The Journey Begins, First Failures & Some Success

Not much to update the plant have grown 8” this week and some pistols have shown up. I fed them on Tuesday and it rained last night so I will feed again tomorrow.

I found a couple green inch worms on the girls tonight. I will go hunting tomorrow.

I also think it is time again for some defoliation.

What do you guys think??

Like I said “I’m a complete newb” at this shit. I went out and purchased a light and reflector today so I could move the plants inside. Needless to say I won’t be moving them inside yet.
I purchased a 200w, 6400k sunblaster bulb, an aluminum reflector, 24 hour dual socket timer and some more tomato feed. Well the bulb has an E39 socket and the reflector has a weird ass plug on it. Can you guess what items will be returned today. I will give you a hint, not the tomato food or the timer.
It really sucks that the hydro stores around here are closed on Sundays. Looks like I will be ordering something off of amazon.
I just don’t think the cheap LED that I currently have will produce enough light.
 
Nice.

So I just picked this up. Now to move the girls into the shop and get them sheltered from the elements.

I almost bought a pair of them recently. I got vetoed at the last minute.
Soon though.
I hope it grows some great buds for you Kev.

The adventure of bringing the girls inside.
Barely fit through the door.

This almost ended badly. I had to take them out of the truck and reload them outside.
One of my neighbours drove by and yelled “wholly fuck those are huge”.

Here they are in the shop under the grow light.

I put them on the liner for the grow tent to see the footprint and I think if I manipulate some of the branches it might fit in the tent. This is where I will need some advice from you guys. The next picture shows the side that can be propped up to make room.

It will be tight but I think they will fit.

What do you guys think????
 
I agree with your neighbour! :rofl:
You could thin them out a bit. That may help them fit, and keep a good airflow too which is always healthy for the girls.
See how you get on :cool:
 
They should fit,but they're going to be against the walls and each other.
In my grow box,they adapt pretty well to being against the wall,where it gets crazy is in the middle,where they're growing into each other.

You can either just let them grow into each other,or rotate them about a quarter turn per day to keep them from getting all up in each others business ...

As @DonkeyDick said, thinning them a bit will help with both air circulation and light penetration, so it's something you might want to consider doing...
Beautiful plants,Kev!
