Super Sour Og {lst+FIM} Hydro 600w hps+ t5 grow lights

So this is my second grow journal, however my first one was a bit bare on updates and I never showed the final product. but this time around I'll try and document everything the best I can and post a pics often. Without further adieu, SSOG grow journal:

Setup:
Bubble buckets!
Two 4" air stones
T5 grow light
Lucas 2 part (micro+bloom) formula + Cal/mag
600w hps flower light
Emerald triangles Super Sour Og: (Blueberry x Sour Diesel x OG Kush) x Lost Coast OG
...think that's all. I'll Edit later if I need to. Lol

Now, lets post a couple pictures of the set up and my dear baby Persephone (that's what my gf helped me name her. Lol)

Edit: android app keeps crashing when I try to post a pic, I'll have to wait till I'm near a computer.

We had some small problems in the beginning with a deficiency but was fixed with a bit of Cal/mag and acid. (Cal/mag always foams up and base's my water out. Was 6.7 the next morning after adding Cal/mag)

Lst? Yes. Lol what exactly are you asking? The t5's I'm using are 2'x3' I think cost about 80 from my local hydro store. I like em cause its a lot of light and doesn't run too hot.

Sorry I was pretty baked...shes gunna be a big girl...

Damn looking good man is that have a drip ring setup with the lst...my baby sprouted up today and is already thriving...

Nope. Just a bubble bucket made from rummples design. Only water is all about an inch below my plant.

Gonna start a journal??

Not for the ssog I already have a grow journal but in absolute beginners...if enough people look at it I may add on with my tbm journal...

Nice grow buddy. How is your grow tent set up??

Thanks..I did it on the super cheap so its a garment closet with cfls and a 17gal tub but I plan on moving it to my attic once I get my hps in...my ssog looks like it might have some stretching. As my lights are higher than normal due to my tbm...oh well it should be good...I'm considering lsting the ssog like yours cause my attic only has about a 4ft clearance..

I would def recommend lsting her. Specially since she'll stretch, there will be more room to have your leaves getting as much light as possible

Looking good sofar man, very healthy green and plenty of tops. You going to give it a trim at all? Or you going to wait till a few weeks into flower? Im actualy growing Dr.Grinspoon atm and its a super crazy leggy plant, very sparce. I cant imagine what it will be like in the flower stage... 95-100 days. LST and Topping is the only way i can keep it under wraps. Not much info on Grinspoon, i think people shy away from it because of its very low yield, but im in it for the Top shelf bud, Quality over Quanity i always say so i strive for that. And no, no journal

DAMN!! I WAS JUST ABOUT TO ASK ABOUT JOURNAL! ! grr, I would have really loved to see how it grew. Yeah, I saw it, was interested, but shyed away. Do you have any pictures of her at all to share?
And I'm still undecided on trimming her up. I'll most likely give in around flowering time though. Lol
