Now that its cleared up - that this will veg under 2700k light spectrum (or is it 28?) at 20/4. And then it will eventually go into flowering under a 6400k (or is it 65?

Maybe I missed something, but is'nt this ass-backwards? 2700K should be used for flowering and 6400K for vegging.

Yeah. 6500k for Veg, 2700k for flower. FYI the Kelvin on an HPS is 2100k.

oooookie doke!!!! I decided to break out my good nikon p500 and take some flicks for yall... Trying to show yall the sugar coated, purple leaves!!! It's awesome, got some "decent" shots under the 36x zoom and 12.1 mp's! Hope yall enjoy.....

i do have a question though....! When should i transplant and start her on nutes?? I've always been told 3-4 leaf sets...the only thing she gets now is "fox farms big bloom" (which for those who don't know is a 0.01-0.3-0.7 organic fertilizer made from "premium select earthworm castings and bat guano") it has a "guaranteed analysis" and is safe throughout all stages of a plants life. She gets served that every monday (once a week as the directions say), and other than that i may substitute in some "superthrive" every couple mondays. The small "pot" she's in now dries pretty quickly with the "organic seed starting mix", so she usually gets watered about eeeehhhhh..... Every 2-3 days? Nonetheless, just wondering everyone's thoughts on when to transplant and start on "fox farm's grow big"..... Any help is greatly appreciated!

Now on to the pictures!!!!

oh and here are my grow box(s)... The vegging box is the old speaker and the bottom box is homemade by me and is my flowering box!

and here is what my last lst'd plant looked like right before harvest in the flower box, 2 (and some change) cured ounces!

wow, 2 zips? Must be hella dense huh

That's a big quota to meet for yourself, not saying that its impossible especially if u veg for a while like we both plan... But best wishes! That'd be a NICE harvest! I'll def keep tabs tho!

You are correct, my mistake! All I know is I have about a TRUE 350 watts worth of the "blueish" tint cfls for vegging and the "soft white" in my flowering box. Though I do like to use a little of both bulbs in my vegging box, try to give it that FULL spectrum! So far it seems to be working and ate that tiny dose of "FF Grow Big" UP!! PURPLE AS EVER! I'm wondering if they sent me the wrong strain?! Lol... First time with white widow and the sprout is AMAZING looking!

Here it was this morning , she was given the diluted shot of grow big at this time. 6am'ish.... First true leaves seemed to be "yellowing" but I caught it quick! This is my BABY!



And here she is tonight after eating up those ferts, check out the purple under the leaves but the yellow is scary!





See the yellowing? Not bad but enough to make me frown!

Yes, big dence donkey dick buds... They were dried properly (almost TOO dry) but a small orange peel and a mason jar brought back all of the "good" skunky moisture. Smelt like an orange out of a skunks pocket and literally tasted like fruity loops while blown out. It was a GREAT grow, lst ans harvest! I was proud, no seeds, one stem per bud. It was PERFECT! HOPE this one turns out the same!

Hey OP i talked to the dude that went 75dys with df ww and he said he didnt need to go that far he just wanted to see.He said they were done at 65dys.
I would start checking them for cut at 9wks.
Dinafem is now selling seeds from other breeders such as mr.nice serious seeds dna soma and many others.
Check my avatar it's dinafem ww badass buds bro.

Nice! Thanks for the info! Any idea how much yield he got and did he top, fim or LST. OR recommend any of those as well?

That purple is crazy looking, is that something ww does?

That's what I'm SAYING! I have no clue, as this is my first WW ever.... Maybe someone else can chime in that's more familiar with the WW, preferably the Dinafem....

Either way, she's one pretty ass sprout... The only thing is those first set of leaves now, (not the VERY first that come out of the seed) but the next TRUE set.... They're both starting to get a little yellow on me and just a HINT of brown around the edges.

Anyone know what this could be? Time to transplant? Or ready for ferts? Grow Big? She already gets Big Bloom which has .01 N in it! Not very much for a plant that's wanting to vigorously grow!

How big is that container that its in, and the soil did it have nutes in it already, also to give you a heads up like I said my plants are the same day age as yours, and my Fruity Chronic Juice is leaning more to its white widow roots, as if you look, your plant and mines look just alike in the short stubby leaves, so IMO I think you may have nuted to early, Im starting nutes on mine this week.

whats your ph at? the purple and yellow almost make it look like nitrogen phosphorus and magnesium defficient. which could get locked out with a fucked up ph. not saying it is, but the way its colored and the texture of the leaves it could be.

Going in at 6.4 and coming out at like 5!!! I transplanted tho, and added in domolite lime. Hopefully she'll get right now that its in a buffered, bigger pot! Pics to follow later...

OK.... Here's the deal on the plant! I transplanted my baby girl into a 2 1/2 quart pot (I THINK THATS THE SIZE - it looks to be about a little under a half gallon - atleast that's what it looks like to ME! haha). And GUESS WHAT!? I've FINALLY got the PH ON THE RUNOFF RIGHT! I used "granulated dolomite lime" (which was turned into a powdery/SEMI chunky consistenty - using a smooth, strong piece of wood and a damn hammer! Lol!) The reason I left small chunks (and when I say small I mean HALF of a BB from a BB gun) is so the H20 and/or whatever nutes I use can break it down throughout the ENTIRE grow - HOPEFULLY! It def needed a buffer for my OVERLY acidic soil! My soil is about 10% "seed starting mix" (reason being is because it has some micronutrients and such that other things didn't have - organically of course! ), 40% organic perlite and 50% organic peat moss. I mixed the soil up EXTREMELY well, so everything was evenly distributed and then proceeded to do a test of soil PH. It was still in the mid 5's!!! I was kind of pissed but I had a plan and moved on to the transplant...

