Grow Box

awesome man looking beutifull. imagine once you can do that on a full scale grow :) badass micro grow though :)
Im building 4 SCRoG pots right now im going to try that next run, see if i cant get a little more out of the plants and cut down on the sizing issue i was having. Also I am thinking of setting up a 600 HPS to do 4 more plants since i recently just moved i have ALLOT more room then im my old place so i maybe be getting to that Bigger grow very soon!

and you still have min 4 weeks before them buds are ripe....let em ride
Yea im getting pretty pumped they smell so good love that room! as it looks rights now there is 2-3 oz that will come off the 4 plants, and 1 of them had a major mishap during the move so i dont think that is to bad at all.

nah not bad at all. like i said let em ride, feed them well they are going to be going through thier fattening up stage soon. make sure they have plenty of food, even a minor amount of burn is acceptable right now (nothing major) if your not feeding full str now is the time with some good bloom nutrients. just my 2¢

not sure if this is oirganic but a nice compost tea with a high P guanno would be great for them as well.

Im using Dutch Nutrient Formula 2 part. I have both Gro and Bloom. I started the plants from seed 2 weeks no nutes then 50% feedings every other water. So Feed, water , dry. And then about half way though veg i started 75% feedings same routine. When i started flower i upped to 100% and changed to Feed, Dry, water, dry. should i change to nuts every watering now?

i mean they look nice and healthy and not deficient so i dont want to point you in the worng direction as they seem to be doing great. wasnt sure what you were feeding. maybe increase the feeding a bit or go to every watering for next 2 weeks...really its a judgement call for you to make. i dont want to send you down the wrong road. i just know i had a issue with potash deficiency in flowering. but you dont seem to have any signs of a deficiency.
 
TBH there are a few yellowing / browning leave tips but i thought this was just natural closer to the end of the flowering period. This is the last week of Nuts then i have to flush for the last 2 weeks of flower.

i wouldnt flush it 2 weeks before harvest, if anything maybe flush it on week 8 and let it go an extra week. the last 2 weeks are the final push and when the plant puts on most of its weight, do you really think flushing all the food out of the soil is going ot be benificial?

flushing is a verry controversial subject and theres alot of people who say its a waste of time, i have never fluched and dont notice any chemical taste. flushing all the food out of the soil 2 weeks before harvest is going to keep them from reaching thier maximum potential.

my 2¢

well i spent some time reading on the net and there is no real answer to weather flushing is useful or not :|...But you havent steered me wrong yet so i think ill just feed them right to the end.

well some swear by it some swear that its pointless...personally i do not know but flushing all the nutrients out during the plants final push phase seems almost like working backwards no? just my personal thoughts on the matter.
 
Here are the photos from the Second 2 plants to come down.









Also I decided for my second round of plants im going to SCRoG. So ive started into that and this is what i have so far.

Flower: (About a week and 1/2)

Are you overwatering? They look pretty droopy and yellow
i was actually thinking the same thing...


either way awesome looking buds man.....im sure your pretty satisfied with this first grow's turn around. the box seem to have worked great!!! nice handy work and nice green thumb. now in a few days you can smoke some of that tasty tasty buds.
 
The yellow // droop happened right after the transplant (the night before the picture) im not really sure what caused it..Im just hoping they bounce back

yeah all my clones do the yellowing thing after they root and i put them in soil, im thinking its a stress thing. i heard if you prune any roots sticking out of your rooter/rockwool or just do a little root pruning then they take to the transplant better. i should have used a little superthrive when i transplanted mine but i neglected to. will do it next time.
