Hi all,
New to this so please bear with me and I will do the best I can.
WHAT STRAIN IS IT?
1st Week of Flower completed
1- Mango (Hybrid).... Parents = Mango (Indica) +KC33 (Hybrid)
1- Power Wreck (Hybrid).... Parents = Power Plant + Train Wreck
1-Lemon Sour Diesel (Hybrid)... Parents = California Sour + Lost Coast OG
In the Veg tent =
1- Mango
3-Power Wreck
1-Betty
All plants are from 3 clones I bought from a local dispensary except the Betty which was a clone from a friends mother. He gave me 3, I kept 1 for myself and gave 2 to my brother who is also growing.
Flowering plants are exactly 9 days into flowering
Vegging plants are from 12 days old to 4 days old depending on each plant.
Indoors or outdoors?
Indoors. Flowering in 5x10x6.5 tent Veg in 4x4x6.5 tent.
Size and type of Light?
Flowering with 2 non-sponsor LED's 1 was a freebie from my neighbor (used) 357 watts and 1 325 watt (New)
Also running a Flourescent 4 foot T-5 HO 8 lamp fixture angled on 1 side with 6 red spectrum lamps and 2 blue spectrum lamps.
Vegging with 1 4 foot T-5 HO 8 lamp fixture running 8 blue spectrum lamps.
Temp of the tents?
Flowering tent = 72 to 80 degrees
Veg tent = 74 to 85 degrees
RH?
Flowering tent = 43 to 57%
Veg tent = 48 to 60%
Any pests?
Yes! A few days after my friend dropped off the Betty I found a few spider mites on its leaves in my Veg tent. I imediately mixed up a batch of Neem oil and went to work on all the plants in the Veg and Flower tent. Then I stripped all fan leaves off the Betty which showed any sign of those little bastards and did the same with all the rest in the veg tent. I am pretty sure I stripped more then needed but would rather stunt there grow a bit then deal with missing a hatchling. I have followed up with another spraying 3 days latter and also quarantined the Betty. I check them daily now with a microscope and it appears to be a done deal but will continue checking religiously every day. It has been 12 days now since I first saw anything and have not found any signs as of yet. Will be switching to AzaMax for the next application if needed.
Type of Nutrients and strength?
I am using FF and following their feeding chart.
Pot size?
In Flower=
Lemon Sour Diesel and Power Wreck are in 7 gal. cloth pots while the Mango is in a 5 gal. cloth pot.
In Veg=
Varies from 4 inch plastic pots to 1 gallon plastic to 3 gallon cloth.
Medium =
FF Ocean Forest potting soil.
Ventilation?
Flowering tent = 6x24 Can Carbon filter with a vortex VTX-800 fan controlled by a TMP-DNe controller for exhaust and a 4 inch inline fan for fresh air. I also have 1 12" oscillating fan running and thinking I will get at least 1 more fan for horizontal air movement.
Veg tent = 1 fan for horizontal air movement aimed just above canopy and bottom of lights. I keep 2 of the 3 bottom air vents open at all times and also keep top vent holes open for rising heat to escape.
Watering?
This one was the hardest to get a handle on. As of right now, I am using 3 quarts of water or water plus nutrients every 3 days for the 7 gal. pots where as the 5 gal. pot gets 2.5 quarts, 3 gal. pots get 2 quarts and 1 gal. pots get 1 quart. These numbers will change as the girls thirsts increase, but for now this is working for me. I only apply nutrients every 3rd watering so it tends to screw up my feeding chart that FF suggests.
Summary
I did an outdoor grow which was fun but now its fall and time to move indoors. This will be my 1st indoor grow since the 1980's. I have read a ton of info and researched a lot of ways to increase quality and quantities. Now its time to play around and have some fun. I have 2 plants under a Scrog, 1 of which I will lollipop and one which I will not. I also have one which I did a lot of LST on and topping when it was smaller which will be my stand alone plant. Perhaps next year when I can afford more lights I will grow bigger but for now this is all I can afford (I know this fact because the wife told me so) All this fun and I can not even medicate due to the type of work I do.
Some day, yep some day they will see the light. Completely legal both medical and recreational in Oregon yet they still drug test for it for pre-employment and if I fail, no job for me. Wahhhhhh. on the bright side, I retire in 7 years and will be smoking the biggest fatties you could ever imagine.
Now for what you really stopped by to see, some photos:
This my flowering set up
Here are a few of my next grow in veg.
Will post more once i figure out the correct uploading of pics. I thought i had the rest uploaded but apparently not.
