1St Grow In beast Mode

Discussion in 'First Time Marijuana Growers' started by MARI-MEDS, Sep 16, 2014.

  1. Ok so I have struggled with starting a journal for numerous reasons and every time I think about it, my heart starts to race with excitement 😬 None the less, I have been worked up to the point that it is "a must"! Therefore I can share all this contained excitement! If ur like me and ur new to growing, this has to be the funnest, most exiting and addicting thing "EVER"!

    This is technically not my first grow but it is and I know that doesn't make since. Let me explain! I started 2 bag seeds (one I broke in half 😢 and the other turned to be a male after all kinds up things that went wrong, which has later helped me with this grow 😉)and did not take it as seriously as I am now! Lessoned learned and I'm so pumped and full of knowledge now! I have been growing veggies for a while now but not MJ and I'm so excited to get my "BUD ON" 👍😜💪😉

    So let's load a bowl or roll one, let's toc it and enjoy this "BEAST MODE" grow! 🌱🌴🌳

    Let's take in mind that I love to read, do my research and put it to action! So with that said, I will break down my journal by entries. I will label them by it's appropriate relatively.

    ORDERED SEEDS:
    -attitude seeds ( 1st was ceased 😞but 2 made it 9 days later 👍😄)
    -11 seeds (707 head band, white widow, amnesia haze, sugar black rose, ice grapefruit, master kush, belladonna, power plant, OG kush, EWE-2, and lemon kush headband) and I only germinated the first 6.

    GIVEN 9 SEEDS: (lucky me 👍👌)
    -girlfriends friend gave me 9 seeds from husbands stash and they end up being "Beast's"! (Germinated 6 but only 4 made it 😢)


    BUILT INITAL SET UP:
    - home made grow box(s) from a PC and one from aluminum foil and cardboard box with some gorilla tape. ( will post pics later but they looked pretty good)

    VEG ROOM SET UP:
    -turned a closet into a pretty cool looking set up.
    -shit load of CFl's(like 350 watts with combined fluorescents)
    -4 fans cuz it's HOT in there 😥( two on top blowing on lights and two on bottom blowing on plants)

    A blunt a day keeps the doctors away!
     
  3. looks good! you going to be using cfl all grow?
     
  4. Thx man, I've been doing my homework.. Yes sir I think I may have too. But who knows, I'm pretty indecisive sometimes and may choose to do HPS instead. I'm def gonna be keeping everyone up to date. Thx again.

    Stay medicated...
     
  5. Nice man, I'll follow along :) 
     
  6. Thx bro as I will continue too follow ur lill babies as well. As U know, it's always good to share the "wealth" and get fees back so we all know we are staying on the right track and learning from one another. Keep it real bro! And keep me posted on how ur girls are doing!

    Stay medicated!
     
  7.  
    I will do man. I really dont know what im doing wrong with 2 of my babies, they just seem to be doing nothing while the other 2 are growing fast. Definetly need to update pics so i can get some feedback
     
  8. Great job, your grow is looking good!
     
  9. Thx dude, it's been a fun ride thus far 👍😄 Can't wait till they flower 👌
     
  10. It is a fun journey but i just cant seem to please all 4 of my babies. Sooner i get this problem solved, the better:D!
     
  11. Just like woman, can't please them all. lol
     
  12. haha brilliant. So true ;D 
     
    But all your babies are similar sizes.. When mines are totally different sizes for being basically the same age. Confused.com
     
  13. Do U have any cal-mag? Just asking cuz I know that cal-mag deficiencies are very common when growing MJ. If u don't have any, u may wanna pick some up 👍😉
     
  14. I would for the veg phase for sure way cheaper than running a MH and the heat too. A nice HPS added during flower is always nice tho.

    Whoa whoa whoa!  I don't recommend just adding cal-mag nilly willy.   This won't solve anything.   Scottish Deano, if you send me a message, I'd be more than happy to help you troubleshoot your issues - or post about it in the newbies section.
     
    Just an FYI, guys, even if your plant IS calcium/magnesium deficient, adding cal-mag may not be the answer.   If you're using an adequate nutrient program, you shouldn't need to supplement with cal-mag.   More than likely, your pH is off, which will block the uptake of the existing nutrients, causing a deficiency.   This is why I always recommend using a complete nutrient.  I prefer General Hydroponics Maxi series, personally.
     
    Note, I do not see any signs of problems or deficiencies on the grow that this post is about.  There's no need to do anything different right now, because it's looking great!
     
  16. Totally agree. 👍😄
     
  17. nah I dont have any cal-mag bro. 
     
     
    Okay man. I see where your coming from. Later on tonight i will upload pics of all 4 of my babies. then we can have a debate to find out the cause. Very confused because 2 are growing fantastic while the other 2 seem to be struggling (bearing in mind, they were great to start with then went down hill) 
     
  18. Sounds like all my past relationships. Haha, 😜
