New Grower Mr. Clinton & his ladies ;)

Hi there Folks!

This is my first grow here with the AFN.

3 x Great White Shark
3 x HBO Blue Dream

They are in a soil(25%) - Perlite(25%) - CoCo(50%) mix up. The dreams are on roughly day 42 and i say roughly only because of having to switch up their environment a bit . The GW gals are on day 30, there staying low for now but should start stacking up sooooon. I am using GoBox nutes at 1/4 strength for starting off and moved up to 1/2 strength. The biggest BD is getting 3/4 strength and is loving it! No burn baby! Feeding regiment as follows Nutes - Water - Nutes; every two days they are drinking like fish who live in Southern Cali lol The blue dreams are all about 2 1/2 feet - 3 feet now. The Greats are pushing 2 foot. All six are showing their hairs, and each day more colas are poppin up! Mr. Clinton is loaded up to 12 now!

Lighting:

1 x 400 Watt HPS/MH
10 x 100 Watt LEDs

Ventilation:

1 x 440 CFM rated vortex exhaust fan for cooling and exhaust
1 x 6 inch can with Ausie Charc.
2 x 4 inch oscillating fans in opposite corners

you have very pretty plants my friend. but see the twisting of the leaves on the very top? that means shes hungry for food, and im not real sure because of lighting but they might me to lime green. id up feed just a bit and add cal+mag i use botnicare works perfect..

Thanks for the help Elvis

 

[saneiegocali92]

Just gave em all bio bloom and cal mag feed

Was yesterday day 42? If so...it's a little weird that there isn't more pre flower going on
but they look solid and on track...I'd give em a bit and see if the flowering starts in earnest.

 

[saneiegocali92]

Well since they've been planted they are on "day 56" but between a couple stunted transplants/environment changes and as you know from before lol the lack of bytes for a week or two didn't help their actual internal clock I'm sure. They look to show pre-flowers on all but havnt takin off with opening and producing those white tops on the flowers....so I'm wondering what's wrong.... :/ only thing I can think of is the stunted growth early on held them back and they just need that extra month of growth now to finish off...I have more beans incoming from sweet seeds and I believe dim. Trapper, would high humidity(70%) at night with lights off be doing this? I know the high humidity isn't good for the buds. Don't want mold or spore growth. But can't put a finger on why they are taking such a long time...hmmm lol they are even getting fed once a day now. Feed one day water the next then feed again.

As your soil mix has a load of coco in it (which has zero nutrient value) I would up the feeding and cal/mag just as Elvis said.
They seem to be slow in pre flower, but so what. Just means they can bulk up all the more before giving you the flowers. Probably the genetics. I am not familiar with these varieties.

Good luck chum. Looking very good so far.

Hey Elvis and Epen when using a medium that has no nutes, how much calmg per gallon would you use? Also while using 5 gallon pots, how much would you give. If you prefer liters thats fine, I can convert myself. Thanks a bunch in advance
