Will be germinating 16 feminised big bud seeds this week and setting a 3m x 1.5m x2m tent up have a good load of equipment on route 8inch can max ac fan I've an 8 inch vortex acoustic box fan there but probably overkill will see what it's like plugged into the sms com 7a fan speed Controller and turned down alot lol as its like a jump jet and my m8 almost had a heart attack I was like it'll be silent once it's all connected or turned down but if its not well change lol, probably use a 6 inch rvk for intake and the 8inch can max fan for exhaust have a spare rvk 4inch to use and a 12 inch oscillating fan and 10 inch clip fan, so will use 7 cfls all different ones for veg, have 8 other plants germinated on the 16th last month I might put in here also as I'll be using alot of light have a kind k5 1000w led and a flexstar 1000w digital de gavita style light so will be running both at full power during flowering it'll be a bright and a well set up. Room, will probably use advanced Nutrients or possibly Continue running remo not sure yet, will be using 20 litre fabric pots and canna terra professional plus soil, will be vegging for 6 to 8 weeks under Scrog nets and then flowering will be a very fun grow
Tent set up plants in tomorrow, will be adding 8 plants today and 10 big bud seeds will be going down also with a 4 to 5 week veg time depending on size hopefully they go crazy and its shorter
Ran Into an issue see latest video
1st April, 7 clones going strong 6 in 2 propagators and 1 potted in coco all going well, and then 6 plants that were moved from one tent to another are powering on rightly very tall some of them and growing fast more tent fillers than anything, I currently have the mh light set at 400w above the 6 plants and the clones are in the middle of the mh light and the kind k5 series 1000w which is about 4 foot above the 10 big bud seeds the kind can cover a 4x4 footprint perfectly in flower and a 5x5 in veg and the mh light can go to 660w so both lights can easily cover the room I'll have a gavita Pro 1000w de to use as replacement for the 600w for the final few weeks of flower which will push the yield big time will install 4 nets across this tent at one stage and fill the nets 70 percent before I flip them which I expect to be in 4 weeks to 5 weeks max, temps lights on sit at 26 and rh is 45 and lights off 17oc and 55 rh good airflow and a well ran room looking good can't wait to fill it
Update 1st April night lights on, stripped 6 big plants of a good load of leaves to start that even canopy off will be adding a net to these 6 soon
Everything's going smooth as gonna be a smashing room kind have my remote on the way from cali so I can dial the lights down will be dropping it a foot or so this week turned the mh light from 250w to 400w and temps and humidity are sitting in sweet zone and 15oc lights off I like a cold room
2 males pulled from room leaving 19 plants, replaced fans with a rvk 6 inch for intake and a rvk 6 L for exhaust, added another oscillating fan also will strip 70 percent of fan leaves at week 3 and that will be them until harvest just feed with nutes and plain water one feed on one feed off, and i only use silicon every other feed everything is phd to 7 for water feeds and 6.6 for nute feeds, i also ph the silicon after adding it to water and then add my nutrients, im seeing brilliant results with the shogun Nutrients and the big bud are fast vigorous growers ill need that net by the looks of things, have neglected my diary but will be active alot more, update 14th june, ill be adding an air con unit so i can put my 1000w de upto 1000w and the adjustawing to 660w temps are great now ive the two rvk fans comnected to an sms com dual fan speed controller added another oscillating fan today and will sort ac unit asap all is good no more signs of males either will continue to watch closely bought some more shogun nutrients today also will be getting the geisha foliar spray
Gave them a good defoliation 2 days back to back removed at least 30 percent of big fan leaves have ph at 5.8 and 6 for plain water 20 litres feeds all plants feeding everyday and trying to keeo temps and electric costs down round about 4 quid a day so quite high and lights only on 600w and 660w will fiddle with intake ducting and get temps down to 25oc hopefully next week as i want to turn gavita upto 750w and keep the adjustawing on 660w but all is good some nice bud formation already
Really starting to pack the weight on now looking really well all feeds pH at 5.8 and plain feeds 6 at the last feed was 1100 ppm can see vast bud formation by the day some will need string to hold them up soon looking amazing alot of trichomes and fat DENSE BUDS, can't really complain about anything bar temps in this grow but it's summer and I'm.in a tent with an intake that isn't to my standards but all.strains seem to have enjoyed the 27 oc to 29oc heat , I've amazing airflow and exchange , can't wait to see the results of this really excited to try it as they smell and look amazing
Help think I found a hermie see latest video plant at end of video
Really looking good now the plant I thought was a hermie was actually swollen calyxys all plants are powering on rightly lights all turned down due to the heatwave and 31oc temps outside
These girls are really looking well the 10 big bud performed as I wanted them to in the short space of time they had to veg , the older plants I had transported into this larger tent are very big plants and required alot of effort to keep contained in a 3m x 1.5m tent with the lighting and long veg time I did Controlling temps has been mad but with large rvks and a fan speed Controller manageable it'll be a long awaited harvest and looking forward to it start of week 7 tomorrow update 15 plants harvested as they had seeds
Shit all my crop pollinated but on the upside if there is one I have some amazing seeds who knows what they're a cross off but I had big bud Northern lights pink kush and strawberry banana in the tent so it could very well be a mental cross for sure ill run it shortly and pheno hunt them
