First Grow - 2x White Widow under 250W

1 month of vegging. They are about 1.5 weeks into flowering and appear to both be showing as female. Planted in 3 gal pots with Ocean Forest. BioCanna nutes (didn't nute much in veg phase though). 250W MH for veg, switched to 12/12 250W HPS for flowering.

Mary (larger one) appears a little stretched. Jane (smaller!) got a little slow start due to having her seed shell covering the first leaves for a while.

Comments welcome, btw if anyone has input

Here are some updated pics. I broke Mary's stem by trying to LST her -- she got a 90 degree bend and a slightly ripped side of the stem. I tied her back up and after 2 days she seems to be doing fine. I removed the tie and the stem stays vertical.

I also added a 12" fan to the setup to move some air around (stays under 80 degrees now) and I also put up a fluorescent fixture I had laying around. I don't know if that little light from it will matter much.

The largest ones have 11. Most of them are less than that

that is awesome. i have 3 white widow seeds that made it that are only a week old check out my grow your plants look awesome btw

I was losing a lot of light due to not having good reflection, so I built a little box out of cardboard moving boxes. I painted the inside flat white. I also had to relocate everything to an area with a little more vertical room since these girls keep growing.

Updated pics @ about 2.5 weeks flowering.

Looking good.Just curious when lights off its completely dark for the ladies right?

Thanks!

Yes, it's lights out from 11pm - 11am. It's in a closet with sliding doors and we don't go in during those hours. If we absolutely have to we just pop in a door and feel around in the dark

Ok thats good.I want to see how these ladies finish up.

I water both girls about 1500 ml with 1 tsp of Bio Canna Flores every 2-3 days. I've noticed some drooping of the leaves on the taller girl but she perks up when she gets a little drier. May be over watering a tad.

I'm going to start adding molasses soon, and possibly look into bloom targeted nutes. If anyone has suggestions or experiences with blooming nutes I'd be curious to hear if they are actually worth the $$.

The short answer is "yes" dude...try some Vitalink "Buddy" added to your usual food from week 4 or 5 at half strength...

Looks like I'm at about the right time to start looking into the blooming nutes.. thanks for the link!

I got 2 nirvana ww going at about a month old, I wasn't sure I got the right strain cause ww is suppose to be a sativa and the leaves sure look like an indica,but yours look just like mine. where did you get your ww from?

Isn't WW supposed to be a 60/40 mix? I got mine from http://www.marijuana-seeds.nl -- Non FEM version (even though both of mine turned out to be fem)

nirvana's description makes it sound more on the sativa side.I though the leaves would look more sativa like, but I got no problems aslong as there both girls.
Additional Information

DescriptionIn the mid-1990s, a cannabis legend was born. Almost overnight, White Widow appeared on the menu of just about every coffeeshop in the Netherlands. This marijuana masterpiece went on to become a yardstick against which all other “white” marijuana strains are held up. Marijuana seeds of the White Widow strain grow into tall plants with delicate arms. Her buds are moderately compact in order to contain the copious amounts of THC resin she produces. Tending toward the Cannabis Sativa side, White Widow produces a buzz that is powerful yet energizing and very social.

r Indica / Sativa:HybridPlant type:IndoorPlant height:MediumEffect:High (head trip) yet stoned (body buzz)Flavour:herbal / pineAverage yield:325 - 425 (g/m² in SOG)Flowering period:8 - 10 weeks

Grows looking good keep it up. Those things are big. I just got a white widow clone a week ago and it is wayyy shorter than those. I'm sticking around til harvest.
