Indoor Northern Lights + Amnesia Haze - Royal Queen Seeds! [600WMH/HPS][BIOBIZZ]

[FruZzLE]

Hello everyone!

I hope you are having a great day, I sure am!
Today I'd like to present to you my first growth attempt.
I purchased Northern Lights Automatic and Amnesia Haze automatic from Royal Queen Seeds. Until now, I'm very pleased with that company, their seeds and their customer support, I'd easily vouch for them.

I'm using a HomeBox XL 120x120x200cm tent. In that tent I have a 600W MH which will be changed to 600W HPS when the time comes.

For ventilation I have an LTI Fan (125mm - 350M3/H) and a carbon filter of the same diameter.

I'm using BioBizz Light Mix soil and have bought BioBizz organic nutrients (Grow / Bloom / TopMax).

I planted the seeds straight into 15L Smart Pots to minimize plant stress and allow them to develop a healthy massive root system, so they can also get massive!

Now, the pictures!

Some questions:

I was wondering if they'd stretch more and grow taller if I turn my 600W MH from 24/0 to 20/4, and if so, when to turn it?

I was thinking of giving them a feed when they reach day 11 or so, 0,5 ml of Bio Grow along with 850ml of distilled/tap (mixed) water.
Right now they all receive about 500ml of clear water.

Hey Fruzzle

Nice lookin kids you got there.

I am REAL interested in how these turn out, especially the Amnesia Auto.

I will be back to see this one.

Peace out

Eek

Will keep you updated mate!
What I was wondering since it's my first auto batch is the size and the rapid growth they have later on. I was told by seasoned photoperiod growers that they probably won't be capable of producing more than 20g each but I really doubt it after seeing plenty of other reports of Northern Lights from RQS. They are a while ago but I am pretty sure RQS just got better in terms of quality over time, they can't have gone worse!
Saw reports of people pulling plenty of oz's with less lamp power and more starting issues so I'm convinced my babes can do so as well!
Thus here I am at the autoflower network!
Side note: any opinions on light cycle? I want to grow plants with mass and am not in a hurry, my pots are 15L so I think they can handle it with the proper cycle, I currently have 24/0.

 

[Eekman]

Maybe we can get someone in here with some more experience in the way of Royal Queen Seeds. I see peeps easy get two OZ per plant.

See if people can give you some feedback there.

Peace

Eek

The images I posted before were yesterday's. The Amnesia Haze 1 and Northern Lights 1 showed good growth in a day span, check them out:

Amnesia Haze 1: Day 11

Northern Lights 1: Day 9

Leaves got amazingly wider and longer. Really used up yesterday's watering of 500ml today. Haven't fed anything yet. Got them few cm closer to lamp, they're about 70cm away now. Nothing big to report on the rest of the plants, just basic leaves growing but not at the amazing rate of these two fellas. Thinking of feeding these two either tomorrow or the day after! Will turn to 20/4 on day 14th or so! Keep it green!

Temps: (Soil level) 28,1C or 82.58F
Humidity: 29%

Humidity is a bit low. I was thinking on investing on a humidifier but as I draw closer to day 30, I believe it won't be needed. My next grow will be on another house which will probably accomondate a larger humidity percentage, so I'll invest on a pH meter that I still don't have, a necessary tool for any auto grower in my opinion.
