I am going to get my new light today I'm so excited. I'm getting a 430w hps light and the rest of the things I need to complete my new grow rooms. This means I can have the space needed for proper veg/mother/clone room and a room to flower in.

I was thinking I would run the hps 24 hr for a week to finish vegging what I have before switching to 12/12. This way I can take some clones off prior to putting them into flower. I will post some pics of the rooms after the weekend if I get both finished.

Lucky, Looks good so far, I had some lower leaves curling like that and just gave them a little more water and it seemed to help. Looking forward to seeing the grow rooms when they are done.

Thanks alot 1hitter I am just leaving the little curls on the little girls (LOL) for now it is only a few leaves affected. I will post the pics of the construction of my grow rooms for the whole group to look at. It is my first attempt at it so I documented and took lots of pics in hope it helps someone one day. I did it on the cheap and it should be done this weekend if I can get my hands moving again. LOL

And... I just got home with my new light. Did I say new light? I'm sooooo happy can you tell? New light 430w hps I'm excited I want to hook it up but I'm wiped out today. So, maybe tommorrow. Thanks for dropping by.

lookin' good man, very healthy! and don't sweat that this is part II, on my
first attempt i popped 30 beans and managed to kill them all, lol.

part II, i popped 30 more and only managed to keep 5 of those alive, fortunately,
4 were females and they supplied my first attempt at a SOG for some months,
right up until i got some better gear and was able to retire the bagseed, lol.

also, that panda isn't something you'll find just anywhere, you have to get it
on-line or at a grow shop and it runs around $100.00 for a 100 foot roll so not
so bad when you really think about it. (i used about 20 feet to construct a
fruiting chamber in my closet that supplied me with about 2 zips per week for
the last 6 or 8 months so well worth the dough)

Thanks bozo I did get the panda plastic today as well as my new light... Did I say new light? LOL sorry I'm excited to get some new gear can you tell? The plastic was a buck a foot x 10 feet so I got that too.

Boy you walk into a good grow store and the stuff in there sakes alive if I were a rich man. Not knocking the guy who owns the store don't get me wrong he sells it at a fair price I guess. It's just hard when you are not working and lights are 300 and plastic is 40 and then you need ..... You know how it goes but I'm just happy to have a nice light now. It was tough starting and wondering when am I going to get it and now I got one.

Thanks for having a look. I will post more pics this weekend once all is set.

1hitter we all come out of the womb the same way IMO. This only makes us human and seeking knowledge. Please ask questions or if you know the answer help someone with it.

that's what makes the cannabis culture so special, that willingness to help each other!

we're not strangers here, just friends that haven't met yet!

I8ntLucky_UR · #31 (**permalink**) 05-17-2009, 04:58 PM

Okay I have almost finished my 2 grow rooms. For now I have 1 all but completed and I ran out of energy and I'm a hurtin unit right now.

So, the room almost complete has my new 430w hps light in it. I thought I would put this to work until I get the other finished. I fired it up and behold let there be MY LIGHT!

I re potted all my plants and threw them under this new wonderful light. I will run them 24hr take some cuttings sometime this week then next week flip them to 12/12.

And I took pictures of them all shiny and happy. Can you see all the smiles???? Okay you can't see mine but it's there.

Here are the 5 plants.....

lookin great lucky, lovely ladies-

I8ntLucky_UR · #38 (**permalink**) 05-25-2009, 10:33 AM

Here is an update. I had a little set back last week after I got my new light. It was a bit too hot in there so I went back under floro's until I could get my ventilation and fan hooked up.

I put in a 245 cfm squirrel cage fan with some ducting and now my temps are at 78 degree steady. I also bought some GH nutes which I will get them on right away. Starting off low dose at first till they get used to it.

So, here they are under the new light and fan. I have lots of new growth to take some cuttings this week. Then I will put these into flower first of next week. I have these dark ruby lines in the main stalks.
