Indoor First Grow Log 3-4 strains

[VapedAs]

Flooded em just now with 1.4-1.5 EC(eludes my memory) and 5.8 PH

Now my plants are actually growing I can't have "less harvest" during the day I will have to run my 135W to make up for the off time of my 50W over night.
4/6 plants are starting growth in the Nodes, be it leaf/bud/ball sack.. only time will tell
Duurty Dragon width leaf tip-leaf tip is 5.6inches and Purple Jem Width leaf tip-leaf tip is 4.8inches

@Storm
Cheers for checking in, wish we could compare, pot next to pot.

@Stunted
Trying to hold off on the nutes but I'm heavy handed and the DD and PJ love it! Think Cobra #1 is a close third.
The little plant in the corner is the "Mossys Jem" from crazy x seeds. (It's small but is actually taller than rest..)
I have no doubt MJ plant gets less direct light than the rest, but it's also in a tiny pot as I thought it wasn't going to make it passed Germing so was thrown in alongside to just live and do whatever.
Leeolds' Mossys Jem was quite a lanky/tall/stretched plant so might be genetics, once sexing is sorted their will be room under the light.
Heads will roll if they get my Black dragon prego!

Cheers for tips and comments Man! And yep, gotta do what you gotta do.:smokebuds:

it does look like out jems are really close now, ide still say mine are slightly ahead but at current rate you will overtake shortly, though mine have kicked in again and have some heavy internode growth happening.
i know you have 3 days between your purple jems and your mossys jems but how are you finding the comparison?

 

[StormsEniGma]

my last week has had very little growth asides from the internode growth, having to use some fruit and veg insecticide to fully eliminate the gnats may have contributed to the slow down

Yeah sounds like you got some nice node growth where as mine are only showing signs or starting. Once the node leaves make their mark you may find a growth boost then or notice the internode spacings begin to stretch so that those new leaves can get some light and be of use.

Yesterday I put the Mossy Jem directly under 135w and was impressed by the widening of leaves in one light session before even going back to my 50w, going to leave it there under my 50 or 135 today, I came round earlier for "lights on".
It is far behind the Purple Jem and rest but it's the lack of light/TLC and soon I'm sure the smaller pot size will stunt. Not to mention that F'er did not want to germ.
All In All I did a poor comparason of the 2, would still pick Purple Jems over Mossy Jems at this point

Next run will probably have one of each in there, perhaps 2 Mossy Jems to be safe!

I sat down with my fresh mixed bottle of feed ready to flood with 1.4EC 5.8PH

Pick up my first and favorite plant(Duurty Dragon) AAAND WHOOPS dropped/tipped over pebbles, sand, coco everywhere, hope it recovers quickly. I blame these sober shakey hands!

Anyways, all plants still showing fresh growth since I was here yesterday afternoon. I can feel this low level of "lights on period" is hurting BUT that ends in 2 nights then back to 20-24hour "lights on" with 50W. They only seem to handle a couple hours of my 135W in hits.

Just stopping in vap! Looking good bro! I'm right along side in my growth! Im digging the rocks on top! I might try that to keep this stupid soil from trying to float away! What's up with water proof soil anyways? Cool idea bro! :smoke:

Thanks for stopping in man!

Nothing waterproof about it. There is a thin layer of sand inbtween the coco(soil) and the blue pebbles. The layer of sand stops Flying Gnats from borrowing in and laying eggs in the soil, and the pebbles hold the soil and sand in place whilest still letting the water drain through quite easily.

If anything I might call it a Splash Resistant top layering:thumbs: As I hear you on the soil movement when feeding! This has totally fixed that problem for me.
As for the Gnats, they are so much less in number. Just one's left attracted over by the light or smell of the flowering plant I got in there to. 2-3 bugs vs 7 plants.. not bad.

Love to take credit for this idea but Stunted Suggested this great tech to me.

What kind of soil medium are you using? I will have to go check out your profile for pics or threads. Good luck with your grow Bud!

There goes another 11-12hrs of "Lights Off", one more night of that then back living at home with 20+hrs "Lights On":cough:
Came home an hour ago to find lots of fresh looking growth and also what looked like a slight nute burn on acouple older leaf tips so fed with a slightly lighter mix.

Flooded with 1.1 EC and 6.1PH

Still yet to show sex, ladies show up later so fingers crossed!
