Indoor First Grow 2x4 Tent 600 W HPS

Hey!!! I was looking at your pics and I wanted to tell you why your bagseed plants lookd like they were gonna fall over, I don't think anyone else comented on them.. When u were running your t12s they had to have been set to high so the plants were stretching for the light.. you can have your t12 3-4in away from the tops of your plants!!! also I see you got the MH up at 3feet??? that is fine from the beginning but you can slowly lower it like an inch every 2days or something like that... the closer the light to the plants(more Lumens) the closer the nodes will be (bud sites) also you will have more bud sites, if not the plant will keep stretching for the light and u will end up with tall lanky plants without many budsites.... also some of your plants in the recent pics look overwatered... remember u can overwaterthem by spraying/misting them also... I made that mistake once with clones and the ended up dieing or stunting the shitout them... I actually never really mist my plants, I just wait for the soil to dry up then I kno its time to water them... hopethis helps

Hey thanks for stopping by. The bagseed plants did get stretched a bit at first due to being under a tall humidty dome. They are starting to fatten up pretty nicely under the MH now. Still really not sure what I'm going to do with them just love growing as many as I can lol. I know what you mean about over watering. It is something I constantly struggle with, I'm not very patient lol. I have been watering 2 cups every 3 days approximately. The temps have been slightly high at 83 so the top soil has been drying pretty fast. I am using 3 gallon pots and the plants are actually at 13 days from the day they broke ground.

THAT BERRY RYDER 2 could be that small due to over watering overwatering is the worst it will stunt the shit out ur plants.. worse than anything else!!! ive seen over watered autos grow only5-6in tall before!!! they did look cute though!!! they were lke 5in 1gram bud!!!! could be also a shitty phenol ive also seen that where they stay a few inches tall due to a (dud seed) cant stress enough bout the over watering.. u said 3days before u watering? those 1gal pots?? those plants are still to small to e sucking up water that fast.. are u waiting for the soil to dry up??? reason y im tellin u this is cuz overwatering is the #1 mistake for newbe growers..

The Berry Ryder 2 wasnt actually stunted. It sprouted several days after the rest. I did make a newbie mistake of peaking at the seed under the soil to see if it was sprouting. In the process I'm sure I stressed it which has it behind the rest. Oh well just means my harvest will be more staggered. Not exactly a bad thing.

jus tryin to help out fellow grower!!

I appreciate the help. I've grown a little bit in the past and I do a bit of gardening but I'm a little rusty. Thats what I love about this site theres so many different people willing to give advice. Thanks!

Update Day 21:

The plants are all doing great. I still haven't watered/fed since my last update. Ill be doing that tomorrow night probably. Not sure when they're supposed to show sex though. They're all supposed to be feminized.

Those damn flies are getting worse! I was going to get neem oil but I recently won a small bonus at work so I placed an order for a new 6in inline exhaust fan ( Dirt Genius DGILF6 6" Hydroponics Inline Active Exhaust Duct Fan Blower 400 CFM
http://amzn.com/B00CWMCHE6 - price was reasonable, reviews looked great, and I like the lip design. Just hoping its not too loud) and a 16oz bottle of sns 203. I still need to get insulated ducting, a speed controller, and a carbon filter. I should be able to get everything by 8/15. Just hoping they don't stink too much before then.

Here's the pics...

Bagseeds - They need to be transplanted badly. Still waiting for my buddy to get his room setup first.

Thank Brian I appreciate it! I just love sitting in front of the tent smoking. Could watch them for days lol. Some of the leaves are starting to smell pretty good. Not sure if I was imagining things but the berry Ryder leaves seemed to smell slightly fruity.

They should have a nice aroma to them by this stage, your not imagining it anyway man.

Maybe I will need a carbon filter before 8/15 lol

2 weeks in I came home and smelled a slight skunky odor. After falsely accusing the person I live with of smoking my weed, i realized one of my critical jacks was already throwing off odor.

I would get that filter asap

1 sale away from getting a bonus! Then ill be able to get it sooner lol. Otherwise might have to get some ONA gel until I can afford the filter.

I also came across these. Heard great reviews on the fence about it vs a filter though.

Best off having a filter first man, ona gel wont do much. Best thing to do is set up your Cf and stick a small block of ona in with your extraction fan. Then your grow room will always smell so nice.

That's what I'm leaning towards. Found some pretty good cf for around $50. Plus I can run the filter on 2 tents eventually. That's why I went with a 6in vs 4in fan. One downside is my holes on my tent are only big enough for 4in duct so I have to use a downsizer which I've heard can make it louder and less efficient.
