1200w Soil ScroG 1st Indoor Grow

**mike91sr** · 08-25-2011, 11:05 AM

So I'm starting this journal for my first ever indoor grow. I've helped with a couple outdoor grows, nothing crazy, but this will be my first time in control of everything. I'm going to be doing a u-ScroG in a 3x8 cabinet with 2-600w lights. The clones will first be rooted and vegged in a 2x3 box with 2-105w cfl's and a 13w cfl. This will shorten their time in the main box, since the previous crop will be in there for a couple months. If you haven't and would like to, go to my Grow Box Build thread.

I'll be growing Strawberry Cough, Super Silver, and Purple Kush. I just picked up the clones on Monday and got them into soil. That day, my roommate decided the house was too cold and turned off the a/c, and my grow room got up to about 94 for a couple hours. And tuesday morning he decided to play with the light and it ended up resting on one of the super silver's for about an hour before I got home. So they've been a little stressed and haven't fully recovered. Not off to a great start. I also think they may have a nutrient deficiency (P and Mg). You guys tell me what you think. As I said, first ever indoor grow and I didn't really know that much from the outdoor I've done. I'm doing as much reading as I can, but symptoms are so similar.

Running smooth

Purple Kush Clone Day 1

Purple Kush

Any ideas on this??

Strawberry Cough (I have 4, unorganized pictures from first day though)

And the bad...again, ideas?

Super Silver

And this is the one damaged by the light

It looks like you have your work cut out for you. They seem to have differing degrees of stress from heat and nute burn. A crazy collection of plants. It can be a challenge growing different strains on the same screen - genetics can be a real trip once they start filling in. Good luck with them.

I don't see how they could have nute burn. I transplanted the clones into 1 part seedling starter mix 3 parts plain topsoil. Used Superthrive as a root stimulator and no other nutrients until this morning, I gave a very weak concentration of tomato plant food hoping that helps. Heat would make more sense but how come the top leaves are the healthier ones? They're closer to the light and should therefore have more burn I'd assume.

Perhaps the person you got the clones from pushed the nutrients too hard initially. Different strains have different tolerances for what they will tolerate. As you said, the symptoms can present in a similar fashion.

Could be. I just haven't seem them show improvement in 3 days. New growth is happening though, not extremely fast, but they're just rooting into soil so I'm happy with any growth that happens.

Also, should I just clip the top off the burnt silver? It looks like it's just oging to drop it off soon anyway

Update, these pictures were taken late last night. I'm going to get some more in a little bit, or possibly tomorrow morning.

Any other ideas what's up with these ladies?

Here's some pictures I took last night. Plants aren't really looking, worse, but not looking better. I fed them today by mixing some of the granular fertilizer I have into a bottle of water. Hopefully that gets the nutes to them faster, I do believe it's a deficiency after a bunch of research.

Sorry they're unlabeled, I couldnt get them to show up inline so I had to just attach them separately from text. First 6 are Super Silver, pic #8 & 10 are Purple Kush, the rest are the strawberry cough
