Been trying to look online for some info and treads on DNA Recon but there seems to be nothing out there so her I go...I started with a Recon and a chocolope but diaster struck when I put in the diamond mylar I forgot to adjust the height of the light and they got roasted...Managed to get the recon back to life but unfortunatly chocolope just could not pull thorugh...

So This is Day 9 of flowering and she had roughly 3 weeks of veg( I decided to switch to 12/12 when she was 5" tall)...As the title says she is under a 400w hps and a 6" exhaust fan on a speed controller..She's is been fed Bio Bizz nutes(Grow,Bloom,Top Loader,Heaven and root juice for the first 2 weeks)...Any comments and advice on this magical journey shall be greatly appreciated and I thank you all in advance...Im going to try and upload a video coz im too way baked to be taking photo's...:peace:

I'd move that fan up a bit higher so its blowing between the top of the plant and the lamp and not aimed directly at it. Other than that looking good, been looking at recon myself done a few DNA strains and all been good.

Nice one jimmy just moved it higher and it's doing the job nicely...don't know what I'm going to do when she gets bigger...ya I heard a lot about DNA and the recon buds are suppose to be pretty amazing..abit worried about height have just under 5ft to. The defusser on the light when it's fully raised...I'm experimenting with an airpot seen people get some great results with those pots

What I never heard of doing 12/12 from seed how do the plants react to it, does it effect your yield much??just done some research on the lemon skunk looks fairly sweet some interesting smoke reports..I really can't wait till those buds start forming man the pics of the recon nice and frosty looking..do you have anything going yourself??

12/12 from seed rocks man. Plants react differently than if vegged, they tend not to push out side branches and instead grow one main cola, average yeild for me is 2oz per plant but some growers get more depending on the strain. This style suits me as i like small compact plants, i do 9 under one 600w. Yeah that lemon is sweet mate, best smoke ive had this year and ill have another comming down soon. ATM ive got a 20 plant grow on the go, doing a few different strains all be ready for xmas...yippee. Dont think you can go wrong with any of DNAs gear.

heres a few 12/12 girls from my last grow.

looking good m8! dont think you'll have a problom w/ hight. dont you find bio-bizz nutes hard to handel? they make allot of mess, but they are full organic... if you like it, add some of the alg-A-mic, it will do you good.

@ jimmy
Wow man that's pretty amazing dude Neva seen anything like that before would you ever try auto I done an auto Hindu kush few months back got 52g after 70 days. Only grew 17" tall nice and small very potent..this grow ment to be finished b4 Xmas but the disaster at the start set me back about a week and a half so won't be done until the week after Xmas ah well

@ronshamin
Ya those bio buzz nutes are very messy especially the bio grow gets everywhere but IMO I think there the best available got some great results every time but I think that you have to use the bio heaven to get the full effects that shit is like red bull for plants some serious rapid growth. Never used the alg-a-mix before might look into it

Cheers geezer. Nah mate....no autos for me. Not knocking them, im sure there pretty decent smoke and all but 12/12 from seed is better imo, you can do fem/reg beans of whatever strain you want and still end up with a small compact plant with plenty of bud.

Well man after seeing your results on 12/12 the whole way through I prob won't go near an auto again man those pics are sweet so your talking about maybe 10 weeks to harvest from seed is it??...Checked mine today see's had 4 inch's of growth in the last 3 days pretty crazy growth but love it...Got the fan speed controller set up which is helped out big time...The temps before where between 19-21 degrees C there up now between 23-26 and humity is between 40 and 50% can't complain about that and another plus is the whoosing noise from the ducting is now gone no noise now except for a gentle hum from the oscillating fan...

Really said it to a friend who has 4 seeds a 250w HPS and hardly anytime to do the standard way and he's giving the 12/12 from seed a go so will be interesting to watch his....Ya i think its nute burn, lights are off now and won't come back on till im in work tomorrow will do a small flush tomorrow evening she has perked up big time since i put in the extra bit of water but alot of the leaves show signs of nute burn disaster but thats how you learn...I noticed on the nute schedule i have been using its 1ml/l and i have been using a bio nute minature jug that cme with the nutes and its 100ml i have been giving her well over concentrated nutes.....Panic is over now though lol..

Thats mad my mate is going to give it ago he has 4 seeds and a 250w hps....She's getting better the extra bit of water made the difference she has perked up but some of the leaves do show nute burn...the lights are off now and won't be back on till tomorrow when im in work so will have to wait till tomorrow evening to flush her don't know how im going to go about it with an airpot just need to do it very slowly I reckon...I noticed there on the nutes schedule im using its 1ml/L the minature jug I got with the nute pack is 100ml which is what I have been giving her so its been well concentrated everytime very silly mistake but you can only learn...onwards and upwards(hopefully) :peace:

Could be mate, if it happened after you fed them then for sure you over did it on the nutes. Im hydro so use an ec meter for nutes. One thing ive ive learned is not to pay too much attention to nute doses on the back of the bottles, there often wrong. Start off low and work your way up in strength.

on your grow closet on the bottom I see you have a vent to let fresh air it. I can see it in the photo and light is coming out of it. That also means that light is going in there when the girls are trying to sleep. Put a light blocker on there and let those girls get their beuty sleep
