Default Mother's Finest - 3 Ways (1000W HPS, 400W HPS, 400W MH)
Time to start a new thread... I have been growing for about a year and I have learned a ton and there is still so much to learn.

For this thread I am planning to document the three Mother's Finest grows that are currently in progress.

The first setup is 8 plant Rainforest 66 under a 400W HPS.

The second setup is a 8 plant Waterfarm set up under a 1000W HPS.

The third setup is a 6 plant with some two main stem clones under a 400W MH.

I am using GH nutrients: Flora Nova Bloom, Liquid Kool Bloom, and FloraNectar. i am using CO2.

i hope you enjoy the thread

These girls have been through a lot...

Spider mites hit them first. The arachnids ruined all but the very top set of leaves. These babies grew back from the damage and endured a bout of root rot.

These girls went straight to flowering as clones. Due to all their suffering they are on day 84 of flowering and still need another weeks or more.

Default Setup 2 - 1000W HPS, Waterfarm
Here is the second setup. There are 8 plants in 4 containers connected to a reservoir level controller. These babies went straight to flowering as clones under a 400W MH. When the MF SCROG grow finished I moved these ladies under the 1000W HPS.

Default Setup 3 - 400W MH, Rainforest 66
So here is the newest addition to the flowering room. We have 6 Mother's Finest in a GH Rainforest 66. One container is double planted and two others have clones that formed two main stems. These girls are on day 5 of flowering.

Hey msd. Title of this new thread sounds like a porn film... or is it just my sick head? Anyway, I'm sure there's gonna be a lot of porn here along the way... bud porn that is.

How old are the ones under the 1000w? How long did they spend under the 400w MH before they got a taste of the big light? Amazing how different our phenotypes are. You flower yours straight from clones... I veg for 35 days and your plants are 3 times as tall as mine

Obviously subscribed and best of luck on this grow.

it doesn't hurt to have a good title when creating a new thread

those girls are at 34 days flowering. they were under the 400W MH for about three weeks. these girls grow crazy tall. this batch is looking much better than the last two. I have really cut back on the nutirent solution. i am still getting the 7 leaf fan leaves instead of the 3 leaf mutants that i got when i over fertilized the last batches.

do you know where your strain came from? i grew mine from seed (sensi seeds).

Here are some pics of the struggle these babies have been through. The first pic is on 10/14 when I transplanted the clones into the RF66 and into the flowering room. The girls got smacked around by the mites and dropped all their leaves. The second pic is on 10/29 after they started to recover.

My plants are clones taken from a mother that was grown from seed (Sensi seeds as well). My girls also have a lot of the 3 leaf mutants you talk about... not sure if that's a bad thing. The leafs on the bottom of the plants usually have 3 leafs and the top of the plants have 5 leaf fans, but I haven't seen any 7 leaf fans yet.

Just noticed you leave one of the pots empty on the Rainforrest. Do the plants get too big for you to fill up that thing?

There is a small hole for fill and drain. I use it to drain but I find it is easier to just pour the solution into the tank instead of pumping it. That is why I leave one spot empty.
