I moved them into 1gal grow bags for a little more root space before they go into bigger buckets permanently.

and no, I havent tried any of these strains. Im excited to see them all! I just want a nice full, hassle free harvest..

Longg weekend, broke my phone/camera, a bowl my mom bought (sentimental), and lost gram when i was drunk..

other than thatt.. my girls are looking well. Everyones stayin short and starting to fill out their inner leaves. Brainstorm is the tallest and Vanilla Kush is still the smallest (bushiness).. Ive noticed that shes not quite filling out as much as the others, and i have no idea why. As for the others, WhiteWidow is spilling out new growth everywhere.. its very healthy plant, as is Cinderella 99. The ultimate looks as though it may have slowed down.

I started using those FloraNova nutes on 2/17 and fed them two or three times so far.. with a light reg watering in between.

When I do water/feed, I like to use no more than a 16oz cup filled 3/4 of the way when the soil is completely dry. I let the roots stretch for every last bit of water before giving them more.

I should be getting a new phone soon for the picture updates..

also, I feel like the plants lean closer to the 125w cfl then they do reach for the 400w.. almost as though the 400w isnt as strong. Could something be wrong with my bulb? I noticed a few black specs inside the white part of the MH bulb, but im not sure if its affecting its ability to function properly.. mainly because its still hott as fuck and it looks bright, then again, I have nothing to compare it to.

Bad things to look for in the bulb are: After using it a few times you notice "Black" spots on the inner arc tube, that would be a bad bulb that might need to be replaced. Letting a bulb run hot continuously causes the outer lens of the bulb to discolor which does not let light through. The power going out when the light was supposed to be on. The bulb Re-Firing when the bulb is still hot. These all will drastically shorten the life of the bulb, causing the inner arc tube to prematurely turn black which does not let the needed light spectrum through.


I guess I found my answer.. looks like I need a new bulb, and wasted 2 weeks of veg with a shitty one!

sounds good, glad to have you

But to be honest, VK is really dissapointing me right now. I bet she doesnt like the higher temps i'm unfortunately dealing with at the moment, but she isnt showing much potential for only being able to vegg another two weeks maximum! maybe she'll work a miracle in flower.. bc i need her to bush the fuck out a little more for my scrog.

Im thinking about just scrogging the 4 bigger ones and just flowering vanilla kush normally, we'll see..

Group shots- Veg @ Day 20

Bad news:
Since im afraid my bulb isnt working to its fullest ability, Im goin to buy a new MH for $35 at the hydro store.

Good news:
I can extend my veg time!! since my time restrictions loosened up. This should make a huugee difference in yield.

Now, like i said Im going to replace that bulb today or tomorrow.. and in a few days I will be transplanting them into 5gal buckets with ocean forest soil, and adding a box fan for better circulation.

White widow is already beginning to smell really nice haha, and its only 20 days!! better get this tent enclosed before it stinks up my place!
