Grow Number 7

[ninja bud]

I hope this grow will be a lucky one. I have 2 pot of gold, six diesels, two with their heads showing and a couple of white russians. Going to pick out the cream of the crop. I have a few clones secured as a back up if things dont go to plan. Always worth having a back up plan.

 

[COOKIE MONSTER]

Sounds like your on to a winner, should be lots of fun watching them go.
How will you be for temps in the summer?

 

[ninja bud]

Temps in my house in the summer are a nightmare. I still have a few weeks while they veg under the cfl's then its ebay and a cooltube purchase.

 

[COOKIE MONSTER]

Well hows the sprouting going?
Did any of those pot o gold pop up yet..

 

[ninja bud]

Every one has popped their little heads up to say hello. Things are going well, but I wish that Garda helicopter would fuck off and stop getting me paranoid. It was flying around last night about one in the morning and she was flying fairly low.

 

[COOKIE MONSTER]

Ah I'd say they were after some car chase or something, sure your current cfl lights would have 0 heat sig.

Good news they all popped up, you'll be filling that screen to the max in no time.
How long are you gonna let them veg this time?

I think five to six weeks should be a good veg time, especially since the lights are on for 24 hours.
Just have to wait until they sex, All the diesels are fems anyway so hoping some of the other beans are fems for a little variety in this grow.

especially since the lights are on for 24 hours.

don't waste energy man. plants are using a maximum of 20hrs of sun to manage the light phase of photosynthesis. Other 4 are simply for redistribution of sugars through the plants or so

20/4, some may disagree but I'd say non of them would be biologist of any kind

luv everything with the net mate. Good Luck!

Looing good ninja,
Your lights being on 24/7 wont make them grow any quicker,a timmer would save on the juice.
White russian an diesel,nice,looking forward to seeing them grow.
With a healthy veg itll be like a jungle in no time.
All the best with the grow im sure youve learnt alot from your previous cycles,I hope all goes well.
Looking forward to updates.

 

[ninja bud]

Im going on EDs advice, Ive read a couple of his books. Every time I look at his guide to growing weed I always laugh my ass off at bud man.

 

[meltybubble]

They need the darkness,they respirate,etc in the dark period,makes for healthy fast growth.
Pluss its a waste,wether your payin for the juice or not.
Ive read reports about the photo period,if an auto,thats differant,18 hours is enough.
Love to hear what ed say's,loads disagree.
peace.

 

[ninja bud]

Ed says that weed will grow three times faster if given 24/0 light in the first two weeks after sprouting. Ater that the light is reduced to 20/4 for another two weeks and then the cycle is changed to 18/6. So far so good!!!

 

[meltybubble]

Interesting,must look into that one ninja.
On with the show,looking forward to updates!
peace.

update

update

Just an update for anyone thats interested. 25 days into veg. Waiting for sex to show in a week or two I hope. Vegged under 2 35 watt warm light cfls and two 20 watt daylight cfls for a total wattage of 110. As soon as they are sexed the HPS will come out to play and straight into flower.

Looking real healthy ninja b,they'll burst with growth under the hps.
They should show anytime now,fingers crossed for a good amount of females.

 

[ninja bud]

Hps and my cooltube have come out to play. I have 2 pogs and 3 diesels selected and they have been on 12/12 for two weeks now. Shooting up nicely into the screen. Temps are excellent with my new cooltube, excellent piece of kit only 56 euro off the bay. Ill keep updating every couple of weeks.

 

[COOKIE MONSTER]

Looking sweet, Ninja

Couple of weeks and that screen is gonna fill right up, did those timers work out for you?

 

[ninja bud]

Yeah cheers for those timers, still trying to figure out the digital ones, you should have left the instructions. Well happy with the grow so far. Did you ever notice the more grows you do the time seems to speed up or maybe Im just stoned all the time Seems like I only germed them yesterday.

The other two Diesels have found a new home, felt sorry for them. Shame to kill a nice weed. Hows the outdoor grow coming on cookie?

 

[COOKIE MONSTER]

I knew there was something I forgot....just read the serial number and manufacturer brand on the digi timers and google the instructions, you'll have em sorted in 5 mins.

Bit the opposite for me, time wise since I switched to only outdoor growing...everything seems so slow

Grow is ok, bit behind on last years but sure I cant do much about the weather, the first few should start to flower in a few weeks.

 

[ninja bud]

Weather is supposed to pick up I think. Look you will have nice harvest in a couple of months. Next grow Im going to go for the 400watt, should give me a bit more time between grows. Im down to my last jar, but at least its the big one!!!
