So I have never done a grow journal. I'll start it with these next plants in veg.
Please go here to read about my first year of growing and to see my current plants in flowering. Lots of pics. Including the FINISHED WHITE QUEEN

A little about how I do things..

I start my clones, using CloneX, under 4x 4ft 54watt
SunBlaze T5's then move to a 400w MH with a SolarMax veg bulb, 24 hr lighting.

I started these plants in 2 gal and moved them to 4 after 3 weeks (would of done it sooner but didn't have money for dirt) I'm not going to veg these plants as big as my last.

So here is 7 White Queens and 1 NL5


And the other Queen and 4 Black Widows still needing transplanted.

those clones are purple Kush :mrgreen:

All the plants are topped twice... In the future I am only going to top once and keep two main tops... and SOG.

Oh yea here is what I am feeding. They are only at one of 2 hydro shops around here and are made here.


soil nute 3-7-3
bioactive supplement 1-5-1
bone meal 0-12-0
the plant growth enhancer is kelp, b1, hummus, lots of stuff.
the little bottle of "Amino Blast" is something they recently added and its suppose to "Help make more oils" smells like a rotting carcass in the sun...

the feed schedule, changed some by me to save money, I know the hydro shop is ripping me off... they probably would be just as good with half this..


I've been watering my flowers around every 3-4 days, depends on plant stage. That was also in 5 gal pots and now I'm in 4 gal bags.

So I guess that's now, I'll probably update when I get those trans planted. Again please see my current flowering plants and pics of the White Queen and NL5 done with the link at the top if you haven't already.

Questions and comments appreciated.

...

Here's a close up pic of a lower 2ndary nug off some Queen 48 days in flowering right now.

ANY FUCKING COMMENTS? :twisted: EVER? :neutral:

I just made this pic showing my whole grow room setup pretty much.


damn shrinks it to almost half cause it was 1500 wide...
the red text is saying I have an intake fan in the plastic, near the top, with a light shield (a box with slots in the top) over it

So, not that anyone has posted here or anything, but I would LIKE some opinions.
My flowering room is full of 6ft plants, 7 with 2 weeks to go and 8 with 5 weeks to go. I want to flower this next set NOW before they get huge again... I want another 1000 watt hps but cant afford yet, in 3 weeks ;)

My Question:
Should I just start flowering under my 400MH light? It has a blue veg bulb and I don't know how well it will do either, would getting a standard warm bulb help? I will definitely be able to get another 1000w hps within a month. Any cheap way I could add some good flowering light for now? I just don't know what to do...
Some advice would be appreciated

I'll post a pic of them later, but their like waist height now.

After advice from personally known growers and bfg,
These plants will start flowering tonight under the 400w mh until I get another 1000w hps in 3 weeks.

Heres the next set of 8 Queens


and one NL5, clearly topped twice.


I'll be taking 8 Queen, 4 black widow and 2 NL5 cuttings to clone for the next batch, which will be smaller plants, and lollipoping in about a week.
The 4 black widows are still under t5's in veg.

IF YOU DON'T VISIT THE INDOOR GROWING SECTION, OR HAVEN'T SEEN THIS, PLEASE CLICK THE LINK TO MY FIRST YEAR GROWING EXPERIENCES AT THE TOP OF THE FIRST POST IN THIS THREAD.

Wow!! dude you have a whole room I wish I had that instead you know I got it in my living room. Where do you get those white bags? It would help me alot. Nice thow So every ofter do you harvest? Im trying to get a rotation going I dont know exactly if it will work out for me. I might also have to start flowering in my little sections of my closet. So they dont get to big. These whole weed growing thing is still just a trial and error thing maybe in a year after a couple of harvest under my belt. I'll have some thing good going on.

The mh is fine to flower with i use em it also will increase trics,and taste better.Heres one that i did a light test on mh v hpseyebulb.25days flower when pic was taken.https://www.rollitup.org/attachments/indoor-growing/183941d1220404464-400hps-versus-400mh-image004.jpg look at this https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/121018-how-well-does-mh-work.html page 3
 
maybe if 1000 is out of reach right now you could go with cfl's for now with the right spectrum and put close enough it might do the trick
