Hi,
Welcome to my grow, have grown for a while but still learning everyday and defiantly no expert. Also I can not spell for toffee, and spend most of my time spell checking posts, So to the grammar spelling Nazis out there please keep it to yourself. I have a hard enough time as it is and, the spell check can not always decipher what I'm trying to say. With that said on to the good stuff.

Genetics


3x Fruit Automatic Dinafem
1x Critical Jack Auto Dinafem
1x La Diva Delicious Seeds

Setup


Main Room


Size: 60x60x140cm (secret jardin ds60)
Ventilation: A passive intake and a 4 inch RVK inline (with speed control) with carbon filter for extraction, and a small clip on fan for circulation.
Grow Media: 12 ltr root pouches filled with Canna Terra professional +
Light: 135w led with custom spectrum slightly more blue and soft white than most.
Heating: oil filled radiator
Temps: 18c- 25c
Humidity: 50-70% at present
Plants: 3x fruit auto 1 x critical jack

Overgrow Space

Size ??????
Ventilation: Desk fan in cupboard door opening(door is always open with light baffle made out of duvet covers)
Grow media: 6ltr air-pot filled with mix of biobizz all-mix and canna Terra pro +, mostly terra pro
Light: 90w UFO (1w diodes)not sure of actual draw but is a quality light!
Temps: 16c-22c approximately
Humidity: not sure but less than in tent
Plants: 1x La Diva

Nutrients: old-timers organic grow and bloom, trusty old fish mix, rizotonic, alg-mic and super thrive magne cal +, Epsom salts and plant magic bio wetter (wetting agent). These are what i have at my disposile but not everything is necercelery used.

Chemical warfare: neem oil and provado ultimate bug killer(not recommend and last resort does nothing for mites) so far have not had to use either.



All seeds were Planted on the 02/11/12 and all popped in the 36hrs leading up to 05/11/12 so day one is counted from 05/111/12, so today is day 24.

They were all germinated in root riots and planted in there final pots, as soon as they had all sprouted. They were all started under the 135w led(I don't like changing spectrum mid grow found it slows them down a day or 2), but after about 10days it was clear there was not enough room in the tent for them all, so evicted the La diva then as she was the freebee i was least interested in, and but her under what was going to be a flowering booster.

They all had 1/4-1/2 strength rizotonic for 2 weeks with the odd foliar feed of alg-mic say once a week, then have had alg-mic with every watering and grow when required, they are all on different diets because they all want something different, but thats women for you! The critical jack is greedy for nutes find my self topping her up with foliage feeds of fish mix shes had at least one may be two I don't keep notes hence why I'm doing this diary I guess.
The Fruits are average feeders but they consume water at different rates, get low does of nutes every watering now, and la Diva had one small dose of grow when she was yellowing, and that's it for her apart from water and alg-mic.
I also use a wetting agent with any feed that has no grow or bloom in it, and all foliar feeds. Foliar fed epsom salts at start of week 3 and the largest fruit, has had another one as showing a bit more mag def, going with magne cal+ next week if it gets worse but appears under control for now. Trying to grow as organically as possible but find i have mag and cal problems under leds.

The plants in the main tent range from 10-14 inches and the la diva is about 6-8inchs.

I only check tap water p.h once a week and very very rarely adjust it before using the only time being when using rizotoinc on it's own, and make sure it as room temp, normally stand for a few hours or if it's going to be standing for a day or 2 i air rate it.

The only training the girls get is to bend big leaves out the way and a bit of lst to get growth tips pointing to a free patch of canopy, not bending them horizontal, just guiding them to a better area.
And the light has been 20/4 since day one.

That's all the info I can think of that you may want to know, if you have any Q's please ask, you will always get an answer, just can't guaranty it will be a good one!

Will attempt to add pic's in next post, got on camera need to work how to get to 420 give me a tick:peace:

I'll Do a proper photo shot with them tomorrow under normal light, I've been mucking about with them quite a lot today, and don't want to stress Them anymore than I have.

Thanks

As Promised here are some better photos.
Had a bit of an accident and snapped a couple of fan leaves :oops:

They were all getting a lighter shade of green, so had the lovely job of giving them a foliage feed of fish mix at 1ml/ltr and will up the nutes on all of them next time they feed. Gave the la diva a low dose of 50/50 grow and fish mix.

Forgot to take pics of my biggest girl, she was the one i snapped the leaves off, and I got a bit preoccupied with hating on myself, if any one asks she slipped and fell into the door!
Remind me to put epsom salts i their next feeds

Not sure if you can see it properly in the pic, but it looks like there is a bud growing out of the base of the fan leaf, witch would be cool as I have never had that before.

And here's a close up of what I think might be a bud forming on a leaf, what ever it is its growing. Any one got any idea?

I'm used to my auto's being about the size of the La Diva at this stage, but this is the 1st time I have done them in 12ltr pots, would not do four again in that size tent with 12ltr pots, 2 max! I'd say, thinking of trying to find a good home for my runty fruit, not that it's that much of a runt just the competition is fierce!

I Feel the need for some type of competition, to try an clear the tumble weed. The prize could be, say two White Widow fem seeds, from a Spanish breeder but can't work out how I would get prize out!
One love

Beautiful! Those girls are getting a lot of :love: !! It is amazing what 135 watts can produce!!! If you are concerned with size start your big girls 12/12 from seed or clone. The result are thin short plants with one cola... just a thought. If I could I would grow trees like JTG I would :cheesygrinsmiley: I will try to pop in here and follow but I will warn you I am terrible at keeping up.

Glad I popped in!!!

Buckshot I would , or use 6ltr pots, really was not expecting to get to get such explosive growth!
 
Dam My girls need love and I'm hanging:rolleyes3 just remembered why I don't drink anymore.(well much) A whiff of the fish mixes would have me on a chunder run, I've manged to cause a bit of tip burn to the C jack, gave her what was left of the feed i gave to the la diva an folier sprayed fish mixes, so water for her, got to say she is just plain fussy the margin between hunger and overfeeding is so small
 
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, I've got no hangover food, fear the pizza people are about to get some of my hard earned! It's chore day, and so far I've only done the bare minimum a bit of survival water, nearly forgot to make it tepid, got as far taking the watering can to the plant before i realized! Noticed a fungus gnat for the 1st time this grow hope it just got lost n sucked in to the room futher investigation required.
Today is going to be fun! not enjoying the self inflected pain! some one please stick me with a cattle prod I need to get motivated!!!!
 
Zapp!
that sucks you have critters hanging around your beautifull Ladies.
do you have a defense plan?
 
rekon marketing would have a problem with giving free gnats:)
 
My photoshop skills are even worse than normal today, was going to try and blind you with Karma V soil Mies fortified with extra fungus Gnats so when you grow your never alone friendship guarantied.
this reminds me used to use an aerosol spray for the gnats forget what it's called but, we named it the shower of death it was that good! but these days I try an keep it as natural as possible
 
Ive had succsess with homemade tobacco pepper spray:)
