Newb Closet Coco Grow, 400w MH+HPS

[mared juwan]

Hey thanks Mared.
I'm gonna head down the nursery on the weekend and check 'em out.
There's heaps of different species and I can always get seeds off ebay if I can't find seedlings.
Last grow was the first time I've ever had a problem with the little buggers.
I used some hypoaspis which kept numbers down but still didn't totally get rid of them.
Plus the hypos were really expensive.
I've bleached everything down so I may not even have the same trouble next go round but those little shitters really love moist coco.
I'd like to put some of those sundews in just for preventative measures anyway.
I think a few of them in a confined space should work wonders.
Thanks again for the info mate.

Yea they should help out. One thing I forgot to mention is if the leaves (more like petals) start to turn dark red that means you have too much light on them. I had them up on a shelf and they couldn't take the full light of my flower lights even at 12/12 and the outermost petals turned very dark red then purple and got crispy and died. So put them in a place that doesn't have the full direct light. Down around the pots on the floor is good because that's where the bugs hang out anyway.

mared of all the greenhouse strains you have which is the fastest biggest one? the great white?

That's a tough one actually. The GWS had a big early lead with pistils shooting out really long. The White Rhino had slower and smaller initial pistil growth but now buds are building on top of buds and I can see tower-like calyx formation happening so those two are actually even at this point. The Trainwreck also hase a very fat top cola going but it is nearly twice as tall as the others so that shouldn't really count.

I'm loving the way the LS is coming along.
Thanks to both you and Mammath for bringing up the sundew plant....damn Mared, you should of shared that one with me while I was getting neurotic about those gnats a few weeks back.
I've never seen a plant like that in any of my local garden shops.

My bad, I thought I had posted it around sufficiently. The place I got them wasn't really a garden shop but a big nursery place with a mega garden shop in the middle. This place is huge so you're right, they might not have them everywhere.

man'o'man'o'man .... wowzzaaa! wowzzaa! wowzzaaa!! yes I have to say everything three times ... its that Peruvian latin South American thingy in me ... hahahaha! oh and by-the-way .... you're out of tissues .... and there's still a mess to clean up .... but .... ummm ... srryy!

LOL thanks man. I'll get the tissues restocked.

Are you gonna update with a few pics? I've started a couple of ghsc ssh but they are growing sooo slowly. What happened to your ssh?

My SSH seed germed but never sprouted, remember? But don't give up on yours because my Lemon Skunk was a slow grower and pissing me off big time but she is turning into a beauty now. I had to stop giving her base nutes. Only Ionic Boost and calmag for the last three weeks. Just way too much nitrogen in my base nute for this strain. You can see that the leaves are back to normal color and flattened out a slight bit more, but most important there is loads of new pistil growth and the buds look dank. The smell is like lemon Pez candy.

Those are the only recent pics I have and the lights are off right now. They're all doing great though. Great White Shark smells SO dank and I'm starting to get some interesting coloring to the leaves. Not purple but a shadow effect to the edges that looks pretty cool. Same with the White Rhino. I am starting to flush all but the Lemon Skunk in a few days so we should see what kind of color potential we really have. I've seen some purple pheno Trainwreck that looked awesome. I've actually heard that in general the purple phenos of a given strain are less potent but the beautiful show they put on while they're growing makes up for it if you ask me.

This purple strain in the pic below is plenty potent, I know that.

Here's the progress on the Green House girls.

Great White Shark - smell says a lot and this one smells the best right now, no contest. Real heavy diesel skunk odor. Very promising.

White Rhino - still smells like a pineapple but there's a bit of hashy scent creeping in and if it keeps shooting out pistils like this the top cola will be bigger than my leg pretty soon LOL.

Cheese - IDK about this one. Smells a lot like one of the Nirvana Bubblelicious I grew which I would rather not repeat. Been there done that. By appearances it looks a lot better than the Bubblelicious but I trust my nose more.

Trainwreck - Verdict is still out on this one too. A little bit of fruity funk but nothing overpowering. At least the yield looks decent compared to the Lemon Skunk behind it LOL.

Lemon Skunk - you already know about this one. Yields for shit. Smells like super lemon pez candy.

These pics, as usual, were from a couple days ago. It takes so long to upload to photobucket and rotate pics where necessary that I lose motivation half way through and then get around to finishing two days later. So anyways, I'm looking to start chopping in about a week. Great White Shark and Cheese appear to be slated first for the block.

All your plants are looking good but the gws and white rhino are my favorites..Those are some thick as colas...

 

[mared juwan]

Thanks, to be honest I wish they would chill out on getting bigger and just fill in. I found a spot of mold in one of the colas in the last BC Roadkill I chopped. Sucks because I already have a dehumidifier and my humidity stays below 42% always. The Roadkill is super dense though so hopefully these babies don't fuzz up on me.

fuckin sweet bro! im tryin to upload pics now in my tread now but its not letting me, nice looking girls.

 

[buckd316]

Which cheese is it?

 

[oscaroscar]

That GWS looks ready now, to me it does anyway lol. Your pics always make me drool. Great stuff Mared

 

[sancho]

mj did you get any any nanas on those GWS? you might have posted it but i havnt read this whole thread yet ty+rep on those nice plants

 

[mared juwan]

Which cheese is it?

All these are Green House Seeds strains.

That GWS looks ready now, to me it does anyway lol.

Needs a few more days for maximum dankness.

mj did you get any any nanas on those GWS? you might have posted it but i havnt read this whole thread yet ty+rep on those nice plants

No bananas so far on any of these GH fem seeds. Don't want to jinx it but I am very pleased so far.

 

[Mammath]

They are all looking sooo good mared.
Great growing mate.
I'd give that GWS a bit more time too.
Even though you have a good percentage of brown stigma I think she's still got some finishing to do.

 

[mared juwan]

Right on man. The trichomes under the scope are almost all cloudy but a few clear left and no amber so I'm thinking about a week left.

 

[sancho]

im looking fwrd to hearing how the GWS it is, i hope you post or pm me after that first try mj! ,how long do you cure for?
