Qwerty's first grow.

So I will give a quick rundown on the most important factors of my grow.


Tent- 5x5x7 quictent
2x mars hydro 144s
1x 1200w blurple.
7gal pots
foxfarm soil
technaflora nutrients.

Strain: Blue Hawaiian

So on Oct 17th a buddy dropped me off 4x plants. He gave me the mother, and 3 clones.

The clones were in rough shape. I have let then show signs of improvment before starting the manifolding.

I am just waiting for the top shoots to get a little longer so I can tie then down. I just finished the topping and removing all lower growth (minus a few fan leaves to see if it will help kick start. They will be removed in a few weeks)

The monther given to me wasnt topped or trained, I have been working on it for a while, slowly expanding its outward growth. I did some lst by tieing the main top down to get rid of its dominance. I had to clean up some leaves to prevent issues from arising (ie:wpm).

I have no issues going on right now, but its a start. Next time a picture is taken, it will be in real light and not leds.

First grow in over 12 years (Gorilla)

Well it's about time there, Will! ;)
Your plants are looking really good, at least under the blurpule, can tell ya been studying up!
I once heard someone talk about earth worm castings being there go to, for sad plants, so I adopted it, and seems to work well. But looks like they are doin' lot's better.
 
Good luck with your first grow Qwertywill. I hope you'll find it just as fun, rewarding, and stress-relieving as many of us. Looks like you're off to a good start. :cool:
 
I think it was due to little nutrients when he was cloning.... i have read the way he was going about it he should have had a small amount of them... i plan on doing the same was as he did, but they were pretty yellow probably a nitrogen deficiency..

But worm castings would be great! Next year I plan on making a worm farm!:)

On a plus, I seen what he was doing, he copied my little dwc cloner lol... same thing I did with my tomato plants this year!
 
No doubt! I check them once a day. Although I skipped the 3gal pots, i went from small containers (seedling ones) right to 7 gal, i water them daily with phed water. But only a small amount.... I want their roots to search for any water in the soil (seemed to have moisture when I put the soil in the pots)

I had the small containers ontop of the soil, little suckers were rooting into my 7gal... i am glad I lifted them daily to look to see if there were any roots! Lol
 
Well, ya know how I am with worms and worm castings! Can never get enough, Lol!
When ya get to making your worm bin, Uncle Jims worm farm is the place to get your worms at, has some good info on his site, to. It's the Red Wriglers you want, or the Eouropean night crawlers. Don't need to buy a fancy bin if you don't want, just drilling lots of holes in the bottom, sides, and lid of a big plastic tote will do the trick. Main thing is just to give them plenty of air with whatever you build for them.
Happy growing!
 
A little bit of bat guano goes a long ways to, when you are in soil, its a key ingredient in stuff like FF Tiger bloom, it doesn't take much at all to help make BIG buds. Would be a bit more tricky to have yourself a "BAT BOX" though, I think! ( I do know more than a couple batty people though).
FF packages the stuff, and uncle jims is probably about the best price on the shipping, cause you can just add it to an order of castings. Depends on what ya want to do for your nutes, though.
 
Ill stick with technaflora and the ff for now see how it goes. With the worms, im just going to pick them all from my yard at night! :) I fish as well, so i always have some lol. Ill be using the two tote method and alternate them, have a tote on the bottom to catch the liquid.
I definitly need to read more into it!

The bats, i dont think they would live here due to winter and the diseases that go along with them here... that white stuff on their nose is happening in the area... some fungus?
 
Warning, this is a lights on picture. I will alternate between the two (lights on/off). If I run into issues I will post in solely natural light for assistance, but you can see the small ones (Clones) are coming along..... full stride now! Their mother is doing VERY well.... I seem to be training her every few days, taking out some leaves to allow more light through. I am trying not to take off too many, but enough that I can keep the steady growth going!

Running 1/2 strength Technaflora in F.F. Everything looks great thus far! :D

Clones.... You mean those little bushes on the left side?? They look awesome! They grew like crazy in 9 days. They must be so happy to be with you, you know, the way dogs and cats are when we rescue them from the wrong situation... ;-}
 
They were hurting! Yellow leaves and some brown. Trimmed the old dying leaves off, have already topped them once. But ya the little bushes!
 
As promised, I said I would upload pictures in normal light, I'm right for all but one (It's just to show size).

Does anyone know what the brown spots are on the one w/ coloured circles? I think I may have gotten some nutes on it while watering, Want to ensure it's nothing serious!
