New Grow from LANY SS 400

Postby LANY » Sat Aug 24, 2013 12:01 pm

Received light yesterday. It was up in five minutes. Quite impressive. Fan not loud. Solid Construction.

SS 400 - veg mode.
Indoor/ Outdoor grow
3x2 grow area
Coco mix GH drain to waste

6 in veg. 2-ak 48, 1maui wowing, 1- ny power diesel 1- Aurea indica, 1- jock.

Ak and mw will go outside to flower 1-2 weeks, other three will need 3-4 weeks of veg. I will flower two of those w SS 400. First night and they seems to like a lot. I keep them under SS from 6 a to noon.. Noon to 6 direct sun. Then back to SS from 6 p to midnight

Welcome to the forums!

I thought the original MauiWowie went extinct, is this a new strain?

Is there a reason that you give them a dark period during veg?

I got the MW seed from Nirvana. I find 18/6 better than 24 on to veg them. Also saves some electricity.

Yeah, that's a remake of the original, I was hoping that it hadn't gone extinct. It's probably decent though. Are you going to put up pictures soon?

I find that 24/0 is better, for veg, since plants need light for photosynthesis. Without light the plants just stretch the trunk/stems more trying to find light. Since I'm not really after the stems, I'd rather the plants vegged faster and gave me more yield than to save a few dollars on electricity but maybe that's just me. It doesn't take many grams extra to make up for electricity either. YMMV...

I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out... :D

Here we are 30 days post germination. 7 days SS 400. Decent growth. About what I got with for two foot t fives. Too early to tell. Heat a problem for me some some new v,ventilation coming. Plan is one of those four goes outside and I flower the remaking three. 12/12 overnight to help w heat. That will be the test.

Yeah 330w generates some heat that has to be dealt with so hopefully your ventilation upgrades will help. :D

Please give spec's on grow!

pH, temps, nutes, etc.

Hope we can help solve your issues. At first glance I would think nutes, but with out knowing the other areas hard to judge.
