First Indoor grow Heavy Indica

[Yota]

Hey guys, this is my first indoor set up with a hood and ballast, (tried before with cfl and not really successful b/c or light placement). But I'm currently on my way of harvesting my outdoor which I've been doing for a couple years and decided to take a couple cuts and go inside with one of my plants I had outdoor that is coming out really good. It has real dark broad indica leaves and perfect structure.

Ill put some picks of it up, its about 6 feet tall and 5 feet wide. No manicuring or super stocking.

So right now I have 6 of these indica cuts in ocean forest under a 400mh, the reason some of the pics are orange is i had a mh bulb burn out and ran my hps for a couple day till i got a new one.

Most of my plants were about 3 weeks into flower when they were cut from the mother and were on 18 and 6 for a while and then switched to 24 to help try and get them out of flower. How come the are going kind of funny and have no structure? And how long should i be running them 24?

The pics are in order of this.
First is the mother i had outdoor at about 3 months, like 3 weeks before i took cuts.
Second is the mother at about 6 months. pretty recent picture.
Third is a picture of the cuts in the soil at about 2 1/2 weeks.
Fourth is a couple hours before the third, a close up of the abnormal growth.

Just interested on some other peoples suggestions on my situation...
I have the 6 indica plants under a 400 watt eiko mh. My intentions are to mother them. Right now their in like 1 gallon pots and i just bought 3 gal bags and a bag of happy frog. I'm planning to transferring them into the bags. Someone recommended that i mix what i have left of my ocean forest and the happy frog. I have about a little less than half of the ocean forest and a brand new bag of the happy frog. And plan to use grow big for a veg nute.

Should i just run the happy frog straight and start using nutes sooner or will the ocean forest act as a veg nute in the happy frog for longer?

hey yota. unless your plants are yellowing i wouldnt feed um right after you transplant. that foxfarms has goood enough food for them for a while..
least my plants seem to think so...
i usualy only feed 1-3 times in veg befor flower.. i go pretty lite on the nutes..

good luck with everything

 

[Yota]

Oh no, im not going to be nuteing them right after i transplant. I know it has plenty of food.

I was wondering if I put the ocean forest in with the happy frog, will make it so i dont need to use nutes for even longer because i was told happy fog doesn't contain AS much food for them, not that is doesn't have food but just not was much.

Thank for lookin out thought.

Nice looking re-veg cuttings there.

Lol thanks..... there finally coming out. I can see the full leafs coming out in the new growths. Hope they do alright.

Been looking at the bonsai mums thread and liking it lol. Maybe try it with one.

Okay so I transferred 5 of the 6 into 3 gallon bags, I didn't do one because it didn't want to come out b/c it was still a little to moist. so ill try tomorrow. I gave it more water cause i felt a few roots break when i was trying to pull it out of the pot. So i mixed 3 up in just happy frog. And just 2 in Ocean forest.

How do you think everything will turn out? Will there be a difference in the two? Just a little experience that i figure cant really go wrong. lol

Hopefully it won't....

P.S. Do you think my light is to close? It doesnt feel very hot, maaaybe a little warm....

I think all of them will do well and it will be hard to notice a difference. The happy frog will probably suck up water a bit more.

I personally would move the light up a little bit but if they're not showing signs of heat-stress then you should be A-OK!

Best of luck ill be watching!
