Nothing like 2 free clones!! LET THEM GROW!!

s7even · Jul 9, 2010

Ok for people who know me from my last 2 grows, this one is so much different then before! The portable closet i am currently growing in has gone under massive construction and is now much much much more suitable for growing some awesome BC bud! now wen i got these 2 babys 1 had a small infestation of spider mites but I've jumped all over them so I'm confident that they will be under controll within the next week.

I am currently using 2 massive 200W 4100k cool white cfl's i do know that i need at least 2 more in there for maximum growth and if u look at the one pick of the closet from afar but with the doors open u can see the 2 little blocks me and B have installed for 1 more socket on each side, we just need to buy some mesh screen to stop the leafs growing out to the sides and into the lights on the sides, so as of now were just going with 2. we screw in a lil mini fan up in the top left corner and with one of the shelfs we cut out 2 long rectangular holes so that wen the shelf is in the way of the fan it can still blow down to my babies, the reason for this shelf at the top is to keep all the dam cords and power bar outta the way and in a nice orderly fasion.

Ive never grown clones before always been from seeds so im open to any tips tricks that you can throw at me!

Looks good. One thing I'd do is make a reflector out of something like this http://www.lowes.com/pd_36398-85334-GV1336_4294821943_4294937087?productId=3134339
cut & bent into a hood. Then you can move all the wiring down below, and your fan can be lower. The hood can be on chains to lower it.

Sorry if I'm late!!! I'm subbed

s7even · Jul 10, 2010

ok so couple days now and i do believe the spider mites are done for but just to be shur i'll prob hit it up once more with some spray the day after tomorrow, but there both looking great! I'm really stoked because for once if I take care of them right I will see bud!

Joker209 · Jul 11, 2010

Haha yea man that's exciting isn't it? You should keep spraying them with Neem Oil at least once a week to make sure you don't get spidermites again. If you get them later in the grow it's harder than hell to get rid of them before they do significant damage to your plant if not kill it.

s7even · Jul 11, 2010

YA neem oil! wen i was lookin at some spray last week that was there. i know what it is but i just figured a insecticide would be more efficient in killing them. but there was neem oil spray mixed up and ready for use, and there was neem oil the real deal. were id have to put the lil bottle in hot watter to liquify it then mix it into a solution of hot water and soap. which do u think would be the best bet? pre mixd neem oil spray already in a spray bottle or buy the actual tube of neem oil and mix my self.

once again thx bro love your insight!

Actually you're supposed to mix the neem oil with warm soapy water. The warmth allows the plant fat to liquify and the soap keeps it from sticking to the sides and being useless inside the bottle. I mix it like this and it works. And it's only 1-2 tsp / quart... That's awesome.

Good to have you back man and yea you were missed. I was wondering what happened to you guys. It's a bit too hot for me to go outside and get some sun. I've been getting dizzy a lot lately so I think I've had enough sun for a little bit. Trying to stay inside and cool as much as possible.

I was looking at ur current grow there joker and that one plant u have there is it actually growing upside down? if so that's prob the coolest idea ever!

I like your set up I have the same closet in my garage for my veg. I am gonna redo it like your set up. +REP

Joker209 · Jul 11, 2010

I have that exact same closet for my pantry lol

s7even · Jul 12, 2010

Thx Crustu420! lots of planning went into how me and Bquamb were gunna customize it, just so u know though all the cords are at the top plugged into a power bar and were the shelf is we put notches in the end of the shef so the cord can run up the side and into the power bar without anthing in its way.... if u know wut i mean lol. and it's perfict temp in there constantly and the humidity is good to, I could always use more lights tho!

Joker209 · Jul 12, 2010

The blueberry clone is starting to grow again since we transplanted it but the hybrid looks like it has started to re-grow but at a bit of a slower rate, I'm not worried about it cuz they are 2 different types of pot so they will grow at different rates. lol joker I'll be happy to just see some bud but if they go beast on me then that's always a plus i can deal with! ^_^

s7even · Jul 14, 2010

Picture update! Unfortunately I still have a really really shitty camera..... (cell camera) but it's still better then nothing i guess... Whenever Bquamb comes over next ill make him snap a ass load of pics. but you can defiantly see the new growth starting after their resent shock.

s7even · Jul 17, 2010

More pictures!!! there both still growing nice and steady

s7even · Jul 19, 2010

still have those dam mites but im not expecting for them to die and go away easily and without a fight, lil fuckers....

Danielsgb · Jul 20, 2010

Malathion will wipe them out.

So will Take Down and Neem Oil when done correctly. You could use a hot shot fogger but I would recommend a lot lot LOT of showering them afterwards. The mites will cease to exist after all of that. You could also get a pyrethrum bomb from your local hydro shop for right around $20 (here anyway) Good luck guys. They look like they will grow nicely for you.
