Hey everyone!
This is my first grow. I bought a 32x32 in grow tent, 250 watt digital ballast, 4" fan+filter combo and a reflector which turned out to be way too big. It basically takes up the whole tent (lengthwise)
Im using Fox Farm soil and will be using fox farm 3 part nutrients. Also I have botanicare's liquid karma and cal-mag.
The strains are:
Honey B x2
Dutch Passion Blueberry x2
Violator Kush
Afgan Kush Ryder (auto)
La Diva (auto)
I poped so many because I didnt think they'd all survive, but they did and as far as I can tell theyre doing good  heres day 18 pics:

In order: tent, temperature, afgan k ryder, honey b, honey b, blueberry, blueberry, violator kush, family photo w/ some parsley & basil on thr right.

starting to have some issues. First of all is it me or do all except one of the girls look really strechy? Secondly the upper leaf tips got burned overnight, but as u can see in the pic, the temps are fine, even though the light is only 12in away from the tops (also in a pic).
should I get more lights (couple cfls?) and pick the 250 watter up a few inches? Try to lower the temps? Start tieing them down?
Also, 1 plant has white blotches on the leafs. Anyone know what could cause that? This is the only one that stayed short, but with the same amount of leaf "sets". hope the picture is clear enouph, if not lmk.

Get the light around 6 inches from the plant as long as the temps stay okay. That should take care of the stretching.

Thanks. But theres some burned tips as is, even at 80 F. or are a couple burned tips worth avoiding streching?

Burned tips is usually a sign of nute burn, not light burn.

It's probably the nutes that are already in the soil. My blueberry and GDP get a little tip burn with FFOF. Some strains are a little more sensitive than others. Get the lights closer man.
No need to start feeding yet.

Thanks a lot guys!
And I realised I cantlower the light because it only covers a small area that way, even with the oversized reflector. I decided to add a few cfls (about 100watt's worth), but payday is saturday so they'll have to strech a little more

Would superthrive help them recover from the burns? Now that I think about it they have been growing slower for a couple of days. Also I watered 4 days ago and the dirt is still moist.

I put in 8 23 watt cfls, so hopefully they wont strech more.
The temps are 80-83F (IS THIS NORMAL?)
How long would you guys say I should keep vegging? I means its already getting cramped and I read that they get 3x bigger in flowering.
Also I decided to try lst. It's the violator kush (tallest one).

Thanks!
I got her as a freebie, and I gotta say...horrible. Maybe its my (absense of) skills but out of all the girls its the strechy-est and has the least amount of leaf sets
Is 80-83F good temps?

Day 30.
Switched to 18/6 lighting. Also checked the pH of the water that came out the bottom of the pot when I watered, 6-6.5 for all of them. New growth still has yellow tips.
Do i start feeding? Start using supplements?(i have liquid karma and cal-mag) If so should i start at half strength even though they are 30 days old?
Also, I'm thinking of transplanting them to 3gal pots tomorrow. Good idea? I'm still worried i might not have enough space later on.
I'm just really lost cause it's been a month, and i haven't added anything except water and liquid karma(once). I feel like i'm starving them but there are no deficiencies...yet. Am i being paranoid? I guess my question is, Do they look healthy for their age?
Also some rusty-yellow spots appeared on the tops of the afgan kush ryder auto, but that was yesterday and the newest leafs are fine. I'd like to know what it was though.
Oh and did i tie them down correctly?
Left to right, starting at the top: Violator Kush; the 2 Blueberry's; 2 Honey B; close-up of spots on the afgan k ryder; the auto's (la diva is the short one); Group shot.

if the leaf tips are yellow theyre good on nutes. i wouldnt feed them quite yet.
rusty yellow spots might be calcium or magnesium. so you might wanna hit it with some calmag.

You should have been using Liquid Karma from the get go. Start it out at 4mls per gallon and work your way up to ten over the next 3 waterings. I use it at a minimum of every other watering, if not every one.
The reason you're not having to use nutrients yet is because they're already present in the soil.
If you want to LST you need to keep tying it down. I'd also recommend topping the main growing shoot that you tied down as well. That will encourage the side branches to take over.

