600w buddha sister grow log

These, Buddha Sister, clones were purchased from Compassionate Caregiver club in Santa Barbara, CA. In the pictures the plants are in fourth week vegging, although growth was stunted due to need of purchasing the parts for grow space. For about 2 weeks, growth was very slow. Light is 600w hps with air cooled reflector, connected to 6" fan on hood. --Grow tray is a 2'x4'-- We are feeding them sensi grow and pirahna through a drip-system. We started with 12 (legal limit) 4 died so now we are down to 8. I plan on vegging up to another two weeks due to stunted growth until about 18" and slightly more bushy. We are open to all comments and criticism to help with our grow. These are being grown legally in CA for a cancer patient.

--Pictures will be up with next post-- ^_^

I have noticed a lot of spots on leaves (all plants except 2). It looked like Mg def. from the FAQ. I added 1/4 tsp per gallon of epson salt. Shoud this fix the problem??? Also how can I boost calcium in my water??? Should I invest in CALMag???

Also one plant looks like a lot of new growth is more yellow than the rest. How can I fix this? I can get pics if needed--will be posted--. Thanks all!!

Also if I flower at 18 inches how tall will they finish at??? I have limited height in my room. The tallest plants are 15 inches and the shortest one is 12. Should I chop the tops off from the big ones, to let the small gurls catch up?

topping them off is entirely up to you.. if you want them all the same size, then prune the bigger ones back and have the other's catch up...

or you could bend and tie the taller ones over a bit to get the same height, or take some clones to make up for the 4 you lost.

I think that Soma the breeder of the strain would suggest bending the tops of your tallest plants over instead of cutting them with scissors.

Spider mites in the house!!! The yellow spots on the leaves were indeed spider mites. I sprayed them with neem oil (1 tsp per quart). Only once so far. Can you guys give me some tips on how to get rid of them for good. I don't want them coming back during flower. What is the HotPepperWax talked about in the GrowFAQ? Does neem oil kill eggs--spider mites, etc.? If not how do I get rid of eggs?? Thanks all!

Here are some photos of first day flowering after 36hr of darkness......

here's the second set of pics.

Here are some pictures of our plants after using some Bed Lice Spray. It was a suggestion to exterminate the mite eggs. They are still in their first week of flowering--3 days--. Wish us luck!!! ^_^

Clones in the so cal area are usually 10-20 bux. they are about 3-4 inches tall. LA area are usually bout 20 bux, further you go north the cheaper they are. I paid 15 ea for these. Sometimes you will see em for 10. Like un named ones or weak looking babies.

I have also seen like already vegged plants for like 1 or 1 fifty. Just flower em. Its nice to have plants that you know are going to be female and that are great genetics. They carry alot of Soma seed strains at the caregivers that I go to. A lot of places don't do the whole clone thing which is a shame. There is a lot of basic stuff when you see clones, like white widow, hindu kush, and big bud. LA clubs seem to like DJ Short strains.

wow i really live in the wrong part of the world, dont get me wrong i love the whole process from seed to bud but sometimes easy is nice as well.

Today I also started using Big Bud and Sweet Leaf from Advanced Nutrients. Any one had good results with either of these two?

Today, we purchased a HydroHut--4x4. Also pictures will be available soon. First we need to purchase a flange (the store told us it came with the unit but it was included) fucken eh!!! Does anybody know if I can get a flange at a hardware store, or do i have to go back to the hydro store?? Thanks all....
