trueloveforever164's 2nd Grow of Snow White and Supergirl

Day 19, but only 5 days into the Vegetative Stage. The PPM is at 153 so I will be raising the nutes back up to the 200-220ppm range today, and tomorrow I will raise the nutes to the 275-285. I will get some pics up shortly. Thanks for following along.

Here are the pics I promised. This is Day 19!!

Alright so I raised the PPM to 209. The pH is 5.6-5.8 and the inside temp is 82.9 and RH is 37%.

damn man they are blowing up!!!! glad they recovered with no prob from the burn

Very cool. I'm growing Snow White too... Those suckers will blow up. Looks a lot like mine did at that stage... I'm running out of room, literally!

Good Luck.

Thanks! I hope I don't run out of room. I'm not going to use Bushmaster this time. I did a lot of thing in the last grow that I'm not going to repeat this grow.

Thanks Mr. Bitti

10 hours later the PPM was back down to 199 LOL! So they appear to be very hungry!

I'm so amazed at the rapid growth! These 4 ladies are loving the nutes and they are pretty thirsty too.

PPM 200
pH 6.0
Temp 78.6 F
RH 38%

I hope you all enjoy the pics

So I was lying in bed and the power went out for a few minutes so I thought I'd take a pic of the plants with the MH light off. I filled the back up reservoir yesterday evening with a gallon of water, then I had to add another gallon a few hours later. So these things are eating and drinking.

damn good growth my meng

So I took these pics in the evening time on 3/31/09.

I took these pics on 4/1/09 after I changed the reservoir. I normally change the reservoir on Tuesday but I skipped a day and changed it on Wednesday.

I just took these pics and I cannot believe the growth of these plants. These are only 24 days old from germination. I'm trying my best to keep the nutes up and the reservoir filled accordingly but these ladies are hungry and thirsty. Last night the ppm was 344 and now it's 305.

I'm actually concerned about the height because the tallest plant is near 12 in. and all the plants are building the 6th node. I'm just really blown away compared to my last grow. And I truly believe the nutes are playing a part.

flip to 12/12 right now if your worried about height. i took the 12/12 stretch for granted and had to ditch my cab mid grow lol

hey its me again - I'd been away for a few days and just caught up on your grow.

this happens often with healthy plants, its glad we caught them and did recourse exactly when we did.

anyway, when the plants in a whole get right at 12" ~ flip that cycle and bulb - they have grown the limit of our space.

remember to adjust the nutes as mentioned before. it's about time!

Are you using the SLS ozone/carbon now? Do you get raised temps because of the slow exhaust output?

Well I definitely don't want to outgrow this cab so I just switched to the HPS bulb.

As mentioned above I switched bulbs. Now since the re-course of action has been switched to flowering and my ppm 275 to 285 range for days 21-24 how should I go about getting the nutes up without burning them? And I'm using the SLS carbon now but I don't have the ozone plugged in.

you might want to go the first few weeks of flower with the blue spectrum. it will help control the stretch and keep it to a minimum. they should be fine in the 300-500 ppm range w/o getting burnt so maybe bring it back up to 350+ and watch and see how much it goes down the next few days. the trick is just bring it up slowly

Okay, so do 12/12 with the MH bulb for a couple of weeks instead of the HPS Bulb?

12/12 hps, nutes still as mentioned earlier based on height/days in grow.

Youll get more isolated clusters because of how this grow has gone for you so far if you stay on this path and with our specific cab setup. You can always stick with the MH for the next week; however the stress factor versus you got a grow that wants to "grow", I say slower down now - you know it will continue to grow another 10-15" anyway so just figure it in - a few less inches in height vs. risking a more tight cluster of budding. Please note that these comments do not pretain to a "regular" grow; only to TrueLove's strains, past, recourse, high return results in short period, continued nute therapy and cab.
