Lighting Auto Seeds mig-29 X 5

[virginia gent]

It has been about 24hrs since the first full feeding of the four migs and they look good, so far no sign of any burn. They are spreading faster than vertically and thats fine with me. The cheese candy is responding well to the cal/mag grow, but not as fast as the migs did. The stems are starting to get stronger from the circulating fans and the rh is improving, 40-43% rh. Night temps in my unheated room are still around 60f so lights stay at 24/0 for a few more days.

I started reusing my soil after seeing how well it worked for a friend of mine ... after a grow he would poke his finger in the ground next to the stump and put an auto seed in and grow it successfully to maturity ... I've convinced him to pull out the stump and fluff it up a little now ...

The migs are now big enough to be able to take watering twice per week so I can alternate between cal/mag and nutes without mixing them. The bigest girl is looking very good (first pic) and I have given all the migs 2000ml (2qts) of 6ml cal/mag grow and a half cap of superthrive at 6.6ph. The cheese candy (last pic) was not ready for her first feeding of nutes but looks good otherwise.

Day 22 and the girls are growing well, the buds seem to want to be at the same height as the main bud. I gave them 3000ml (3qts) of 5ml grow big, 15ml big bloom and 10ml kangaroots per gal at 6.4ph. The cheese candy (last pic) seems to have liked her first feeding, 2000ml of 5ml grow big, 10ml big bloom and 10ml kangaroots per gal at 6.5ph yesterday at day 15. The weather here has gotten better and tonight I will try a 20/4 light schedule, I think these plants need some rest during what appears to be a growth spurt. I hope to see about one inch growth (vertical) each day for the next 15-20 days, before bloom.

Day 25 and everyone got 2500ml of 6ml/gal of cal/mag grow and a halfcap of superthrive at 6.7ph, cheese candy (last two pics) got 2000ml. Two of the migs want to be tall and a bit thin while the other two are bushy with side branches that are almost as tall as the main cola. The color is good and growth is about one inch per day now, except the cheese candy, and the plants are 13in, 12in and two at about 11in. The bud development is going quickly.

Plants look great ... may I ask when and why you began using Superthrive ? And in such quantities ?

I remembered my father using it for potted plants when I was a teenager and when I saw it online at HGT I got some for my first grows. I have no idea if it really helps the soil microbs or not, just makes me feel good to use it. The amount just seemed about right.

Hey Virgina gent. Those ladies look quite lovely if I might say so. :kusht:


Ooooo you got some cheese candy to boot. Sounds like a damn delicious strain man.

The migs are fast, as fast as anything I have grown to date. They seem to resopnd well to nutes and would make a good strain for DWC, imo. The cheese candy were freebies and I don't know much about them except that they should be good for pain (couch lock). Most of the other grows I have looked at the cc looks tall and a bit thin but mine seem to be very slow to start vertical growth.

Day 27 and three of the migs wanted a drink, each got 3qts of 5ml grow big, 10ml big bloom and 10ml kangaroots at 6.6ph while the runt was still wet. The cheese candy (last two pics) was also too wet for anything. I raised the mig29 runt (pic 5&6) to slow vertical growth a bit and give the buds a chance to catch-up with the others. The migs appear to respond better to nutes than the cheese candy or maybe it is because the migs just grow faster anyway, I'm happy.
