Hey roll it up,Im a newbie this is first time.
Im growing elephants bud from bc seeds. To all of those that hate on bc seeds leave it out of this room pls.I kno $500 for seeds are alot but i didnt care at least i got stuff u havent smoked nor will because your to cheap to find out for yourself.Any ways they were laid down in there bed on 10-20. i put them straight into a 10 gallon bags im running 2 1000s hps.i still got a long ways to go but im getting there. ill take advice or pointers.But dont waste the time to say wow u payed that much ...u got ripped off.I dont feel like hearing it.i got plenty of freebies worked out to 11dollars per seed.They are planted in sunshine #4 only nothing else but nutes.idecided to go with advanced nutes do to thats whats easiest to get a hold of and came with a shcedual made by the local store guru.This will be a longer journal ill post updates regularly but it will be some time. Im vegging for 2 months or till my auto flowers are done.im hoping to see a good turn around The lights are raised up so im able to walk in toom and take pics

:leaf:good luck man... hopefully you only lose a few plants to males... are you going to clone? It sounds like you have a regular research facility going....

But it is fin watching different strains... I have chronics and white russians currently and they are very different grows...:leaf:

i have elphant purple seeds as we speak, but i have never grown it before.

Im excited to see how it does too!

heres a few tips from what i have gathered about these strains and growing in general...

Obviously, the elephants get big.

HPS lights (yellow and red light waves) cause a plant to GROW further between each node, and grow larger leaves.

I am not certain, but i would venture to say if you veg for 2 months under an hps... these plants will be HUGE by harvest

If you read the reviews on bc's site, one person notes that "start blooming at 14 inches and you will end up with a plant well over 3 ft by harvest"

That said... is it real or exageration, idk?

But, if you DO want to veg and get the plants nice and thick and healthy, but not too TALL... then i would recomend a MH bulb that is all blues and purples in the light waves spectrum.

This causes a plants nodes to happen a shorter distance from eachother, so you have the same amount of leaves, but on a shorter plant.

Once the plant is put under the hps for budding... IT WILL STILL DOUBLE IN SIZE OR MORE during the budding phase.

This is true for all plants i believe.

I will be tuned in to see how the elephants plant structure is.

What freebee strains did you get?

thanks for starting this thread!

Thnx all for droping by. ya im hoping they get huge but if they get to big to quick i will flower them but only time will tell.i will be cloning and i want to breed some of the elephant.Cuz if it is as good as they say Id be a fool not too I think. The freebies were kali skunk ,kaliX ak47(also known as kmak) ,and ww X sweettooth.On anther note i got some green crack seeds today just 4 and they are fresh so i need to let them dry first but i thought this was a clone only strain would my seeds be hermies? wont hurt to try i guess... Heres a few pics of the chronic i be blazin feel free to post some of your own ...this is bagweed from a friend ....Expensive bagweed ...and some honey

oh cool, i am going to run wonder woman in the near future.
I'm running some Nirvanas Wonder Woman right now and she is well worth the $$, heres a pic.

She is a clone, was vegged for 2 weeks under 6 20w floros and flowered under a 400w HPS. She is on her 53rd day of flower.

Thanks,This is my first time and hour after hours of reading thread after thread and journal after journals.I finally took the leap sure isnt cheap thats forsure and yea hopefully this will sovle the debate of is this worth it. Some will call me a sucker but at the very least i kno im trying something i havent had before.As a newbie to this whole thing i hope that everyone will get a good picture of what elephant is like when its growin.i may hit a few patches along the way but after all it is trial and error for me. There state that is easy to grow.On a side note i just noticed they moved the kmak to there world strongest strains. they gave 10 free i got those goin as well...so whos trying the the pickle bud.... takers? http://bcseeds.com/World-Strongest/c51/p180/Pickle-Bud/product_info.html lol ....wow maybe a little over board
