virgin grower. come check it out (SKUNK #1)

Well this is my first grow to make it to flowering (third attempt from seed) i started with 7 plants and out of all that only one girl. im using using tiger bloom and blackstrap molasses now in flowering and i used fish emulsion during veg. vegged for 5 weeks and now 6.5 weeks into flowering. oh and ive read my grow bible cover to cover a couple of time!

please post and let me know how im doing so far.

here are some current pictures
the last picture is at the end of veg stage.

here are the lower buds

oh almost forgot im using an organic soiless mix that has rabbit and sheep manure as well and wormcasting, bat guano, perilite, etc. really great stuff

Hey man, your plant is looking nice but I have one suggestion. I would try replacing those 6500K bulbs with warmer bulbs like 2700K for flowering. During flowering plants love red light. It isn't bad to have higher kelvin lights during flowering but I would def add some 2700K bulbs. I hope that helps

temps got way too hot when i put in all warm bulbs (over 110) so i put three daylights back in and temps are alot better now. most of the bulbs are 25w and the one big one is a 50 watter.

If temps get too high try adding a couple fans with frozen water bottles behind them to move cold air around. Just a thought

Tom

cool idea. i might just have to try it

Yeah I have used it in the past and it worked pretty well

Tom

nice way to go, here are some shots of my 12-12 from bagseed

ok i have a question. what should i do about the new growth shoots that are poping up right at the soil level. should i cut them off and trying cloning them or just leave them be?
ill try and get pics of them later

tried the frozen bottle trick and it sure melted fast!

sorry to hear about the bottle trick man, maybe you could try a few more bottles in there...

Tom

well i tried a half gallon milk jug. its lasting longer.

here are some pic from today
(day 42 of flowering)

any ideas why my upper leaves are curling under?

day 45 of flowering... seems that my leaf curling problem was due to a slight nute burn. oops. here are some pics from today.

should i cut off the leaves that are yellowing (some look like rust)?

DAY 50 of flowering

any guesses on how many more weeks she will take to finish

anybody have any input at all?

mabe another week, if the yellow leaves are crispy it shouldnt hurt to remove them

yellow leaves are now gone. really starting to smell skunky
