Adventures of 9 ladies and a 400w light

First of all Id like thank all the IC members for the motivation, encouragement, pics, and the sharing of knowledge to get me to this point. As title says Im growing under a 400w mh/hps. MH from beginning of veg until the stretch stops during 12/12 in hopes that will keep em a lil more short and bushy. Growing in Scott's potting soil with a lil bit a perlite and lime added to it. For nutes this round im trying the FF line. Grow big for veg, tiger bloon, and big bloom for flowering. Space is a 4ftx4ftx57in wooden cab with a 4in inline fan exhausting into a can 33 carbon filter with 2 computer fans mounted on sides for air circulation. Temps with lights on around 75f, lights out 59f.

I used the paper towel method to germ 5 affie/skunks, 5 chocolate rains, 5 extrema fems, 5 killa kushes, but due to the fact that only 1 extrema actually made it I popped 4 selenes.
Ended up with 3 affie/skunk females, 2 chocolate rains females, 1 killa kush girl, 1 killa kush that hasnt showed yet(pretty sure its a girl so it got the transplant into the 2 gal final flower pot), 1 extrema girl, and only 1 selene lady. I vegged for roughly 5 weeks(until all but one showed preflowers) before switching to 12/12. I vegged 18/6. Today is day 4 of 12/12 .

Looking good. :D

Might want to back off the feed a bit though... dark green is a sign of nitrogen toxicity... not a good thing. Other than that they look great! Keep it up! :D

Stay Safe! :blowbubbles:

Here's the biggest one out of the bunch, a Killa Kush LSTd to try to keep her short. Its also the only one that hasnt shown sex yet.
 
Yup, they do indeed look good, and it looks like a lot of research has been done on your part :good: for that!

Will be keeping a closer look as you move further into flower :)

Today is day #9 of flowering. The last Killa Kush that hadnt sexed yet is a confirmed girl! Pistils are coming in slowly should be ready to start beefing up in a week or two. They really havent stretch much as of yet, I guess maybe that mh is slowing down stretch. I might switch to the 400w hps tomorrow. Ill post up more pics at the beginning of next week. Stay Safe and keep it green people!!!

The girl in the middle front is my Selene. She smells just like lemony zest. I cant stop sniffing her. Sure hope that smell translate into tasty buds soon.

Today is day # 12 of flowering. 7 out of the 9 give been given their first dosage of nutes. The Selene girl and Extrema lady will be hit with a dose of flower nutes the next time they need watering. They are the two smallest plants in the garden and are not as thristy as the others. Gave them 2.5 ml of grow big from FF, 5 ml of tiger bloom FF, and 1 TBS of FF big bloom per gallon of water this morning. Peaked in on them this afternoon and all the ladies appear happy. Flowers coming in quicker on some than others. The Chocolate Rains are probably the furtherest along and both smell dank. The taller one smells a little stronger out of the two. They range in height from 9.5 inches to 14 inches. Extrema is the shortest at 9.5 inches. Chocolate Rain the tallest 14 inches. Affie/Skunks have a earthy smell to them at the moment. Once the buds develope further Ill post some pics.
