3 White Widow DWC lots of pics!

Hi fellow growers. I am up to day 13 into flower and until this point I have been updating a grow journal on GC (http://forum.grasscity.com/hydroponic-grow-journals/977192-stealth-grow-5-ww-super-box.html) but it wasn't working out to well lol no feedback whats so ever. Rollitup has always been my 2nd go to forum and now I am going to give it a chance with a grow journal haha hope yall enjoy. Please feel free throwing down any advice for me. I am new to growing and I could use the help.

Ok so I have continued to super crop and top over the last few days, I believe I should stop soon and because of the space restriction I went ahead and threw my ScrOG net back in too . Check it out...

Day 13 Flower

very very nice my friend. thats a good idea to use that orange plastic for the scrog. im definitely following this, i love white widow pics! but to save space and get more replies, figure out how to upload pics without them taking up the whole screen

looks great man. looks like your running cfl?

Thanks bro, pull a chair up and kick back.... I picked up a 18 foot roll of it for like 35 bucks at home depot. Kind of ghetto but it works eh?

I'll also look into getting smaller pictures

Yah, just a 250w CFL... I was thinking about getting a new light for the next grow around, or even a whole new custom grow box .

Day 13 of flower, and no puffballs? hmm... I do supercrop while in flower.. but I wouldn't top during flower... just a heads up. You're stressing your plant too much & may have sacrificed some yield.

No puffballs, yet The only one im still questioning the sex on is the first picture. Today little balls showed up but only on the very top node. I will be watching it closely. I topped it this morning hopefully I didn't lose to much yield but previous to the topping this morning it was the only plant I had yet to prune. In the last week it had grown over 4 inches. This may be a sign that it could be a male/hermie. I did use bag seeds so it's always a possibility.

I also just realized I have been running a 13 hours on 11 hours of light cycle for the last 2 weeks. I just switched it to a 11 off 13 on. I don't think this error is that big of deal but maybe someone can correct me if im wrong.

Thanks

More light intensity will work wonders, lots of shaded growth. id leave the net for now, tie stems down to the pots or tray, really you want a big spread and all the tips getting good light. Later on in flower id net up, but on your scale may not be neccesary. Good goin and dont worry about the light time, too early and not much of a worry anyway. You can try usina a 14h dark period to accelerate maturity, if u do this for too long, you will lose yield. Last 2 days i do it.

Just select 12/12. You want all the light you can get, and 12/12 is proven thousands of times over. After the weeks in 13/11 you should have your plants on their tiptoes ready to flower.
Whose (breeder) WW is it? Reg or fem? cn

wow nice job, is this your first grow with the superbox? im on my first grow with it and im loving it, just having some pythium probs and root rot which was causing ph to drop, and they just finished 6th day of 12/12 so i added some h2o2 and the ph started rising lol. so if your having any pythium/algae/root-rot probs you should prolly put a little h2o2 or get a product like dm-zone or hydrogaurd or something..

A buddy of mine, a couple months back, purchased a lb which had a good 30 seeds in it. He gave then all to me and here we are... I was told it was white widow haha but it's hard to know for sure. But whatever it is, it was some dank.

Yesterday was my last day to super crop and today after work I am going to try and tie some stems down, out of the way of the bud sites that are trying to push up.

I have had a couple trials and errors previous to this one, haha I literally had know idea what I was getting myself into until 2 weeks after germination LOL.

Sense than I have learned a couple good/cheap/efficient ways to help protect my roots from harmful things such as root rot and algae.
1) H202 - as you stated, great a killing bacteria while oxygenating your water (double plus)
2) RapidStart - this stuff is amazing for establishing and maintain healthy root structures HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
3) frozen water bottles - I keep 6 frozen water bottle in my freezer, anytime I check my water temp and it is above 68
Degress I'll immediately switch out 2 16 Oz water bottles.

If you are having root problems, H202 will definiately kol off the root rot/algae. but if you do not attempt to change the environment within which is causing the root rot you will just keep running into the same problem. H202 is a good temporary fix for it but one cannot rely on it during the whole grow.

Sorry for the grammar issues and if that was a short to the point response haha, I'm on my phone at work right now but for real Kobe, let me know if you have any questions, especially about errors retaining to the super box. I'll do anything I can to help ensure you settle with some quality smoke

Kobe, feel free to "hijack" my thread as much as you'd like. Upload pictures ask questions and tell stories haha... This thread is mainly here to serve hopefully as a reference guide to those who are growing in a super box or plan to, and plus, I check the thread pretty regularly and love conversation and small talk

Us newbs shall learn together

thanks dude, i just finished 7th day of flowering and there is still some stretching going on, some of the plants havent started preflowering yet so im just trying to be patient. im planning on picking up some aquashield hopefully tomorrow, i hope i can mix it with the h2o2 ive been adding.. so are your plants starting to bud yet?

Im beginning to see some small hairs popping out, they look a little different than the sex pistil. Im afraid my light cycle error may have caused a little delay.

i think i know what your talking about, those arent preflowers. soon youll see some calyx with pistils sticking out... this thread might be helpful to you http://www.420magazine.com/forums/budding-cycle/81272-female-pre-flowers-flowering.html
i hope everything goes well with your grow!!

im having some issues. alot of root rotting and i saw some fungus gnats on my roots!.. i bought some gognats and i added probably a little too much. its sort of clogging my airstones and making em worse than they were lol.. i didnt think hydro would be so difficult! constantly running into little problems lol... ive also been adding some 3% peroxide.. im not sure what else im gonna do.. i was either thinking of using something to flush my system but i cant take out all of the water and bucket since the plants are tied down, and the waterpump leaves a little remaining water with nasty pithium and dead roots in there..
i was also told to try hygrozyme but ive read alot of mixed reviews so im hesitant, but if it gets any worse ill have no choice!

3% H2O2 will kill your plants!!! You are using the wrong % !!! Food Grade H2O2 above 30%
