White Widow by Widowmaker

[widowmaker]

I have 8 White Widow and 2 Skunk19xHaze growing in two 18 gallon DWC tubs. I am really looking foward to seeing the progress of these little guys. Hopefully I can get some input from you guys if something goes wrong. So far so good though, had the light a little to close at first, but everything is great now. Here is my setup.

Setup
400w hps, 150hps
Flora Nutes, Big bud, Carbo load
RO machine


Here are pics of my babys at 9 days old. The two skunk are in the bucket closest to the camera, and there is a little runt in the back that doesnt seem to want to grow , but maybe he will turn around:hubba:. I would love to here what you all have to say.

:holysheep: Very creative grow you have going on. I look forward to watching the progress of the babies.
Will be sending lots of positive energy and grow-power for the little one. :baby:
Maybe her big sister in the middle will give her a pep talk. Good luck to you and yours.

howdy, interesting grow Widowmaker,looks very productive! i love DIY set-ups. i pretty much knew nuttin when i got my ready-made kit. now i see you'all's DIY and feel like i cheated and wasted my money! but i got ideas for da future...thanks to MP! cant wait to see this progress.

Great stuff you have there my friend. I will be pulling up a chair and watching your progress. How far away is your light? I keep mine at about 12-13 inches from the tops with no problems. Keep us posted. Take care and be safe.

 

[widowmaker]

Thanks guys, well I had my light about 15 inches from the tops, until they started to curls a bit. So I pulled my light to about 2 feet to let them recover a bit and havent had a problem since. I have good ventilation, but I guess since the room is so small the heat from the light builds up quick. Im thinking about making a cool tube but will see how it goes from here.

 

[snuggles]

Not sure if you have already done this but put a fan in the room so it blows between the light and the plants. It will allow you to push the light closer, after the plants recover of course and it will strebgthen your plants which will aid in flower time. Strong stems can support big buds and I know you're gonna get some big buds....although I do own a cool tube and they are great, I have a 600 inches (maybe 3 in.) from the plants and I don't even have the ventilation hooked up at the moment LOL.

 

[benamucc]

Well WM...it's up to you now since mine are all but fried. What do you think of the suggestion to ax em, and start new??

 

[widowmaker]

Yea, i had a fan on them since the beginning, Stems are nice and sturdy already. I guess it was just to much for the little guys. The only 2 skunkxhaze that I have got a little burn on the tips, and only one of the widow got a little burn, but its really not that bad. Ill put the light closer in a couple of days. They responded really well to the nutes and are starting to take off already. Well benamucc, its really up to you. If I were you, I would wait and see if they turned around.

looks like there off to a fine start.

 

[widowmaker]

Just wanted to put some pics with the flash on, ive had my cam on automatic flash, and the pics kinda s ucked. Here is day 15 though.

 

[goneindawind]

look real good bro im hopein to do my next dwc like dat in rubber maid so cant wait to see how your grow goes plenty of green mojo for yo babies

 

[widowmaker]

Yea thanks,I hope I get some big buds, I dont see many grows with dwc multi plant setups all the way here. I kinda wanted to switch them into seperate 5 gallon buckets when I can tell the sex. But now that im thinking about it, ill just put all the females in a thirty gallon tub, and that should be alot easier for me. One rez, with 5 aquarium pump in it.

 

[widowmaker]

Here are my plants at day 20. The widows are about 6 to 10 inches, and the Skunkxhaze are growing freakishly fast, one is about 14 inches and the other one is almost a foot. I have got to say, this is really fun:hubba: These plants are growing so fast its insane:lama: I cant wait to see the flowers. What do you all think?

 

[FATBOY]

wow dude mine are in the middle of the 3rd week and mine are are just sprouting there 5 leaf nodes thats sweet man

 

[widowmaker]

Im falling in love with this method of growing. Its so easy to use, yet so effective. I would recommend this method to anyone who is looking for fast growing. Its like they doubled in size within a 5 day period. I cant wait to start flowering, I bet they are going to explode!

im lovin it....
