Whats up people. First grow joirnal. I started my girls up Feb 22nd. And started to flower march 31st. My space is 4x4x5 indoor 400w cooltube MH & HPS bulbs Fox farm grow big & big bloom used Fox farm ocean forest soil Strains are nirvana fem blackjack and white widow. As of right now they are about 6 days into flower. I have topped, and LST them. I have also been defoliating them at about 20% at a time to remove unwanted or discolored fan leaves. Ill post up some pix.hope you alll enjoy. Thanks. Ill update as much as i can! Peace.
March 25th seems to like the LST Before any defoliation March 25th This was march 21 after i tied them down. Before defoliation March 25th
March 31st after defoliation March 31st with HPS This was today April 5th before the lights came on. Side shot. Its worth mentioning that the WW is on the left and the BJ is on the right
Sorry for the shitty pix. My camera phone (note 4) took amazing pictures untill i basically destroyed the camara lens glass and messed up the lens. If quality is really bad just lemme know. Ill use the GoPro for future pix when possible.
Looking good. How tall and how long did you veg. Sent from my ALCATEL ONE TOUCH Fierce using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Thanks Cjcsr, they were vegged for a little over a month. Ive read they blow up in flower so i didnt want to take a chance as my light takes up about a foot or so of space. (Cooltube size + distance to plant) The WW measures to 22" from top of the soil to top of the plant. BJ stands at about 19 I read sativas stretch more, and they sometimes even triple in height.
Sounds great! That's about how tall my ladies are, I topped every branch twice for beautiful bush, more yeild. Good luck and happy growing. Sent from my ALCATEL ONE TOUCH Fierce using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Sweet! Arent the tops just beautiful? i tried topping and was worried i may have fimmed some as well on accident. I did not expect so many tops butni guess no harm done. Do you have any pics of your ladies?
Not yet will get some up soon. Sent from my ALCATEL ONE TOUCH Fierce using Grasscity Forum mobile app
Thanks grow green ill keep it updated. Any idea if i should keep the fan on them running all the time, Or only when in light phase. Thanks
i have mine running all the time and try to have them not blowing directly on the plants but above them and at the walls.
Gotcha. I put my fan on the outside of the tent by the lower vents so it pushes the air up from under the plants and out through the top so its always cycling in fresh cool air. Think that could cause the BJ to POSSIBLY get some nice blue/black spots?
that sounds like a good plan, you always like to have the leaves rustling a little bit. black spots? dunno, strain specific maybe
Well i wanted to say blue spots but blackjack has black domina in it so maybe its possible. We shall see
No problem brother. My phone went crazy for a minute but its all good now. im pretty new here myself. Cheers!
