I am sure it's fine too. After all the plants can't distinguish where the nutrients were derived from. I know man tell me about it, I can't believe I went twice and still don't have everything. I think I was over complicating thigns again trying to get the best lights for my money. I should just have gotten the 24" tubes I used to use, 4 of them should be plenty.

Ok last update for today. Nothing big really, just got the 3 reflectors in place and filled some little pots up ready to transplant 10 or 12 clones.

Getting some bulbs tomorrow and I have to at least hook up a cool air intake.... eventually I gotta get to setting up my exhaust as well so I can hook up the second HPS.

Growth basically came to a crawl on the first generation plants that are still vegging. I think they are just begging to be forced.. I gotta get moving on that. I have a kid running around the house so my time in the room is limited to when he's sleeping or at school.

Sorry, I didn't get shit done today because we had or cesspool start to back up. Glad we caught it in time, there was barely any damage. We'll see if I can make it to Depot tomorrow. Maybe I can get some pics of the clones up later.

Nope, not going again, had a rough night with my kid last night and I don't feel like doing shit today. My tallest 1st gen female had a little bit of yellowing going on so I gave her some MG 15-30-15 since I am about to flower her. This stuff lists a bunch of micro nutrients too, so we'll see how she does in a few days.

Today was a sad day as I had to cull nearly all the clones. I overdid it on the humidity and a lot of them got mold on them. I removed any clone that had the slightest sign of mold on them to prevent infecting the others. Not really in the mood to post pics, but I will update later or tomorrow when I get my new ventilation rigged up.

:/

The first gen Diesel girls are still in Veg. Right now I am only using one 150W, but the second one is ready to go as soon as i get the ventilation done.I am hoping to get the house to myself tomorrow so that I can drill my exhaust vent through the side of the house. If my plan works out real good, I might even use my third 150W light in there. I've been mainly concentrating on the veg box for now.

The sad survivors.. I don't even know if they are worth keeping :/

Got some fresh cut clones under the hood again.

Put a light tight vent flap in the veg box since that's where the air intake is going to be.

Nice big opening for max airflow and minimal noise.

Is this MG deficiency?

The big fan leaves look like they need nitrogen. I foliar fed and and gave her some general purpose Miracle Gro in her water, gonna see how she does in a few days.





She's a pretty girl. This is the best phenotype out of the bunch, grows nice and compact with fat main leads. She seems healthier and is always praying for more light.

The survivors look like some back-alley rape victims.. I think I might kill them and just use the new ones. Your thoughts, is it worth the hassle?

dilema bro, let em roll a week while the newly cut clones root, or till they start to look good. good luck this time around, you can do it bro.

Yeah, i think that's what I am going to do, thaks for the advice. I can't believe I am down to 6 out of 34 LOL. I am going back to my old way of cloning by just using a cup of water.

I put the first gen ladies in flowering today and fired up my 2nd 150W HPS after I got most of the ventilation hooked up.

Here's some close ups:


POS Runt


That's the one with the yellowing leaves.



This one's my lil princess hehe

They all look like they perked up a bit from the nutes, but the big one lost a few more leaves :/ Hope she'll stabilize soon.


Here's some of the other stuff I managed to get done over the last few hours.

Well She's still yellowing. I am gonna give her another dose of Miracle Gro when the lights come on tonight and if she don't do better by the end of the week I am re-potting her into a 5gal bucket with some fresh medium.

I had to goo in the room during the dark period today and I used a green CFL to see, you guys think it's gonna mess them up?

I stopped updating this, seemed like there was a lack of interest. Probably since there are are a million of these little setups here already. I might consider adding updating it if there is enough interest. I have still been taking pictures almost daily.

sorry bro, ive been busy with my first bloom, i know that's no excuse. im here for you though! i think its because i only check peoples threads that coment on my thread regularly. that's some good advice i can give you. find some similar grows to you, and regularly keep a relationship with them. i got like 20 people who frequent my thread, and ive been on here for like four months!

the curling might be from heat stress, over watering, or underwatering. how many under the 150 hps in bloom? dont give up bro!

I don't hold it against anybody, I know this site is crazy busy.


3 plants under 2x 150W in flower. Hoping to upgrade to a Lumatek 400W digital ballast and an aircooled reflector soon.


This is the plant I was worried about, she seems better now.


The 5 clones that almost died. I got rid of the other clones, didn't like how they turned out.




These are 2 Feminized Lemon Skunks.
