600W Nirvana's Ice and AfghooXStrawberry Cough Grow

Alright, so finished up the CFL grow and got a new HPS system for flowering now.
Have 6 Nirvana's Ice and 3 Strawberry Goo (i think one is male)
They have been vegging for an unknown amount of time, lost track because of space/air/light issues. But ya they have been vegging past seedling stage for at least a month. I wanted to flower some monsters, but since im taking time off from work to harvest my outdoor if I flower indoor soon finish times should be close to equal.
Growing in Coco with perlite and some compost. Fox Farms full line-up with molasses. And PH'd water to as close to 6 as I can get it. The room has a 6" valuline fan with speed control.
6" air cooled fan with glass, sunpulse 600W and digital ballast. Phresh carbon filter. The room the tent is in is already stinking. The plants are vegging under dual spectrum 3500K and 6000K 4x4 HO T5's.
Please post any comments or criticisms, +rep to any assistance or comments. Enjoy, Flower should start in a week.

the big girls on the left are the Afghoo X Strawberry Cough. They all had a bit of stretch early on, but bushing up nicely now. Feeding schedule is full strength nutes one week and then diluted the next. Since with coco have to keep feeding.

Alright, so changed the room up last night and put in the carbon filter and 600W HPS. Cleaned out the tent and got the plants on crates, will post pics when the lights come on for the first time 12/12 cause I may have the light too high still, if so then i need longer ducting from the fan to the hood.

Today is the first day of flower and I think that my light may still be too high. It's a 600W and i read about 12inches is adequate, but since its air cooled I figure i could cut that down to about 9inches or so. Any recommendations?

Okay, found two more males tonight. Both ICE, and 2 of the best Fimd ones I had too. They look good, but not very smelly, so not sure if im going to grow either out to get pollen for my breeding project. Plants growing big and cant wait to see some baby buds. Not even a week yet so its still early.

So finally pulled the males out of the room, turns out i ended up with 3 males out of 9 seedlings. So overall not bad. The ladies are looking amazing, one week into flower and they have nice lil budlets starting up. Can't wait to see some swelling soon, still using the open sesame for another week then on to beastie blooms. Still using molasses every watering and feeding every other. Having great success with the coco, and never going back. ENJOY, ill be lighting up some blackberry kush from a new club in a moment.

Dang one comment? Its all good, hopefully when I get some bud porn there'll be more interesting.

Hey no the feeling lol i keep up wit ya u keep up wit me sound good can bounce ideas off each other sub ++++

Sounds like a plan Bud. So rearranged the plants and put the taller plants on the sides and my lil strawberry goo's right under the light. Seeing alot of yellowing, so im ganna need to up the nitrogen a bit and add some epsom salts. Today they just got some water, molasses, and threw in some beastie bloomz.

So just ordered seeds from Attitude for the second time. My first order was back in 09 and this grow has the last of the seeds. Ordered DNA reg Kandy kush X Skunk, and Next Generation Grapefruit diesel. With that order im getting a pack of DNA pure afghan, 1x each fem Paradise Seeds Wappa, Nebula, Acid and Royal Queen Dwarf, NL both are auto fems and 1x special queen. Very big order but they hook it up with the freebies.

the light leak for few hours my have set u 8ack a day or two 8ut not more i would not think ?????

Thats what I was thinking. A week at the most, ya I ordered once before and everything went ok so for all the freebies they giving out I had to try em out again.

I'm glad too see someone growing the ICE as I will be sprouting some too in the near future, I'll be following this to see what you run into in growing these out.
Happy growing, happy toking

The only thing wit tude is the s/h is crazy high wit the stealth all the others do it and dont charge arm and leg .
Btw i cant wait to see the afghoo

Ya your right on there, almost pay for the freebies with the stealth shipping. Plus when i ordered the shirt the first time, a medium, was like an extra small. Ya iv'e grown the afghoo outdoors last year and had 2 phenos. One was more sativa and took 2 extra weeks to finish, whats funny is the sativa pheno grows just like the indica dom. Only difference was the leaves and lower yield. But pink pistils are cool.
@Randm: Ya so far only thing about the ICE is some stretch, one that was fimd really well is easily 3 ft already. Ill take some pics tonight.

Alright, things are going pretty good, one plant is having some leaf issues. Not really sure whats wrong... im 21 days into flower
