First Grow-400w hydro OG KUSH

[PURPLE_TREES]

Hey all! Ive been reading up on everyone else's grow journals and decided to make my own

So its my first grow and i got a ebb and flow kit from the local hydro store. I am already in Day 27 of flower but figured someone could get some entertainment or use out of it(My next grow I will definately keep a log from start to finish)

I vegged for around one month, a little too long because I was misled by one of my buddies

I ran into some serious space problems and crammed in wayyyy too many plants in a small area so i had to start some minimal training( had no idea they would ever get this big, but hey, you live and learn.)

I currently have 13 big females in my closet. I recently added some lower fluro lights and a 10.0 uvb reptisun bulb to get them trichs goin. Let me know what you guys think! Questions, comments, criticisms. Go for it!

quick question: how many times should i be flooding and draining per day? right now im doing 3 times. lights on, mid of cycle, just before lights go off..

The plants are rooted deep in the coco mat and im hoping the roots arent drying out..
Thanks GC!

Hopefully this update will get something goin on around here... ive gotten one reply..well ok, people will come around when i harvest

The nugs have fattened up slightly since the last update but the main change is the amount of trichonomes!

heres some more pics-
1,2-close ups

since i have only got 1 single reply..Maybe some problems will spice things up a bit in here!
Newest Problems:
-1 plant hermied on me! So i had to rip it out! the wet weight was over 40 grams. But all Premature trichs as it is still around day 40 of flower!
-More bad news- Was checking for others and found a couple other male pollen sacks on my other biggest plant...But i was just thinking about starting the flush and just harvesting it all early.. And does anyone know how long the pollen sacs take to open?


-So, should i just harvest early to prevent any fertilized females? I really dont want to ruin this whole crop with seeds...

ANY HELP OR INPUT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!
Thanks!

Great looking setup dude.

Don't freak out- get some Reverse and Penetrator from Dutch Master.

Check out Help_Needed's thread for personal real-time usage of the stuff for hermi's. He says it's the bomb and the male flowers stopped the second he started using it He was prepared to chop the plant and cut two down before it. Now he wishes he didn't, so don't freak out- there is a solution.

Nice setup, those plants look to be enjoying life!

Eleven357-thanks for the compliment..i tried. i cant wait til my second grow!

Mr.Goodstuff-thanks for the tips. ill deff be checking out that stuff to try and stop those damn pods from popping!
You have given me some hope! the last 2 days have been killing me. Ive been so sad a couple of my pretty ladies got dicks!

Ill try it out and let you know how it goes! Ill post some pics soon. thanks for the replies!

I only chopped down one plant. The dog ate the other two when they were babies, remember? .

And the males didn't exactly stop the second I sprayed them. It took about 24 hours for them to die and fall off heh.

But yeah, that stuff is awesome. I highly recommend it.

HELP NEEDED- so what is the exact name of the stuff you used? i want these things gone! i caught them very early tho luckily. I just cut down 1 of my 12 plants so I am not to worried about that

[Help_Needed]

It's called Reverse and it's made by Dutch Master.

[PURPLE_TREES]

did you use the penetrator too? is it necessary?
