  4. flipping to 12/12 in just under 2 weeks. Cannalope Kush is almost 6 weeks old. 10 inches tall after lst. top is growing back up to 12 inches. going to lst again in a few days. Bag Seeds are 3.5 weeks old. 5-7 inches tall. i have confirmation that the pre-flower above is indeed a girl. she is the tallest and most eager of the bag seeds as well.
     
  5. How much was that LED you have?
     
  6. I'm going to subscrib.

    I am about to embark on the Age Old Grow. Applied yesterday, been searching reviews about it all day today. So far have found nothing.

    What do you think of it?

    HTG Supply - 7 Band 240w LED Grow Light

    ive only given 2 feedings (first at 1/4 strength and second at 1/2 strength) so i havent really seen results yet, but im optimistic with the high numbers. are you using more than just grow and bloom?

    Erbmon I put the information in this thread. It's about Age Old Organic.
    Well a bit more.
    molasses, humic and fulic acid, mycorrhizae, potassium, and little cal/mag if need.
    I hope to achieve an aggressive grow with co2

    I could only imagine how bright that led is. I just recieved my 180 watt from htg that i paid 260 for after shipping. Wish i would have had a few more bucks to get that one. I also have 110 watts of 2700 cfl runnin. I just hit a little over a week in flower on some plants that recieved a shit load of stress for a very long time and i think now are root bound, so i havent seen the full potential of the led yet but deff worth it........... I think it was the 180 i got.... How much was yours after shipping?

    Just went and looked. It is the 180 i got ..... Damn, 30 more dollars and coulda had 60 more watts.
     
  10. sounds like some tasty treats. im going to be looking for cal/mag deficiencies once i hit flower. i have read that is one downfall of this nute line. i will also be supplementing co2 in my tent (sugar amd yeast method). if anybody is trying to keep it organic, i dont believe that this company and these products are truly 100% organic, its just a name.

    it was $280 something. i just believe from reading a multitude of threads that LED's do not pump out what they say they are rated for (wattage). i dont have a kilowatt meter but HTG says 240w (80 x 3w diodes), my guess is anywhere from 120w-170w. I wonder if another 4 pack of CFL's will really help out later on in flower (bump 92w up to 184w)

    do you have a diary going? id like to see how your plants respond to the LED and CFL combo meal as your a few weeks ahead of me.
     
  11. my buddy moved his plants out of my tent and into his. i have the tent to myself so i rearranged things to neaten it up and try to make the canopy even. I tied down ms cannalope's top again to try and give light to the newest nodes. it looks like at least 5 of her branches have started growing up. cant wait until they start to stretch.

    the bagseed plant with the female pre-flowers that i posted above is going crazy with pistils. 3 nodes all have very noticeable pre-flowers on them. she is the only one out of the bunch. is this normal or a good sign?

    the purple nepal bagseed is looking more and more like a runt. it has been the smallest of the bagseeds from the get go and has made no effort to catch up. we'll see what happens in flower.

    1 more week till flower.

  12. 2 questions about pre-flowers...

    is this a male pre-flower?

    why does this plant have so many pistils? it is a bagseed from a long forgotten nug and it has been on 18/6 its whole life.


    //also an update on ms cannalope. i tied down the top once more this afternoon. i have been tucking and weaving the branches and fan leaves in order to get the most light penetration to the branches that i can. trimmed off some of the the leaves that were shaded and resting on the soil top.

  13. Don't see anything that looks male. I too notice my ladies get those pistols when the mature. Would wait at lest a few more days to flower, as they are still maturing. See how the nodes are stacked side by side? When they get larger they tend to off stack. Thats when I know I am ready to flower (12/12).

    Once you hit that stage, then you need to watch all of your plants for males/hermi.
     
  14. looks like there is another female in the bunch. this one is coming from mystery #2 bagseed (from post above).

  15. switched to 12/12 2 days ago. gave one of the bagseed plants to a friend to free up some space in the tent. feed 1/2 dose of bloom and 1/2 dose of grow nutrients with molasses today. 2 of the bagseeds and the cannalope kush have shown female pre-flowers. still nothing showing on the purple nepal bagseed.
