250W SOG White Widow Grow

Just got done with a hashberry SCROG grow and kind of playing around with my setup to see what works best. I have been growing a G-13 labs White Widow Fem for a lil over a month now. I got 6 clones of her. The last clone is sort of an experiment, Arjan's Haze 1. The Arjan's Haze is not looking great.

I am going to start flowering as soon as they show good roots. My goal is to get 6- 1/2oz nugs like the biggest of the hashberry. I am also changing the nutes. My last grow I used techniflora, the starters recipe variety. I am going to be switching to advanced nutrients I think. The technaflora just had too much salt build-up and everything I've read this is due to cheap nutes

hey Bud, you've got 7 Non auto's in that AeroGarden; how do you plan on dealing with the lack of Res space in terms of root growth?

You're Hashberry grow, via your AG as well? How many plants were in there, and can you provide pics of that setup? Curious as I have one VERY healthy lady flowering for 13 days now and it's in a 6 Pod AeroGarden Veggie Pro and there's not much room left.. Imagine 7...

Good luck with the grow! Looking forward to some more pics!

Ok sorry it's been so long since an update....

Yeah I ended up going with the 3 strongest plants and decided to SCROG again. I think it's the perfect way for this setup. The 3 smaller White Widow I planted outdoors. This is G-13 Labs White Widow, a free-be from attitude. I've been amazed on how easy it is to bend and twist under the screen. 2.5 weeks of flowering....

I also changed to General Hydroponics Flora series...I like these nutes better already. Not as much visible sediment as Technaflora...

UPDATE....So it's almost 3 weeks flowering. I think thats about it for the stretching phase of flowering. I snapped a few fan blades off tucking it under the screen, but no grow tips. It's pretty thick in the canopy. Hopefully they'll start adding the bulk now and I won't need to mess with scrogging.

25 days / 3.5 weeks Flowering....They're doing really good. I really like the general hydoponics flora series. Absolutly no signs of sediment or salt build up. Roots look very healthy. I also counted the bud sites on the canapoy....36 tops. Hope it doesn't get to clogged in there once the buds start bulking up. I guess thats a good problem to have though.

The moms are doing really well. I read an article about low maintenance moms, so I'm trying it out, so far so good. The timer for moms is set on 12 hrs on while flowering room is on and then 15 mins every 3 hrs. I guess its more of a energy efficiency thing but with the light comin on 15 mins every 3 hrs they never trigger into flowering. So my moms are getting 12.75 hrs of light per day.

4 Weeks/ 28 days Flowering.....They look healthy and getting frosty, but I feel like they should be farther along than they are considering it says 8 weeks. So only 3 more weeks of nutes then flush?

lookin good! I'm days away from 10 weeks flowering my 2 WW's and Himalayan gold. Definitely got a sativa pheno in both strains. Trics are almost 100% cloudy, no amber except on pistils (am looking for ~30-50% amber on calyx's)

preciate it MadSci. Yeah it says this is more of an Indica pheno WW. But I'm starting to think it's got some sativa in it. Do you know how the buds compare to yours at 4 weeks flower?

4.5 weeks / 32 days flowering....After reading alot trying to figure out how far along the buds should be developing, I read that this strain suggests 8 weeks / 65 days. So that is good news, makes me feel better that they are only half way through. I noticed some leaf tips changing colors. Looks like I may have overdosed them a bit. So I went 1/2 strength on the nutes this week to see if that helps. One of the pictures is of the roots after I drained the nute solution.

Really nice set-up, especially the screen-weave. Sick. I'm going for my first aero run, just started about fourteen clones in a couple home-made bucket setups. So the GH is treating you well? I went for FF hydro set-up, but I've been looking at Gh quite a bit. Good formula with none of the overblown advertising/packaging.
