Soooo for anyone that followed my last grow and my new room build know i have ton going on right now...

This is gonna be my second grow, kinda just threw this together with what i had, been moving and what not cant afford to finish my new room yet, but i need to keep the weed coming in...

anyways i have 5 cuts from a friends plants, 2 blue dream 2 afgan goo, 1 soul train. might ditch the soul train...

my first attempt i grew 5 plants and got a lil over half pound with very little veg time and zero training. so this time round im hoping to get more in the 1 pound range with some decent veg time and a good canopy control.

I'm using bio canna nutes in roots organic soil. magnum xxxl 6" 1000w. thinking about using some 15 gal rectangle containers under a 5x5 screen.

the cuts right after transplanting probably a week ago

Here are some pics i just took...

plants look heat stressed to you? or just to dry... my humidity is between 20-40 its fuckin savage. i need to put a big bucket of water in there or something... wet towel maybe? till i can get a humidifier... lights on 24/0 my last run looked nothing like these, these are twice as bushy with way less node spacing. but they are YELLOW... could they use more nitrogen? im using the original roots, not the high nitro stuff. and i was told my bio canna vega nutes are light as hell. ive given them a little CALMAG too cuz im using RO, it has nitrogen in it also... input will be greatly appreciated...

New room is looking good.

The 1000watt is probably too strong/bright for the clones, possibly/most likely burning them with that 1000watt.

leaves can turn yellow from light bleaching.

I would move the light up farther from the plants. In the pics looks like 12-18" from the canopy.

yeah i was thinking that too, they were under flouros for like 2-3 weeks. my last run had tons of stretch because i had the light too far away. now i think im just over compensating, the plants arent warm or anything, i can leave my hand above them without it getting hot, but i think it might be bleaching them.

im not really worried about those little clones too much. just trying to keep the canopy really even and get some outward growth going on the other five before i get my screen put in there. im gonna give em all the veg time they need to get em just where i want them before i make the flip.

im gonna move the light up a bit, about 20"s? seems like 2 feet is awefully high. i think the magnum is pretty good about throwing the light even inside the hood... its bright all around...

I find it depends on strain. Some I need to keep about 30-32" away at first. Then move down 6" every few days. that is alot of lumens for small plants. I find even larger plants that have not been under a 1000watt need some time to adjust. 2 even 3 feet away is fine. Then can move closer after they adjust to it.

Yes you are correct that having the light too far away can cause more stretch. But more importantly do not want to fry the leaves. if your still in veg then can get away with less lumens than flower as well.

It is good you can hold you hand under the light and it is not hot. But the brightness of the light is what can cause bleaching.

In my experience I found Blue dream bleached easier than others and had to have the light about 30-32" away at first. Then over time moved closer to the plants.

hope that helps

Those plants need nutes in some form or fashion - I'd put them in bigger pots ASAP and give them a light feeding.

I plan on pushing these pots a little. gave em a good feeding of veg nutes and cal mag today.

moved the ballast out of the room. got a different table and moved the light up. and turned my exhaust fan into an intake... temps are staying under 80 now. my friend might be throwin a co2 setup my way, bottle regulator kind, see if i can blow this room the fuck up with a single thousand.

here are the nutes and what not im using/will be using. gonna get some more im sure...

Looks like a little tiny bit of Mg def. I would take a little bit of that CalMag you got there and Foliar spray them. The leaves do look a little varigated and if you spray them with the Calmag or some epsom salt it will go away. Or Foliar with about 200 ppm'd Ph'd water and they should bounce back right away.
Good job on the room build. Looks nice and clean. On one of them pics it looked like you had the clones sitting in water. That can make them yellow out also by sitting in it.
Pretty sure there going to be just fine.

Pretty sure there going to be just fine.

yeah ive been giving foliar feedings of nitrozyme, cal mag, and silica blast. not at the same time but regularly. gave em a good drench in 5ml/gal cal mag today...

i dont have a ppm meter. im trying not to over feed this run...

think a week is too long to wait to transplant?

Get them dark time too ofcourse , they need rest also .

i know a lot of people that run 24/0 i did last run... thinkinh about going to 18/6 to save the 100 bucks on power throughout the cycle...

What you save in power you lose in rent money for the added veg time you need.

Just sayin'.

In my experience plants don't grow any faster under 24/0 than 18/6.

Gave em a good feed today. think i might run 8 or 9 of these plants instead now... the younger ones seem to be catching up quick so i might just try to get em up to the same canopy level and flip the bitches. idk though. the more yield the better...

some more pruning and training from yesterday... the canopy is still looking really even. the younger clones are filling in nicely. still dont look really green, still kinda fried and droopy.
