Hawaiian Snow - T5 / HPS

Carolina.toker · #1 (**permalink**) 02-23-2009, 11:06 PM

Hi all this is my first grow... been going good so far. I'm planning on growing the mother plant first then taking cuttings for clones. once i select the best clones i will grow two clones in 7 gallon bags. this is a closet grow that is starting out under a 216w T5 (6500k). Then going to HPS for a scrog shortly after.

Plans - growing a mother plant first then cloning.
Style of grow - scrog
strain - Hawaiian snow GHS
soil - fox farm ocean forest
ferts - fox farm grow big and big bloom.
lights - 216w 4 bulb t5 and a 400w HPS in a cool tube.

All comments are welcome as this is my first grow. Any advice would be great!

Humidity has stayed around 40% through most of this grow. I've tried raising the humidity with a humidifier, but this only raised the humidity about 5-10% usually staying at 45% when on. Temps have been around 79*F. I have been running my light schedule at 24/0. The lighting schedule starting tomorrow (3 weeks of veg) will be changed to 18/6.

Day 2

Day 5

Day 8

Day 9

Day 11 - Leaves have progressively gotten worse. Could this have been a possible salt build up at day 11? I flushed the plant and clipped the dead spots.

Day 13 - as you can see the two bad leaves are clipped down .... however new smaller spots are showing. ph = 6.2

Day 18 - Watered for the first time with nutes. 1/2 dose fox farm grow big. Run off ph = 6.8

The plant has show some more growth today. I finally switched the light schedule to 18/6 almost seems as if it makes the plant stretch more on this light schedule.

Also if you will notice the nute burn (that is what I'm guessing it is). I started giving it grow big at 2 1/2 weeks 1/2 recommended dose. I reduced the dose to 1/4 strength the second watering after some light burning.

The third picture is two mutant leaf sets that have been growing for a few days where the sprout leafs were. Hopefully this doesn't become a normal thing with this plant.

nute burn?

mutant leafs

I watered the plants with a set pH balanced water. No nutes this time. I will start feeding it again next week at 1/4 recommended dose. run off was at 6.6. In the second picture you can see where i topped the plant.

update:
good news- plant recovered from the topping.
bad news- looks like i have a nitrogen and a phosphorus deficiency

Good luck on the grow, greenhouse seeds are a very good choice, so far I am having very good success with them.
