1200w grow. Green Crack, C99, Girl Scout Cookies.

Welcome one, welcome all and welcome to my latest project.
I shall be runnin 2 versions of the highly rated Green Crack, one from cali connect and the other from Humboldt.
The other two girls are c99 and a Girl Scout Cookie. They are all being grown in 50L ice buckets and the medium is 65% soil, 35% perlite.
I had some horrible problems early on and as a result my girls were stunted by 4-5weeks but I just flushed and flushed since then and 3 out of 4 finally picked up.
They are now 10weeks old and shall commence flowering in 6 days.
So far, due to the problems, I have fed nothing but alg-a-mic.
For flowering, I shall be using Advanced Nutrients Jungle Juice Bloom, carboload, voodoo juice, b-52, Big Bud, bio-biz Topmax, Canna p/k and Canna Flush.
The girls are currently under a 600w hps and shall stay like that untill either wk1 or 2 of 12/12 after which a second 600 shall be added.
I might add a scrog net but am still undecided as to whether I will do this.
They have a 5inch intake and a 6inch outtake connected to a carbon filter. The temps are steady between 24-26.8c with the one light and expect a slight increase when the second is added but due to the english weather right now, I dont think the increase would be a problem.

So, please join me over the next 11wks and see what these girls do.

I shall do pic updates once a week, any questions or input (good or bad) is welcome.

So I missed last week but got sum pics today. Added a net last week n also begun their feeding regime.
They are now 6 days into 12/12 and already begun.

 

A few more pics taken this morning.

 

Day 13 12/12. Things are going good and the girls are some what stretching. Will feed in the morning

 

Just fed the girls and accidentally broke one of the green cracks tops, but thankfully, there are so many its hard to notice.
I did some further filling of the screen and things seem to be going good. Have had great temps now winter has kicked in and the girls seem ready to begin their explosions any time soon :-D.

 

So, I have just found a 15w led panel and 2x20w t4 fluoriscent light strips. I'm thinking I will add them in the tent when it comes on however, I have reservations about the led panel. Will add pics of it in a sec.

 

Does anybody know if the led is useful?

 

Thanks and more than happy to have you, (been getting a bit lonely in here).
Im excited to see what happens also.
B-)

 

Had a little big dilemma tonight. My big ass 8inch rhino filter decided to dislodge itself and go hurling down SMACK on one of the green cracks. However, the scrog net seems like it is an unlikely hero in this event as it broke the fall of the filter and saved my girl. Obviously, she worse slightly shaken up but nothing broke.
And to think, before this, I was going to remove it as mobility within the tent is minimal with the net but fuck mobility, the net saved my girl.

 

Great to have you.
Ill take some pics in the morning before they go to sleep. Hopefully she would have perked back up by then.

 

Yhh, it massive, only managed to read a few pages but looking good.

 

Ok, so its day 15, the girls are still going strong and the traumatised green crack has perked bk up. Usually, at this time, they usually seem lethargic n droopy but they are super perked right now.
First off is pics of thr traumatised crack then the rest.

 

Here they are.
