New Grower 3rd grow: samsaura thunder bloody mary

View attachment 129969View attachment 129968View attachment 129967The 3 bloddymarys' are about a week and the creamatic is 1 day. I am misting with plain water and the stems are getting stronger, the fan I guess. I have been checking out Milks' grow and man that is an inspiring plant. I need to spend more time looking around, great job milk.

Good news I hope, the other creamatic has popped (still has a hat). I won't touch this one in case my "helping" get off the hat last time screwed the seedling.

So far, everything is looking real good.

View attachment 131287View attachment 131286View attachment 131285I raised the led slightly and placed the new creamatic on a brick in the center, the other creamatic (front right) is only a day or two older and I thought this might help the young one to catch up. As usual I want faster growth, but I have not added nutes and will wait.

It appears the first "true" set of leaves are coming out of the bloody marys'. I believe the bloody marys are claimed to be somewhat branchy and the creamatic should have one central cola. Should I try and maintain the light distance and try for 1in node space on the creamatics? Lights still at about 16in but still no fast vertical growth but it looks like a fair spread.

 

[Muddy]

Yes, try and maintain the 1" node spacing by adjusting your light. You won't see the real explosive vertical growth till after they sex. It's not unusual to have them grow as much as an inch a day between weeks 3-6.

I might have been a little too stoned this morning because only three have come up. Last time it took one almost a week longer to pop. I have a round 135w ufo 7 band led but I would like to hear what others would recomend for my small agromax tent. I only want to grow 5 plants but the round shape seems to leave some with less led light than others. Would I be better off with 2 round 135w or one 240w rectangle? The 4 4ft T5's seem to give enough intencity but I feel I could do better about the other colors of light.

You'd be better off with 4 ufos realistically but 2 would be better than just 1 long one.
I have (4) 5wdiodes 200w Solarflares around my tent and (1) 3wdiodes 135w Blackstar ufo in the middle of my 4x4 ft tent.
Blessings

I like the 4 lights because I never seem to be able to get everything growing at the same rate. Money is always short but getting one at a time is possible, and christmas is just around the corner. Thanks
