Alright!

We painted the buckets last night pitch black. Started the Airstones soaking.


Today we took the top off of the box until we could cut large enough holes to fit the cheap but durable chain we bought at lowes(48cents/ft).

We took the mylar off the walls until we could get some better quality stuff up there. we hung the lights on a shower rod put up in the closet with the chain and attched it to inexpencive zip ties that we also got at lowes(3$/20pk) and so we have (8) 150w(42) 2700K CFLs and (2)100w(26) 2700K CFLs on two light strips.

We have IONIC big bloom nutes at 1/4 strength.

We filled the netpots up halfway with the hydroton then put the plants in and then filled up the rest of the way. Then We ran the pH balenced water over them to get everything nice a moist( maybe a 1/4 gal on each netpot full.

we have the water in the buckets coming up about 1-1&1/4 inch up on the netpots so it can kinda act as a wick system.

I also started 12/12 lighting tonight.


Any Comments/Suggestions are VERY welcome!

Now For PICS! Enjoy!! bongsmilieOh and a Funny one of my dog,LOL! Thats where she likes to sit hahah!

Everything looks reallyy great so far!!
but one Q.. what spectrum are those lights, they look way to white leaning more towards 6500K.
When your in flower since you are, you want to have 2600K Spectrum Cfl's its way better for flower...
You are gonna want a red'er light so its the correct spec for 12/12!!
Peaceee

Hell ya! And ya I noticed the sprout was growing a bit slow, But then again my last grow wasint an Indica breed.

And I cant either JONN! Thanks for stopping by!


For CG's question, Yes they are 2700K They say so on the box : ) Thanks for checking though. I had made the mistake of getting the wrong ones at the first of my last grow : )

Cant wait until the babies wake up this morning! I need to make sure their not dead! lol! If they look like their not getting enough water, Ill go ahead and just manually pour a little water over them everyday until the roots hit the water.

Ill update yall later on today on how their doing!

Oh and also L2B are you growing certain strain or bagseed again?

Also I have a ? for everyone! I bought femmed seeds so these white rhinos will be females. but the seeds that they put off, will they be femmed or just a higher chance of being female?

no seeds if there's no males...

and if you do fertilize the females with male pollen, they have an elevated risk of having hermaphroditic DNA, but, I've yet to have a problem. I've had plants go hermie, grow those seeds out, and the offspring was just female. So yeah...

Yeah if theres no males to pollenate the female buds than there will be noo seeds...
Why do you think people including yourself chop down the males?
i would prefer getting non-femmed seeds than just getting a shit load of dank seeds on one grow than the grows in the future ill chop males when i spot them...never buy dank seeds again

Ahh I see now, after a bit of research online. You can smoke the leaves around the male pollen balls. But its nothing compaired to buds.

I dont like the seeds but I also dont like the idea of having to order seeds everytime I want to do a grow....I wish I could just take cuttings before harvest but Id have to get them back into a veg state then restart flowering for them to grow..

I guess Ill just have to order the seeds before every grow, Because I dont have the space to find males. : /

why not just take do an 18/6 light cycle for awhile and then take clones before putting your plants into flower. That way you can keep your strain going as long as you want. And you don't ever need seeds.
