Week 8

OK got the 1000w MH up. didnt need a new reflector, I got the small bulb so it fit in the old reflector.
The exaust fan running while the lights are on did the trick alright,
stays at 84 degrees.

Raised the lights 6 inches, Did a full fush of the containers there was some crap in the bottoms.
Oh also got some bottled water instead of tap.
Our tap was 335 ppm the
bottled water was mountain spring at 230 ppm.
I found a place close to the house where they refill water containers for .35 a gallon.

The water I got from the machine was 30 ppm. Looks like I found our new water supply.

Week 8 pics
27 days into flower

Moved all four together under the MH, little crowded but best lighting.
Tilted the hps 4 inches more on the sides.

Went into week eight of Flora nutes full strength, for the flowering room 1100 ppm
and week 2 for the clones 800 ppm.

These Ladys are going to take a little longer to flower than Floras schedule so we are
going to double weeks 8 9 and 10

Sorry about the crappy pic, Next time I will bring my camera and get shots without
the HPS on, the buds are forming nicely.

Here is a shot of our first batch of clones, the one in the front may not make it.
we took the cuttings 4 weeks ago. Out of the 16 cuts we got five. Not too good.
We used root powder and superthrive we got 2 large and 3 small that rooted and are doing well.
We will need 3 more for the next cycle. Next time its Olivias rooting gel and nutrents.
I learned a lot this first time around and its been a lot of fun.

Started these guys on week 2 Flora nutes 800 ppm. ph 5.9 and put a small
fan on them to help dry out the rockwool . still need to make covers to stop
the alge and remove the plastic from the cubes.
