Hey WonderWoman, thanks for the kind words!.. I currently have them in solo cups and plan on using a combo of 1gal pots for part of veg then ending in either 3 or 5 gal fabric pots for flower.. shooting for 8-12 ladies this seed run :tiphat:

Damn bro nice floppy chicks there! whats her name? she got a sister :biggrin:? haha.. I need to set up my drip system again & make life easier for me with watering.. What are the blinds on the sides of the plants for in that pic if I may ask?..and your right I forgot last time I used 5gal pots I ended up with monster hard to manage KQR trees lol.. so I guess 3gals will work well considering I'm aiming for 8-12 ladies to fill in the space.. thanks for the heads up! :ying:

i used the blinds to keep the light tight to the trays instead of spread out through the room . the room was to big & i lost alot of the WPSF untill i put the blinds in . went from a lb per light down to 3/4's , then i put the blinds in & it brought it back up .
now that summer is here , i broke down that room & put my 4 x 8 room back up so i have a lung room to cool the veg area . being in an attic SUX BALLS !!!! constantly fighting temps !!! can't friggin wait to move from here .

Thats the GG4 ( Gorilla Glue #4 ) ..... if you can get yer hands on it ..... it will not dissapoint !!!!

That's smart thinking dan w/ the blinds.. that would of never crossed my mind lol.. I hear ya about the attic as my first grow was in one and that was a house of horrors to deal with year round... That GG#4 looks superb I'm in envy haha.. maybe one day it will make it this way.. nothing ever does in my little town tho.. the best going around ATM is some (insert name here) generic kush.. anywho thanks for sharing bro :tiphat:

I believe it was you that turned me onto veg+bloom 1 part(thanks again) coming from maxibloom.. I absolutely love the stuff!!! so simple ez pezee just how I like it.. I have been able to cut out ph up and down completely as it falls into range on its own which is a +

I know my nutrient profile looks a tad complicated currently, but I'm only using certain additives at certain times of the grow cycle and not all at once.. the soul synthetics grow(part organic part synthetic) and dark energy(additive) I got for free and if they don't produce they will be cut out come next round.. everything else I have down in terms of usage and love what I get as a result. :biggrin:

Quick update

Quick update

Just finished transplanting 16 out of 18 plants into 1gal pots, the other 2 will have to wait till I get more coco as I ran out lol.. I have also finally switched over to veg+bloom 1 part for the rest of the grow.. It's a little crowded in the veg tent atm but once sexed the males will be cloned and chopped to free up space.. My hopes are to find at least 2-3 solid standout plants out of the bunch to clone and do a full run under my two 600w HPS lights.


Here's a couple group shots after transplanting @ 3 weeks since breaking ground.. nothing special to show just yet :

Quick update part 2

Quick update part 2

I decided to switch out the H/O T5 with aged crappy bulbs and put in one of my new adjust-a-wings w/ super spreader and a new 400w MH bulb:woohoo:.. I also got my intake and exhaust set up properly now as temps are getting real hot here in my parts of the midwest..:moon:.. Tent is at a steady 78F and 60% RH currently


A few pix.. I think its setup well.. the light spread is superb... I plan on lowering it more in a few days.. thankfully I got a medium sized one or else it wouldn't of fit the 2x4ft veg tent lol

LOL yea for now.. I'm good temp wise running just the 400w MH right now for veg considering its been ~90F outside the last few days.. I have a ton of air flow in the veg tent atm which is kinda overkill to be honest(two 6in inlines in/out).. but once I hook up the second adjust-a-wing and switch out the bulbs to the 600w HPS and move to the 5x4ft area for flower I'm deff. gonna have to run the lights during the night as temps will be an issue..

I'm pulling my intake air from the other part of the basement which is cold because of central air running in the house... I also have a portable AC unit that I will have to surely use during the hottest days this summer once I'm in full flower.. as there is no air vents in the room just 1 small window.. good luck dealing with the heat bro!
