My wife and I decided to start keeping a journal of our first grow room. We have our room setup now. The setup is as follows:
Room - 13' x 12' w/ small separate area within the room dedicated to our clones/mother room
System - 4' x 8' Ebb And Flow table w/ 100 gallon reservoir containing 3 water pumps: 2 EcoFlow 264gph units & 1 Sunleaves 396gph used for circulating the water when in reservoir
Lighting - 2 600 watt Digital Greenhouse dimmable ballasts (50/75/100%) powering 2 600 watt MH bulbs (HPS bulbs for flowering) housed in MaxWing reflector hoods
Ventilation - NuTone Heater/Fan/Light bathroom combination unit model 665RP connected to a 20"x6" Phat filter rated at 350 CFM above table with 2 oscillating fans at opposite corners of the grow room.
Nutrients -
Botanicare TriFlex system (Base, Grow, Bloom)
Botanicare Liquid Karma
Hygrozyme
H202
Strains - Afghooey, Burmese Kush, Purple Kush, & Super Silver Haze
These photos were taken 8 days ago the plants were roughly 2 1/2 weeks old at the time.

This marks the end of the 3rd week that our girls have been with us, and they're growing faster than I thought they would for sure!
OK, so forgive us both for not starting out our journal until now, but we finally just transplanted our ladies into their new 3 gallon pots for the remainder of the grow. Only 5 25 lb bags of hydroton to fill them up (Thank all that is holy that stuff is reusable.)
Funny quote from the transplant session : "I think I figured out why the Burmese Kush was growing so slow, babe"
"Why?"
"They were just further down in the pot than all of the others!"

Purple Kush

So thanks to that little tidbit I believe we will be ready to initiate the flowering sequence. Good thing too, because that Super Silver Haze grows VERY quickly. Thankfully we definitely have room to go up a little bit.
Transplanting went along just fine, until I decided to flush out the bag of hydroton and it fell over spilling about a good 5 gallon bucketful of it all over the driveway. Rookie maneuver lol
My favorite part of the transplant was being able to peek in at the roots' progress. The roots are looking fantastic! Thick, white, meaty tendrils of power! Looks like a little hygrozyme and h202 do the trick indeed. Was worried that we might catch a little root rot, but not the case for sure. Whew!
Anyways, tune in next time and we should have some nice pictures of all the girls as they transition into flowering mode.

OK everyone. We got the reservoir, water pumps, hoses, and the table all cleaned up and switched over to start flowering mode up! Took out the MH's and screwed in those beautifully orange HPS bulbs to begin the 12/12 schedule. If you're wondering, the lights are on 8AM-8PM PST.
Fresh nutrients as follows:
Botanicare Triflex Base - 1000 ml
Botanicare Triflex Grow - 1000 ml
Botanicare Triflex Bloom - 1000 ml
Botanicare Liquid Karma - 1000 ml
Hygrozyme - 1000 ml (see a pattern here?)
H202 - 300 ml
Fresh 100 gallons of H20 coming in at 7.13 before nutes and 5.9 after, so I felt good about not having to pH Down the reservoir! Tested the water at just a hair over 100 ppm before nutes and ended up at 1965 ppm afterwards. Let's get those ladies all fat and happy now!
07/14/2011 Day 1 of Flowering
Temperature : AM-64F PM-74F
Humidity : AM-70%, PM-61%
Water Temp : 69F-72F
pH : AM-6.2 PM-6.3
ppm : 1960
Looks good this morning, they were a little droopy after the res change and the cleaning, but they perked right back up this morning. Checked on em later in the day, and that bulb sure took a while to get to 100% but damn if it ain't full capacity now! Looks awesome. Good night ladies!
07/15/2011 Day 2 of Flowering
Temperature : AM-65F PM-78F
Humidity : AM-71%, PM-65%
Water Temp : 69.3F
pH : AM-6.1 PM-6.2
ppm : 1990
Looking good this morning. The topped Silvers look like they're healing quickly. It seems as though the temperatures while they have been steady, picked up 3 degrees. Nothing major just a little warmer than usual. We have had rain the past 4 days so I expected the increase in humidity. The Purple Kush has really taken a shine to the change. They're really bushing out now. The Silvers and the Afghooey look as impressive as ever. The Burmese are also looking as though they enjoy being a little higher in the pot as well.  All in all, the plants are coming right along. Here's some pics!
See you next time! We appreciate the feedback guys. Keep growing!

Here we are 8 days into flowering all of the plants are looking great (and wow do they grow fast) but the Silvers are giving us some trouble... Any thoughts on why the leaves are drooping down like this?
