"Micro" 400w armoir

[rollinmachine]

the cuts look like they are starting to root... but need to get a better fan for the exaust in the flower area before they go in there.
#2 that was flowering the cut is still throwin pistils and the plant it was taken from has started throwin some as she recoverd from the axe.
#3 the cut started throwin pistils in the cloner
#4 is the only 1 that dosent have clear signs of sex
#5 has also started throwin pistils in the cloner.

mother chamber temps= 71-76f(71 when light off for 4hr)76 with lights on.
current flower area temps=71-74(depending ambient with lights off) 90++ with the light on(i just shut the light off when it hits 90 in there....)

 

[rollinmachine]

guess its time for an update. upgraded my exaust. temps hit a max of 89f while i was tinkering with the fans tryin to get circulation and addiquite cooling of the light making sure im not just circulating the hot air n exausting the cool fresh air. not sure if i got it right yet as its about 7 deg. above ambient. but if im suckin cold air into the box from outside i can get the temps down under ambient or close to it.

the flower chamber:

the 3 "mother" plants(#3/4/5):

the clones:

auto flower:

auto's clone frostin up:

cut from #4(smells like some "og diesel" im smokin on):

any comments sugestions are welcome. hopefully everything goes good n i can get back to producing smoke for myself.

thanks guys. so far i got 2 auto flowers #2 and #5. both look similiar to eachother wich makes me think its out of the same bag. 2 started flowerin faster then 5 but both started full flower under 24 hours of light. both are under the 400w 12/12 now. the cut off #4 that was put under 12/12 is showin balls. so sence im down to 1 "mother" i started germinating some of the beans from my last run under the cfls. 1 cracked in less then 24hours already.
also my timer isnt really set to 12/12... its more like 11.5 on/12.5 off.

#3 is my last hope at the time being for a non auto female. 3 cuts from #3 will be put into 12/12 as soon as they are big enough.

have a nice day! n thanks for ur time. pics will come when the rest are put into the dwc sometime within the week.

flower update!

flower update!

well its been a while sence i last updated with some pics. pics are from the 28th after i put the 2 cuts from #3 in the bucket on the right. dates on the pics are correct for my sake. #2 looks nasty she is the 1 in the orange pot. #5 is in a 2 litre bottle airpot. i got the cuts in the bucket on the left mixed up too. from the looks of the leaves. the far left cut looks to be a cut off #5 and the cut to the right in the bucket on the left looks like a cut from shity lookin #2.

on to the pics...
Group shot


#2 and #5


left bucket(cuts off #2 and #5)

thanks everyone and happy holidaze! more pics to come this weekend as they look to be taking off and fatening up.

 

[rollinmachine]

let it snow!!but first...lol.

Nice Looking buds. Love to see these kind of micro grows.

 

[rollinmachine]

thanks 300. you had a beautiful armoir grow going im curious why u quit using it??
also pics 5-8 are the best looking buds i had grow out of soil by far. they are of the same plant#5 in a 2l airpot next to the fan in pic 1-2. the other times i used soil they looked worse then #2 (pic 3/orange pot in pic 1-2) so im pretty happy with the results so far on those 2 just because they are still alive...lol.

i have 3 different strains in flower. 2 of them started to flower under 20/4 light (#2 & #5). im going to try to reveg #5 and see if its really an auto just because she is lookin good and getting frosty already. also her cut exploded in the dwc(left bucket left plant) she has 15+ tops that i counted earlier today.

#3 looks to be a more sativa leaning strain long thin sharp leaf blades with purple stems and leaf veins in the more developed parts new growth is nice n green. any one with an idea of what strain this could be? only name i had to go with a few of the seeds was cherry kush. i just dont know what a cherry kush plants characteristics look like...lol.
also #4 the male is still alive after a few weeks of tourture testing. it will not die. chopped all growth and roots down to barely anything, no food sence i sexed and found out it was male. theres about 12 tops on him now from all that along with the new roots tryin to find water. btw #3(the mother) and #4(the male) are in a dead res. (no air pump) style of a hempy i decided to try. basicly a cup of dirt inside a bigger cup to hold the water...lol.

