big guy

Had to do a little prepping of course, now on pulleys, though!


Finally these plants get to do their thang:Cool:
and a little closer

The girls are starting day 5 today after official pop and sprout above soil! Put a fan in as well for circulation. Man does the SolarStorm run cool and quiet, though. It is ~20-22in. above the top of the plants at the moment too :smoke:

Looks good Redd...:.

Good on you redd!:Coolio: I was so excited when I got my first light! Ah, I remember it so well....it was only three weeks ago!

Day 6 total, day 2 under light!

Got the babes goin on day two today under the light, they look real happy :

Watered too, and transplanted the temporary cheese into a temp 1/4 gallon size. The wind gusted and knocked it down for its height, but it's still loving life too :]

Daytime temps are around 72-78 with humidity 55%-68%ish. Would you say that these are fine at this time? lots of circulation with two fans, different parts of the space.

I have been having humidity spikes up to 90% at night, no higher, and then back to normal during the day. I can't figure out why this is
All in all, things are going happily for me with this so far:Cool:

it has been a while and i wanted to apologize for lack of posts, but I had some issues I had to work out that came up during the grow not growing related, but i should be back on track with hopefully weekly updates. here are the girls at day 18, who will be starting day 20 tomorrow:booya:

Outside getting some water and posing


The fam



the biggest right now it about 10" accross and 7" tall, the others the same height, but maybe an inch less accross

just wanted to mention that they get nutes every other day, and i plan on doing a flush when i see some pistils shooting out and preflowers begin. just thought i'd mention that sex hasn't shown :smoke:

wanted to show some tucking on the biggest of the white widows i did earlier today, last day of week 3, starting week 4 tomorrow, wish me luck on some pistils! she has 4 uncovered tops from under showing, and what looks like more from the higher branches that will grow into the canopy. she's the prettiest so far!

You still gettin 90% humidity at night?. lights out? Apparantly, leds don't like high humidity, i read on here that it screws your leds over time.

 

[TaNg]

Looking good bro but Randy is right you need to get the RH down not only for the sake of the light but your plants will grow a lot better if you can keep it a constant 40-50%.

hey guys, just wanted to clear up that I hadn't had the nighttime RH issue since a few days after i noticed it, been going strong since! until this morning... while watering i noticed discoloring. in LED grows, cal-mg tends t be a recurring issue i've read.. look like the sort of spots? it would be my best/only guess at the moment. temps low-mid 60's at night and mid 70's daytime, humidity 40-60% max. pH still needs to be checked as i'm out of a testing method at the moment to test for lockout. i know i know it's one of the first things that should ever be checked, but whenever i'll be able to go out, hopefully i might see results in the meantime

They all got a little over a gallon of water this morning in them, today was their nute day (every other day, didn't want to overlap feedings?) Added some General Organics' Cal-Mg with it, 1/2 teas to see a reaction at first. Thoughts appreciated always! :smoke:
