how can you tell how potent it is going to be if we don't even know what strain it is?

nice plants btw

Ok, a few updates!

I got sick of having my grow in the closet of the spare bedroom so I went all out and bought a Grow Tent. 1.2mX1.2mX1.8m

So here are a few photo's of how they are going in the new setup (They seem to love it, keeping temps real nice!)

I am going to Transplant the 2 biggest tomorrow and then start flowering them the following day (Give 24 hours of complete darkness before i switch to 12/12). Do you think I will get away with not transplanting the smallest one and just flowering it in the 4L pot it's currently in?

Ok Update!!

Started Flowering 3 days ago! Looking great, the sativa dominant one has just skyrocketed!!! its 22 inches!

I also transplanted 3 days before i started flowering, into 20L pots.

Here are some pics!

now your cookin,the tent looks like it suits your needs perfectly.

Yeah thanks trapper, I think it's doing it's job quite nicely!

Let's just hope I don't run out of height space now.

hi,
should defo move the lights and have a thermometer in there as you could over heat and wilt!!

hi
i think the 20l pots maybe to big seeing as your entering flowering,
the roots will be streching all the time and i pesonally think this can slow budding!"!

lol - research before you post.

There is a thermometer in there and it never gets higher then 83.4F and no lower then 72F

Remember, general rule of thumb is 1 gallon pot size to 1 foot of plant growth, therefore, 20 Litres = 4.40 Gallons which equivalates to 5 foot of plant height.

3 Gallon pots would of been sufficient, but my local nursery only had these and 1 gallon pots. I'd rather have plenty of space then be 5 weeks into flower and be root-bound.

I also see you post alot of ill-informed comments on the forum. Please research before you post.

K, thx.

nice looking plants. i really like the tent. keep it growing....

thanks fdd, you are like my "secret" idol. This means alot coming from you!

just checkin in u got a nice grow goin on how are the clones doing

not much of a secret idol now fdd lol.

My Secrets out. fdd is my lover..

Anyway, clones are doing ok, a few are fucked (rotted) but most are slowly rooting and growing new growth

Just killed my second biggest plant (The Indica looking one). Bastard turned out to be a useless male. God damnit. Anyway, I had fun killing it.

The bitch is looking great, flowering beautifully and hope to see some bud growth real soon. 3 Weeks into flowering on Tuesday, so shouldn't be too long, estimating another 6-7 weeks to go. However, I have noticed the leaves forming nice crystals on them and flowers appearing everywhere.

w00t w00t.

15 days to go!

yay!

Hey HG, it looks nice - wait till she starts to pop, that's when they start to look brutal.

I dunno what that smilie is for but it looked cool...?

So did you PK them? Go and grab some of that Searles Potash Plus liquid.
It's like $15 and it's not too late to start using it. It'll help the swell heaps IMO.

I've found through many painful deaths of little girls that keep the rockwool just left of dry after planting. Atomize them twice a day and that gives them plenty of moisture. Those rW cubes can really suck up a LOT of moisture so I think that sitting them flat on the tray over the heat mat (a necessity) is far safer than those who suggest filling the tray with water and perlite. RW just sucks it straight through the perlite even at 2" thick.

Looking good anyhow,

Grow Hard

Hey jimbo, glad you made it!

Yeah, I picked up some "Big Bud" from the hydro store last week, the guy reccomended it over the pk..

It's done wonders so far.

btw - it's in Coco in a pot

It's all done. Harvested.

8.20 oz Wet from her.

Will post pics when dry.

Peace.
