White Widow Halloween Grow With 315 Watt CMH Light Journal

Hey Major PITA, I had my water checked. Theres no smell of anything weird like chlorine or sulfer. Just plain well water with no filters or softener. The ppm was around 300 I think. I forgot what the guy at the store said it was exactly. He did say that he would personally use it even tho it was borderline as far as PPM goes. I hope I'm not confusing that with anything else he checked. Said if anything I could go half and half with distilled if I was worried.
Also I transplanted the girls into there fabric pots. Super happy with the way the mix took water. Now I'm starting to understand how you can spread out watering. Mine use to drain right out and never hold onto any water. The new mix sucked it up like how its suppose too.
Now on to read up on fabric pots.

300 PPM is high. It all depends on what it is that makes up that number. I'd give it a try. It may be fine and keep things cheap and simple. Dunno...
 
Here are a few shots from today. They got transplanted into 3 gallon fabric pots. Thought I had bigger but this will do. So growing has been ok lately. There filling out more and more. I topped the smallest one today so hopefully she will spread out some more. 1 is going strong with another right behind it. Then I have the other 2 that isn't bad by any means, just smaller. Its been 37 days since they sprouted. I feel they should have been twice as big as they are. Seems they are about 2 weeks behind where they should have been. Pretty sure my lack of knowledge and lack of water at the beginning slowed them down. Could be wrong. Seems everyones plants are much bigger. Maybe its the pics playing with my head but I doubt it.
Hoping they grow better with there new homes with better soil. Starting to get the itch to flip them but its too early. Much room on the sides and top still. Really want to fill the bottom up better but its taking for ever.

ill post pics as soon as it lets me. seems the "my photos" tab isn't working atm

Do those colors look accurate to you - sort of lime green?

Grebs,

Wonderful grow so far! May I ask what are those below your fabric pots? Looks super effective for drainage.

I'm having a hard time figuring out an effective one for collecting runoff and not letting the girls sit in it either.

Oven trays over a bucket work well

There just little stands I got at the hydro store. They sit in the run off pans, keeps them off the ground. Plenty of holes to keep air circulation. About 2 dollars a piece

Me either!! Hoping they have a growth spurt now that they have been transplanted. Itching to flip them but they need to grow some more I think. They could triple in size and I would still have room in my little tent.
Come on babies!!! GROW!!

Don't hurry the veg phase! Those flowers need something to grow from eh :) couple more weeks in veg makes a massive difference to yield

One of the benefits of gravity feed auto pot system with air dome is that this is never a worry!

Gonna let them veg awhile longer. I know there too small still. Some times I like to bitch and moan a lil. Unless they take off and really grow fast, I'll flip them on new years
If they are not big enough after 2 months then I prolly have other issues
