well ther you go guys
. girls are gettn icy so cant wait to taste em! so we are about 5 weeks into flower so bout 3-4 more depending on trichs and hair color. and if you wer wondering about my sick one.. she died. R.I.P. but my blk domina is looking good and healthy so thats a plus.


this is my first grow, the flowers are a strain of kush i am unshur of at the moment, clones from a buddy. they are under a 600w hps on tiger bloom for nutes. the little one is my lil trooper black domina is a clone from a dispensary and is under a pretty cheap 23'' t5 for now, and age old grow. probly going to cut a good number of clones from her, she seems to be pretty resiliant.
i had got her along with another and 2 space queens. but in my inexperience i overwatered and over fed.. but this one survived so ya. so its not bad right whats left..
so please leave me some questions comments help props hate whatever its all good here thanks all!

Ok so latest up date i moved my black domina under the hps. and for the next few weeks until harvest of my kush girls the blk domina will have a 12/12 T5 and HPS. i hear this is a pretty common technique so im doin that.

hey bud. site was down and this my first time back. everything looks really healthy. you do overwater though. ease up meng. as for your clone casualties, I assume the same..
overwatering leads to pythium (root rot) or damping off..

right. all deaths have been to blame to root rot, and me. i am working on a happy median between all of what im being told and whats going on in my grow actually. thanks again every one! that being said, with this new set of clones i got i am focusing on not overwatering more than anything else(yeild,potency, etc.)

after a stipping of exsta rock wool(which was pretty damp all around for all 3 clones) then transplanted to FF Oceanforrest soil, and T5 lighting. the girl pictured was actually attacked by mites. so far i have em under control, havent seen any in a day.. so as far as ight,soil, and care i believe we should be ok...

if not then pff help me help my girl! thanks again you guys rock, and if your ever around stop by for a bowl!

Hey man. Good looking stuff! Your soil looks like it could use some more perlite. Are you using 20-50%? Perlite will aid tremendously for your watering schedule. From what I've seen and heard from veteran growers, you want your soil to dry out within about a 5 day period. Then water using distilled (found @ walmart). You said you get root rot, which is most likely because your soil never reaches a dry point before you water again--hence over-watering. But without a sufficient amount of perlite, you can still get root rot simply because the soil doesn't dry quick enough.

As for the mites. Buy some neem oil. http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/store/en/browse/sku_detail.jsp?id=JZ-1010

Use a solution consisting of 5ml neem, 2 liters of water, a few drops of dish soap. This is about 2 liters of solution--so the bottle of neem oil will last you for a LONG time. Spray the soil, plant (hit its undersides), the rim of your pot, and the dish under your pot if you have one. Do it about 2-3 times daily for a few days. I had mites too and they were gone after 2 days. I sprayed for 5. Neem is organic; the solution will NOT have ANY adverse affect on your plant. You can even use it while the plants are flowering, but def try to take care of the problem beforehand.

im not even shur rt now how much Perlite i have, i just use foxfarm ocean forrest straight. and that does make sense cuz i realy dont water often and not that much espesially now. even this one P7090788.jpg i trasplanted saturday and only gave her an Oz.-2 Oz. of water realy small so i know its not to much. the soil does stay wet for a fairly long time even with that 5 days. but then again im still pretty new and trying to find my groove, which i am closing in on i can feel it! haha!
As for the mites, while waiting and looking for info here, i jus finger smashed all those little bastards. im shur their not gone for good, but i havent seen any since the massacre.. but if they are to return i shall use this advice!

My kush girls are lookin great! ill shoot some new pics some time today for you all. the buds are swelling gettn all plump, and maybe 50% of hairs are turning, and the trichs are clustering closer together. still clear mostly but many are turning cloudy. what kinda pic do yall want? full plant, close w/flash, super close no flash, or cola shots?

thanks for the props on my ladies everyone we realy apreciate it!

jus got a emergency blanket from WM for like $3, wrapped it in a lil frame i made n tossed it up righ quick to see how it works and looked. works great btw. guna have to do some adjustments with it and the girls and watch for hot spots. thats roughly half the size of the blanket.

My kush is doing great, im thinking maybe a week n a half to a week =) stay tuned for more pics.

another update for the day is a table. now before you say "table? pff im out" chill check this, the benifits of a siple table are as follows: 10 degrees cooler room temp. plants can be 4" closer to light, +work space, and back support as im not tending to my girls on the ground. ill have pics of the new look tomarrow, and uh some afternoon bud porn.
within the next few days i will have a much beter set up for my girls new blankie as i need supplies and a bit more design thought.
got hotshots little time release poison thing and that shit beter work.
