2x2x5 Grow Lab - Reserva Privada Headband ... [ 100w T5 veg / 250w HPS flower ]

sub'd up, best of luck to ya

Day 10

They are doing better today... Is it possible they were curling because I was hitting them with too much fan? That or it was an overwatering issue that took 3 days to correct itself

Either way they are perked back up again... I hope they take off soon, but I know they are growing valuable roots right now when I don't see any new leaves.

Definitly gonna sub this one. I just started my first medical grow and doing it in a box similar to size maybe a half foot difference in both L x W. Mine are a lil older sprouted the day before halloween. My wintergreen OG is doing spectacular and leaving the other 2 behind lol. 1 of the others looks great just a lil slow i think do to the cheap soil I used for that one and the other one idk what happened it is way behind. One day i noticed it only had 1 leaf coming out the middle and was worried, checked for bugs that could of eaten it or anything but couldnt find any sign of what happened. so i left it and it would just refuse to grow so as a last ditch effort i threw just a lil nutes and sparked the lil bugger back to life, leafs doubled in size in less the 48 hours. Well cant wait to watch your grow as were only like a week difference or so...

Nice my man... Keep em' perky...

Here's a pic I snapped yesterday morning'...

I think it's awesome...



About to snap some more...

We are rockin' now .


Day 13 Veg

Snapped a pic after misting the top soil...


So far this reserva privada headband looks good... Leaves are rugged, short so far.. and it smells awesome .

I cant wait until the roots get more established so I can plant it in its final pot of ocean forest..... I'm going to have to get some nutes soon. Superthrive and root 66 is on my list, as well as fox farms line and a new carbon pre filter ...

they look nice nice

Thanks

Yeah they are starting to kick ass... Must have got a good root structure going by now

Day 16

interesting phenotypes

roots now coming through the bottom.... thinking of transplanting in 4ish days

Thanks for the link buddy..

Hell yeah looking good Verde... Cant wait to watch these babies... Very interested in possibly growing the RP Headband in the future if it pans out to be anything like the 707 Headband..


So your really going to start flowering them at 6 inches tall? Id think you would have time to wait a little longer then that, your cab isnt that small..



I recommend a Scrog, very nice and easy, really helps to have an even canopy when height could potentially be a problem..

thanks for joining

I've heard this strain will do 3.5x stretch for the first 20-30 days of flower.. I'm keeping these on the small side though definitly.. for fun .... this isn't my first run i'm just playing with what i can do right now

That damned gyrating otter..

I'm stoked that I found this,
I was literally searching for something like this a few days before you started this thread.


I've got a couple unmarked containers, I'm 99% sure they're Headband/Trainwreck.
I've already got a Sativa, so I'm on the quest for some Headband.

Gonna use this as a comparison, and I expect nothing but clean gardening


Holy shit, +250% Stretch? 78 day Flowering time?
I take back what I said, this sounds even more Sativa than what I've got.

78 days.. I hope to god mine doesn't take that long, or I'll probably trash it unless it's golden.

Thanks for joining

Yeah I hear they fill out what stretches though

Good luck with your stuff...

My plants don't seem too happy..... I don't know if it's the soil (FF light warrior)... the light or the strain.... it's all new to me... but they are curling somewhat....

It looks almost like they are root bound, but they just came through the bottom yesterday? Oh well, they are growing slow but it will be sorted once they are transplanted into their final pots with Fox Farms Ocean Forest .

edit : Perhaps they are simply not getting enough oxygen with this clay pot with a single hole on the bottom?

I've had nothing but good results from terracotta pots (My favorite)
They all have good drainage, but the lower levels of your medium should also consist of well draining materials.

I'm assuming overwatering is your problem, good luck.
Dude fuck your otter, it slows my computer down when I try to type.


By the way, during week 3-4 of veg, (I'm assuming that would be ABOUT day 35-42 from seed)
For more females;
•~70% Humidity
•65*F-75*F (70*F optimal)
•More blue light (MH, or 5000k+)
•Shorter veg days, 15-18 hours of light per day.
•N>P>K as far as ratios go. (like 3-2-1 for example)
•No stress in the last week or two. (Topping, pruning, overwatering, underwatering, too much light, heat, repotting, etc)

Don't know if you knew this, but it encourages more Females from seed.

For sure... These are femmed seeds so I'm not worried... I tend to go the *safe* route with my little two plant setup

If only I had a mom and some space for that fat lady

I'm pretty much running 55% humidity, 78F at canopy level.. 100w 6500K floro... 20 hours on / 4 off.... no nutes... no training


Going to bring down a 250w 32,000 lumen air cooled HPS to flower them.... of course

Ahh missed the bit about Feminised seeds haha.

Do a Bonsai Mum. If that's what you were talking about. I love mine.

I'd need another small tent which I don't have And I don't keep strains running all year... It gets too hot..... thats my problem ..... though its winter now so lights on baby !

Small tent for Bonsai Moms?

As lame as it sounds, just do a PC stealth case with some CFL's in it, and keep a couple mothers.
I know you can keep that cold enough in the summer.

Hey Verde. Just cought up in the thread. looking good. For the mom you could keep them in a small little like 1x1x3 with a bunch of cfl's up top. If you bonsai you could have a few if you wanted. those you could control the temps better and even give them low lightduring the summer...but you could keep them year around. give yourself a little project during the summer too

But then I would need additional room to run more plants to find a good mom . If your going to have a mom you should insure it is a good pheno...

Day 19

Plants have been looking like shit the last 2-3 days... I doubt it's overwatering, as I watered on the 16th day and watched the leaves curl worse as the soil dried.... I think they were suffering from a lack of nutrients or something... I was using FF light warrior the first time and I definitely like a 30% perlite 70% FFOF mix for seedlings instead. Today on the 19th day the lower leaves began to yellow - a sign of a lack of nitrogen....

I had intended to pop them in their final pot a little before the 3rd week, so today I did. I found the roots curling around the bottom and a few finding their way out the drain hole..


I put them in what I have been told is like a 10-11 liter square bucket... Filled with Fox Farms Ocean Forest...my shit... the stuff I'm used to...... I also added a few handfuls of some perlite to the bottom of the pots... for the first 5 inches and mixed it up, to let the roots breathe towards the bottom a little.




___

before the transplant..looks like shit I know . Tell me about it Also seriously small for 19 days. Perhaps I should have not been lazy and picked up nutes before today .









after the transplant.... not going to look like shit for long Now I'm wondering why I didn't do half ffof half fflw for the first pots... That would have been enough nutes but still airy .... I'm a stoner.. what can I say..



You guys ready to see some plants take off? Should be awesome for the next week. I hit them with some thrive alive in the water today... I let them soak before I transplanted and soaked the soil a little after the transplant. So they should bounce back rather quickly they love that stuff.
