Dual Grow, Miracle Grow & CFL with AK48 and Power Skunk

mrrippey · #1 02-13-2009, 12:54 PM

Hey all,

I am currently working on a Hempy grow, now two weeks old.

I am doing a parallel grow with miracle grow potting soil (mixed with perlite 2-1) with some AK48 and Power Skunk, all growing under CFL's.

I will post pics later but all seeds have germinated and hit the dirt today.

My dirt girls are:
My AK48 are Bonnie and Claudette
My Power Skunk are Laverne and Shirley

My Hempy girls are
AK48 are Thelma and Louise

Here are some pics of them from the other night. Not even a week old and they are growing fast.

More pics from this morning. Gave them a cup of water each and they seem to like it.

First one is 11 days, the rest are 8 days.

Gave them all water today, the bigger ones I gave 64 oz (1,2 and 4) of water and the smaller 32 oz of water (3).

1 is 18 days old
2-4 are 15 days old, #3 was the smallest to germinate, seems like its lagging from the others

1 and 2 are AK48
3 and 4 are Power Skunk

This is the first time I watered them in a week

added water yesterday and wow did the grow. Had to move the lights on three of the six to prevent burning of the tips (#4 got burned).

Here are pics of 1-4

looks good man!

thanks, I think the key with MG is 1. mix with perlite and 2. make sure not to overwater. Overwater -> burning plants!!!!

I feed these once a week and they are looking nice. As they get bigger I will increase the watering but I do not think I will ever get to a point where I water them 3x a week, maybe twice.

Going to flower them when they get to about 10" tall or something like that (I am going to get a Homebox L with a 400hps). Vegging with CFLs which I have to say are impressive.

lookin good man, reg Mg or organic?

thanks pdeezy, I am using MG Potting Soil with a 2:1 mix with MG Perlite. I have a 2" base on the pots of pure perlite. Seeds started in peet pellets and as soon as they broke seed, I put them into the pots. Watered 1/2 cup of tap water every other day for first 8 days then no water for 10 days and now I am going on a 7 day watering until they get a bit bigger. I need to take some side pics so you can see how tall they are.

just an update on how things are moving. Last watered them on Saturday and they are growing ALOT. needed to move the lights around a bit. NOticed that one had burns on her tips, another one had some yellow on her tips. going to monitor but overall they are looking great.

Here is a picture of my setup and two plants i converted from hempy to MG. hempy is great but grows a bit slow for me (no patience) and they got shocked for about a week or so. i didnt think they were going to make it but they seem to have rebounded. they are actually about 4 weeks old but small.
