Well I am excited this time after my last grow I had to cut them out of the Scrog because of power outage but it is all good this time. I am switching from the 400 Watt HID HPS lights and going to try out two 700 Watt MarsII Led's. They are the new 2014 with the 5 watt diodes. Hopefully they will produce but only time will tell. I use organic homemade shit-teas (known as Shitty here) for my nutrients. I prefer it to store-bought fert's because it makes me feel more in control as in my experience every strain requires different attention and I can make the adjustments easily. I prepare my clones/plants early with mad LST, topping, Fimming, and super cropping. I tend to only super crop where necessary. This is a open thread and any advice or criticism is welcome. If anyone else requires help need only ask and I will answer and help the best I can.

Welcome all to my playground and happy growing!

White Rhino's clones in there new home. I opened them up a bit and plucked the light blocking leaves. I only took one or so from each plant so they will grow over next few days.

Now is the fun part! I began the training today. Begin by slowly pulling them apart from each other. Don't try to do to much at once you must bend them slowly over a couple days so they wont break. I am using pipe cleaners and clips I got from the dollar store. I will get some garden wire soon tho. I only had to top one of them I topped the others at my friends a few days after they were transplanted from the cloner into the pots.
Here are some pic's of both sides of the plants.

The one I topped. Should be ready for LST in a few days or so.

How diddly doodly neighbor? I'm sub diddly ubb'd for the mad LST SCROG action yo!

I believe I will enjoy watching these grow. This strain is on my list.

 

[Teldren]

Welcome dude! We got it mother planted so let me know if you ever want one.

 

[Teldren]

Well I got my new lights in the mail yesterday and got them installed. Anyone know if the LED would veg faster than my 8 bulb T5? It is flower spectrum but still has blue and white.

 

[Teldren]

And here are the WR's under one of them.

 

[Calyx Hunter]

I know you strive for even growth but could you do a side by side and have one LED veg three of them and have T5 veg the other three? Those LED's look sick and I am continually jealous watching your grows.

 

[Teldren]

Well I can tell by the growth over past few days that for Veg the T5's are by far the best performers.

 

[Teldren]

I transplanted all the White Rhino's into there 7 gallon smart pots yesterday and prepared the lower cabinet section for there new homes. When I transplant I fill pots about 2/3 of the way with soil. Before I put plants in I water the soil with RO water with a little Superthrive. Place plant in and top off soil. After a day or so I gave them a weak tea.
Here they are right after transplanting and a little wilty.

 

[Teldren]

Here they are this morning standing up nice and tall.

Well T, just finished and want to see how far these plants and lights are doing. I would love to be there in Colorado and just grow for patience like you are doing, but I would have to include myself as a Benefactor of the meds !!!

Thanks and welcome along. I had two 400 HPS for my last grow but those were kush's. This is my first time with white rhino. A side by side comparison would be cool to do tho.

Today is the day I begin the mad LST. They recovered really quickly from the transplant (thanks Superthrive!). Time to open them up!

 

[Teldren]

Here they are 3 days later. I let them dry out to spread there roots out looking for water. I gave them a good watering and they had some good growth. Middles are filling in nicely now they are opened up to the light.
This is at about 3 weeks or so since they were cloned.
Added more wires to new branches.

Day 28 Veg. I am starting veg time from when it was taken from the cloner and put into 2 gallon pots. I gave them a good shit-tea and they responded well. Next time will be plain water and then another tea after that.
