Bad news... was out of town for two days so they didn't get watered and I was so busy I didn't water them for a day before I left so a few of the leaves wilted but they grew ALOT so it doesn't matter to much anyways...
I actually decided instead of doing 12/12 lighting starting now I will do 18/6 to get them used to a dark period for a couple of days and let them grow a bit larger.... I will also top them the day I switch to 12/12 I will also be feeding them about 1/8 strength nutes in the next couple of days...
Plants are still doing great! This is my third grow and I don't think I have ever seen seedlings take off this fast... will switch to 12/12 probably in 5-8 days.
Thanks for the tips man... but all I do is peal back the tape to open it up once every 2 days... it takes me only like 30 seconds to do and I can re use the tape like 30 times... its just tucked away in the corner of my bedroom and no one would ever notice... not that big of a deal to be THAT...
Just so you guys know I am back in business with a WAY better grow this time!! Not sure if any of you remember but I had a northern lights grow awhile back but gave up... well one day I got bored and completely re-made my grow and its pretty fool-proof now!!
Here are some pics of the cab and...
Well its been like 6 or 7 days now of COMPLETE darkness for the plants and they are actually still growing and look 100% healthy... but I really have to decide what to do before these ones are dead as well.
Not sure what I'm gonna do... a friend of mine just takes clones off of a few mothers he has and sells them... he puts out like 50 a month and makes some good coin so I might see if I can swing a deal with him my 3 plans for some bud or something... then he can use them as mothers... other than...
One last update....
Fuck it. Not to sure what Im gunna do now.. one of the plants was a hermie anyways.... but needless to say the stupid light Y splitters pissed me off enough that out they came with the power bar and all the mylar decided to come with it. :cuss:
oh well it was a lost cause...
Finishing the entire grow under only 2 23 watt CFL bulbs because I cant get the rest of them to turn on. here is a pic... the 2 plants that actually get light are looking horrible... while the other 2 that get no light look healthier.. so I don't know how long this will last. I give up.
It was but it is becoming to big of a PITA because the plants are WAY to big for the cab... like I said the colas are constantly getting sucked into the fans because there isn't enough room and every time it happens the whole cola gets torn off.. happened about 3 or 4 times now so that's 4 big...
as you guys can probably tell due to lack of updates I am starting to get quite discouraged from this grow. The cab is just to damn small.. my lights aren't working like I wanted... the Y splitters keep arching out so sometimes Ill open the cab and half the lights will have turned themselves off...
