G'day guys, iv posted a grow journal before and it went to shit because my plants went to shit.
i have been sorting all my crap out over the past 6months and have finally got shit growing haha.

Setup:
  • 1x 400W Metal Halide
  • 1x Grow Tent (0.90M x 0.50M x 1.6M)
  • 1x Exhaust
  • 1x Intake

Medium:
  • Perlite x Hydroton (Mainly Perlite)

Strain:
  • Unknown - I got a Clone from a friend

Nutrients:
I got custom nutrients from my local hydro shop. (they brew there own)
its just a standard A + B mixture.

Picture of Mother:

(she is having a hard time at the moment because its out growing my tent, so leafs are burnt. i am ripping more clones off it soon and maybe buying a new tent to house it.)

Clones:
clones are about 6weeks old, i fucked up the start of them because i did not feed them nutrients at the right time. so there growth was stumped, once i started adding nutrients thay started to go crazy so its all happening now :)

Pictures of Clones:



General Pictures:

Hope you guys enjoy. i will try update as much as possible.
Any advice is always welcome.

thanks guys!

Hey Guys.

Pulled another 4 clones off the mother and put them into clone box about 2days ago, so there on 24hours with fluro.
waiting for them to root then moving them into main tent.

Clone Box:





I am also starting to run out of space in my tent so im creating a full new drainage system tomorrow, so i can fit more plants in (i want about 6-7).

Design Plan:

Started to new Drip Tray.

Screwed a piece of wood on the under side of the tray.


Then i melted a hole though the bottom side of the tray for a tap


i used a hot plate to heat up copper pipe to make the hole.



need to buy some more materials and it will be finished up.:weed:

Hey Guys, 3/4 Clones shot roots so i transplanted them over.. :)





is anyone able to tell me why the leaves are burning? i thought it was the heat, but i sorted that problem out seems to be a chemical problem now? any ideas? :leaf:

Well originally i thought it was a heat problem but on further inspection it wasn't any problem with heat. it was all doing good then alot of leaves started to die.

i will try get some closer shots of the leaves.

found the problem guys, my Indoor Bible arived in the mail today so i used info from that and a website and came to the conclusion it is lack of potassium (K) so i started to be more precise when measuring chemicals.

anyway i keep you updated :)
