150w HPS BAGSEED FIRST HYDRO GROW

Bienvenidos all. This is my first grow using bagseeds, a 150w HPS, GH Flora Nutes, and a homemade drip system fashioned from a rubbermaid cooler. I think it is pretty sweet

First off, the equipment. As I said a 150 watt hps


a vornado humidifier, cuz it's dry here

and last but not least the cooler chopped and converted into a drip system using rockwool and hydroton pushed with a 185 gph pump. check it out and let me know what you think!

I followed a tutorial somewhere in the DIY section, I dont have any way to test the co2 levels though, so I dont know if it helped or not. what I can tell you is if you decide to try this method yourself BE CAREFUL. I used too much yeast and it bubbled the entire bottle full of shit which flowed down the tube that was supposed to release the co2 over my plant. I spent the next hour cleaning my light reflector with q tips. some of that yeast got into my medium, I figured it would be ok till the next day when i was planning on doing the flush and clean anyways. next morning it looked great, then over the course of an hour it did this. I did the flush and it straightened back up within an hour. scary.

after we got over the yeast scare I topped it and tried to root the top. hopefully it takes.

Alright, I think it has been 2 weeks now since my last update, figured it was time for another. The clone has taken root and is now in *her* own net pot. I'm pretty proud of myself The mother is also doing very well since the topping, all of which you can see in the following pictures.

I see that some people are checking out my grow, but no one has given me any feedback! feel free to post your questions or comments in my journal, I don't mind. In fact, I encourage it. without further delay I present to you...the photos...

today I began the transition phase, over the course of the next week I will be slowly cutting back the amount of light the plant receives by an hour a day. Next week the flowering process will be in full swing so everyone keep your fingers crossed cuz the last one I grew was a male and it PISSED ME OFF! as everyone should know i have invested a LOT of time and money into this and i would like to see a little return on my investment this time around! guess I will find out soon enough. happy growing all.

Yesterday was the first day of 12/12 and tomorrow is when the nutrients will make their switch from transition into full on bloom. Since no one is subscribed to my grow except me I dont really see much point in updating photos, being as i see them every day. anyways, i will update the photos for the *65* people who have viewed this when there are buds to report.

well it's over. the plant was a male and i chopped it down. looks like im going to have to put the growing on hold for a while; my girl is having a baby. cant grow herb and grow kids in the same house, at least until the policy gets a little better. keep on keepin on everybody, happy growing. nugsnotguns, signing off.

Sorry to here about the dudes but hey congrats on the new baby!
