We're gonna give this another grow. This time around I've upgraded the lighting to a 600w MH/HPS combo and the ladies are in a 4x4 vivosun tent. These girls have been planted in Blue Sky organics super soil with a mix of worm castings so I won't require any further nutrients for awhile because of the contents of the soil. Shout out to Aztech Genetics for the Five Gallon fabric pots I will be using for this grow.
Weekly Update: We've got three White Rhino and One OG Kush. One of the White Rhinos is a couple days behind from being planted a little too deep. Everything germinated and we are through the first week. Currently have the wattage set at 250 and will up the power in the next couple weeks. Been watering everyday but mainly trying to keep the soil fairly dry and correct my overwatering issues from last grow. Originally had the distance of the lights sitting around 25 inches but I noticed them getting a little stretchy so I brought the lights down to 20 inches.
Keep it Growing GD!
atm everything looks fine.... you are going to need your extra 200 watts for the Flowering stage. Using it before? i see no big need. Look how she develops and always shows a good internodial distance. I dont know how big your growspace is but 400 watts HID should be enough for a growingspace like 2x3 feet..... so keep your girlin your eye.. if she start to grow to dense with a short internodial distance dimm the power down/ rise the lights. If flowers has appeared around week 2 of flowering stage you can give all your wattage on her, shes strong enough then
ok in week 4 i found the space of your growing tent,, and yes the lights fit very well to that space. but keep her on your eye not to give to much watage in the beginning
Hi @HolySmoke! I like to dim my driver to the max as soon as my plants enter the preflowering stage. If you have only 1 or 2 plants in here, there's no need for more than 400w during the veg stage, but it's all about the quality of your light/spectrum and the way you manage the plant-to-lamp distance. I would keep it in 400w mode until you trigger the flowering stage. Hope this will help, let me know in the comments section if you need any further information. Happy growing! 👊
@Stick, Thanks, this is my first grow using MH/HPS and it's extremely difficult to find information like light distance and such. Appreciate your help!
