Indoor Mike20132 grows: Female Seeds - Auto Speed Bud

Day 63

The tent is officially full, and both girls are still in early flower. There are several branches now hitting the top of the tent. About all I could do tonight is do the weekly tank flush. Any more supercropping I do will just crowd other branches/buds. Thankfully, there is good news. More after the few pics.

Nutrients for this week:

Algae Extract: 0.1g/L
PK Boost: 0.2g/L
Sweet Candy: 0.35g/L
Megacrop: 1.25g/L

The budsites are springing up all over the place, but the bigger news is the sheer size of the plants.

As some of you know, I've been looking for a taller tent to fit in the rather limited, and oddly shaped, space that I have. I finally found one, and it arrives tomorrow. Some additional stuff I need to set the whole thing up proper gets here Tuesday.

The plan is to move the plants into the taller tent. There will be two feet more vertical clearance, and that's going to have to be enough. Let's see if the ladies do well there.

This isn't the first time the girls have outgrown the tent, but up until now I was able to counter that with supercropping. These two ladies overwhelmed my efforts to keep them under the lights.

Hoping for a nice yield :)

Peace!

@STILLSMOKIN Funny you mention that...

Day 70:

Moved the girls into the new tent. Things didn't go terribly smoothly. Wound up having to prune quite a few branches, and there is burn damage to a lot of the flowers from kissing up against the lights in the old tent.

Once this grow is finished, I'll be moving the AeroGardens into the old tent, and will use them for growing herbs and veggies. Time to switch to more "proper" containers, like maybe Airpots. Haven't decided yet.

Nutrients for this week:

Algae Extract: 0.1g/L
PK Boost: 0.2g/L
Sweet Candy: 0.35g/L
MegaCrop: 1.25g/L

Couple of full frontals...

May want to look a a more blue lighting, that should stop the stretch a bit better. I start mine with low light until about 12" tall, then switch to 6500k spec for tight nodes to make some proper colas, after stretch I leave 6500k on with 3500k cob. 6500k really frosts them up good also.

I am going to be upgrading the chips in the two COBs I have so far. Might get a third one with the higher color temperature. Thanks!
 
Day 77:

The solution I went with to drain the tanks each week turned out to be a bad idea. The pump worked once. That was last week. Now it just makes this horrible squealing sound while moving no water. Tossing that in the garbage and starting from scratch. So this week no tank flush.

Slight nutrient adjustment, bumping PK to 0.25g/L. Megacrop is at 1.25g/L.

This looks like its going to be a 100+ day grow.
