Hello guys! It was such a disastrous week. Everything was going great until yesterday when I received a 1000w HPS with a electronic ballast. I was running 600w before without any problems with 180m3 exhaust fan. Silly me thought it was okay to run it. I even set it to super lumen mod lol. Couple hours later I smelled smoke coming from my room and realized my exhaust fan stopped working. (Later i found out it has running temp of 40 C) As a result my duct started to melt. Now I'm running my old 600w on half power around 300-400w in between plants without any need to cooling. Also put couple leds to sides for now... I ordered a new exhaust fan 4x big what i use now.. So i think i will be able to run that mf 1000w in couple of days.
Apart from these news, plants are doing amazing. however, they have some problems. Mostly upper leaves are curling and i am getting nute burns every time. I was taking any run off before a week ago so thats gotta be the problem. Run off ppm is around 400-1000ppm. So i thought no need to flush but as i said started to taking run offs every watering now..
Flower formation just began on most of them. Stretch is finally over. I wanted small and compact plants but look what i got... well i can't complain^^ scrog no more bcs they are all at different heights.
Also started to supplement with diy co2 generator. I think its working. peppers grew tremendously last week!!
You are watering too often - its stunting the growth , I'd water every three days , your solution is too strong , the roots aren't drying and they will rot 👍
@CaciqueCayacoa, afaik coco doesn't hold nutrients like soil so i don't see any good in watering without nutes. i'd like to feed small but every time if thats the case.
This is a KILLER looking grow. I see some experience shining through here. Nice job! I am attempting my first "topless" SCROG (trying to bend instead) with 6 different strains right now. It would be cool if you would follow along and make a suggestion or two. - Zannabis7
@@Tryhard, no i still couldn't get my led lights. they have returned to china but i am waiting for refund still... instead, i got 1000w and 600w hps with electronic ballasts! they are awesome and even have overdrive mode. well maybe not so much bcs it broke my exhaust fan lol. my new exhaust fan looks like a plane motor :D it will arrive tomorrow so finally i will be able to run 1000w ^^
@growmcnoob,bro just come on to comment to say these are looking like a a class piece of work your doing but i get many comments some i miss sorry about that did you get any new lights sorted with customs
@@Tryhard, I couldn't sadly! Couldn't get them through customs. My friend is sending 1000w led and it is going to arrive tomorrow. I have started to seperate the pots as you can see in the pictures. I'm not counting but it looks like we are near the end of week 2.
Looking like a beautiful harvest buddy! The buds look beautiful and delicious and I'm sure they must smoke fantastically. I'm very excited for your hard work to have paid off on this beautiful girl. You did a beautiful and fantastic job buddy. You should be very proud of yourself. Great work. I can't wait to see more dank grows from you in the future. Cheers!
@DabCrab, i'd resume it all like "suffered a lot" lol. at one point, i was barely carrying two led and one hps cooltube on my shoulders when they fell onto plants in the tent... thanks for your great words grower of the month! ^^
@CaliGrown, yea bro i was expecting couple heavy yielder this round but ripleys og always exceeds expectations! i should have stop growing all together now with all these buds now lol but no! what will i do if they pile? :D ✋✋
total watts: 2x 600 HPS (one used in half power later in flowering, afghan didn't like much light.) 1x 400W HPS, so it makes it around 1400-1600w for 8 plants. Loving coco coir too! Gonna get a RO filter too this round ^^
Btw im sad because i don't have electricity because of fukin electric companies mistake for like almost a week now... Had to cut Afghan down a little arly :(
thanks for following!
