*Closet Grow* logbook, day 20

you need to raise that light up those edges on the leaves are almost curling inward and are raised to hard ridges- id raise it up an inch or two beacuse that is stunting the plant- the meristem leaves will start curling and twisting thinly coming out the top yellowing almost like nuteburn and then can start to turn white if the plant grows upward enough (this happens more frequently with hid lighting) and puts growing tward a halt. side lighting or at least some good reflective matierial like mylar would help slowed lower growth....


a little goes a long way when growing, it can make all the difference in the world


my .02

 

Thats an HPS? Why is it giving off such a red? Usually its that weird yellowish color not this dark red in your pictures...

 

the plant looks good- more like a 50-50 sativa/indica the curling is making it look more sativa in my opinion... lighting looks like CF's

 

you have a nice space in that closet, although it seems you are getting some stretching going on there. it seems you are confused with nutes a little bit.


My advice would be not to make things to complex with feedings and such.


for veg i use a 1-1-1 ratio and for flowering a 1-2-1.


im not sure about the soil you are using but i would recommend trying an organic potting soil of some sort. My first times growing in soil were so simple and all i did was add water for the first month and i had the greenest little thing ever.


Slowly you introduce dilute amounts of 20-20-20 and see how they respond.


As for pH levels with my crops, i never really checked anything and still managed to get something lovely.


ive seen 1000 watt HPS in spaces like urs. thats def something to consider down the road bacause no offence but anything less than 600 is ballz. Not to bash the micro guys because i do respect the fact that people have budgets, but most people in here will prob agree..silently.


im looking at ur pics and i would say try a screen of green to increase yield. You can get multiple colas and pack em nice and close to ur lamp.


your plant lookes rly nice so keep up the good work. Happy Growin

 

i would reccomend taking 2 clones and grow em up nice like you did there. All you gotta do is prune em a bit and encourage side growth. Another way is low stress training but im not to familiar with that. put em in the corner of ur closet and mount a screen and let em grow thru it nice, then u flower and boom. You will get way more bud this way guaranteed.

 

Ya do you know what strain it is cause it looks alot like the Haze we grew out except i'm pretty sure our fan leaves were even thinner, one thing pretty characteristic of haze and other high sativas are those pinecone looking buds, you can't really see the ovules like you maybe used to seeing on other plants. Those damn sativas have some ass leafy buds sometimes. let us know how it turns out.
