I never should have started this. My fault. Please keep comments to my grow log. I would rather not have pages and pages in my thread dedicated to boobies.

If you'd just delivered on your initial promise of tittays months ago then this wouldn't be an issue!
That said, I'm continually surprised by how nice your plants look. How're the ones doing that just started on 12/12?

Everything in the flowering room looks great.
However, I was just doing some work in my veg room and found this.

I'm freaking out because I think it is mold....

Yea, but if it is in the veg room, there is a possibility it is in the flowering room too.
I just went to the hydro store and purchased SNS-244. I am definitely spraying it in the veg room when lights go out tonight. Will probably spray some in the flowering room just as a precaution.

It's been a while, so here you go.
Remember the seedlings?

Shouldn't have started the seeds.
Running out of space.
Optimized the space in the vegetative grow room. Or tried to....

plants looking good. reluctant to get enthusiastic due to that mildew scare....

One of the original seedlings.

LST at work on another original seedling.

So many vegetative plants!
WTF?
Way to think things out.

And in to the flowering room...
Day 12 of flower.

Yet another one of my original seedlings up there front row ready to flower like crazy.


and the clones i purchased....
no training on them transplanted, rooted, flowered

not really eager to make videos due to the mold scare and my warcraft addiction.

Those are 1kW HPS you're flowering under right? If so you have them way closer together than is necessary, usually the rule is a 4x4 footprint per kW.
I like it better this way

Yea, they are 1000w. I guess having them close worked out good because it's a dense jungle in there and those girls need as much light as possible.
There's a few pieces of advice I would give all noobs trying to pull something like this off.....
Plan your shit out way in advance. Put a lot of thought in to the actual placement of your equipment.
Don't buy 30 clones and start 30 seedlings unless you have lots of room and equipment.
Harry, I was looking through your log and I really love that picture you have in the center on your signature of maneater. I used that as my desktop background.
I do have a question,Harry. The very first plant in your log.... guess I better look it up.... "The Bubblegum Clone" that lived from the previous round, I noticed you kept chopping the top. Was this to conserve space? I loved the roots on that plant. Would you suggest cutting some of my plants that are in vegetative growth like that? I was thinking it would help with my space problem and keep the size of the plants down until it comes closer to their flower time. Just wondering what you thought.

I basically just trimmed it down in order to keep all my plants a similar size so I could get that nice even canopy. Since that plant had such an established root system compared to my clones I knew that it would grow WAAAYYY faster than the newer plants so I just tried to keep it cut back so everything would stay nice and even.
And yes, cropping your plants like that isn't detrimental in the slightest, if you're having space issues I would definitely recommend you do the same. One thing you should keep in mind though; when you cut the apical meristem off (the primary point of cell division at the top of each branch) then the axial buds (the branching sites at each node) will receive and auxin signal to rapidly grow. So your plants will get smaller, but a couple days later they're going to explode with bushy growth so you'll have to keep an eye on them and do some consistent pruning.
Good luck! I'm glad you like that picture

So far, all of my plants have never been cropped, just tied down. So they have monster main stems. I think I will cut the top tip and take it from there. But I'm not really sure. They are way too bushy, so I might take a more aggressive approach. Will keep everyone updated.

I always combine a cropping with a tie down.

I know I just put up a happy video but I was only like that because I was drunk. Here's the real deal. I keep finding mildew. At first I kept telling myself it was from lack of air exchange, but who knows? Maybe the clones I purchased had it. I am very worried my garden may be ruined. This is the 3rd and final time we are trying to get it under control. The thing is, the plants in flower look beautiful. But their lowest set of leaves always look like that leaf in the picture above when I first found the mildew.
I have no idea how much of this mildew is in the buds, or how the plants will look by the end of flower. We are not sure if we should just start over or what. This sucks.
So tonight we ripped the room apart. Sprayed everything down, room and plants. And we pretty much butchered the plants. I fear all my bud will have mildew in it and I can't sell that.
Here are some pics I took, as we were half way through the job. You can see the clones were all trimmed and sprayed and allowed to dry before we began loading them back in to the flowering room.

I don't see any mildew in the newest pics, but I guess that shit is hard to see with the HPS on.
What's your RH in the grow space?
