Cytrax welcome and great start. Nice images and organised well. DD

[Cytrax]

thanks for the kind words doobie.. I checked some of your pics doobie and they are cool..

You are right matt - alot have said that and I am kinda prepared for that.. should find out from the plant thats in flower now tho and if its a hermie then me and the motherplant will be cutting our ties and it will end up in the bottom of the garden with the other males

update from the stinky tonight as I am quite happy with the growth..
I like to check the roots of my plants to see if they are happy by checking the color of the roots and mass are a good indication of whats going on..

When I popped the pot off I was happy to see the progress so far and by my judgement they are in need of another Re-Pot as the roots are starting to get out of hand but are happy and well.

Stay cool
Cytrax

tagging along for what looks like an interesting show...

nice and clean!

[Cytrax]

hey there sleepy cool to have you along.. you bring the popcorn and I will bring the cheech and chong flicks got plenty more space.. the more the merrier

Okay well I know I only updated last night but I have not managed to get a Pics of the Big Haze and Melonica with lights out.. I went in 1 hour before lights the go on and I checked RH and Temp Temps in there are so perfect, humidity is perfect.. I am just so stoked that everything is going well.. Plants are filling out now and since they are meant to be lanky sativas I am stoked they look the way they do..

Temps with lights off is 20C
RH was 50%

I have a fan blowing accross plants and Blow heater comming on when temps dip to low..
They had their last feed of chempak #2 two days ago so next time they are gonna get some bloom feed. I am going to have to move them a bit apart as they have really grown loads in the last few days. Sorry for updating again - here are the pics .

wow plants look really healthy. how are they with fertolizers and soil. do you rec a heavy/light soil mix anything you could advise me on with those would be helful

[Cytrax]

hey there MrPiston.. Thanks for Stopping by and looking in.. The Soil I am using is called West Advanced Plus. I have added 30% agricultural perlite for airation even tho the Compost is very light and airy. The soil does contain nutrients for aprox 4 weeks but I still give them feed. I was feeding them on something called Chempak #2 (NPK 25-15-15) but now in bloom they will be getting Chempak #4 (NPK 15-15-30) -I have used this chempak stuff for a while and never had over fert or anything like that.. I Just use it at about 75% recomended dosage and your plants will stay happy..




Thanks again for the kind words - hope you found this usefull..

I used to use chempak no3 balanced fertilizer 20-20-20 for veg and no8 low nitrogen 12.5-25-25 for bloom at 1/4 to 3/4 strength and always got real good results with them.
I'm totally organic nowadays apart from 1 DWC i've just got so i can get a rough idea of yield potential which i'm using canna aqua and PK13/14.

[Cytrax]

sounds cool about the organic ferts you have matt - I have had a problem with the chempak yet and have seen a few commercial growers get amazing fatty solid nugs with it.. Cant go wrong with the price either..

Small update from the weekend.. I pulled 3 males from the flower room 2 Melonica and 1 Big Haze. It looks like there may actually be a few more also. :( - not the end of the world as the stinkys are due to go in soon.. Stinkys are looking good and one is auto showing sex. I have recycled the soil from the males I found as there were not many roots at all.. I have also got 10 other clones of 6 Dutch Passion Power Plant and 4 Unknown Strain that are going to be vegging with the stinkys. I need to make up the numbers in the flower room as there is 2 x 600W to get used.

Will post some updates if when I get home something remarkable has happned..
adios

[Cytrax]

sorry for late update but the show goes on Was a bit ill during the week but I am guessing the rest of the U.K was also..

So plants are looking awesome.. I will start with the details of whats left outa the crazyx stuffs..

2 big Haze Fems
1 Melonica Fem
3 Lemon Stinky Fem *so far - 2 more late commers

Okay so out of the 9 melonica and big haze's I had to chuck 6 boys.. No stress as I still had the stinkys to go in.. As soon as I got 7 nodes on the LS they went into sex and I left them in their small pots till they had showed me their bits (that was this eve but am nackered so will do tomorrow eve.. Stinkys went into flower on the 08/01/08 and so far so good no sign of any males yet -

Okay things look a bit crowded on that side of the flower room but I am only doing it like that for now to save on the leccy under one of the 600w HPS's. I will have 9 plants on each side of the flower room when things become a bit crowded because atm you can only see half Jump

so if all the stinkys turn out to be fems then all the crazyx's will have their own side of the bloom room 5LS - 1MEL - 2BH

On the other side we are going to have 5 Dutch Passion Power Plant's and 4 or 5 Unknown white strain plants and one Lonely Big Bud Plant allready starting to bud up..

In terms of most attractive plant in there right now? it has to be the Big Haze that I did not top while veging - its the plant in the back right - To me it is so uniform and perfect and nodes are evenly spaced with nice big leaves and no strecth... I am tempted to take a cutting and keep as a mother... decisions decisions..

Anyways I am waffling.. here are the pics just after lights came on last night so plants are a bit droopy still...

RH is about 50%
Temps lights out 20
Temps lights on 26 - 27
