Laceygirls Grow

I have been growing on and off for years now and since I've started again there have been a few more developments in the nutrient arena so I had a steep learning curve this time considering I use Canna Nutrients only...

Here are my babies, 6 days into flower, there are a few changes but as the weeks go on, they should be substantial.. This is a strain of white widow I purchased from buydutchseeds.com

They look super healthy! Good luck.

Here are my girls 12 days into flower... I am pretty happy with them... Next time I am replacing the 1000watt HPS with two 600watt HPS... Just to get a bit more coverage...
I am using Cannaboost at full strength now..

very nice lacey, looks good.

Nice even canopy - good luck!

Nice grow.. I also have switched from 1000w to 600w.. I like them better because you can get them closer to the plants without burning them.. Nice Job

Shock horror I've made a couple of changes, I've decided to try supercropping.. Since I am only two weeks into bud, I thought I would give it a go... I am also trying a homemade Co2 generator with sugar and yeast... Everyone has an opinion on how to do it, but not many have actually posted results. Well I am going to give it a go... I will make a Co2 journal and post photos and then on my next grow I wont do anything, I will use the same strain so we can see any differences.. There will be heaps of pics....
Peace and greenery, all...

I wouldn't crop them, it's too late already.

What method are you growing in?

Hi I am using clayballs as my medium... I find its heaps easier to control what my plants are getting...

Oh, but what setup? DWC/HYDROPONIC?

Plants look good. Heard lots of good things about canna nutrients, never tried them though...

I love supercropping. You can do it all the way through the end of flower. I find myself having to supercrop the same plant multiple times.

Anyway, nice grow. +rep.

Oh and what strain is that?

Oh sorry... I am using a double pot system with air stones in the bottom of each pot, with a water pump watering 15 mins every hour due to the clayballs... They hold no moisture... So I guess you could call it aeroponics with a touch of flood and drain... I like to use lots of air as the roots can hit the water in the bottom of the drainage pots but the plants love it.. It means I have to watch my pH a little more closely but its all good... I currently have 8 pots under a 1000watt light but I plan to double the pot number and replace the 1000 HPS with 2x 600 HPS

I have bent some stalks over and they seem to be going great guns.. The strain is White Widow from buydutchseeds.com

Some dude told me it was too late to supercrop... What's up with that? I thought the plant didn't really care when it was a little stressed, not too much but a little...

Canna Classic nutrients work for me...And no I don't work for Canna...lol... They are on the expensive side, but I have found they get results. They also have a 1 300 number here in Australia and you can call them about any product info or grow questions... They know what you are growing and they don't care.. Awesome company...They don't want to know anything about you either..Only if the product is working for you.

Canna have a lot of new products they've released over the past couple of years, and I've only just started to use them all. They work but you have to keep an eye on them... PPM is critical or EC depending on what measuring unit you have...

I use Rhizotonic for great root formation Canna Classic Vega A and B for vegetation with a little bit of Cannazym for root health and overall plant happiness
Flores A and B with Cannazym and Cannaboost for flowering... The trick with canna nutrients is to add the additives before you add the Vega or Flores A and B. Then take measurements... pH watching is now a full time job for me...

Thanks heaps for your input my friend, keep in touch..

I think that "Dude" was me

I don't think that it would harm the plant to tie and train it, but I don't like to cut into my plants after changing the light cycle, at all. In my opinion clipping at that stage causes too much stress.

Well my tent stinks like yeast eating sugar, I wish I could measure the PPM of the Co2 shall buy that meter after the next crop...lol...But it must be working, the smell is sooo strong...

What I've done is I've basically put the air conditioner and exhaust fan on the same timer as my watering, so the fans only come on for 15 mins every hour, just enough to completely vent my room a few times, I have a kick ass exhaust fan...The temp does rise, by about 8 - 10 degrees celcius, so that's something I am going to have to watch... I just have to keep shaking the bottles...

Lacey girl can you teach me how to make a set up like yours? Aren't you from Australia too? Read your introducing yourself, and you said from Australia. Its hard to find parts to make the setup. I want to use those cylinder containers. You know the common white containers for the rez. Roseman made it, its a 5 gallon container. So like do I get that cut a hole in the lid and put air stones in the bottom?

This is my you tube vids, I post everything.. In the vid information in the top right hand corner it give you full sun down of my system...

I am using an 8 pot system, just one pot stacked on top of another drainage pot, with an airstone underneath...

Any questions you have I will be happy to answer... Send me a message and I will hook you up with my local guys, they are unreal...
