Super Skunk & Critical Kush Grow

Hi all. I've currently got a journal going on some wwxbb, but I'm so excited, so I'm going to start this one now.

I planted 5 sensi seeds super skunk and 5 dinafem critical kush in some seeding mix last Monday. I now have 5 SS and 3 CK. just waiting on the last 2 CK to pop.

I have transferred them to solo cups with a 50/50 soil/perlite mix. I use perlite as the base for drainage. I also add in some dolomite lime. I'll run this mix the entire grow. But I'll up the pot size as we go.

Watered at 6.5 PH. No nutes needed for a while. Nutes when I will use them, will be all organic.

Veging will be done with a 400w MH in a 1mx1m tent and flowering using a 1000w HPS in a 1.2mx1.2m tent.

Ventilation is cool tubes in both with carbon filters on both tents. Internal fans etc also.

Temps run around the 25c and humidity is about 75%

If you have any questions. Fire away

i might leave two of my current wwxbb for the next grow, as its also quite a quick flowering plant, then ill have three strains :)

Not much to say, such a boring time with seeds. They all seem healthy. Two of Dianfem's critical kush were dude seeds. All of the sensi seeds popped fine. But only 3/5 dinafem, little disappointing. I've normally had good results with the.

Anyway I also have three wwxbb clones. I'll top these later on to fit in with the others.

It's going to be exciting with different strains on the go.

I did a critical kush ,last year ,it was a freebie from when I ordered some seeds ,I got 4 seeds free in total ,so put all 4 in last year so would be ready for Christmas time.
freebies I got .

1 critical kush
1 cronic thunder
1 white critical
1 pineapple skunk

the top 3 would defiantly do again ,especially the CK ,had good yield of the top 3 plants with many heads ,the pineapple skunk was left behind with a less yield ,wouldn't do that one again

Coming up a week old. Seedlings are cranking. It's quite cold so I've got a 400w MH on them about 4-10 inch depending on the outdoor temp. The bulb maintains the optimum heat haha. Some nights I'm thinking a 600 would be better.

Looking good bro are you running your lights night or day... ? if you don't mind the power bill just pump it up with the cold weather can make anyone seem like a pro but once its full summer is when your growing skills really get tested in winter when i was running the 1000 watts the top tempers where 20c it was crazy so cold but i ran them at night as the temp in the day were warmer

We're now two weeks old. I used a new nytrozime spray, which kinda burned under the light as you can see the older leaves got a bit crisp. I've just backed off on that and will purchase the other brand or used in the past with no problems.

There is also two wwxbb clones there that I just topped. To bring into the same grow.

Update photo. I've planted them into 3 gal bags. Got a 600w on them, but think I'll swap back to the 400w as I can get it closer.

I topped them today, so I expect some good growth over the next two weeks and then we should be good to flower.

So my flowering tent is now free. So I have chucked these under the 1k to veg a little longer before flipping. Will be interesting to see their growth under that sucker.

They seem to have come right from the topping they got and are booming away

Here's my latest update, just did a little more topping to get some clones.

Going to flip to flower In a few days to let them recover after last topping session.

I also defoliated a little, just to get light past some of the monster leafs that were blocking everything

Sorry about the light on in the photo

Sorry for the hps photo. Couldn't get down in time before lights on.

Anyway, update time topped the back middle one to help even it out and did a good supercrop. In the past, the plants i supercroped and defoliated yielded the most.

I'll give the girls another 3-4 days to recover before I flip, I've gotten use to seeing when the bends have healed, so when ever that happens. It's flip time. I want a big skanky yield on this grow and it's my first proper run with the 1k HPS

From past experience I think this tent is going to boom

Any advice welcomed. :)
