    Default week 2, 15days

    week 2 since clone transplant, photos taken this morning which makes it 15 days.
    she has hit the screen!
    still gunna veg for a few more weeks or so to fill some of the screen before flippin to 12/12 and swapping the cfl hood for the 150w hps.
    roots have really taken off, some of the roots are like a foot long or more! veg growth is taking off now, can notice new growth from day to day now.
    currently feeding around 700ppm of nutes at 5.8 - 6 ph, had slight nute burn on tips last week do have dropped ppm a little.

    heres this mornings pics at 15 days since transplant.

    Cheers dude!
    yeh my airstone kept floating too. I ended up attaching a super strong magnet to the bottom of the airstone and also another taped to the bottom
    of the bucket and that holds it place perfectly. I busted open a few old computer hard drives for the magnets but ya can get them at radioshack or somewhere like that, just look for the neodymium magnets, they strong as fuck for their size

    Day 23 since transplant.
    A little late with the update, but here it is!
    Growth has quite literally exploded since last update, ive started trimming some of the lower branches that will serve no purpose ( not wasted tho, they have gone in me new bubble cloner and if they root, will go week of veg then 12/12 in the pc case)
    Starting to train the branches under the screen, looks messy but should sort itself out
    So at this point being its only been 3 weeks and with its current rate of growth, i estimate another 2-3 weeks til i can flip to 12/12

    Thanks lady j.
    I'm going to swap over the light tonight to the 150w hps. The hps will penetrate the foliage better and should boost growth a little too.
    the cfl hood is currently putting out around 10000 lumens whereas the hps puts out around 14500 lumens and they both consume near on the same power.
    I'm seeing new growth every day so I think she'll fill the screen within the next week

    Another little update.

    The 150w HPS has gone in. But in doing so i realised i only have 12" max between the screen and light, didnt sound like enough to me.
    So while i had the bucket out for a top up i removed the screen and dropped it down another coupla inches (as much as i could physically move it)
    So now i should have around 15" of space between the screen and light.
    The hps is in my custom cool hood which should allow me to get the plant tops pretty close without burning, i can hold my hand almost directly against it without getting too hot.
    Time will tell i guess.

    heres some pics of the rearrangement, once again it looks a bit messy but it will sort itself out

    Cheers click!
    This is my first scrog grow so I'm not sure what to expect yeild wise. Also I haven't grown this strain before. But I'm expecting a decent amount, I've counted at least 30 bud sites so far.
    my last plant in this cupboard yeilded 3oz dry and that was thru a lot of lst. Unfortunately it was middle of summer and I was unable to control how fast it dried and it dried to a crisp in 2 days so it tasted pretty shit but still got ya high.

    I'm going scrog this time for 2 reasons. 1 is I just wanna give scrog a go and 2nd, the lst on the last plant got pretty hectic with trying to find tie points and so on, became a real pain in the ass. scrog so far is much easier. I just let it grow thru the screen a few inches then pull it back under and redirect the branch to where I want it I've only had to tie one branch in place and that's it.

    Just done res change and will be updating photos soon
