My Secret Stealth Closet/Clonestand (comments welcome)

Harvested the sweet tooth. My first closet harvest plant yay.

Well another day andother nugget. Everything growing great. I put myself into a lil corner, have to sell half of my first sweet tooth harvest but I got a glowpanel 45 and its well worth it from what I hear. I run it 12 hours in my bloom room along side my 150 hps

believe it or not I actually reorganized the cords and they are way better

even tho it mildly looks rat nest esque nothing is hot etc, everything ran thru double surge protection as well. Her are a few pics of the bloom room, everything is going great. None of the damage from my overnuting seems to be spreading and they are all growing. The huge beast on the right is a blueberry that i supercropped to take all light i could find.





so everything looking spicy. And here is a pic of my veg area with new led setup in it, again only 12 hours a day but beats the hell outta 0. All new clones going to reg potting soil mix, how long should Iwait for first fertilize, also my clones look like their just bleeding chlorophyll out and many yellow leaves, have heard not to nute clones at all is that normal?




So anyway all is well thanks for reading and as always all comments,advice are most welcome.

Man what a difference a good light makes. An inch growth on some of the veg plants during their 12 hours with the led, craziness. New leaves popping out and everything. Started mollases in my bloom room today, everything looking pretty good.

First sweet tooth harvested nicely, was severely overtrimmed to be just one bud, was abused, nearly snapped, spend days of florer in car trunk and week of flower under incandescent and still managed 16 grams dry of some severly good weed.Other plants coming along nicely, blueberry I hurt even growing new leaves and thickening. Have started mollasses water and my own regiment of niutes after flushing prior owners all seems going well. Have some well rooted vegi plants, alot looking good in clone blocks, and my second led panel arriving tomorrow. Not gonna post individual pics tonight sine tomorrow when new light comes im cleaning grow room, will snap them each tomorrow and update on here. Here is a link to tonights pics tho.

Got my second led today, so I took every plant out of closet, reartranged by height, cleaned, and rehung my lights. Have 2 glowpanel 45s by sunshine systems and a htg 150 watt hps now. Still switching one led out to give vegi 12 hours a day of led and as soon as possible will replace last light and be done with at least that phase of my build.Heres how the lighting looks now



Hopefully with a little love the plants I hurt will continue to recoup, here are the 8 ladies I currently have budding
























As always all comments and feedback welcome, all input helps me decide where to go with this grow,.

Well fed the girls today, for the first time finally got their watering together, none been flushed, overnuted, or overwatered recently so was nice to have a simple feed day. Everything looks good, some new fan leaves actually making it out on burnt plants so they even seem to be growing nicely again finally.Some clones pushing over their blocks with healthy roots and not much room for em, good problem to have will start as many as can, keep the healthiesat for my new smaller mothers, put old too bushy mothers in bloom room as room opens, and be able to keep more than 3 strains at a time plus just have some room on mother side.With the 3 lights hung and all plants organized by size I'm finally able to get them all bathed in light by a light thats hung nice and close and they really seem to be responding to it well. I know hanging to high will cause them to stretch what about too low. Leds wont really burn the plants but will it make them shorter?

Another day another node. Roots on clones looking strong, gonna take a few vegi plants outside soon if this keeps up, Doesnt appear I poisoned em with this feed so thats several good weeks in a row, go me.

Bought my nutes today, went with foxfarm trio for start and shortly will get the bloom trio from them. Veg area looking great plants sprouting new nodes right and left and now have a rooted clone of each strain. The led lights are bringing my plants and parsley up fast fast.Will get some good veg area pics tomorrow, maybe do some of the closet if I can remember right before it goes on or right after it goes off. The leds definately haveing a positive impact tho, buds forming fast and thick in closet now, plants doing much better with the multiple lighting and me able to hang them low.

Everything seems to be going ok, the veg is starting to take off on a few plants, and have at least one solidly rooted of each strain. http://s682.photobucket.com/albums/vv189/Closetcultivator111/

hey stop cutting off all the lower growth on your plants when there budding!!!!!! please!! thats what i like to call plant abuse. i know u either read or some idiot told u it was a good idea but there wrong. your not supposed to cut anything off the plant during bloom bcuz it puts ur plant thru so much stress and it focuses its energy on healing other then bud production. in order to get maxinum yeild u must never put ur plants thru any type of stress during budding. i dont even touch my plants when they go into flower they stay in the same spot untill im ready to cut them down. i know u wanna tak them out so u can get better shots but its better to just let'em grow. a plant is not used to being moved around in the wild so y do it to him now? and also make sure ur watering every day there is no such thing as over watering think about it some people grow hydo and their plants live in the water their whole life so y not water ur babies everyday and give them the best of both worlds.

i water everyday n my plants love me. notthing less then four ounces a plant. n i think ur leds should be a lil closer

I didnt trim the bottoms, i got them like that. If you read back in post I say that I got all the plants that are flower now in a weird situation. The vegi are the only ones ive done self. Leds are like 8 inches off plants looks further camerta angle maybe but any less and they get no light spread at all. and some of the nuggs are like 2-3 inches off so couldnt klower much anyway.

Well since I have no clue on times, except a general idea when started to bloom, I decided to go ahead and flush the first blueberry, the most damaged of the plants. Its trichs are looking cloudy . I figure I flush 1 a week and once I smoke em I have a good idea in future the buzz I like and maturity of plant, without risking letting them all go too long.It basically had no water leaves left anyway and I have a bushy diesel crying out for space in the bloom area. Tied upp a few plants and made room for her since blue will be gone in a week anyway. Have good root systems showing on a clone of all 5 types so new mothers are working their ways in. All is well, waiting impatiently for my package of foxfarm.

How long should I wait for first nutes,2 weeks or 3, after transplanting clones . Also any good recomendations on ph testers, this little 20 dollar light/moisture/ph meter isnt all that accurate, whats good for testing soil, is there a good brand or something or is it just drops or strips and drainage water?

Nother day another nugget, all is looking well in closet land. No pics till son gets home from camp over spring break tho. Orange crush is really filling out and the buds are starting to form all over. Smells all kinds of dank. Found that a few unlit citronella candles around the area not only bug the lil flying vermin but does a really good job of scent masking.

All is well in closettown. Just waiting on my foxfarm nutes now, got my 30 times scope, makes it alot easier to focus than the 60-100 one. Nothing big to report in todays update.

Nothing huge going on, heres a few pics I snuck in right before light came on/son woke up.
Heres a nice little sweet tooth nugget in the works

Heres some other budding goodies



And here is some of the nicely thickening Orance Crush



And a small glimpse of vegi cabinet, nothing much going on just taller they go


thanks again for all the help along the way, Sorry about the blurry pics, cameras been camping for a week got some foggy lens hard to focus stuff going on. Hopefully maybe next month I will be able to get a new one sick of this pos.

I'm sorry but I can't even see your buds.

plants arent getting enough light, thats why you are getting crappy yeilds.

wait like a week. let your roots grow and attach themselfs to their new home. i use a root excelarator with my water for like the first three to four days and then i see my roots hanging like crazy monsters then its off to the soil and with really light nutes. but since u dont use hydro for your first week or so like me then u need to just use water n root excel for your first week.
