Chrystal Nirvana 150w hps closet grow! Starts Flowering 3/9

Today is day 38 flowering. I plan on putting the 2 Feminized Chrystal plants from Nirvana into flowering tomorrow. They are only about 14" tall, but very bushy. Its my first grow but they seem healthy and happy.

Current set up is a very low-cost DWC in ice-cream pales with small tip air stones running off a small aquarium pump. Medium is soil (not my idea) but it seems to be doing ok. I ordered the FlowerTabs from Nirvana to see how well they work. I also have a small humidifier and air purifier in the closet. Mylar on 3 walls and a box that is lined with Mylar on the fourth side so it gets lots of light. Currently vegging with two 24" "grow bulbs" cant remember the exact wattage but they are about 6700k? I found a 150w HPS SunSystem lighting set-up ($80 shipped) from Grow Annex. It is hung and ready to go. I will probably need to get a small fan and humidity/ temp gauge.I changed all the light bulbs in my house to CFLs to hopefully off-set the price of running the HPS light.

Each of the plants has seemed to take on traits from each side of its gene pool. One seems to have shorter fatter leaves while the other has longer thinner leaves, it will be interesting to see what happens once I switch the lights. last attempt was just a bag seed practice and a week into flowering, showed males. It was a sad day after putting in all that time and decided to do it right and ordered some Fem seeds.

We are now gearing up for summer just got done placing orders for this years crops: THC Bomb, Hash Bomb, (3 Free Fem Easyrider), Super Lemon Haze, Afghan Kush. Also ordered some Dr. Grinspoon from Barney's Farm.We couldn't resist. It looks so odd. With its 90-100 flowering time it is way too long to grow outdoors here, but if it got a good start, maybe a transplant would work... or just complete indoor grow. There will definitely be a grow log for those!

I am gearing up for my first complete DWC grow. I ordered some hydroton and net pots today. Getting some 5 gallon buckets from a local restaurant (dark green). All my other supplies are easily found at Walmart.

Sorry I rambled, I'm pretty baked.

Here they are at Day 34:

Day 65 from seed
Day 27 of flowering and they are doing very well., once the lights switched they shot right up.
here are some pics from day 14, we changed the water and put some Flower Tabs in from Nirvana. I will post more pics soon.
We were hoping for a very happy 420 but looks like they wont finish until the last week in April.

Received our next round for growing. Dr. Grinspoon is for indoor all the rest mentioned above are for outdoors. Also received 3 free fem auto flower easyrider and 5 free reg seeds that are a new strain called Mi5 (My Indoor #5). I looked them up because I had never heard of them and they are from a grower known as Stitch, its a AK 47 breed.

Checked on them today and the tips of a few leaves are yellowing. Think they got a little nute burn. Lots of bud sights forming and the cola is starting to take shape. TONS of white hairs everywhere. I will post pics tomorrow. About 4 more weeks!

I just harvested my Chrystal plant from a microgrow I started a while back. This strain has some amazing genetics, and smoke is VERY nice. Good luck man, it'll be worth the wait I can tell you that!
