Lighting 1 x MS0006 / 4 x 15L AirPots / BioBizz Soil & Nutes / Multi Strain

[monkeyplant]

This is my first grow ever, I have actually not smoked in many years and plan to give this crop away as well. I am growing out of nostalgic interest I would say. I did a some research before getting going on this and went a bit overboard getting 15L AirPots (the bigger the better seemed to be the mantra) without realizing I needed more light to max those out. So I had some worries at the start but it all seems to have come together in the end. I began growing in an open room and picked up a tent when the smell got too strong around week 6, I also added a few CFLs then(1 x 75W, 2 x 40W) as the light couldn't go as high and therefore I was not getting full coverage any longer.

Soil:
I filled the AirPots 2/3 with All Mix and the top 1/3 with light mix (BioBizz) and placed the germinated seeds straight into their final 15L AirPots. I used the paper towel method to germinate and had one seed never pop, I tried a second of that strain (Royal Haze Auto) and it pop'd.

Strains:

• White Label - White Haze Auto
• Royal Queen - Royal Haze Auto
• Paradise - Pandora
• Dutch Passion - PolarLight #3

Water + Nutes:
I started grow nutes after a little more than 2 weeks and switched to bloom after about 6 building up the quantity of nutes and water over time (started 1/4 strength 1/4L per plant every 2-3 days and built to full strength 1L per plant every 1-2 days based on moisture meter)

Light:
1 x MS0006, 1 x 75W CFL, 2 x 40W CFL (CFL's added at week 6 when tent was set up). 20/4 light cycle.

Tent:
Secret Jardin DS90 (90x90x170cm) added week 6

Current Results:

PolarLight #3 - Front Right (8 weeks)

Pandora - Front Left (8 weeks)

Royal Haze - Back Left (7 weeks)

White Haze - Back Right (8 weeks)

Hey buddy, for your first grow you've done an awesome job here. Are you really not going to even sample any of this crop? For somebody like me it would be damn near impossible not to give them a taste after growing/caring for them, treat yourself

We'll see what comes of it . I do have a general question on flushing though, seeing the plants and knowing the current week count what would you suggest? The White Haze is just starting to get cloudy, the PolarLights #3 is all clear and the other two aren't too frosty yet so I haven't checked out the triches.

I figured I'd at least cut the nutes from the White Haze as it's under 2 weeks from done(and smaller than the others), but what about the PolarLights, should I do the same as it's 1.5-3 weeks out? There are a ton of popcorn buds on both and I wan't to let those get as big a possible without losing the sativa qualities so I am a bit unsure right now on how to time it out for max output.

What do your leaves look like. When they start to turn Autumnal is a good time to flush. And the plant will use the last of its resources over the course of the flush .You should check the trichomes aswell and harvest depending on how mature you like your flowers? Clear/cloudy for uplift and cloudy/Amber for a stoney buzz. Your plants look super and I love the additional lighting! Great growing.

For max output leave a little longer to fatten but you will get a stoney buzz. Not always a bad thing

A tent that size is crying out for one of the new GN lights when they come out. And you could cater for different height plants growing multi strains .