Yes you can start at any time. Just start at about 5 mls per gallon and slowly work your way up to 10mls per gallon.

Ok can someone please explain something to me? I didn't want to ask before because it's probably a stupid question but I can't stop thinking about it. If yellow tips are from the ferts in the soil, why did my plants start developing them After 2 weeks of growth? aren't young plants more sensitive? And shouldn't there be Less nutes in the soil later on, if anything?
I guess i'm missing something here, so if someone can educate me i'd really apreciate it.

Well there's more than one thing that can cause burnt tips. It can be over fert, it could be that your pH is off. Either way if your getting them I would flush with pH balanced water.

Day 36 (5 weeks)
transplanted the 5 photo plants to 3 gal pots and gave a big watering (about a gallon each). I also re arranged the lights and added 2 more 23watt cfl's. Unfortunately, i had no gorilla tape left so i used electrical, and it fell on the biggest branch of the Violator Kush ;( Only a few leafs have burn spots but im guessing she's gonna recover for a while (especially since this was right after transplanting).
Should i swich to 12/12 immediately or wait untill they start growing vigorously again? It's already getting cramped, but on the other hand the 2 auto's will be done in a few weeks and it'll free up some space.

Give it a week to let the plants fill in the new dirt with roots. Then switch to 12/12.

They look fine to me. I'd hold off on feeding. There are nutrients in the new soil for them to feed on.

I wonder how the autos will do with 12/12 lighting.
Im trying to get around an oz from the 2 autos combined and an oz each off the photo-period girls.
Is this realistic??
(so u dont have to go back to see) I have 250 watt hid, 4 23watt 5500K (daylight) cfls, 4 23watt 2700K (bright white) cfls (so 434 watt total) The area is 7x7. Also, im basically gonna harvest every strain at a different time, so there should be room. The Honey B takes 12-13 weeks to flower, violator kush is 10, and blueberry is 8-9. Wish I thought about this before

^ Wrong question?
Anyway, the girls seem to have recovered from the transplanting and are finally showing signs of nute deff (I think). The stems (from the top down) are starting to turn purple/red and most of the first, one leaf, sets are yellowing a little.
The autos are already covered with trichs! i didn't expect that so soon. Supposedly, the afgan kush ryder has 3 weeks to go and la diva has 4, but it looks real skimpy for now-_-
I have a few questions about feeding.
1. Do i refer to the fox farm feeding chart?
2. Do i start with half or 1/4 dose? I can mix separate solutions for the sativa (they're the more sensitive ones right?)and indica dominant.
3. Do i even start feeding the sickly BB that still has burnt leaf tips?

 Tall BlueBerry
 Honey B 2

Oh and they are posing in front of a lightproof intake I made for flowering. Works perfect, but takes up a lot of space.

as for the one with burnt tips if i saw new growth thats heathy i would feed but thats up to you.
what do you need to know about 12/12 put the lights on and make sure they dont get any light on there off cycle

Yea grow big is for vegging, tiger bloom is for flower, big bloom is used for both but has very low npk.
I did week 1 flower (according to ff feeding chart) divided by 2. 1 tsp is 4.9 ml.
It seemed like a lot but I had no choice..

Day 5 Flowering
I somehow managed to fck up the afgan kush ryder
And i really had to water them (it was right b4 lights off that i noticed this) right then so i ran a gallon of water threw the akr and fed everyone:
8ml Tiger Bloom
5ml Liquid Karma
4ml CalMag
12ml Big Bloom
The ph of the runoff water was 6.5 for everyone. so i'm guessing this was cal deficiency?

Soil Growers:
1. Are you growing from seed or clones?
2. How old are your plants?
3. How tall are your plants?
4. What size containers are they planted in?
5. What is your soil mix?
6. How often do you water and what type of water do you use?
7. What is the pH of your water?
8. What kind of fertilizer do you use and what is its NPK ratio?
9. Do you foliar feed or spray your plants with anything?
10. What kind of lights do you use and how many watts combined? (HPS, MH, fluorescent, halogen, incandescent "plant lights")
11. How close are your lights to the plants?
12. What size is your grow space in square feet?
13. What is the temperature and humidity in your grow space?
14. What is the pH of the soil?
15. Have you noticed any insect activity in your grow space?
16. How much experience do you have growing?

