Growlogg 400w MH updates

Hello , I am a former overgrow member , this is my first grow since the take over. Please excuse my lack of posts and karma , i'de love to hear constructive criticism.

We will be vegging with a 400watt metal halide hooked up with a switchable ballast for flowering. The growbox dimensions are 4 by 4 lined with mylar (not flat) , but our hood can support a 3 by 4 space. This will allow us a foot or so to maintain the grow box. For exhaust , we are useing a squirrel fan with a 6 inch Exhaust hole, Our intake is passive running through the bottom of the box outside . So far our temperatures range in the low 70's to low 80's , although it has been quite cool the last few nights. We also Plan to install a stationary fan inside the box to push some air around.

So , the strains in which we are growing are :
2 Sativa Spirit - paradise seed bank
3 Medicine Man - Mr Nice guy seed bank
2 Fruitbowl - sunshine seed co.
1 Bagseed (found)

The soil prepared is Fox Farms Ocean forest , i've added Bat Guano 10-2-1, and Rainbow mix grow 5-5-2( derived from guano ,bone meal , sea kelp, etc.) (100 % Organic Grow)
So far all of the seeds have been started in Cups labeled in permanent marker untill preflowers to seperate the males. We Hope to have a total of 8 Females which we will Top and Tie as needed to keep level and maximize Grow space. The use of a screen to Scrog will be decided on at a later time.

All of our selected strains finish around 8-9 weeks flowering time , The Haze on the other hand is expected to finish around 10- 14 weeks , if female.
We have grown only the fruitbowl previously outdoors , the buds looked like pure dro!!. We are hopeing for good results on mainly the sativa spirit and the medicine man seeds as they are the expensive stabalized strains we purchased. I recently added the fruitbowl so if you count the cups they don't add up. Lemmi know what you guys think , i'll post some pics of our earlier outdoor grows as well , somebody remind me what's good spaceing for a 400 watt metal halide? 3 feet or so?

any comments suggestions please post, Ide love to hear from the grasscity community!

I'm not sure if the Haze is gonna make it , had to help it pop the seed caseing off. I started another fruitbowl in her replacement , just incase she does'nt make it. Pics soon , 4 of 12 are up and showing first node after cotyledons. The times we germenated them stagger off so they won't be showing at the same time. updates soon!

hey i don't think there's much to worry about that Haze. i must have had to pop the seed casing off like 3 of my seedlings and they all did fine...notice one of the earlier pics of my hashberry has a little hole on one of the cotyledons but its doing great now i think lol...by the way, i'm kinda interested in growing bubbleberry in the future...how much did it yield and the smell/taste when you cured it? lemme know...thanks bro!!

Aye , I did see the hole in the cotyledons , I think the Haze might just make it , half of it's cap is on the ground the other half is still connected, but it's standing on it's own now and it's not resting on the ground As for the bubbleberry to this day that was probably the best smoke i've ever tasted. We had quite a few bubbleberry plants to begin with but alot of them started to revegg due to us being unexperianced. The ones that continued to flower , we harvested no less than a Half (dried) on each and no more than 30grams or so. We grew the plants at the very end of the SHORTEST growing season possible so , they are nowhere near thier potential. Once it was dried and cured it had a VERY nice potent heavy flavor of fruits. I miss my bubbleberry heh

Update Pictures

Hey everyone , here are the updates!! I took the pictures in the dark but they came out great. Unfortunatly , 3 of the medicine man seeds did not live , one that did not germinate at all. Also , the only Haze seed died off shortly after it looked to be makeing progress. On the bright side , I found a bagseed growing in front of my friends house =) so we put her in some foxfarms and she looks to be rooting nicely. The Sativa Spirit seeds have completely blown up , they are growing Very quickly. We also got a fan to push some air around and help keep things strong , everything looks to be great , tell me what you guys think.

In the Red cups the two on the right are sativa spirit , the back two and the gimpy one in the front are medicine man , the center and one to the left are fruitbowl. In the big pot to the right is the bagseed.
