Unfortunately my only contestant - feminized ChemdogDD x AK47 - hasn't sprouted:badday: Probably the seed was to old. I don't have any more feminized seeds so I guess I won't be taking part in this contest, but I';m sure I'll be checking your progress:tiphat:

Too bad Lob, that sounds like it would have been some great pot, DDXAK47, I can't see how that could lose. Did you ever grow any of those out before? Here are 6 Sour Nevilles I flowered about 5 days ago.Since these plants grow soo big I figured I'd flower some out early and some later...the HPS pics are whats in flower and the other is some still in the veg room and growing faster by the day.Some will be thrown into bigger pots as per usual but I should have 5 or 6 females running in cups...

Maybe a new rule, if you are kicking everyone's ass you can only update on Sundays. Just to keep from discouraging us amateurs :D

Just kidding guys, looking great up in here. Mine are almost alone in veg so the light is height appropriate now and they are spreading out more.

Looking good everyone. I need to stop neglecting mines & get it some real light. Its currently to the side of some mothers trying to share the light. Need to get some new T5 bulbs to replace the burnt ones asap.

Looking at others plants, I don't know what to do, move the plants under leds earlier and risk to be very potbound in flower, or continue under floros for a couple more weeks..

Anyway, congrats guys, you got some great and fast growing going there! :wave:

Looking good in here boys!

@CHACO: Those Sour Nevs are gonna be some nice colas for sure! How do they smell during flower? Looking good as always man!

@Von: LoL thanks man! Glad to take part this year!

@Wild: lol at the plant envy. What's up with ur little ones would love to see em!

@Maj.C: hahahaha got me choking on this dab hit made me laugh. Sundays it is lol JP.

@Dave: those NL are really vigour and in that set up she must be growing double the rate. They look super healthy. Gonna be nice during flower.

@Exploz: would keep them under floros for a little bit longer then blast them with the LEDs. How big are the little ones ATM.

Loving being part of this with all of u. Noticed a few of us NE'ers coming out to play with 16oz cups lol

Just took this one today:



I' m thinking 2 more weeks under the T8's, then 2 (or even 3) more weeks veg under leds + t5, and then they'll go into the flower room.
that should give me enaugh time to dry and smoke most of them, by the end of the contest, on 24 of September. Sounds like a good plan?

but 2 month of veg in 450ml pots seems like an overkill to me, as i never flowered plants in recipents this small. what can I do/feed them to limit the problems I'll have because they'll be potbound?

EB you can flower at any time. This round we ok´s flowering from seed also. It is just about the finished plant.

I plan on flowering the Nevilles mango soon. It will still be 4 feet tall when it is done if it lives in that 18 oz cup.

I need to build my dripper today.............(von scratches ass thinking about this......)

Yeah I know that, I was just thinking to use almost all available time..
Maybe I'll flower some of them earlier to see the difference.
Anyway, if any of you has any advice for a "virgin" beer cup grower, please share them.

Good luck guys! :wave:

I repositioned my 6 flowering plants between a 430 and a 600 vert combo...I'm running a ton of experiments with the bare bulbs and cooltubes(on the walls, in the corners) and I just replaced my 1000 vert bulb from the middle, the anchor of the room.Going to be a crazy summer...

Damn Dave!

Here are my children.


Theyre gettin so dense I had to pull out the old bamboo (skewers). :biggrin: Day 10? I think so...

I had to tear my closet down to sand, prime, paint and install the exhaust. Should be road-worthy in 2-3 days.


Opps. 13 days from putting in the pods.

Toes.

wow Dave, what are you feeding them NL, they look great!.

CHACO are you looking for a sour leaner or haze pheno for the challenge.

Hey guys, Im glad your liking the NL :). Ive been feeding them GH Flora series 3 part series: 5/5/7, but at only 35% strength of that since Im using Blumats. Normally I run about 40% strength when using Blumats. Also some Agsil16H at the rates Spurr recommended.

Ill be taking clones in a bit, so my plants will look pretty bare for awhile. Im sure they'll really spring up with a weeks time though.
