What up boss they're looking right!! Bout to start a Skywalker Kush next week bro so im subbed up or the rest of this. Any idea why the skywalker was growing slower than the rest??

Not 100 percent sure, even on the first week she was a bit odd, then progressing into week 2 it seems like it was to strong of a nute strength, was up around 250ppm. Which was a bit confusing cause that's not really strong... then it seems like it wanted alot of nutes fast. so then it go a bit worse. It straighten its shit out around week 4. To me it seems like a picky plant, It got the same treatment as the vanilla kush and the blue dream.... my technique was the same for all three. The skywalker just wanted to be temperamental. But its entirely possible i miss read the symptoms and was under feeding the skywalker the entire time. On week 4 i could clearly see a micro-deficiency issue and Mag issue. Right now she is up around that 650ppm range, and is doing fine.

I would like to give it another round... but my style of growing i have limited space, and since it was a problem child, i will skip it next round and just run with 2 blue dreams and 1 vanilla kush. I have more seeds of the skywalker if i want to pop one in the future but she will be replaced with Humboldt Seed Organgizations Green Crack.

Good to know man ill keep her nutes low at first and see how she goes from there. Have u ever grown C99 from Female Seeds?? Just got some of those too for my first photo attempt in a while.

naw i haven't grown the c99 strain, i know exactly what strain you are talking about to, cause i was looking at that when i was deciding what to run in dwc. It looks like a good strain to be honest. But i got my mind set on that Green Crack, i hear she is a huge yeilder.

Great looking beasts up in here lol. Your set up is so baller. Did you go from led to hps?

Yea i started growing with LEDS when i was a noob, (also still learning) but i soon realized i was not satisfied with the overall yield i was getting from LEDS, once i switched to HPS my yield shot up

LEDS have advanced since my last set i had. The most LEDS i ran was Six 240 watt BlackStar LED panels in a 4 x 8 tent. I Switched them out for two air cooled 600 watt hps, and i ended up pulling over 2lbs from my 4 x 8 tent. Shortly after that, i did this upgrade that you see in this thread.

I think im gonna switch from LED to HPS too. I have an old 600w dimmable and i was thinking since the summer is over i can manage the temps... What kind of distances do you keep the light at??

 

[lykaboss]

about 2 to 2 and half foot from canopy normally, you want to be at least 18 inches above.
