First Grow: Bubble buckets, multiple strains w/ pics

So trying out growing for the first time started out with 1 clone of Oreo (Durban Poison x SS) in a 5 gallon DWC bucket in a 5.5 inch net pot under a 5500K, 10,500 lux, 156 watt fluorescent array. I am using advanced nutrients sensigrow, tarantula, sensizym, botanicare zho, sweet, liquid karma, canna rhizotonic and sm-90 I also added AN voodoo juice in the last few days, also I use distilled water. She has been in veg for about 3 weeks now on 24/0, she keeps a bit of nutrient burn but overall is growing like crazy. Here are some pics:
When I first put her in the ground:

Day 1:

Day 2:

Day 3:

Day 3 again:

Day 4:

Day 8: also when I first get my ph and tds meters on day 7 and realize I need distilled b/c my tap is 430ppm and 8 pH, corrected these issues and you can see the plant respond.

Day 9:

Day 9 again:

Lemme know what you guys think.

 

So I got a 1000 W HPS and moved the girl under there since I want to free up the other lights for some other projects and I want to start her flowering soon anyway and will as soon as my tent arrives. Here are some more pics to show how she is doing, I cut 10 clones off of her between these two days and 5 more right after the day 21 pic, so here we go:
Day 25:

Day 25 a little closer:

Day 25 root porn couldn't fit it all in one pic, sorry bout the lighting tho looks kinda bad





Day 26 she seems to have stretched a bit in the last day, must be missing that blue spectrum :


Hope you guys enjoy.

 

So I should probably make this thread actually live up to its name and add another strain, so I am gonna post up some pics of my perplex lady, she had a little trouble at the start as she was about to flower when I got her from the club and showed signs the next day, but after 3 weeks of 24/0 she seems to be revegging and turning into a serious bush:
1 day. preflowers that appeared(sorry my cam sucks )

Day 10:

Day 11:

Day 12:


More to come soon and I am germinating 6 black nelli(black thai x willie nelson) beans, 3 have broken ground so far, should be some bomb old school sativa, but a pain to flower as based on the parents it looks like it should be in the 13 week+ range, hope its worth it , also germinating 3 bag seed and trying to get a chem D clone going.

 

Just finished assembling my new 3'x3'x6'6" grow tent, so will be switching the Oreo to 12/12 today, seedlings are coming along nicely 3 of the Black Nelli's have broken ground and one is forming its second set of true leaves already and the others have germinated, no germination yet from any of the bagseed , will try to post up pics when I get off work.

 

So finally got a chance to post up some pics:
Oreo Day 29 pics, got tent and changed to 12/12:

Thanks man, doing my best and learning as I go hopefully I will get some nice bud out of it as well.

I had an Iguana growing up and have always liked them and reptiles in general. Sorry to hear about yours dying, that is always rough. As far as a new one goes, if you can't find one local I have had good luck with lllreptile.com in general and have heard they do a good job of shipping live reptiles if you wanted to try them out.

 

So I open the tent today just after lights on and what do I see? Preflowers on the Oreo after only its second dark cycle of its life, looks like she was ready to go .

 

Thanks man, checked out your journal, that is one crazy SoG you are gonna have, can't wait to see how it turns out

 

Thanks man, an honor to have you check out my journal , learned alot from your journals, probably gonna try out that bubble cloner soon, since my clones aren't doing as well as I would like with the traditional method.

 

And a little update from the flower closet:

I think I vegged the oreo a bit too much, it is eating my flower room, it is a monster, pics later.
