400 Watt pineapple chunk grow

Serious Weeds · Aug 18, 2010

Hello everyone this is my first grow journal. I have attempted many times to grow prior to this with little to no success using cfl's and no knowledge. I discovered this website after reading a book called 'how to grow 8oz for less then $100) and since then i have learned alot form everyone on this website and here i am now

The setup: 4x4x4.5ft box with 400 watt Mhc and Hps from Htg supply. lined with mylar exhaust fan I sort of rigged up from computer fans. with 1 intake coming from ac house vent. and inside i have humidifier and window mounted ac on side of box. pictures here start with youngest pics at day 5 started four in soil filled party cups covered with baggies only three sprouted under light running 18/6 older pics are from today day 9 I think can not remember exactly growing pineapple chunk from attitude seeds. In Happy Frog soil ( think it is same as fox farms) in three gallon grow bags. have not been using ac have been able to keep temps below 90F have fan constantly running on them and will probably transplant soon maybe 2 more days.
Would enjoy any input and will keep updated. with pics :weed:

Here we go :joint:

Day 11 Transplanted into three gallon grow bags.(cut bags a little short so maybe 2 1/2 gallon)
Something strange about these plants everyone had first set of real leafs slighty yellow only first two leafs on each side though.
but other then that everything seems to be doing well.
What do you think? let me know if you see something I'm doing wrong OR have any ideas. Thanks

It's day 17 and decided to do a update everything seems to be doing fine. The one closest in the picture has leaves that are folded in and upward, not exactly sure what it was took light little further from the plants. I was thinking maybe they were getting a bit hot. secondary growth is coming in and looking ok. Feeding every other watering with 2 tbs of grow big to gallon of water.
Do you think I could add more or would it be smarter to just take it easy.?

I think they are doing great and you should not try to rush them with too many nutes.

I've subbed to your journal and am looking forward to seeing how they develop - day 17 certainly looks great.

G.O.D.

Yeah I guess I better not rush it and take the chance of killing Them. Thanks for the feed back G.O.D and odlaw.

Yeah I will be using switching to HPS for flowering. But I am going to try and make one clone of each before I do. I am kinda wondering about the tallest of mine right now all of the new growth have purple on the top sides the the stems and only on that one. other two all green I'll post some pics.

plant's are look healthy, when you switching to flowering?

Serious Weeds · Aug 28, 2010

Well everything is looking good on all of them so I guess it's not to big of a thing.Just wondering why it is on only the one?
But if anyone knows what it means to have strips of purple on your stems let me know.
Much appreciated. :bigjoint:

As soon as I can take a clone off each I will switch light I don't think it will be much longer I also plan on binding over the taller one to do a little training.

Will do. There really is not to much info on it atm. Hopefully it has a great taste and decent high.

I've smoked it but have yet to grow it, and to be totally honest its an all around great smoke, you'll see real soon the smell is a sort of sweet fruity funky cheesey smell and all the characteristics come out in this strain, it is in my definate top 3 of all times..very sought after here where i live couch lock though...Have fun!!

Subbed, I want to be able to compare my CFL grow to the big boy lighting.

odlaw · Aug 28, 2010

i havent worried bout it personally but would be nice to see if it is actually an issue or just genetics hope some has an answer for ya lol

kether noir · Aug 29, 2010

I am thinking it is probably genetics hopefully not a male or something (herm) it seems pretty healthy except for leafs curling in.
