I'm about 7 weeks in and have stressed these girls out quite a bit while getting my nutrients right. One of them has really taken off but the other 3 are stout little bushes they have shown pistils but haven't really stretched at all. I'm hoping that changes this week.

I feel like this grow is progressing a bit on the slow side and I feel like I'm a bit behind. I'm attributing that to the stress I've caused. I had fungus gnats on one and I've burned them a few times by mixing up too strong of nutes. I think I finally have that under control.

I did a bunch of defoliating on them, the tall one is really opened up and getting a lot of light. The short ones just continue to throw more leaves and bush up.

Setup:

Light: HLG 550v2

Nutes: Mega Crop V2 and Sweet Candy

Tent: 4x4x7

Climate Control: Raspberry Pi with custom python script that controls fan/heater/humidifier

The last shot is a picture of my grow dashboard, where I can monitor my tent right from my PC. If anyone has any interest in setting up something like this let me know.

The big one looks Great, the others Great. But with issues can slow them.

Welcome to AFN and is a Awesome place. If have a question, just hit some one up like this, @Wawashell , tag me if need be :pass:
And Welcome Again.
 
The big one should be a rockin' harvest. Hopefully the smaller ones come along in due time. Good luck.
 
Not a lot of action on the small ones this week. I have done a bunch of defoliating on them, the small ones are just so bushy. Without it, I'm not sure you would even see bud sites.

The tall plant keeps rockin and is really getting tall. The leaves are starting to get a nice layer of frost and it's starting to have a nice smell in the tent. It's been 61 days since I put the seeds in their plugs and it seems like we're going to be at this for quite a while longer. Again I attribute that to me stressing them out. I guess that's better than having them flower too early. Even if the small ones don't yield a lot I'm sure the buds will be good. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the tall one bulks up. I'm planning on adding some bud explosion next rez change now that they are really starting to flower.

It's all forum stomper.

o-o-o-kay, my bad & apologiez...me got to lookin at all the purty porn & completely spaced out the title of the thread, lol :doh: ppp
 
Looking good across the board! Just curious because I'm running an HLG 600 on my first grow, how close have you been keeping your lights through the whole process? Dimming them at all?
 
I haven't dimmed them at all, started almost all the way up when they were seedlings and it was plenty of light. After they got good and established I put them at probably 30 some inches away. It's tough now though lol. I've got the one tall one so I have had to keep moving the lights up further away from the little ones.
