Hi to all the AFN family.

My beans finally arrived :clap:


Going for think different in 2 18 litre oxy pots
3 airstones in each from 3 pumps.
Prakasa 120 watt led.
4 " extractor with carbon filter.
Advanced Nutrients sensi bloom.
Doing the grow in a closet as the tent was too big for the bedroom
and the wife was not too happy so i got a closet and used the carcus.



Soaked the beans for 24 hours in distilled water.
They have now sprouted.:dance:



Popped them into small rockwool cubes today then into propagator.

Few shots of a quick check that all is working ok.



Just got to wait for the beans to show there heads/roots then into the pebbles.:

Looks like you have a nice little grow room.Good choice on the TD,they are a fast grower and should give you a pretty good yield.Good luck on your grow and feel free to ask any questions you may have along the way.:karma Cloud:

Hi to all at afn.

Been a while since last post due to work commitments and i do apologise to all following this post.
Sadly i lost the 2 seedlings that sprouted in above pic.
So a few weeks later i soaked 2 more td and placed in rockwool cubes.
Only one sprouted.
The other one failed to take i did leave it just incase it was a late riser but a no go.
So i only had 1 seedling to work with.
Here are some pics of my grow so far.

:

Last 6 pics are where i am at now.( week 3 of flowering )
As you can see in the last pic it is getting very tight inside the closet.
Can i trim some of the bigger leaves off to let more light through?
Or try and tie the branches down?
I added a 200 watt red cfl just to try and help with light penetration.
It is getting at the stage where it will not come out of the closet doors as they are the sliding type and the gap is gradually decreasing.
I am feeding it advanced nutrients sensi bloom a - b at 600ppm and 200 ppm of calmag in 10 litres of ro water and 2 litres of tap water as a buffer.
So a total of 800-850ppm on the truncheon.( flashing between 800-900 ) due to tap water ppm has risen slightly.
ph of 5.6
A N recommend 4ml per litre i am using 2ml per litre @ 12 litres =24ml
Cal mag recommend 1-2ml per litre i am using 1ml per litre @ 12 litres =12ml
My question is should i up the dosage at this stage or stay as i am for now.
Any input on either subject ie trimming/tie down or nutes would be greatfully accepted.

Anyone?

Great grow man, you could try gently tucking the leaves out of the way to get more light in.

 

[shadsville]

Thanks TaNg.
I decided to cut a few of the bottom nodes off that was just harbouring scrag.
Tucked a few fan leaves away.
She is looking a lot better now.."pher Wiggle"
