First grow in 4'x4' 600 watt tent

[BarrySanders]

This is my first grow. The seeds are a mix of Herijuana, Jackberry, Anesthesia, NYC Diesel, and bagseed. I do not know which are which, and they are not feminized. I am using an LC mix that contains pro-mix, worm castings, dolomite lime, and perlite. They sprouted 37 days ago. I burnt the plants with light earlier in the grow, but they look like they have recovered. I am using the LST method in 3 gallon buckets. They have been fed once with molasses and worm castings. I am in the process of deciding whether to switch to full strength veg feeding with 5-1-1 fish emulsion and Neptune's Harvest 0-0-1 Seaweed. This is the original thread I started in the new growers forum: https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=218668 It has older pics of the plants. Here are the current pictures:

do it! =)

 

[BarrySanders]

I will. Thanks for the help Tater. I wouldn't have known the lights caused the burn without your help. I thought I could go full 600 watts on them. I ended up turning the ballast down to 50% and then up to 75% when they got bigger. Even after doing alot of reading, I hadn't realized how easy it is to burn plants with too much light. I also learned that my ducting had too many sharp turns that kept my fan from keeping the canopy temperature down.

best of luck to you! nyc diesel is a good strain IMO.

 

[BarrySanders]

Thanks coonword! I look forward to trying it.

glad to see someone else running ******s genetics. im knee deep in a killingfields grow and they are all but one as purple as barney. ive always wanted to get some anesthesia. hopefully you have smooth sailing from here on out. for my first grow i ran some of nirvanas genetics and i did pretty good.

 

[BlueberryNutz]

god i hate how they bleep his name like he is taboo around here lol. its sad really

 

[BarrySanders]

I love this site, and I think it has more quality information for growers than any other. That being said, my research led me to believe that the genetics of he who shall not be named are the best value going. I don't know the story behind why his name is bleeped, but his strains get nothing but great reviews. Anyhow, I'll be sure to check out your Killing Fields and would be happy to see what you think of it when you finish up.

 

[TaterMcnuggys]

hey dude im the worst with seeds dont worry atleast you had em under light i just popped 15 beans that i kinda forgot about for a day they popped in the dark and stretched out on me =)

 

[BlueberryNutz]

dont get me wrong, i love this site too. opengrow is cool but its rather slow at times and there's a lot more info on here. i think he is bleeped because he doesnt sell through any distributers here and isnt a sponsor. i understand. its a business and we gotta keep the sponsors happy. maybe one day he wont be bleeped here and then we can show off his goods lol

im here...lets get some updates!

 

[BarrySanders]

Ask and ye shall receive. As you will see there are some problems. Feel free to comment on them. I'm about to give them their first full strength veg feeding. The canopy temperature hasn't gotten over 78 for the last week or so. Prior to that, I had let it get up to 83 or so and I believe that caused some of the earlier light burn problems. Any help is appreciated.

 

[TaterMcnuggys]

what i would do...take off bad leaves feed em if problem continues then you got a problem just what i would do tho. it kinda looks like they just want some food

 

[BarrySanders]

Yea, I'm hoping that will do the trick. I've read that there's no reason to remove leaves though because the plant will use them up as energy. Is there any truth to that?

 

[TaterMcnuggys]

well ya they make energy but were not in it for the leaves are we? =) but dont take all them off lol. i usually take off any ugly shit or big ass leave and the ones with purp stems wich are usually bigger again just what i do... hope it can help

you're gonna love that jackberry..... heri is ok..... awhile ago i had 3 packs of kf, jb, and heri each....... gave kf away... ran jb each pack of jb ( at diff times ) atleast 4 purp phenos each time.... always found keeper... heri i didnt like so much.......still have packs of her stored for a rainy day... don't think i'll run heri again tho...


Blueberry Nutz, i'm with you on the whole censoring the name thing.... San use to be over here at ic awhile ago..... i believe he was banned for advertising her gear, and store on the forums... or something like that to lazy to find the thread.... good guy, good genectics, lovely prices........

 

[BarrySanders]

This is the latest. It's a few plants short because the camera ran out of batteries:

 

[budman678]

i am new too so i cant give much advice, i hope whatever you have going on is resolved soon

 

[Chong_Irie]

The Nycd is solid... I got one running outdoors here in Socal.

 

[BarrySanders]

Thanks for the wishes budman! Also, I have been wanting to try some NYCD for a while now, Chong. Glad to hear you like it.
I think they're coming along well now. I have sexed 7 females, so I'm pretty excited.
