1000w Soil multistrain
    #542982 - 04/04/11 03:15 AM (12 years, 11 months ago)

Hey I decided to keep better track of my girls and maybe get a little advice along the way.

The stats:

1000w magnetic halide w/Agrosun conversion bulb.  Hydrofarm ballast and reflector
180 CFM inline, passive intake, passes through reflector
4x4 footprint

Nutes:
Fox Farm trio
cha-ching
cal-mag
Some local brand microlife booster
molasses
Snow-storm ultra
Clearex


So, in the room I've got

4 Alaskan ThunderFuck
1 Trainwreck
1 Purple Kush
1 Burmese Kush
1 Skywalker
1 Blue rhino

They were vegged from clone for like 6 weeks and trained somewhere in there just a little bit.  Basically a quick bend that earned me an extra 3-6 tops per plant...

Edit:
Found some pics from their early days.  Note: The time/date stamp is so not correct!
I THINK this is week 3 of veg?  3 weeks before flower or so...
 
This was a few days of recover after what was basically their first and only training session.

Here they are I think day 1 of flower (see why it's time to keep track?)  Also my time/date stamp is wrong so ignore it:

  Day 1

1  2  3
4  5  6
7  8  9

1. ATF  2. Skywalker  3. Purple Kush
4. ATF  5. Trainwreck  6. ATF
7. ATF  8. Burmese Kush  9. Blue Rhino

As I mentioned in another thread, I flushed the girls right before flower so a bit of N def. is starting to show a week later:

  Day 5

1. ATF  2. ATF  3. BR
4. ATF  5. Sky  6. TW
7. ATF  8. BUKU  9. PK

I was starting to stress a bit and decided I wasn't watering or feeding them enough there for a few days so I've been watering every other day, feeding every other watering the past week.  The results make me feel like I missed a week by not pushing them enough.

Here they are today day 14:

  (I fixed my time/date stamp)

1. ATF  2. BR  3. ATF
4. TW  5. SKY  6.ATF
7. BUKU 8. PK  9. ATF


A few notes on the different strains from my experience so far:

One of the ATF: 
ATF:  I think this is my most sativa plant.  She hates the lack of rootspace.  ATF is a nute hog, way outpacing all the other plants on nute consumption.  Also the only really stinky ass vegger...

Purple Kush: 
Purple Kush:  My overall favorite plant so far.. She has awesome structure and has been at least an average vegger with no special requirements.

Skywalker: 
Skywalker:  My second favorite for structure.  She came with some powdery mildew and all the other plants got over it just fine but Skywalker just can't quite kick it.  Overall looking fucking awesome though and would be a top pick for any SCROG based on structure alone so far

Trainwreck: 
Trainwreck:  A very slow veg.  This one didn't get trained and is the same height as the others.  I love this plant still though.  She's super stout and hearty, spikey and spicy.  Has been the least demanding of my nute schedule

Buku: 
BuKu:  Not overall anything exciting here yet.  This was the plant I showed up for when I picked up all the clones except the ATF and while I was there some other guys came in and just got a bunch of BuKu cuts so I'm hopeful with this one.

Blue Rhino: 
Blue Rhino:  Similar story... Nothing special but looks good and heard good things about it.  Oh it was the first to look like it was starting to bud


Anyway guys throw out any questions or advice... I'll try to get some shots with different lighting cause the color on my bulb is pretty nice actually, but they're still not that washed out looking in real life.

Also I'm thinking about giving them a good soak in a regular week 3 nute solution cause I just fed them day before yesterday in a ~850 ppm mix and you can see some of the yellowing still... Ph is good, I'm just thinking maybe they're not actually getting enough from a regular watering and need like a soak?

Wow dude looks great! The conversion bulb seems to give off a very natural color of light. Did you take those pics while the light was on?

Yeah that's lights on. 
I was also impressed.. I got a sweet deal on the setup ($180 for the ballast, reflector and bulb, in box looked brand new [craigslist yo]) and was disappointed when I found out it was a halide, but felt great about it after I saw the color. 
It's like a $130 dollar bulb. It feels very mid-spectrum / balanced.  I'm hoping for ultra dense buds.

Thanks for stoppin by Doc!    :getstoned:

I'm kinda glad I finally wrote it down somewhere so I can take a couple notes...

Like today I was noticing the trainwreck has actually stretched a shit ton relative to the other plants except ATF... Kinda makes up for the slow veg cause now she's a little more opened up and not crazy bushy

Here's a quick update... I started feeding them way more aggressively, full strength FF trio plus snow storm.  Also last feeding I REALLY soaked them... took them to the tub for a mini-flush and really got em good.

   
Quick shot of them hanging out in the garage after a watering: 


The ATF is really starting to impress.  I think these are going to fill out the nicest. A little chlorosis of the Trainwreck's axial tip and the tips of Skywalker.  Skywalker has been directly under the light front and center for a few days now and TW is the tallest.  I was starting to wonder if I finally needed to raise my light so I bumped it up a little which makes me sad...  I'll try to get some pics of the trichs which are definitely forming... nothing too stinky yet though.

Can't believe the growth the past couple days... I'm really pleased with how well this stage has gone.  I'm a chronic underfeeder and I'm glad I've been pushing them so hard this time around, cause this is turning out to be my masterpiece crop to date.

    The beautiful trainwreck
ATF ... I think :bongload:

So in a sad attempt to actually finish a grow log ever,
here's some pics of what happened after I got lazy










  Purple Kush

  Alaskan Thunderfuck

  Trainwreck


Got the PM under control towards the end, and everything seemed pretty smooth in retrospect.
  The big winner was ATF with the fastest maturing, most dense, most resiny nugs by far...

I'm bad at keeping track but it was about an ounce per plant...
More like 8oz total if I remember right..
Nothing stellar for a 1000w or 9 plants, but not bad for a 4x4 I think
