Hello every one!

Is it aircooled? No
Temp of Room/cab? ~25C/77F
RH of Room/cab? 55%
PH of media or res? Media/res ~5.8-6.2
Any Pests ? Hello no!
How often are you watering? 1,2-1,5Liter /0,8Gal twice a day. Breakfast and lunch
Type and strength of ferts used? Gold label Soil A+B, Gold label Mg+ during veg. And will Use Gold label A+B, Overdrive, Bud factor X for flowering. Will also use Final phase last week. Sorry, dont know the NPK of these, if any one wants to know i'll check.

My Questions For the non SCROG plant.

#1 If the plants have showed slowed growth, soon to be rootbound. Will that efftect how much they stretch?

#2 If i trim of the lower growth, wich will only turn out to be popcorns, will that give me bigger buds? or will it just allow that energi to be spread between bud growing/stretching/leafe size? or simular.

#3 Any tips on what i can do to slow down the streching i got like 40cm left before they will hit the lights, and i cant raise the lights more, could take my hps and switch it with my LED, but i dont want to do that, since im doing a compare run hps vs LED

#4 I'm running with a auto watering system, since i only got one big enough res i am feeding them with nutes every day, in small doses like 1/8 of recomended dose (recomenden dose of GL A+B is 2ml per litre), any thoughts on how much nutes would be ok during flower, not to burn them
its a 208litre res.

And for my scrog the folling question(s) are:

s#1. Is it better to have some vertical growth before flipping, I.e 10cm vertical grow. Or is it better to tie it all down, pretty much no vertical growth. And Why so ?

re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

Hoping fore some nice tiny flower for my next update so i can give you some new pics =)
 
re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

Today i tried defoliage method! took me and a buddy 3 hours of just cutting away leafs.

For the first time in a while i had to scrub the floor, one dripper fell out from my pot for some reason and waterd my floor. No biggie tho.

Second problem, lucky as i am, i rechecked all timers and stuff, and found that i forgott to change my time on the cfl light, was still on 18/6 but no reason to worrie to much i think =)

New update tomorrow with some new nice pics =)

Cheers
 
Hi there Journal!

heres the latest status report.

New things that happend, i tried to defoliate to day, wich im real happy with, took some time, just about 3 hours for med and a friend to do it on 5 plants.

and it seems they had nothing against it, havent showed any signs of dislike this far anyways.

all is good otherwise, temps are as allways 24.7 daytime and about 20 at night time. Rh are at 45-55% will be for another two weeks and i will set it at 30-40% then.

pff... what else :hmmmm:

ohh i've got a few hairs popping out now, saw them already a couple of days ago, but they are more and bigger now (still pretty small tho) but i guess they will stay this way for atleast another 5 days until the shock have cleared from cutting of fan leavs.

Here are some pics i took today, some totaly random but still.

Have a close look at this and tell me what have happend, look at the right of the Y in the first and u se a "sail" and same on the 2nd but to the left

I like your setup... many will like your plant abuse. :cheesygrinsmiley: not me!

What would Cheesus do?
 
re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

Quick update,

"#¤%&/(/&%¤#"#¤""¤¤"¤"¤" crappy ass low price timers! the timer i had to control my CFL light just broke, AGAIN!!!!! it jumped to on by it self, so it was on for 36hours straight!! damn crappy stuff!!!

But solved it.

Thats it for this year! see you again next year journal!
 
re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

Plans for next year.

Replace HPS bulb with a new one mh+hps

Get two new strains going, Looking at GWS and White rhino, other high yielding strains are welcome, any suggestions? need to be within 8-10week flowering.

Seting up my tent again, for cloning/mother area, and going 12/12 in the big room.

Building side lighting with atleast 5 t5 flou.

restocking on nutes, perhaps even change some out, any suggestions ?
 
re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

i am a firm believer in having a fan or two that are strong enough to make the leaves jiggle from the start i find that all my stems and main stock become very strong and become excellent size to increase plant welfare

yeah me to =) i got two table fans for moving the air around, and its working good enough. its a big difference with and without a fan blowing on them, i tried with my random seeds, and they turned out real weak in the stem so had to buy one more fan for them to.

Thanks man ! :D

Can say the same about yours man! love that your doing a huge scrog!

Much maintenance with it ? for me ( tho im growing in soil) i need to bind it down every third day, otherwise its a forest in that screen haha:D

would like to do a simular scrog like yours some day.
 
re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

Todays update:

Nothing new, to soon to tell the sex on all the randoms so far, but when the time comes i could need a pro's eyes to help me determine sex, never grown anything that wasnt fem-seeds before. so it will be fun to see what we get from those!

I sealed all the door in and around the grow room, dont want any smell to leak out haha, would suck!

The two fans and carbon filters are doing there job well so far, and i keep them on 24/7 so i have a under preassure in the grow room, and i hope that will help me to not get any smell in the other rooms =)

anyways! perhaps in a few days, 3-5 i can bring you guys some small flowers to look at :D
 
re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

how come your defoliating daily? my understanding is it will be in a state of shock if done constant?, or maybe if you have been doing it since begining they are used to it ?
 
re: Second Grow - LED - HPS - CFL - Soil - Normal & SCROG - 5x UK Cheese & 10x Random

I dont mean keep them stripped bro,it takes me a full week to defoliate the whole room so by the time im done the plant i started with has already grown back most of the leaves so I use the pinch tecnique and keep all the lower budsites exposed. I just remove the leaves that are covering a nug wherever its needed.
 
Back again!

Sry for not doing daily reports, have other stuff to do aswell =).

Anyways, plants are doing excellent! growing and starting to get more and more hairs every day!

and 4 of the randoms have showed sex ( female only so far :D:D) even got tiny tiny buds on some of them.

thought they were kinda slow so i kickstarted them with a boost of P and it made a real difference!!

had to do some super cropping on two of the big plants to slow down the stretch, they have grown about 25cm (10inch) since 24/12-12
and it seems they are going to slow down now, yeey! finaly i can start to see some bud perhaps !

I've been doing some thinking about giving two of the plants some taste.

One will be a chili flavour (chili-cheese i will call her) and the other one might be a blueberry-cheese, will do the exxtracts my self, have to buy the blue berrys, but im growing chilis so i will take the ones i got and make a good tasting soup to serve them.

and hopfully the chilicheese wont be to strong of a smoke haha.

On thursday i hope to have some pictures of the randoms (and the others) so you guys can help me determine sex of the one's i cant figure out my self.

love Cheese!
