New Grower Budsons First Dank Den - Pineapple Express & White Widow!

[Budson420]

Hey everyone! welcome to my first auto grow!

So the time has finally arrived i can post a auto grow!
I ordered 2 pineapple express from barneys and a sweet skunk from sweet seeds, also given a white widow from Pyramid seeds off a buddy.. cheers man!!

Just give you guys a quick run through of the gear:
Lighting: one 130w 6500k for vegging, one 130w 2700k and 14w LED panel (mostly Flowering spectrum) for flowering.
Temps run from 20-23*c lights off, 26-28*c lights on, humidity is usually 20-45%
The dank den is in my bedroom cupboard roughly 70x50x150cm
Soil: Osmocote seed raising, added water crystals, gypsum and phosphorus!
Fertiliser: Seasol seaweed solution for vegging (will be replacing this next week)
And Seasol power feed for flowering - N:10.0, P:1.6, K:9.0
planing on going into 10lt pots!


So dropped my two beans in the wet paper towel method, 24 hours P.E cracked 24 hours after that the W.W came through, straight into the soda bottles for the seedling stage.


In the next 42-72 hours i seen there pretty little heads.


Today 12/2/2014 the PE is three days old and the WW is one day behind at 2 Days old, giving me a harvest around Easter give or take a few days :thumbs:

Here are my two girls this morning.




My goal is to yield an Oz each plant, as long as i pull at least 20grams per plant i'll be happy aiming high but not to high, that will give me enough product till the next harvest is due.
Please do not be shy to ask any questions im no guru but ive spent the last year and a half researching getting myself ready for this day, creative criticism is more then welcome give me a laugh, i'd be more than to happy to take advise, tips and hints from any seasoned pro's that may venture my way
Wish me luck and happy 420 guys stay medicated!! :Sharing One:

Cheers boys Willie and Jack "Bailers Booya" hope all this reading pays off haha!
Knowing those factors Spliffer i kinda have hope i will manage my goal with ease, So you may remember me and elemental planning a NL grow off? since i never got that order we are having a friendly grow off with the white widows we have, his got about two weeks on me.. both soil grows, same lights (till flower) different nutes, roughly the same kind of grow environment should be some interesting data gathered, biggest and best looking yield wins.. wish me luck during my quest my friends, for the night is dark and full of terrors :twist:

Hey Budson, I'm far from a pro as I just started my first grow, one thing I have read over and over it seems is that autos like starting in their final home. Just my 2 cents, best of luck and I'll be along for the ride!

 

[Jack The Spliffer]

good luck to you bro :karma Cloud:

Thanks for the warm support fellas :hug:
Hey Gilly ive read that also but i currently have a bag seed in with them and going straight to final pots, i dont think would all fit haha, i've pre cut small holes in the bottles so once time for transplant i can just cut the bottom away and sit them in the final pots thanks for sticking around, i wont disappoint

Thanks for dropping by Smoker :tiphat: i'm mainly only growing it because i love the movie and who doesn't wanna be able to say i've smoked pineapple express right? hahaha
tell me more about the strain? hows the smell? any hints of pineapple in there? and was it a very smelly plant during flowering? deciding whether to buy a filter or not next week, some info from someone who has grow this baddie would be a great "AFN smoke out"
