I upgraded my bucket with a 14W LED beamer I found in the basement ;)Its perfect for Veg since it has a 6500K and when checked with my Power meter it actually consumed 14 W of light. So now my seedling(s) (I am a bad dad... I only grant the healthy girl direct access to the light... Lets see if she can take it or if I have to move her away a bit...) get an extra dose of light from the side in order to better Veg.

I still have no clue how others manage "real plants" by week 3 if I look at the other diaries... She is still so tiny and small...

I love it how you just jumped in there and kept going. Small typo: In week 8 you have written the length in inches instead of cm, or your plant shrunk 20 cm's :D.

@goarilla, Fixed ;)

not enough oxygen in the water and water temp is probably too high you need calmag to also bring ph down 5.8 i like a little drift so i start res at 5.6 and let it go 6.0 the knock it back to 5.8

@rdrunner, you're welcome. As a french who have been studying history of art I can tell you have skills.

@Korfer, Thanks ;)

Its beautiful, and i think that its not low yield. Take care. :)

rdrunnercommented8 years ago

@thrashordie, the small harvest applied to the 3 popcorn buds only... But the total harvest could have been a bit bigger, since I could have waited a week...(which I could not due travel). She had some nice roots going in the end ;)

Nice work man! Not the smallest harvest on here fyi - I think I managed worse on my first grow :p

rdrunnercommented8 years ago

@Book_of_Thoth, the smallest harvest was aimed at the "Force dry" picture above, where I just dried 3 popcorn buds to test ;)

@LoveDispenser, Cant wait for the real harvest ;) Will give her a few more days

rdrunnercommentedweek 28 years ago

@TaNg - should i slowly add some nutrients to the water? I am not sure if she is well and feel she is growing to slowly 😟

rdrunnercommented8 years ago

@TaNg, full ok added some food stuff for them

TaNgcommented8 years ago

@rdrunner, definitely bro if your growing in rock wool you need to feed from very early on.

Looks like it turned out pretty great 😀. Patience is always tough but I guess that's part of the learning process. Good luck on your next grow! I just started my second quick one as well.

20 hrs Light Schedule ?? 12/12

Manolchincommentedweek 27 years ago

Hello my old friend! I have only one note to you. After the second week of vegetation, Hydro-Grow should be used. ? Please do not be angry. It must be a technical error. Be alive and healthy!

ClubRiotcommentedweek 87 years ago

nice buds! good job! 👍💪

nicogmcommentedweek 88 years ago

Beautiful trichome shots, congrats on the harvest!

Strangercommentedweek 78 years ago

I started my first grow with one of these right around the same time in soil. Will be interested to see how it compares!
