400w,starting @ 24 days flowering

[GD44]

Hello everyone.

This is my first grow. I'm gonna be showing you my 400 watt, 4x4 tent. I'll try and keep this going. I'm about 25, almost 26 days flowering at this point. Nice little tops starting to fill out,really starting to see sugar leaves and all that fun stuff.

I started with 10 plants.

5 Nirvana's White Rhino

1 Reserva Privada's Kandy Kush

1 Reserve Privada's OG 18

1 Shining Silver Haze

2 Nirvana's White Widow

WR #5 broke in half one day while training.. just bent a little too much lol. The two white widows are also gone. I thought they may have been males so I chopped em. I think it was justbe being paranoid though. So now I'm left with 4 White Rhino's,Kandy Kush,OG 18,and Shining Silver Haze.

The white rhino's are short and stocky nice little bushy plants. 1 of them suffered from a low pH I fed them when I first fed with nutrients and didn't have any pH up or down. Its just now getting back on track.

The OG 18 stretched to literally as far as it could have before it topped out.

The Kandy Kush seems like its going to be a longer flowerer.

The shining silver haze has 3 tops like bars on a cell phone haha. Its also the most resinous out of all of them. WR #2 is in a close second place.

Its PICTURE TIIIIME! :hello:

These first 3 were around day 22 or so I think. These just show the setup.

WR top

The WR that got fucked up due to low pH of around 4 (don't do that lol). Its finally coming back around but it took probably 10 ish days.

WR top around day 22 or 23

OG 18 top

The Shining Silver Haze (3 tops

fuzzy little WR

Heres the WR runt. It has to sit on a box to even be near an even canopy. It suffered from the low pH too.

How am I looking for day 24 flower. Most of the pictures were taken on day 24. Imma try and keep this updated through harvest so yea . I'm aiming for 1 oz per plant hopefully. Ide like 2 but who wouldn't lol.

look how tall the OG is

nice to see a first time grow in pots big enough to grow some buds in A+ 1st grow, I mean you had pH problems you fixed that. you made some attempt to keep canopy even, I woulda tied to tall ones over some more but hey...
welcome to the club, you have the patience to grow it looks like. congrats.
when they look done to you go 2 more weeks

now your duct work could use some improvement, next grow maybe you'll get a 6" filter that would clean things up. always can use the 4" for veg or something. either way nice 1st grow.

 

[GD44]

Hey thanks. I think I will do that. I kinda went for the cheap 4 incher.. I'm pretty excited to watch all this happen for the first time. As far as buds reaching maturity and all that. Its really amazing. I'm going to appreciate it so much

I need an oscillating fan around 8 inches.. That little clip on 6" htg fan just isn't cutting it.

Nice looking setup. Get ready for some fat buds! Im also using a 400watt cool-tube setup. What CFM is your inline fan? GOOD LUCK ON YOUR 1ST GROW

I'm ready!! haha. Its 170 cfm, but I have 2, 6 inch duct fans at both ends of the light blowing over the light.. My exhaust at the top of the tent blows out a pretty good stream of air.

Pretty big update here as far as pictures.. Today, Friday is week 5 flowering. I'll be feeding them twice between now and week 7. So 2 more feedings over 2 weeks. Then I'll start 1-2 week long flush. I figure this is a good time to start. Hopefully my timing is pretty good.

My sativa's (kandy kush,shining silver haze,og 18) are drinking a lot more water than my rhino's. I fed the sativa's 2 tsp of tiger bloom,and a tbl of big bloom.. I think thats what they are called anyway. Its the week 5 flowering feeding on the fox farm feeding schedule. Also on the pictures now, if I can remember what plants they are, I'll put text in the picture so its just a lot easier on you guys.

20ish pictures, go!

(crazy bud structure,literally spears )

I'm finding some seeds in the front left of my tent. My OG is the prime suspect as of this point. Its in the front left of the tent.. and I found the most seeds on it. The only other seeds I found were off the plants right next to the OG. I just haven't seen a nanner. I chopped every cola that had some seeds forming..

Found out that watering in the bathtub is really nice compared to the old way... lol

I took some pictures this afternoon.. Started with my shining silver haze,then OG18,kandy kush,and only a few of WR #4 (the one that took the ph problems the hardest)Its actually putting on a lot of weight now)).

Here goes 30 or so pictures.

Shining Silver Haze.. Friday will be week 6,or day 42 I guess.

[shroomyshroom]

thanks man

Hey I appreciate it.. I probably read up for about a serious year before starting. Reading doesn't touch actually doing it though. I've learned a lot. . I love these forums and its community

So my OG 18 is officially a herm at this point.. and is pollinating my white rhino's and ssh...

I'm finding some seeds in the front left of my tent.

I've been there. If you find beans in your grow room, be careful not to move your plants around too much. That way you won't spread more pollen to other plants.

I wouldn't remove the whole cola if ya see beans. I've found that you can pick off most of the seeds as they emerge. There is a chance that you will have a few seeds in your stash after harvest. Your final product will still be OK even with a few seeds.

 

[GD44]

I was thinking.. I might just use these seeds for next run.. save money and ill get to see some interesting pheno's with white rhino x og 18

 

[Each1Teach1]

If you got a dank pheno (which it looks like you do) OG 18 is re-fukn-diculous. Love R.P.'s strains especially the Sour Kush (Headband). 400w too. Amazing my friend. Simply amazing.

 

[GD44]

The kandy kush I'm running seems to be the most potent just by looks. Lowest yielder. The OG hermed on me.. So I'm kinda hesitant on getting their seeds again. I mean the nirvana's seem to be more impressive as far as yield goes. We'll see when I get to smoke

 

[GD44]

Day 43 picture update.. Took pics without taking them out of the tent.

 

[focaskater]

these photos are beautiful!
