here are the little girls starting to take off good now. There loving the co2 and giving them a very light feeding of advanced grow bloom and cal-mag because of r/o water...I am new to indoors and new to auto's but have 3 seasons of outdoor grows under my belt....Trying to learn and take in as much good info as i can. i here alot of good about TD so hopefully it turns out good. In my journal there is a couple photoperiod plants super skunk and MOB they were the very first plants i grew indoors in my closet as mothers for clones im now vegging with the auto's. they will be going outside once it warms up so they will have lots of veg time

looking good, nice and green:booya:
looks like a nice setup.
whats the problem with the larger plant though or is it just splash on the lower leaves?

they were cut from a mother that had gotten a spidermite infestation both mothers came from two different CG's and one the super skunk was infested with spider mites but only a few that's why I didn't catch it right off. I tried to treat it with sns-17 with no luck so I bought NPK's mighty wash and took care of them a few days before I switched to 12/12 that's why there is speckles all over it but weirdly enough they would not get on the MOB I guess its more resistant or something.. Been a couple weeks and still no sign's of those little bastards. The plant you are talking about is a 3 week clone from the plants in the pictures below. I dipped the clones in mighty wash just to be safe because there all growing with my new auto's

Here is a couple shots of the mothers I just bloomed I will update on these too but even though I have an extra 1000 watt raptor hood I did not want to run it right now so these are flowering under a 8 tube T-5 VHO Fluorescent lamps....The picture 2nd from the left is the one that was infested in mites. But like I said I have not seen a single one for almost 3 weeks but i'm watching closely. the one in the front is the mob I just pulled these out under the 1000 watt so do a picture then back into the closet they go...It sucks they wont be as tight or big but its all for me not my patience anyways these were just an experiment to see what a t-5 bad boy light fixture could grow

ah luckily never had to deal with spider mites, they sound like a pain in the arse.
they look great anyway

thanks bgrt if you do ever have a issue I would highly recommend NPK mighty wash you get a quart for about 15 bucks and use a sprayer I only applied 1 application and gone. asamax works too but burnt my plants and same thing with the sns-17 they both gave me leaf burn and more then one application...

Love the grow room,people dream of fast cars & sunny holidays but me i dream of a grow room like ur's m8 lol Nice,,:smokebuds:

Thanks bud good to here someone else appreciate's it as much as I do... I have saved money for over 2 years for this putting a little bit away each week. My total spending on this set up not including seeds or nute's was about 6200.00 but I think it's worth every penny spent

this is where a lot of it went I now have 4 ballast on this board and a co2 monitor. On the other wall I have a r/o system but the water line from it to fill the reservoir that's now under the board runs up over the ceiling and down between the 1st ballast and the master controller but it is hard to see its a clear line and there is now a 50 gallon res. that it will soon keep full. once all these are bigger its going to take a lot of water to feed them so I will have a submersible pump in the res. with a hose and water wand...I was going to hand water them but I would be in there for hours doing it. I just put a 75 pint dehumidifier in but its creating a lot of unwanted heat pushing me past 90 I was about 85 with out the a/c before the dehumidifier which is perfect with co2.Now I have both running but the dehum. cycles a lot on and off... I think I might grab another a/c maybe a 12,000 btu instead of a 8000 btu and it will keep cool and dehumidify.... I am new at this and its taking a lot of time to dial this stuff in lol

here they are at day 12 from seed going strong I think but then again this is my first auto grow. The 2 on the far left in the 1st picture are the 2 I took out of the DWC buckets they had good roots but im sure they got shocked a little, but better then dieing.....what's your opinion?
