1st Grow - 5x Auto Super Hash + 1x Auto Sugar Mango Ryder - Help?

[StreetDweller]

Sugar mango is looking monstrous! I was surprised by her size compared to my first auto, and by the looks of yours it's definitely genetic

This is 100% the help from people here, I'd be dead in the water without the suggestions you have all made, my younger brother is a fisherman, and he was checking out my plants last night and offered to invest and buy the rest of my equipment, guess they just had two really good trips, but I even told him, I know a good amount of stuff about this, but it's the guys on the site helping me out the most.

Super Hash "D"

Super Hash "E"

Rotated, noticed that the three plants all the way to the right have just been dominating this grow, so I'm trying to even it out a bit. Those are all 5 gallon square pots, about 12" x 12" for size reference.

Another bud that was delicious lol

So I'm thinking a 1000 watt HPS will be fine for my flowering tent. Putting together the list of expenses for things I need, it's stacking up, can't wait for the payoff when I can harvest

I'm thinking about taking clones from the White Widow, Super Lemon Haze, and Tangerine Dream. I want to try my hand at breeding, I have a pretty good idea of a strain combination that I want to try. I'll probably drop some Headband seeds in the near future, grab a male for pollen and store it.

Hi Streetdweller, your plants are looking good to me!
I've never used HID lights before, but from what I've seen on other journals a 600w HPS would be more than adequate on it's own in a 36x36 flowering tent. the hardest part would be trying to cool the darn thing!

Right now I have basement tent and it's snowing every other day, passive intake on a 36 x 36 tent and one 240 CFM exhaust fan and the temps are holding 79-81 F The humidity super low surprisingly, considering I had to run a dehumidifier when I first finished the basement. The light isn't too hot right now with the 600 watt. I'm most likely going to an apartment in the next couple of months though, and the summer heat will be coming, that's when I should see a bigger problem.

Exciting, I'm looking at a few new places tomorrow, hoping I find a place that has plenty of room for my growing in a decent price range, my area is pretty pricey.

Plant D and the Super Lemon Haze both seem to have maybe a magnesium deficiency?

can anybody confirm/deny this? Looks almost yellowish on the insides with both plants, weird, the Tangerine Dream and White Widow are thriving though

 

[Kid156]

I would agree with that.

 

[StreetDweller]

which nutrients do I boost to provide for that?

What are you adjusting your pH to? I see you are using General Hydroponics Flora series nutrients, how many millilitres per gallon and of what are you feeding? Always shake your nutrients before use. Always start by adding to water in this order Flora Micro, Flora Bloom and Flora Gro. Always pH adjust your nutrient mixture after the nutrients are added. You may require a calcium and magnesium supplement for your plants. If you have a magnesium deficiency you can treat it with 1 teaspoon per gallon of Epsom Salts.

I am feeding 1/4 of the suggested amount on the bottles. I will note tho, these are the two plants that had the roughest transplants... maybe because their roots were damaged they are having a hard time processing the nutrients?

 

[StreetDweller]

I just did some gardening and carefully mixed the nutrients, made sure I went in the right order, we will see if I was the problem lol

How is the sugar mango doing bro? How old is she now?

How is the sugar mango doing bro? How old is she now?

she's 5 1/2 weeks and looking really nice, budding is behind the others, and I think I really blew it topping too late, but we will see, I'll most likely do a full picture update tomorrow

Same to you! Tangerine dream looks so good to me, I want to do another large photo update the middle of this week.

 

[StreetDweller]

yeah looking at the ladies this morning as the light powered on, Tangerine Dream looks amazing, Dinafem White Widow is looking good, Super Lemon Haze still just meh, I upped magnesium to no avail thus far. Dropped four Headband seeds, looking for a strong male, would like to try my hand breeding, I have some good ideas in mind
