So guys I've made up my mind on how this first month is going to go. Alright first off I know you aren't supposed to feed nutes to your plants within the first 3 to 4 weeks, but I'm gonna do some experimenting. I figured I'm going to give my girls 2 feedings of 1/2 strength nutes in the first 4 weeks and then after that it will be normal feeding from there on out(: anyways I fed them yesterday with nutes for the first time and so far, as of this morning they are loving it. A few are a bit droopyer than others from the watering but other than that they're growing great! Here is what I fed them for 1 gallon for all 8 girls:

Fox Farms-
3 tsp Big Bloom
1/2 tsp Boomerang
1/4 tsp Wholly Mackerel
About 1/2 mL pH down
6.48 pH

So I guess my reasoning for these two feedings of nutes, is to see if it has any difference on growth rate or anything like that. We will see in these next few weeks!

Alright guys, 2 days after the feed and still no burn so that makes me really happy(: anyways just 2 girls to update you guys on and I think that's about it for today! Oh and one last thing... I named them all(:
RoorRip

Here is Cora, I wanted you guys to see her first true set of leaves because they aren't like the others... She is the only one who grew a pair of 5 finger leaves for her first set, I guess to me that's just something super cool lol and maybe to you guys too!

Thanks Dirt! And yes she will definitely produce some pristine smoke lol, but I'm interested to see how many fingers her leaves get when she is big. Maybe we will see some 9 and 11 finger leaves... We can only hope

Alright guys and it's time for some birthday girl updates lol. So no burn on any of my plants from the nutes, besides Irma. She just got a little minor burn though so nothing terrible. I will say when I fed them I over watered a little too so that could have been it. And because of that I also haven't watered in like 5 days at all and won't do so until the pots are completely dried out. Gotta build those root systems lol. Anyways that's all I really have for you guys for the veg tent. And as promised here are the birthday girls!


Cora - Day 14:

Thanks Dirt! If only I was as good at cloning lol my clones I took were too early so I don't think my plants were mature enough and the root cubes we too saturated all the time and it rotted the stems, so I took some more cuttings today. This time I soaked the cubes in water with aloe powder for about 20 to 30 mins. Then let the cutting soak a little bit longer in the clonex as well. So I'm starting over with the cloning thing and we will see what happens. I left a few cuttings from before that are on day 9 so we will see if they ever root

Just updated the flower tent and now here here I am once again... We will now begin the veg tent update, and you all should definitely be excited because we have some crazy things going on in here!

First order of business will be the light situation. Not much on this topic, beside the fact the my Vipar spectre 600w is now in the veg tent. This light compares to a 600w MH and it has a very cool spectrum with not much red light, so probably kinda useless for flowering. But hey, it's worked wonders in veg and it covers a 4x4 space at 24 inches. I have it hanging now at around 26 inches or so from my babies(:

Also in the pictures you will see the clones in the middle. The 2 on the left are ones that I tried to take and put in soil instead of cubes. Not really sure if they will make it, but if not it's no big deal. I mean I do have about 14 plants coming( 8 seedlings I started, and 6 clones or so I'd imagine) and not even sure if I will have places for all. Might drop it down to about 7 or so and just have 1 or each strain because right now I have 2 or 3 plants of 7 different strains lol. Now the 2 on the right, they had tiny roots poking out of root cube so the got transplanted. I'm gonna feed them 1/4 strength nutes tonight since I gave them water after transplanting, but forgot nutes.....

Alright, here are my last two orders of business before we get to the pictures. Inez got topped and Cora got FIM'd. I did this last night and it was at the 3rd node. For all of the other babies, I will wait and let grow more and then decide where to top(:

Now here are the pictures of my girls!

Inez - topped day 16

Alright guys, lights came back on at 5:30, and I transplanted my other 4 girls. Now all 8 are in 5 gals and the soil is Happy Frog still too. Over in the top right corner you will see my clones. They haven't been doing much this past day or two. Well that's about all I have, enjoy the picture(:
