48" T5 HO 4 bulb. Was a cheap ebay light. I only run two bulbs. Gueismann aquablue + and I think it gueismann midday or a 10k.
I like my light on the bluer spectrum.
Gave the girls their first ferts last night (Day 11)
10 ml buddha grow
5ml ancient amber
mosquito dunk (fuck you gnats)
10ml trinity.
no point in adding oregoinismx since I topdressed with some cinnamon. it would just kill it off.
I topped the Chocolope and purple wreck.
I think I will let purple haze and hawiian go a bit longer before I do.

no i would FIM caefully, that is actually a sativa trait i can show you later i will throw a pic up of some mexican sativas, i had one of them i Fimmed and one i did not side by side for the exact same reason your asking yourself right now, because both had that center structure the one i fimmed grew like i wanted, the one i did not sat for a few days looking like yours, then took off at the top.

fim on right but you get the idea those branches have been that size since they formed, the other on the right expanded much better. same time same nutes, same evertrhing down to the genetics
just a fim vs no fim.

I FIM-ed as suggested.. altho i don't really get the difference between topping and FIM. I mean I know you leave some of the leaf material but other than that what's the difference?

well if you did it correctly your top will grow back like mine did. i guess it kinda looks topped in th pic with the leaves blocking and all but there are normal fan leaves that actually about 2-3 nodes above where i fimmed. if you fim correcly the little leaf area you cut will continue to grow after a while if you did it wrong it will shrivel up and die and just be a topped plant. fimming does take practice but once you get it down youll find yourself fimming all over the place.

Wen't to water the babies this morning and noticed somethings been having its way with them.
Saw a small brown lump on a leaf so I touched it and it smeared. Another one took off running. So I grabbed the babies and looked them over. Two of them have these little bastards on them.
Bigger and faster than I was lead to believe spider mites where. So any ideas? I checked over the plants vegging next to them and didn't see any signs of these bastards.

I got a positive ID on them from the other forum. Winter grain mites. Looked over my girls really good while spraying them down with neem and didn't see any signs of them. Just the seedlings. But, I did spray the other plants down several weeks ago so they may of just been avoiding them. Probably came in with my white worm culture (feed to fish). They usually have some kind of mite or another in them.You better nip these bastards fast.............their not funny like gnats

Day 17 veg
Titties where off to a slow start but now that they are in their pots and under the LED they are finally starting to take off.
Been having PH issues across the board in the gardens. Still trying to nail down my soil mix. New Kelway PH probe works great. PH 6.3 so I'm getting there.
Several Phenotype already evident.
Entire outside of my home is covered in those mites. I sprayed the hell out of ortho home defense around all my doors, windows and baseboards. Inside the grow neem oil has been keeping them at bay.

Note the one VERY indica leaning pheno and the Very sativa heavey one a few pics up. The rest appear to be a fair mix of the two.
