AKPOG Posted March 14, 2019 Author Share Posted March 14, 2019 Hello everyone I think I am at day 12 from seed wetting, well there or abouts, as the Blue Hash was a 2nd seed as the first didn't sprout for whatever reason, so she's a few days late Dinachem 2 is a bit stunted to the rest, but that could be down to potting up shock. Sadly, I was correct when I thought I'd inadvertently killed the Blue Widow But fear not, as I think 6 would be a bit much in my tent anyway & I've decided I'm going to do a Blue Widow garden grow, so I'll pop another seed soon & add her in to get her started, then she'll go to the big outdoors Back to my Dinafem selection for indoors: I thought I'd add, they are currently in an 80cm square veg tent, roots lapping up the Tropic Batmix & a light feed of Samurai Katana Roots. The lamp they are currently under is a Twin BrightWing fluorescent. They'll soon start to rocket & once a few nodes have developed they'll be transferred to my flowering 1.2m square tent under a 600W HPS. Until next time...... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinafem-Mark Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) 5 happy and healthy Dinafem girl's just doing their thing at this early stage @AKPOG How much power/light are these babies under mate? Also, how long do you plan on vegging(18/6) for before you move the girls to your flower tent? All the best Mark..

AKPOG Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Hi @Dinafem-Mark, thanks for popping by My twin BrightWing fluorescent is excellent for seedlings, cuttings & small plants & totals 110W with two 55W florescent bulbs. Sorry, I thought I'd mentioned my light, but see now I missed the wattage, so thanks for pointing that out Normally if I'm currently flowering they stay in that tent until I can move them on. But as I've recently just setup my entire grow for this year & have made some changes to keep the floor clean, such as bringing my intake down from the top of the tent using a diffuser to fan out the air over the top of my plants I hope it works well, or I've fucked it I just finished it yesterday I was going to wait until I've potted them up in about a week before giving them my intense 600W HPS, but I'm now toying with the idea to stick them straight under the 600W tonight, to speed up vegging, so I can pot up to 7ltr pots, then 4 lucky ladies will get the 11ltr pots & therefore an additional potting up stage, I'll let them root out until I see them coming out the bottom & then flower power time ETA: By the way, I'm on 19/5 at the moment, mainly because its more convenient, not because the extra hour is supposed to align with the moon & guarantee me 10oz per plant Edited March 18, 2019 by AKPOG 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time for the big light All the best Mark.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKPOG Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 Ok, I've transferred my ladies into my big tent & they are currently simmering under 400W, which I'll up to 600W in a few days time. Here's my tent with the ladies in there, yes they WILL fill the tent Here is Amnesia 1 up close Amnesia 2 Blue Hash Dinachem 1 Dinachem 2 Until next time 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Looking clinically great in here @AKPOG wish my flower room was free. I really need to upgrade my little kitchen cupboard type of veg room. All the best dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep them dimmed down to the 400w for the next 5-7 day's then crank the ballast upto 600w Perfect All the best Mark.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinafem-Mark Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 @AKPOG I assume you are using a dimmable ballast? All the best Mark.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokebelch Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) @AKPOGLooking awesome in here dude, a lovely looking clean tent for the ladies. Like I said in my diary 11 litre pots are the ones to use with 5 plants, I would only use 6 litre pots in a 120 x120 tent for 7 or more plants. Good luck with them dude.

Smokebelch Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) If you have the time why not try veging them up in those final pots for a week longer than you normally do, you said you usually get 0.7 to 0.9 gpw, you should get more than that if you veg them up for another week. It all depends how much time you have really dude. Edited March 18, 2019 by Smokebelch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKPOG Posted March 23, 2019 Author Share Posted March 23, 2019 Small update Dinachem 1 is rocketing up faster than the others, her roots have filled the pot & I've potted her up into a 4litre pot tonight. The others are just getting used to the 600W, which I switched into last night & like a noob forgot to raise the bulb, which is why they look a little heat stressed Here are the roots of Dinachem 1 Here she is before putting up And here is a group shot after potting her up (sorry but I couldn't be arsed pulling them out from under the HPS): Until next time 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKPOG Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Thanks @Dinafem-Mark , much appreciated I've just potted up the other 4 tonight & they are simmering under the 600W again, but with the bulb much higher, as they didn't seem to like 1.5m with the 600 previously, so for the past few days they have had 400W. Here's a group shot: When they start filling out these 4 litre pots I'll pull each one out of the tent for a better photo, as the HPS jaundice yellow is never attractive Until next time 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokebelch Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 @AKPOGLooking awesome in here Pogs, they should put a nice vigorous growth spurt now you have potted them up. Keep up the good work dude. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
