1st Grow, 10g Tubs, Bagseed

[JustaGuy420]

Nice yeah I'm definetely hittin up some gorilla glue. Thanks gr8fuluds. There still growing strong except for one he might be falling behind. I can't wait either lolraymond. Also I remember the wattage of my bulbs its 100w soft white 2700k bulbs, with the cover over them as well.

I'm currently using the soft white 100watters for flowering. I used the bright whites for veg. What are planning to do for flowering?

 

[JustaGuy420]

It's a straight 12/12 from seed grow. No Veg stage.

 

[lolraymond]

Now that I think about it, maybe I should be going 12/12 instead of 18/6. I didn't think of the height of the plant too much. : / I wonder how my babies are doing. My friend took the box to sprout some seeds and separate his clones from the more mature plants so he can sex them. I haven't had my box in over a week! I miss it. Hope your plants are doing well, Justa

 

[JustaGuy420]

lolraymond that couple of weeks shouldnt hurt though. I was even thinking of doing that but I just wanted to try 12/12 for my first grow to keep it simple. Yours will probably start out stronger than mine too. Hope you get your's back soon, can't wait to see the pics.

 

[lolraymond]

Heckkkkkk yes. Should be today, or tomorrow, that I get the box back. STOKKEEDD! I'll post pictures, FIRST THING.

i've broken so many CFLs...i've dropped them, kicked them, sat on them and ran into them and i don't look like the trashcanman from The Stand

 

[lolraymond]

lol, good thing, Happyguy! hahah. I've broken quite a few too, and I'm still breathing.

 

[lolraymond]

Oh, by the way, Justaguy. My friend had the idea to put duct tape over the weather stripping. Stick it to the outside of the tub, over the stripping, and back onto the inside of the tub. It works way good. Believe it or not, the duct tape is smooth enough, and the foam underneath it is squishy enough, that it creates a pretty good seal. I'll try to get some pictures. It's a little less complicated than I had described. Hahaha. Good growin'!

Now when watering these bad boys the bigger they get the more I'll have to right? I've just been hittin them every five days with some tap water that is ph'd to 6 and puttin in a tsp of nutes to 1 L.

 

[sFish]

The best way to water, is by the 'Lift the Pot' method..Get to know the weight of the pots when they are watered/dry, and water according to when the plants are dry...I bet your tap water is fine(I use mine also)..but something I always do is let the jug sit out for a night/day before I use it, to evaporate any chlorine from the water.

 

[lolraymond]

Good idea sFish. Never even though of that.

 

[NHMI]

Hahahaha thanks for the laugh guys...just sweep up the lightbulb and throw it away...I break em often cuz I throw my lights in attics for mold jobs but they aren't a big deal...though I would love a pic of someone in a hazmat suit picking up a lightbulb...lol

 

[JustaGuy420]

Then there were 3. Well one just died off and shriveled up but the other 3 are pluggin on strong. Just keeping my watering going and hoping for the best right now.

 

[lolraymond]

Oh shit! Them little buggers are still growing well. I'm sure they will turn out. I was lucky to find a clone, I can't grow shit from seeds, yet anyhow. Haha. Looks good Guy.

 

[sFish]

Not looking too bad at all, sorry to hear about the defect plant, better out than in though

Just wondering, do you plan on switching over to different pots?..(Read through the first post again)To keep them shorter, you could implement LST..Also, after the next set of nodes comes in, you may want to consider using the nutrients(big bloom?) that you have..**Remember! Use 1/4 strength of what the manufacturer says.**After that you can slowly increase the dose

The Rubbermaid Revolution! Got some 13 gal tubs kickin' upstairs myself. How much do you guys plan on pullin' out of these smaller tubs and this wattage?

Lovin the tubs/grow. Keep up the good work, m'friend!

Sickkk! haha. I'm hoping to get at least 10 grams per plant. Not too sure about it though, being my first grow and everything.

What's goin' on with your plants Justaguy?!

 

[JustaGuy420]

Bad news! Left for 3 days my dumbass roomate forgot to water them. The leaves were drooping but still green. So gave them some water and hoping for the best. They were dry and crispy so hopefully he didn't kill them. Ill get some pics when the lights come on tomorrow.

 

[lolraymond]

Eeefffffffffffffffffffff! That blows man! I'm sure they will turn around. This morning I woke up and ran to my box, like I do every morning, and then I noticed my strong, about month old clones were HELLA droopy! I was about to cry. I felt the dirt, and realized that I hadn't watered them for a long ass time! Hahaha. I'm such a noob.

STAY UP, PLAYA!
