Heres my latest grow from seed. I have 4 different strains but 5 plants. These are NOT feminized. Im using my stealth grow dresser w/carbon filter and Pro-Grow 180.

Im growing in 7" pots that were modified into airpots. They will remain here until sexed and then females will be transplanted to 2 gallon homemmade airpots. Im hoping for 3 females but 2 will be fine.

Strains
1 x Alphakronik - Alphadawg
1 x Strawberry Bubba
1 x Chocolate Banana Kush
2 x East Coast Sour Diesel

Nutrients
Foxfarm trio

Soil
Foxfarm Ocean Forest

Glad to have yoi aboard!

Just a picture update. All are doing very well. So far they are responding very well to the led light.. Alphadawg is looking excellent..

Just a quick update with pictures. Alphadawg exploded over the past couple days. East Coast Sour Diesels are doing great. Chocolate Banana Kush is still curved but slowly getting stronger. The Strawberry bubba is a major runt right now. As you will see from the pictures, something was wrong with the first sets of leaves. New leaves look just fine and i'm hoping it'll start getting a little bigger soon..

i also am interested in buying a pg180. i subbed also. happy growing!
Glad to hear it. I read up a lot on the pg180 and found it to work its magic best in small spaces. I guess we'll see ;) the quality feels very solid. The hangers could be a Lil thicker but for the led unit its fine. The ratchet hanger included really comes in handy... light is too bright too look at with both spectrums on. You really shouldn't be looking directly at it anyway but I gave myself and a buddy a quick "flash to the face" <nacho libre accent..

during flowering, is the red led enough? or is it necessary to use the full spectrum to get enough power? im thinking that if its only on the red setting, it doesnt produce as much as a purpose built flower led panel. for my purpose, i will only be using the led panel for flowering. thanks for the help

Alot of the grow journals i've seen use both spectrums during flowering and in my opinion, it only helps. The more light the better. During the transition from veg to flower, i think its best to use just red to help induce flowering. << thats what i read in a grow journal anyhow. After they sex, i see them switch to full spectrum. If your having heat issues or something i would imagine you could use just the red spectrum but the LED puts out so little heat, that really shouldn't be a problem. I actually put a 42watt 6400k CFL hanging to create some heat in the box.

AlphaDawg has exploded with growth. It's already bigger than the pot it's in with no signs of it possibly being root bound. I think that means the homemade airpots are working ;) I cut the tops on AlphaDawg and the larger Sour Diesel. I wanted to veg longer but I can't as some things came up. Anyhow, i'm waiting for 3 nodes before topping the other 3. I'm cutting only 50% of the top just to slow vertical growth and encourage side branching for more buds ;)

Chocolate Banana Kush and Strawberry bubba are finally coming along.

Quick Pic Update... All of them are doing great! Getting much bigger. Switched to 12/12 on April 2, 2012. I ran just red spectrum for the past couple days but decided to adjust light height and hit em with full spectrum. No signs of any kind of deficiency's so far ;)

Alphadawg is 100% FEMALE! the preflower hairs are very small but unmistakable.. I'm so glad alphadawg was a female cause she's growing so vigourously.. tons of branching that are coming up so hopefully ill hit that 1.5 oz mark on her ;)

Cool I've been waiting for you to get back into action. Looks like you have a sweet setup and some solid genetics. That Alphadawg should be amazing. I was very impressed with the quality of Alphakroniks Jackpot Royale, Bandana, and SnowdawgBX. I have all three of those strain going now along with Spacedawg and a bunch of other Bodhi gear. Can't wait to see how the babies grow up. Hope you get a female Choco Banana.

Man thanks for stopping by! i've been really pleased with the alphadawg and sour diesels.. they've been growing exceptionally well. The choc ban and strawberry bubba have been a little slow but are getting along in size finally. I think i can tell which are female and which are male even without the preflowers based on the growth patterns.. its like the males are not as dense as females and are taller and have fewer "budsites".. i don't know for sure but we'll see.. I predict 1 sour diesel to be female and the choc ban and bubba kush to be female.. they all look like i think a female should look but what do i know? LOL! The ole lady is pullin for the choc bana to be female as well! :)

Quick Pic Update.. Growth is still going strong. No signs of sex on the other 4 just yet. They have been under 12/12 for 6 days.

Picture perfect health! Those look fantastic. I'm kinda jealous. I really want to try that Alphadawg. I havent gotten to give it a go yet. Too many other strains on my list and projects I have yet to finish. From what I hear tho, the Alphadawg is top notch. My friend grows it and says he rather likes his. Can't wait to see these start making Buds.
