Pineapple Express G13 Lab's Seed to Harvest

here is the first pic of my first gen pineapple express as a clone ... and also the start of a grow room .. it was a hobby just a week ago it seems .. now its a lifestyle !! .. but u can see i was even using a halogen bulb to keep her alive my window didn't bring enough natural sunlight.. .. i wasnt prepared at all for her to come home .and i was a total newbie .. i helped other ppl grow but i never was fully in charge by myself and able to make decisions. .. but i got my pay like 3 days later after getting her home & needless to say shit quickly started improving and still is today 7 months later .. now im at least set up now .. got plenty of bulbs glowing and got a clone box , veg area (24/0),and a bloom area down bottom and its dark with no light and up top the light stays in .. it is rigged and ghetto at parts .. but i use real nutrients .. the right spectrums and a damn good mixture at that to say the least .. and i got it set up .. but the main thing is , still improving today .. its an evolving art .. u can't ever MAX STATS .. or perfect it fully .. we always learn new ish .. read , listen , watch .. grow !! but check out how one little plant can change shit .. the 4 first pictures are of my first gen pa express at like 1 week after i got her as a clone.(and its been sweet love ever since) and the last picture is to show how the room evolved in a matter of a few months..SSPX0764.jpgSSPX0765.jpgSSPX0766.jpgSSPX2089.jpgSSPX1492.jpg
 
yeah i deff am gonna be posting alot of pics from now on .. im gonna make a journal for my current batch .. im really doing decent .. i think so at least .. and u r right super duper forgiving i have two nutrient mixtures a strong one for pa express and a half strength mix for my dna genetic's LA confidential(MY FAV OF THE TWO) the pineapple can take a beating .. have u noticed shes great with pest's also .. like i get these stink bugs everyone say they do so i wasnt too worried . but i also get gnats .. and i didn't notice any probs .. yet .. i do kill em off but the multiply .. very fast

I really wouldn't worry about any fan leaves that are above the screen unless they're blocking other potential sites - just let them be and theoretically they will be beneficial to the plant with constant access to light... unlike the fan leaves below the screen that get less light and are unnecessary. Just my 2c. :)

Ultimate guide to growing in a waterfarm & scrog
Links no longer work. Does anyone have a copy or a good link?

I'm really bummed. I ordered everything needed and then PE from Attitude and the seeds are auto. I just clicked on the first G13 PE. I was about half way through the thread when I ordered. This was my biggest concern, not only the price but the method of obtaining seeds and now I'm reading some say can't be scroged some say it can. I def want to SCROG. Please tell me I can. If so would veg time and any other methods be different.
I wanted to go by this journal step-by-step but it looks like I may have to do things a bit differently... I am so bummed. Any comments would be appreciated and hopefully reassuring.
The UFO was one DNA Genetics LA Woman Feminized, (actually more expensive) photo seed.

Maybe I should just grow an PE auto for sixty days for some med and then LA Woman for Scotty's method. Damn, I haven't even received my seeds yet. I've read a little more and it appears for auto you just keep 'em in 18/6 and switch from MH to HPS when flower starts. And no yield at all compared to what I've been reading in this thread. Damn I didn't mean to hijack this but I just realized this when auto was mentioned.

You think I could grow two or three autos in one WF? What I've seen of autos are much smaller. Can they be scrogged?

or Should I just use Scotty's method on the LA Woman do something else with the autos, maybe outside this summer and meanwhile order some photoperiod PE?
Damn, I'm pissed at myself.

Been thinking, maybe two soil pots and the wf for the autos... what 'da think?

TIA for any help, comments, advice or suggestions.

I think I'm gonna do the three autos in 100% perlite using Flora Nova Bloom. Fast easy, all at the same time and then use the WF on either the LA Woman or have ordered some normal PE.

Hey man - I PM'd you regarding the grow guide PDF - I have a copy of it.

As for the autos, you could probably put 2 in a single waterfarm and just train them to grow into a spread-out bush. You probably won't want to bother scrogging it though since it will flower instantly being an auto. I have an autoflowering Grapefruit going right now, that's about 3 weeks in. Check out my current journal linking below:

Peace. I hope this helps!

Kind of looks like G13 PE is a very robust plant no matter how you grow it. Here what I have in 2gal hempy buckets of mapito...30 day veg, FIM'ed once, now at 45 days flower. Heavinly sweet tangerine smells and sticky, sticky, sticky.

Everything looking good.. crystals and buds comming along nice.. Light is just a plain jain bat wing with a 400w ceramic metal hylide.. may switch to 400w son-t hps this week..

PPM 1500
PH 5.85
I noticed earlier in your post you stated that you don't need to go over 1200 ppm but your at 1500 now. Are you at 1500 because as your water dropped the ppm was lowering? Thanks

What causes the leaf curl on your plants?
I really wished I knew...it happens on almost every strain I grow but its only the fan leaves up top that are affected. I had a fan up high blowing down on the tops to help with the heat of the HPS. Also, with buds so thick I worry about bud rot in the last couple of weeks. No big hit to the yield, just the price I pay for pushing it to the limits.