Everything went pretty smooth, no ripping, touching (wore gloves) and so forth of roots or plant itself (which btw the roots were at a PERFECT length - she was ready for a transplant out of her butter cup! Haha!) She was thrown into her pot and watered down with some SLIGHTLY alkaline water that was raised by HYDRATED lime (VERY VERY LITTLE of it too, that shit is fuckin POWERFUL! JEEZ!)

I wish I had pics so I could share, sorry fellas AND ladies! Anyways, I ran that water over her, checked the PH and I'm dead nuts at about 6.2-6.3! Hopefully this will give it good access to everything I feed it! Cuz those bottom leaves and the DARK, curling down (newer) upper leaves were scaring the shit out of me! As I want Mega, GIANT, properly, organically grown WW buds off my lady!

I guess we'll see what this balanced PH medium does and hopefully it'll stay buffered due to the way I did the medium!

Btw... What EXACTLY is the curling down of the leaves that look like "take my strong hand" (scary movie I believe? Lol) leaves?! And is the darkness a deficiency too? I want this thing RIGHT! Sorry for all the questions but can't find answers that apply to my specific situation! The plant far from looks BAD, but it is worrisome... Should I start It on grow big yet? Or just stick to the big bloom until she's bigger? Tiger Bloom obviously comes DURING flowering, but any ingredients that'll help?

OK OK, no more questions.... Here's some pics, what trips me out is u only see purple/white when the flash is on - if its off it just looks "normal"? U can see a TINT of purple (under the leaves ESPECIALLY) with the naked eye but it REALLY SHINES with the flash! What do y'all think? Looks like a normal WW "sprout" or something is just WRONG?







THAT WAS NO FLASH, HERE'S FLASH!!! SEE THE DIFFERENCE?!







AND HERE SHE IS WITH HER INPUT FAN AND LIGHT SETUP! I KNOW, THE LIGHTS ARE FAR EXCEPT THE 3 UP CLOSE ONES... IT WILL HAVE CFL HANGERS SOON!





NOW THAT I LOOK BACK ON THE PICS, IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE AN N DEFICIENCY AS WELL, I MAY START THIS THING ON A SMALL DOSE OF GROW BIG SOON! SEEMS LIKE ITS LACKING EVERYWHERE IN NUTES AND LIGHT!!! BUT THIS BOX WAS MEANT AS A SEED STARTER BOX, TIME TO HIT THE CARPENTRY ROOM!! LOL

dude chill with the ferts. you're taking your plant to an early grave.

In what way? By the "common" transplant shock?? I dont feed these plants like yall are thinking. It was locked out due to PH, got transplanted into BUFFERED soil and now is THRIVING, AGAIN! It seems tobbe growing great other than the leaves (first set) that got affected (they're yellow, but not even brown anywhere?), EVERY LEAF IS covered in trichomes and if you look up the Dinafem White Widow it has PURPLE, crystal caked leaves on the buds as well as different colors on fan leaves n such ... This plants looking nice and bushy, I'm stoked - exactly what I wanted! I might even just go head n upgrade my box (size, circulation and lighting) for JUST THIS plant! Grab me a 400w hps finally!!!

I've actually got a 35 watt ballast and two bulbs for hid headlights, think I could rig something up with a 12 volt adapter and homemade reflectors?? Possible..... I believe I can flllyyyy! Hahaha.. nah, but I MAY look into something like that using my friend GOOGLE!

Heres some pics my friends... Got hit with organic molasses today!












Looks OK TO ME!

I agree^^^^^ But anyways man the ferts, the mollases for such a small plant, I would feed it plain water for a least a week or 2, she is still healing man but it is your plant so G/L with that thing.

The molasses does nothing to the roots, it makes the soil be able to hold later added micronutrients for LATER use of the roots. When fed again, she has gotten nothing bit h20 and Cal/mag. Ph at 6.1

She is looking healthier, so just keep caring for her the best way you know how.

That's the plan bro, she's looking REAL good but I feel like she could use some more close directed light from my cfls. I plan to rig some hangin ones here in the next few days, she's still thriving but looks about the same, just a cpl more flattened leaves, and more curled ones! No reason to post pics! Everything is super green/purple tho and looking nice!

I do have an experiment I'm going to do tho and that is trim off those two bottom leaves that are yellow and see what happens! If the plant continues to stay green ill know that it was just the previous lockout that killed those PARTICULAR leaves... If yellowing starts to occur on the next leaf set up (or anywhere on the plant for that matter) than ill know for a fact that theirs a deficiency that needs to be dealt with in an organic matter. Nonetheless, I feel like this is a PERFECT test with those being the OLDEST leaf set - if theirs a deficiency then its drawing it from those old fellers down south... If nothing happens than GREAT! ANOTHER PROBLEM SOLVED/LEARNED/EXPERIENCED!

HAPPY GROWING FELLAS! MY AUTO WILL BE DONE IN EXACTLY 7 DAYS! STOOOOKED!!
