lol huh? Random insults??? How is it a smaller grow.....? You did read about the mixture of seeds, transplanting, and nutes right? Thanks for watching.

Thanks bigtop, I'm transplanting the original 3 tomorrow. I will paper towel the seeds that didn't pop and put them outside.

Thanks headshake. I will add another update/pics in a day or two.

FourTwenty4Life · #30 (**permalink**) Apr-05-2009, 22:34

Another Kush popped up today. That brings the total to 6 with 3 being feminized. If the other G13 is female and at least 1 8BK, I'll end up with 4 diff strains....8ball kush, g13 thai super skunk, g13 super skunk (yes they are different), and finally the white dwarfs.

I really enjoy tending the plants when I'm under their vapor spell

BigLeagueJew · #31 (**permalink**) Apr-05-2009, 23:37

looks good man keep us posted.

FourTwenty4Life · #32 (**permalink**) Apr-06-2009, 13:56

I transplanted the 2 dwarfs and G13 SS into potters with just Fox Farm Ocean Forest. I will start using Grow Big in a few more days. The G13 is really taking off and looking quite healthy. The dwarfs are still short but are very healthy. This is my first time growing dwarfs with regular MJ plants. So far so good!

I'm trying not to post too much in here because there isnt much to see. I will be switching off the light trio and switching to my 400w Metal Halide conversion bulb in my HPS ballast. This combined with nutes in a few days should promote a healthy vegetative stage. pH is around 6.0 and temp/humidity is 75F/45%. I know it's a little dry. I will only post pics once a week until flowering or if I encounter a problem. Stay tuned!

In soil I run the PH at 6.8,there's a chart floating around here that explain's what's right for ph,but i dont have a copy of it in this PC.

I'll be following along! I have almost the exact same setup as far as soil(and perlite) and lighting. Plants are looking good you should post an update!

Ahh thank you very much!! TY to Dive & Mike too, I'll be watching your log too.

I will start switching the plants to their first taste of darkness @ 20/4 for a week or two starting this Friday (same day as starting FF Grow Big). I will post pics this weekend. Thanks for watching, feel free to subscribe.

I adjusted pH to 6.8 tonight during watering. The temp has gone up to 79F while the humidity dropped to 39%. Do you guys think I should add a humidifier? I leave a window open for about 8 hours a day while an air purifier helps with the other 16 hours. Humidity is fluctuating between 33%-45% depending on light/air/time of day. I don't notice any deficiencies yet.

headshake · #40 (**permalink**) Apr-08-2009, 23:05

your humidity is fine. as long as it's under 90% or so you are okay. this is for veg of course. for flower you want it around 30-40%.

i think my numbers are right, close anyway.

lunarose · #41 (**permalink**) Apr-09-2009, 00:43

I am really looking forward to seeing how your dwarfs turn out. Mine took longer then 8 weeks they finished in 10.

Divestoned · #42 (**permalink**) Apr-09-2009, 03:59

79 F and 40% is just great,dont change a thing.

hey 420, I see you have the digitek ballast even one of the newer, purple models.
How do you like it, have you tried putting a fan to it and keeping it very cool, also have you put a wattage meter up to it and seen what your maximum, wattage draw is and and at what time?
Also, have you used regular ballasts, how do they compare to the light start up procedure or sequence of the digitek? How do they compare on wattage draw and what time does your max draw take place are they at different times (the digi and the reg. ballast)? Which one do you like better? Have you used both type of bulbs MH and HPS on the digitek ballast? How did they compare to each other on the same ballast, as far as a fire up sequence? Did the MH take allot longer to fire up than the HPS? And I think finally do you take light readings and measurements throughout the light cycles and bulb's life's?

just curious about those digiteks, I hear so much bad about em, but I have never seen anything better other than the sun.

Hey 420, just been ready up, congrats so far, by the sounds of it, things are on there way

I've just started a few seeds myself. Kiwi Strain, dont know much about it, i've heard a couple things but not much. This will be my 3rd time around, and from my knowledge your doing awesome so far, and like a few said before me your humidity is fine, temp is fine. Awesome sir.

Im gonna have to start my own log shortly, i just started germinating.

Hello. I like it. It stays cool. I didnt check wattage. This is my first time with this ballist setup. Yes Ive used MH and HPS in it and you would already know this had you actually read my log...

They fire up just fine, few seconds of dim light then full boar. They take about the same time. No I dont take light readings because I can afford new bulbs whenever I need them

Thanks for your comments. Some of my plants are using the sun in their grow cycle so I'll get to compare inside VS outside.

Thanks for watching and welcome ! Good luck on your grow and if you need any help, these forums provide a vast arsenal of knowledge . You Canadians have some good beer and Bret Hart is an icon! lol Stay tuned, I'll be posting more pics sometime this weekend.

FourTwenty4Life · #47 (**permalink**) Apr-13-2009, 11:37

I finally took some more pictures but didn't get around to putting them up with all the Easter feasting I was doing

If you notice any white patches in the pictures, it's just for safety measures. All of these pictures were taken right BEFORE I watered them so if they look dry, that's why. I also turned off the MH light so I could take pictures easier.

Pictures:
1st-White Dwarf 1
2nd-White Dwarf 2
3rd-G13 SS Fem
4th-G13 Thai SS
5th-The whole family

FourTwenty4Life · #48 (**permalink**) Apr-13-2009, 11:42

Any small little sprouting cups you see are just going to be in there temporarily for a few weeks then going to random discreet locations outside. I'm sorry if any of the pictures are hard to see.

Here are more pics.
1-The droopy 8 Ball Kush
2-White Dwarf 1
3-G13 Thai SS
4-G13 Thai SS
5-White Dwarf 1

Thanks man. Yeah it seems I'll have about 10 plants growing at random, middle of nowhere locations within a 10 mile radius of my house.

Only 3 or 4 plants will finish inside.

I'm having some trouble maintaining a 40-50% humidity. I've been in the 60-68% range the last few days. Temp is around 65F-73F.
