. 650w Hortilux for flowering. 18-6 is the current schedule, lights off from 2-8pm

Food: Botanicare Grow / Sweet. Will use power-bloom/sweet/hydroplex for flowering. 3 floods/day for 15 minutes at a time.

First pics: The plants @ 1 week and one plant I've named Selkies to focus on for the grow.

The plants are doing well. I started them on their grow blend of food, doing 1/2 strength (7.5 ml/gallon) at a PPM of 1000 (my water is 350, ouch!) I feed 3 times/day for 15 minutes at a time.

Temps are running between 70 at lights off, to 82 during peak hours. The halide is a hot fucker.

Humidity at 55% using 2 humidifiers in conjunction with 4 room fans placed around the room.

PPm has been pretty constant so they seem to be drinking more than eating. Ph/PPm checked daily.

Week 2 Pics, Selkies is looking good.

Changed out the tank and flushed with Bontanicare flush, 10ml/gallon for 45 minutes.

Cranked up the food 15ml/gallon running at 1400PPm

Not much else, they look great and the temps/humidity in the room are just where they need to be.

Week 3 pics:

looking good, would like to see how they all turn out.
good luck
