Indoor First Grow - Easy Ryder Autos

I think I will switch my MH bulb to HPS tomorrow since ER #1 is showing pistils. I've read a few auto grows where HPS was used the whole time with great results, so I don't think this will hurt. Anybody think this is a bad idea?
 
EZ#2 showing first pistils today. She is 17 days old, which is 2 days later then EZ#1 showed hers. I Decided to keep them under the MH for now. I think when I water them today I will introduce EZ#1 to some grow big @ 1/4 strength.She is 19 days old now. If anyone disagrees with this, please let me know. I will update later with pics.Thanks
 
I would hold off on the nutes for now.. the Ocean Forest is still feeding them for probably another week. I burned mine when I tried to introduce nutes too soon in OF.

Is your HPS dual spectrum? If so, switch at any time.. if not, I would hold off until more flowers start to develop. Good luck, your on the right track!
 
This doesn't really make sense to me. Why would someone give you a hard time when it says right on the seed banks' websites that they ship in DVD cases and hide seeds in various items to guarantee delivery. Why would a postal worker waste time monitoring grow forums when the information is readily available on the seed banks' sites. Just a thought...

EDIT: Neko...that is such a kick ass avatar. Bloodsport is a classic.

Hey, thanks man. Yes, in fact. I believe that will be my movie for tonight. :smoke:..Ive been getting cravings for some kick ass. The raid/raid 2 recently sparked that. If you have seen neither of those..DOWNLOAD THEM NOW...There is an english dubbed(voice over) version if interested. Best martial arts film that Ive seen since Ip Man.

While they may say they ship in that, the other various items, and how they pack it in the item are not mentioned. Its just better overall not to have the info out there more bountiful.

Very nice Grow man. Looks like you got a kick ass set up now. Wish I could do a tent. Thats not an option for me atm, or I would have done that at the start lol.

Im a little jelly.:vibes:
 
EZ#1's cotys are yellow and about to fall off. She turns 3 weeks tomorrow. I decided it was time to introduce grow big @ 1/4 strength. EZ#2 isn't far behind, but she smells way skunkier than her older sister. Both showing pistils. EZ#3 and Critical are doing their thing. Slight canoeing on EZ#3, Been like that for a few days now. Temps are good, moved her out of the fan, rotated spots, and flushed her. Don't know what else to do for her, but she looks good otherwise. Feel free to comment. Here's a few pics... 1. EZ#1 top 2. EZ#1 side 3. EZ#2 4. EZ#3 5. Critical 6. Crop

Yesterday I gave EZ#2 her first dose of nutes. EZ#1 and 2 both seem to be taking it well at 1/4 strength. #3 and critical will need another week or so before they need any. The bottom set of leaves are dying on EZ#2. From what I read this is a normal process and is just the plant shedding those first leaves.(someone please correct me if I'm wrong).

EZ#1 and 2 are growing about 1/2" a day. Bud sites everywhere. Light skunky smell. I ordered my carbon filter today, seems I may need it soon.

I will update in a few days with pics. Peace.
 
Day 28:

All the girls are showing hairs now. The younger ones have caught up to the older ones as far as height. About 12" tall across the board. Growing about an inch/day. Very bushy in there now. I think Critical will be the biggest one. At tomorrows watering I will start the others on 1/4 strength of grow big. I will continue veg nutes until upward growth slows down, then switch to tiger bloom and pop in the HPS. Crazy how fast they grow now. Got me a jewelers loupe. Will be back with another update soon with better pics

Well I have a problem(or a blessing in disguise) The Critical may not be an auto, but a photo. It was a freebie from herbies, and I assumed it was an autofem, but turns out to be just a regular fem. I thought I saw hairs like the EZ's, but at a closer glance they are not. So I've decided to dive into the world of cloning. I'm going to take some cuttings from her and start probably 6 clones in rockwool cubes. Then veg them with the autos. This will no doubt save me $$ on seeds for my next grow, which I wanted to do photos anyway.

I will continue this journal for the 3 easy ryders, and probably start a new one for the Critical clones. Peace.
 
Day: 32

Yesterday I did some light LST to EZ#1. Pretty much just tied down all the exterior branches just a little, sort of just to "open her up" so more light could penetrate to the lower areas. She looks much wider and happier now. She also has only grown 1/2" in 5 days so with today's watering, I switched her to tiger bloom. I'm still gonna use the MH for now.

EZ#2 & 3 are still happy vegging out. They are 14.5" tall now, still focusing most of their time getting taller instead of making buds like #1 has done.

I ordered some cloning gel and rockwool cubes that should be here tuesday. I will be cutting Critical up to make some clones, probably 6. I'll probably just keep the best 3 and roll with those for my next grow.

I will return in a few days with updated pics. :smoke:
