Hi people its not my first grow ,but ive ben lurking here for a couple years,,,,ive just started a grow with 3 femmed Mango ,,,i like to grow very cheaply ,so heres the pics the second picture is a a mango that got triple leaves/stems ,so just want to see what that turns out like..I grow in compost from the garden centre(cheap again) and feed in veg with a basic 3.5 N 3.5P ,3.5K...in flowing i use a tomato feed ,,,i get good results ,,and could probably do better with the better feeds out there for growing cannabis,,,but i grow cheap just for me and fun,,,,,,,,,mac sorry about pictures cheap antciant cell phone
i grow under a 125w cfl in veg plus sun if it out and shining,and for flowering under 250w son T,,,,,,,,,,,mac
picture of my last grow Iranian Indica both phenos showing,,,but the plant on the left is the usual pheno,,,mac
just a quick weekly update of my mango plants and the triple leaf plant all doing well under first 125w cfl now under 250w sunmaster lamp with more blue spectrum for the rest of veg,,,,,mac ps forgot to say fed them to day with a feed of all purpose feed of 3.5N 3.5P 3.5 K
a weekly update ive pinched the tops out and potted up,, temps daytime 76-78f ,,,night time 66-69f,,mac
all three plants have shown white hairs ,so all female ,,,,,mind they are fem seed ,,but some times things dont work out and a hermie can pop up ,,,but every things fine so far ,,,,,,mac
this morning ive taken a few leaves off from the inside of the plants to open the inside buds up to the light,,,,,,mac
They look very good Mac! I can't wait until I have my plants are looking like that! Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
------------- --------- just take your time ,and have patience ,,,be careful in watering and feeding,,,its not magic,,,if i can get buds on the cheap so can any one,,,that don't mean you have to use cheap nutes if you can afford the dearer nutes go for it and try them,,,,but i am not complaining about the nutes i use ,,,i get a smoke for free (well nearly) mac
I will most definitely be careful! And yeah man that is awesome that you pretty much smoke for free! Thanks for the encouragement! Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
hi jmq21 if your just growing for your self using 250w lamp like i do even the electric holds no fear of a big bill ,i dont really notice any difference in my electric bill ,,but then i am all electric....,mac
i ,meant to say now they are in flowering i run a dehumidifier when i first put the lights on in the morning for a couple hours and then again in the afternoon i turn it on again an hour before i turn light off till the lights cool down about after lights out,,,,,,mac
Man they look awesome!! And yeah I'm all electric! I read using a dehumidifier in flowering makes bud more potent!! I'll probably so the same!! Not to mention it decreases your chance of mold!! Good job man!! Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
--------------- -------------- hi jmq21,,,well i dont know about making buds stronger never heard that one before ,but there's lots of urban myths,dont believe every thing you read or hear from the web sites,,,,but yea it helps keep bud rot down etc,,,dont leave the dehumidifier on to long as it will dry your plants out,,unless you get a bigger dehumidifier one where you can set the humidity ,peace,mac