And yeah, it was a weak pheno from the start. It started flowering with 2 leaf sets at 8in. The La Diva had 6 sets and some branching, and it was 6in tall

Autoflowers decide for themselves when they want to flower lol.
Not elaborating because im guessing you just forgot theyre autos. If not lmk, this is actually something that i've been reading up on lately. Got hung up on the idea of only growing autos..or why people don't do it

When I saw (online) that la diva took 7 weeks to harvest from seed, I was positive ill be doing an all auto grow next. But then I looked at actual grows, and they all take 10-12 weeks to finish in soil.. My la diva is over 7 weeks old and never had any problems but still far from harvest (only a couple of hairs turned red).
Anyway, can someone tell me from expirience how long it takes for a burned plant to recover? Estimate?

How burnt? physically or nutes?
A plant that has burnt 1 or 2 leaves due to your light being too close will recover in just 2-3 days in my experience. I can not answer that question if you are talking nute burn. Too many varieables

correct, the leaves will not repair/heal. the plant will just move on using what good foliage is left. I just meant the upward growth slows down after the burn for a few days.

I think i got a serious problem. Tried attaching the carbon filter yesterday (cause they are really starting to smell ) and it just kinda blocked off the fan There was barely a breeze coming out of the sides of the filter. This was sold as a fan+filter combo but it was cheap (i think 120$ish).
I really don't want to get another fan (only need 1), but if i have to i will. Is there a way to check if the air is getting exchanged enough times? Except finding dead plants when the lights turn on?

You should be pulling through the filter, not pushing. Could be your issue. Mind throwing up a link so we know what you're dealing with?

Could have swore I answered this b4.. My bad man I must have forgot to hit submit or something
No I didnt take clones, but (except the 2 autos) I have more seeds of all the strains. i'd love to try cloning but I only have one grow space, so thats not possible while im flowering.
And yeah my "sirious problem" was exactly that >.<
Theres still very little flow so il prolly have to attach another fan somewhere along the duct so theres no positive pressure (or is it bs that positive pressure is bad in a tent?).
See, I have a waaay oversized reflector, and only one fan exhausts and cools the light, so theres no way to attach the filter to the fan except by attaching it to the reflector. So ill have to get a 6" to 4in duct reduc. and position the filter right above the light, adding a 180° turn to the duct.
anyone wanna see updated pics? Or should I just wait till it gets all frosty (it kiinda is but not really)

Update:) day 21 flowering (65 days total)
Decided to take out the afgan kush ryder to give the big girls some more space, im probably not getting much off of it anyway and the trichs look milky. Ill keep it in a closet for a couple days before chopping, maybe it'll purp a little? Also took a sample nug from the middle of the plant, will report in a couple hours.
Big BB. n defficiency? The second pic is with the hps off.

Thanks!
Do youmean how much I spent on it or how much yield I think ill get?
Spent about 550$ so far, hope to get an oz per plant and maybe an oz off the 2 autos.
So I dried that afgan kush ryder nugget in the oven. Went from 1.9 wet to .6 cracker dry. Really rouph on the inhale and tastes like grass(hope a proper drying and cure will take care of that).
The buzz came on verry quickly, couldn't tell if it was more of a head or a body high, seemed like a mix. Maybe it's all in my head, but I felt really high for longer then I usually do

Idk, it keeps getting worse even though I upped the nutes. I can't be sure cause I'm overseas ( roommate is doing the watering). That's why I haven't been on here too
Maybe he's not doing what I'm telling him... Then again, Im not even sure it was a deficiency to begin with

If we wanted to detour into a tech nerd electronics discussion, we could spend a long time explaining high frequency sawtooth waves, but it’s enough to know that high frequency sawtooth wave digital ballasts are bad for your expensive HID bulbs, and that the old school digital ballasts have built-in inefficiencies that waste electricity and plant potential.

interesting, though it doesn't really go in detail about the technology.
idk how to tell a sawtooth wave ballast from a square wave ballast though. Manufacturers don't seem to specify...at least on e-bay =d
