First grow (400w), Taking all and any Suggestions

[ellio187]

DAY 17, How much taller do you guys think they will get?

 

[ellio187]

SO I know its a difficult question to answer with variables like genetics, temp, humidity, ect.... BUT that being said this is my first HPS grow and I do not know how much larger my buds will get.

My question is is your opinions how large with they get? Any estimates on yield? (Doubtful tho on that)

HERE is a picture of day 17 flower, I have put in three indicators of plant size to give a better estimate of my current progress.

Marker 1 Is Total height to light from the first leaf which happens to be in line with my PVC fencing.
Marker 1= 18 inches

Marker 2 is the total distance from average cola height to light.
Marker 2 = 5-6 inches

Marker 3 is the distance from first leave height to cola top (estimated)
Marker 3 = 12-13

I will lastly say that the plants are about 29 inches tall atm, besides the ak X hawaiian which is on the left and is solid indica
and is more like 22



THANKS for all the advice ppl have been giving me! Its a fucking amazing site to get info from.



P.S this pwns
Had to post this.

I just finished my first 400 watt grow with a LST.
Just a suggestion I would stop defoliating and go to the under brush and just very lightly lolipop them.
Other than that great lookin grow.

DAY 25





I Noticed about 15 Fungus gnats today on my purps plant bucket so i began treating all plants with fly papers and a initial watering with peroxide, I am also going to start mosquito dunks which I will let dissolve for 24 hours 1/4 dunk per gallon.

Any other tips are gladly taken!
