1st indoor grow

[nozzleboy]

Alright, back again for another update. Overall things are going good. One of the clones has shown its roots so its been put in a bigger pot. Should start to sex it soon. Any suggestions on how to go about this? The other clone hasnt really progressed so im just gonna get another clipping and try again. Now for the big girls, they are doing good one of them has been growing pretty fast sometimes getting caught in the lights and burning itself, but shell be alright.
Other than that everything is running smoothly. Heres some shots.

They look great, man. Brothers, why is I heard it was ok to trim as long as you don't trim off all 7 leaves and as long as it isn't a frequent practice. I read that it stimulates growth. Is this wrong?

Yes, AeroTX, it is wrong. Trimming leaf causes the plant to lessen it's growth while it heals the wounds caused by the trimming. After it heals, it then has LESS green surface to use in Transpiration and Photosynthesis. This will cause the plant to be less than it could be without the trimming.

Another thing, I use a 400 watter and she works GREAT. I am having much better results than when I had my 600. I guess it depends on the space you are working with.

How a plant grows with only light considered is dependant on the spectrum and intensity of the light.

If both lights were the same type of light, then the amount of lumens is the only consideration past that. For a 400 to work better than a 600, other factors must be involved. Heat? Humidity? Air Flow?

ha i dont know if thats a compliment or what but thanks anyways but in the book the trees are killed so i guess either way its just the fate of the plants

Things are going good. Tomorrow we start the 12/12 on the clone1 for sexing, fingers crossed. Other than that nothing really new everything is looking good. Tied down the other tops today to get more light down in the plant. There were a bunch of dead leaves down at the bottom, most were old but some died from being to crowded. Any suggestions so far? heres some pictures

Whats up nozzleboy. May i say the ladies are looking great. Whatever your doing keep it up because they look great.

Good Evening Ladies and Gents, welcome to another update of my passion for marijuana. Tonight I flushed the ladies and all is looking good. I have a clone on the 12/12 cycle for sexing hopefully soon Ill see some pistils. After I tied the new tops on the plants the fan for the room seemed to blow too hard and damaged some of the leaves on the plants. Ive changed the direction in which it blows now to keep this from happening. My guess is at this rate Ill start flowering in late november. Heres some pictures.

just wanted to say your babys are looking great it gives me some to to up to keep up the good job

 

[THE BROTHER'S GRUNT]

Looking good man. Did you have a nute or heat problem? I see some of your leaves look like they are burned.

 

[nozzleboy]

Well some of the leaves are burnt from when Ive been away and the plant grows right into the light. And I think some of them were damaged from the fan blowing too hard right on them. We are working on the ventilation right now because once we get the hps itll be a whole other ball game. The problem is its an apartment so were not sure how were gonna figure it out.

 

[Tonto]

I can't see any of the pictures it says
page cannot be displayed"

 

[nozzleboy]

Hrmm thats strange the links work for me. Is anyone else having this problem? Try coping and pasting the link and see if that works.

 

[Tonto]

I tried that too, and nothing works.

Alright its been a little bit since the last update. Over all things are good. The clone that has been on the 12/12 schedule is starting to show what I believe will be future buds. Ive got 2 more clones going also hopefully these take hold. And on the main plants everything is going good. Just tied down more branches to let some light shine in there and get some air circulation. But I did find out that we are a bit on the acidic side of the ph scale and might have a bit of nitrogen surplus. Any suggestions on what I should do? I think Im gonna flush them again soon. Other than that everything looks good. Should be ordering a 400w hps within this coming up month. Just need to figure out ventilation. Heres some pictures

Whats up nozzleboy. Man your ladies are getting very bushy and looking great. Man when you get your HPS and put them young ladies under it they are gonna blow up on ya. Your doing a great job keep it up.

 

[nozzleboy]

Back again, Thanks for everyone who has commented and left advise, I greatly appreciate it. So things are looking good as the vegetative stage comes to an end in the up coming weeks. Havent given them nutes in a while so Ill do that today when I water them. I trimmed some branches off as suggested. Got some clones going also, that will be given to some friends. One of my friends will be putting them into his hydro set up, cant wait to see how that turns up. I think next grow/experiment will be hydro/aero. Im still waiting on my clone from Telperion to show some growth so I can sex it and make sure that my biggest plant isnt a male. The clone from Laurelin thats been on the 12/12 schedule is looking good, some nice pistils showing. Cant wait to see some nice buds. Since Ill be getting an hps soon and heat might be a problem Im thinking instead of a 400w HPS how about a 250w HPS? What do you guys think? Well it be enough for my to big mommas? Ill leave you with some pics.

Whats up nozzleboy. Isn't it funny how fast they grow once they get started. Man your ladies are looking great. Whatever your doing keep it up because your ladies are gonna love ya for it and they will show ya in the end in the form of some fat frosty buds.

 

[nozzleboy]

Thanks TBG yea its seems crazy that not too long ago they were just seeds. **** one of them I found in some super dank at bonnaroo this past year and now Ive got my own plant from it. I cant wait till harvest. Now I just need to figure out what to do about the hps.