i am also going to have to get an air cooled hood for the 400 before spring/summer to keep the temps stable as it gets hot in there when the ambients up. big temp swings if i dont pay attention to the ambient. 70 with lights off but can get up to 88-89 with the lights on(let it go 5 hours at 89 just to see if it will still go up and it didnt). if im payin attention i can keep it between 74-80 with lights on.

more pics soon. anybody that wants to throw some names of the strains they think i have are more then welcome to do so...lol. thankyou.

oh yea #2. the auto in the orange pot has a very strong berry smell. too bad it looks the way it does.
#5 has a funky skunk dirty sock smell.
#3 has a slight fruity earthy scent but she really hasnt started flowerin yet.

 

[AlexTrebek]

Awesome grow and updates!

 

[rollinmachine]

thanks alex , im tryin here...lol.

im goin to have to look around the auto forum to find out about #2. i dont know much of anything about autos but she makes me think i shoulda made some seeds. she has 1 of the best and strongest berry smells I have ever smelled and is covered in trics. even the orange crush i had, had a nice berry/citrus scent but has nothing on this young lady.

#3's clone in the right bucket is starting to blow up too with the strech after i cropped the top at the screen tryin to get it to fill up a bit more. hopefully shes more indica in terms of flowering time but as long as shes a decent smoke i wont mind the long flower time if she does take on the sativa traits.

more pics to come in the next few days. ill try to get some individual pics of the plants too for some close ups. thanks everyone thats looking.

 

[rollinmachine]

#2 is 12 weeks from seed. 84 days.strong BlueBerry smelling auto-flower.was topped and top was cloned. ill snap a few pics of her. i have no clue on how much longer she has to go. if anyone has any info it would be greatly appreciated. ill try to get some close ups of the trics too.

 

[rollinmachine]

whats ur thoughts??? @12 weeks/84 days from seed.

 

[rollinmachine]

sence im throwin pics up. ill throw 1 up of the only mother thats left in the mother/clone chamber in my modified hempy...lol
.

also heres a pic of the male that just refuses to give up theres a 1/4 inch gap between the dirt and cup from not being watered in a few weeks. it also shows what im talking about with the modified hempy.

lol... stuborn ass plant. was stinky as a mofo too when i had it under 12/12 to sex, only reason he hasnt got the axe yet.

still lookin for input on #2 in the previous post. thank you im goin to hit the bong again now...

 

[rollinmachine]

1/9 update pic...

im gona chop #2 soon she looks ready. still have a cut off her in the left bucket. right bucket is exploding with growth after i cropped the top. they are all lookin good for me forgetting to clean the buckets out before i filled them up... oops...lol. looks like pickle juice dont hurt the ladies so i guess im lucky.

 

[all4theluvofit]

whats ur thoughts??? @12 weeks/84 days from seed.

Looks nice and frosty! Maybe some longer veg, = bigger plants = bigger buds!

 

[rollinmachine]

lol thats an auto that shouldnt of been topped... also she didnt take when i transplanted her to the bigger pot. roots were all brown n nasty looking so she has been chopped. kinda the reason y i like dwc so much. dwc cloner to a net pot in a dwc bucket theres really no room for error when transplanting. on the bright side of that lady her clone is in the right hole in the left bucket in the flower chamber and is lookin good like a little pine tree. im gona be vegging some cuts off #3 from the time they root till i have room in 1 of the buckets so that will be a few weeks...lol

thanks all4theluv im hopin she tastes as good as she smells. and makes me wish i never chopped her when i seen her start flowering in the mother chamber

 

[all4theluvofit]

I was actually wondering if it was an auto flower after I posted. Well keep up the good work! Till next time

thanks bud . the clone off her is looking fantastic so i guess it kinda makes up for my mistake of chopping up an auto flower.

i have another seedling started too and hopefully another 2 that are going to sprout so i can try to find a few nice mothers. shooting for a nice tasty smoke with the potency to match... yeah im dreaming big with bagseeds. want a sativa/indica with a shortened flower time retaining the sativa effects. and like 2 or 3 more indica leaning strains with some different flavors. all within like 4 weeks for them to finish 2 weeks would be better...lol. i have about 100 seeds to go threw so hopefully theres a few gems in there.
