1st indoor grow

nozzleboy · Aug 20, 2006

Alright so after growing out door many times and only being successful once due to mothernature claiming the others, Im goin indoors. Im starting them off with fluros and ill buy a 400w hps system for flowering. Im growing 3 plants of 3 different kinds of bud that I collected 1 some super dank that i bought from Bonnaroo. 2 Bubble kush that my buddy got me from over in cali 3 some random really dank bud i got here in town. I was worried about them at first because they seemed to be growing slowly but now they look alright In the pictures the 2 biggest are about a week old and the the other just sprouted a day or two ago. Thats it for now ill be updating as it goes along if any one has any suggestions let me know.

What kind of soil?? Look forward to following your grow...

nozzleboy · Aug 20, 2006

I believe the soil is called jungle growth it has very little to none ferts. and came with perlite and vermiculite as well as other goodies so it seemed like some good stuff thanks for the intrest

Your babies are looking nice and healthy. I will be following your grow to the end and look foward to seeing some nice buds.

Darth BongWongDong · Aug 21, 2006

very nice and healthy..keep us posted, if they all turn female, im not sure if 400 will work very well, im thinking a 1000, do some research, cuz you gonna have some kick azz stuff there and will be worth it in end

Alright so I went to water the kids today and noticed that the middle one has some yellowing spots on the leaves. My guess is it needs some nutes so Im gonna go to the store today and get some. From what I read I should be getting something high in nitrogen and potassium. I took pictures but cant load them here so ill be posting the pictures later tonight

nozzleboy · Aug 22, 2006

Ok heres the pictures

What do you guys think it is? It looks like the big one also might have some yellowing. I read in the nutrient sticky in the indoor section that "Older leaves mottle and yellow between veins" when there is a deficiency in potassium. Let me know what yall think

Alright havent updated in a while so here we go. Things were going good till this weekend. It was labor day weekend and I went out of town so I wasnt able to take care of the girls for a couple days. Thought it would be alright. Bad news first the little one dried up and died http://www.peoplesrevolt.com/upload/files/42/100_0513.JPG. The other 2 are alright they looked liked they needed water when i first got there but they look better now . But they grew more than I expected them to while I was gone and got too close to the bulbs so some leaves got kinda burnt. They should be alright now though. I started LST today. They are starting to smell , which is nice but im gonna have to start some odor control soon. http://www.peoplesrevolt.com/upload/files/42/100_0507.JPG http://www.peoplesrevolt.com/upload/files/42/100_0509.JPG http://www.peoplesrevolt.com/upload/files/42/100_0510.JPG http://www.peoplesrevolt.com/upload/files/42/100_0511.JPG http://www.peoplesrevolt.com/upload/files/42/100_0512.JPG

Other than the bit of burn your babies are looking great. They do grow up fast just like kids. Keep it up and your babies will be full of buds before ya no it. Great job man.

nozzleboy · Sep 17, 2006

Another update so i guess the LST'ing is going good Ive tied down the top and now the branches on the side are growing straight up so it looks like ive got multiple tops from just one tie down. When ive seen other grows its usually one new top for every top you tie down. So am I supposed to just let all the tops grow or just concentrate on one growing. Ive been trimming some of the fan leaves to let the lower branches tryin to become tops get some light. There is some purple showing in the branches so I guess I have a phosphorus deficiency. So to help I got some nutrients high in P. Whats a good way to sterilize tap water I theres something in it like cholrine or something thats starting to get the plants. Also ive started some clones One of each to see how the come out. Heres to them. Well enough blabbing heres the pictures. Let me know if the size of the pics is too big for future updates.

Your young ladies are looking great. Nice and bushy. You shouldn't trim off any fan leaves if anything just move them out of the way or tie them down as well. Trimming off fan leaves does more harm to the plant than good. Remember plants use those fan leaves to draw in energy. As far as getting your water sterile. Just let it sit out in a jug overnight and all the impurities will evaporate in the water and you will be good to go.

Tonto · Sep 18, 2006

Watch your clones closely.....I have mine in a tupperware box for humidity.... my first ones I did like you are and they died overnight... it also looks like you could stand to give your plants more water at feedings and space them out..... I give mine about 1/3 the capacity of the container they are in of water....and don't give them more until it's nearly dry, about 3 days. They like that much more than the other cycle I was doing.... plants look good though, best of luck in the whole process, I'll be watching!

nozzleboy · Sep 22, 2006

Another day an another dollar heres more to gawk at clones seem to be doin alright i plan on using them to determine sex and hopefully all goes well (knock on wood) and if they are females ill be getting more clones and maybe growing them at another location. I must say I am happy with using cfls. I was kind of doubtful at first but now see that they work great. Should be using an hps around winter. Well heres the trees of valinor

THE BROTHER'S GRUNT · Sep 23, 2006

The babies are looking great. Keep it up man.

Tonto · Sep 23, 2006

Yeah, everything is looking good. You never had the cloned in an enclosed area? I tried that once, and they wilted and died almost immediately....but at that point I didn't use any rooting hormone.
Keep up the good work!

nozzleboy · Sep 23, 2006

yea actually one of them looked like they died but i gave it some water anyways with hope and when i looked the next day there it was looks a little damaged but its back it was propped back up. I guess the hormone works pretty good. Now I just wait for them to grow. Ill raise my glass to that.

Tonto · Sep 23, 2006

Right? Cheers!

nozzleboy · Sep 25, 2006

So here they are finally got them some phosphorus so that should help that purple stem problem theyve been having. Other then that theyve been doing pretty well. Soon ill be tieing down some of the new tops. The fan in the room sure helps make the stems thick. Heres some new shots

and just for memories i found a pic of last years grow, she was taller than me (6 feet) and i had just found out that she was female the day this pic was taken. The next day a hurricane went up the coast and flooded this area with 3 feet of water. RIP http://www.peoplesrevolt.com/upload/files/42/7_9_05.JPG

Your babies are looking great NB. Nice and bushy just how i like them. Keep it up man.

AeroTX · Sep 25, 2006

They look great, man. Brothers, why is I heard it was ok to trim as long as you don't trim off all 7 leaves and as long as it isn't a frequent practice. I read that it stimulates growth. Is this wrong? Another thing, I use a 400 watter and she works GREAT. I am having much better results than when I had my 600. I guess it depends on the space you are working with.
