Indoor Four Plants, Two Strains, and 1,000 Watt MH/HPS

[Troon]

How far away is the light? Sounds good to me bud.

Depends. All of the tops are 12 inches from the glass on my light, the lower buds are farther away. I'm probably off on that 12 inch estimate by the way. I'll measure some stuff and include it in my journal entry in about 12 hours or so. Since I pulled the branches away from the center on most of the plants the buds are lower. One of them is short (fast & vast A I believe) and it seems to be doing well, it's actually the one that started budding first m. I would assume that one got the white dwarf in it more than the other one. Anyways my point is that I have one plant that is half the size of the others, and the buds seem to be filling in at a steady pace, so the other ones where the buds are lower than the tops should do fine as far as light goes. I would like to start more soon but I'm gonna have to look back to see their size. I would like to start them 20 days before harvest on my current plants and I may try some VIVOSUN 3 gallon fabric pots, gonna do some research about pot/plant size first though.

When I update later today I'll measure the plants and shit. Partially for the hell of it, partially to record data! Information is always useful!

Day 36

Water:
[Fast & Vast - Plant A]
2 Gallons Filtered Tap Water
Nutrients Added:
*5ml Bio Thrive Bloom
*2.5 CaMg
*5ml Bio Marine
*2.5 Bio Bud


[Fast & Vast - Plant B]
2 Gallons Filtered Tap Water
Nutrients Added:
*5ml Bio Thrive Bloom
*2.5 CaMg
*5ml Bio Marine
*2.5 Bio Bud


[Wipeout Express - Plant A]
2 Gallons Plain Filtered Tap Water

[Wipeout Express - Plant B]
2 Gallons Filtered Tap Water
Nutrients Added:
*5ml Bio Thrive Bloom
*2.5 CaMg
*5ml Bio Marine
*2.5 Bio Bud


Temperatures | Humidity:
My gauge fell today, the floor right by a vent was 68F

If I had to guess the temperature 72-75 is the normal range.

Plant Height:
Fast & Vast - Plant A - 24.5 inches
Fast & Vast - Plant B - 32 inches
Wipeout Express - Plant A - 32.5 inches
Wipeout Express - Plant B - 35 inches

Notes:
The plant closest to the glass is 14 inches away. The bud that was the furtherest away from the light was 34 inches. It is likely this will change because I am moving the plants like I had them. My light is the shape of a rectangle so I assume it would be best to have my plants in a similar shape. While I was watering today this thought crossed my mind and made perfect sense. I took pictures before I rearranged them though. I just feel as if it creates better coverage, and it's also 100% logical assumption.

I'm almost out of CaMg+ so I ordered another bottle. I bought the GO box the first time which includes small bottle(8oz) of 6 of the nutrient bottles when they get low I will order one quart bottles as needed. I bought the GO Box to try it out and I love it.

I also purchased the VIVOSUN 5 gallon fabric pots w/ handles. Did some research today and 3 gallon pots would cause a lower yield than a five gallon. I read some reviews today and others have said they are much more durable than the smart pots. They also said they liked the stitched on handle more than the smart pot handle which is basically an extension of the pot itself. I did read one complaint that said one of the handles wasn't stitched properly, but shit happens. They had about 160 reviews and a average rating of 4.8 out of 5 and you really can't beat that.

Well I got some water trays to go empty! If you have any questions feel free to ask, comments, and suggestions are also welcome! Thanks to those of you who are following! Knowing someone is watching motivates me to update the journal.

Day 38

Water:
[Fast & Vast - Plant A]
None.

[Fast & Vast - Plant B]
None.

[Wipeout Express - Plant A]
None.

[Wipeout Express - Plant B]
None.


Temperatures | Humidity:

Notes:
I could water the Wipeout Express - Plant A today. I'll wait until tomorrow in hopes that the others will need to be watered. I for sure noticed some bud growth on the plants today! They are getting slightly bigger, or the hairs are getting longer lol.

I got my VIVOSUN 5 Gallon Fabric Pots today, I'm sad to report they are actually only three gallon pots though. Perhaps this is normal for fabric pots? I emailed the company about 30 minutes ago, we will see what they have to say about it. I know they are three Gallon because I have a three gallon pot from some roses I planted a while back and it fits inside perfectly. I would like to try it out and see if my plants get the same size as they do in the five gallon buckets though. I will use them in my next grow. I know what size they are thanks to recording the height of the plants, and I will be growing the same strains next grow, perhaps only one of each, and two from fast buds. Awaiting a reply from VIVOSUN then I'll do a review of them, then review them further by actually growing with them.

Day 39

Water:
[Fast & Vast - Plant A]
None.

[Fast & Vast - Plant B]
None.

[Wipeout Express - Plant A]
Two gallons plain filtered tap water. No nutrients.

[Wipeout Express - Plant B]
None.

Temperatures | Humidity:
72-75F | Not sure about humidity, don't feel like looking, sure it's close to the reading yesterday.


Notes:
I did two waterings in a row without nutrients on Wipeout Express Plant - A intentionally. I think I'm using too many nutrients. I have decent soil so next time I won't feed until they need it. I read that nutrients make your buds taste funky, although it may be different with organics. I would have done it regardless though, I think the nutrients are effecting my plants in a bad way because I am using too much in my opinion.

Noticed that both the Fast & Vast have some sugar on the leaves! That's pretty damn awesome. This is my first grow in a few months so I'm excited! Sadly I will not be able to smoke the herb I'm growing due to current circumstances so when it's finished I won't be able to smoke it. I thought about synthetic urine, but fuck that because it's too risky!

I may order some different seeds soon. I have four different strains of seeds but two are the same as I'm growing now, the other two are Fruit Punch by heavyweight and Dark Purple by delicious.

That being said what would you like to see me grow? Doesn't have to be any of the seeds I currently have. I want to buy some more anyways. If you have grown a strain and you really liked it let me know! Must be a good yielder, and only autoflowers please!

I'll think you would like the Fruit Punch

 

[Troon]

I'll think you would like the Fruit Punch

I actually had one at the start of this grow but it was messed up for some reason it's growth was stunted

Did u see mine ?
