Big update... Bad news though.
All of my plants in the 4x4 went to seed to they got the chop. That's what I get for using seeds from hermies. Plus it doesn't help that I screwed up the lighting schedule up for like a week and a half in the beginning. Lessons learned.
Moving right along with...
Alright so the bamboo has now been harvested. We started to lose the PM war and pulled it early. That being said I managed to get roughly 2.5 oz off of those 4 plants. All things considering, I am fairly happy of how I turned those plants around. Managed to get some fairly snowy bud, albeit kind...
Naww they came from a long line of stress, the temps don't go above 75 now because the weather changed for the cooler. It stays quite chilly in my place now. Yaaaaay!
Here is what I've got till now.
12/12 Aug 10th The two in front are being flushed with straight water and I'm going to let the other two go longer.
12/12 on Sept 9th
12/12 Aug 28th
I'll be doing a picture update later today around late evening. Just have to wait for the lights to turn on.
I have been doing battle with PM on only one of the plants but I seem to be winning and the buds are getting compact. The taller ones are going to have to go longer...
The younger...
These are into day 40 and I do have some PM problems on the smaller onesbut the bigger 2 seem to have a resistance. I'm gunning to take the smaller ones as early as possible. For now they live...
I meant they were the furthest into their 12/12 cycle... Question: So then do I start counting days into flower after I have seen pistils form?
I have 2 more starting now but I am trying to keep everything separated so no diseases spread, but the bamboo four will be done around the 10th...
Here is my general idea. I would like to start with a simple cheap steel shelfing unit and cover it in mylar and then cover that with plywood. I would probably cover the front with a blanket if I needed to.
Sorry man, I've been busy and forgot to do it... I'll get that up when the lights turn on. But on the plus side I got the seeds from sannies with some fem freebies!! Woot! Now I'm turning my attention to a good clone/veg system... I'll post my thoughts on that later. Perhaps I'll do a picture in...
Big changes, I swapped the 4 bamboo plants into the 2x4 tent under the 400 Watt and the 8 little ones are sitting under the 600 Watt light. Did a good flush for all the little ones as well. and got a new wall mounted fan for the big tent as well as another filter, which I am yet to put together...
Update: I had the 600 watt sunpulse bulb go out on me... So I set up the 400 Watt ballast as the flowering bulb until I replace the 600 and I also put the rest of the veg into 12/12... I am not having a good week with my lighting.
EDIT: 600 watt bulb has been replaced.
I transplanted the little ones into 10qt pots and made a new soil mixture for them.
3 parts Perlite
2 parts Worm Castings
2 parts Top Soil
1 part Potting Soil
1 part Coco Fiber
So far they're loving it. Pictures are to come in a day or 2.
