How is my grow? Check out the pics!

Here are some pics of my current grow.... it is my first...

I also need a question answered about my lights.

I have a 400w metal halide, and a 1000w High Pressure Sodium.

What would be better to use for veg? I know that MH is usually better, but with the 1000w would it be better for veg?

You can go 1000watt HPS Thru the veg and flower

kingnewb · Mar 8, 2008

And the 1000w will be better than the 400w MH for vegging?

I would say use the mh, its not like your plants are huge yet.

Agreed

The plants are too small to need a 1000w of light

The blue spectrum of the MH will help them grow faster, thicker, and better

you will get better results in the flowering phase with HPS...

These are pics from 3-11. I have added another ballast, so now I am running the 1000w HPS and 400w MH. The pictures I took are next to a MH bulb so that you can compare the size of them.

I wanted to ask you guys about my dwarf. As you can see in the pictures, this plant is about 2 inches tall, and has 3 healthy, but tiny sets of leaves. All around the plant is very healthy, green, no dead leaves... I just dont understand why its so small. Her name is Tiny.

On another note, I havent watered in 4 days, and the plants are loving it. The soil holds moisture well, but they are enjoying the oxygen to their roots.

I've also updated my watering mixture to this

Hydrogen Peroxide
Epsom Salt
Jack's classic 20-20-20

I've also began foliar sprays with seltzer water, and a very diluted nute solution (1/8 of packaging recommendations)

All in all, I'm very happy with their growth... keep watching for updates.

there starting to look more healthy now!in the other pics they looked abit yellow,now there taking on a dark green colour so things are looking good,,,and tiny might just be a runt,you get um sometimes,,,,peace

they look MUCH MUCH better - great turn around! wouldn't worry too much about the dwarf - maybe it will have a spurt and get as big or bigger as the others - if not - well you still have other plants.

lookin good boy

strictly'dope74 · Mar 12, 2008

they look good and i can't really say anything about the lights, but i thought i see some kind of tin foil in one of the pics get rid of it if it is becuase tin foil is no good for plants it just turns light energy to heat energy and creates hot spots, use Mylar or a flat white. anyways keep up the good work.
