turtle power 2 Posted July 6, 2004 Hey Kwekende nederbelgen-hollanders We gaan er nog maar eens tegenaan, iedereen verstaat toch engels hoop ik This time we are growing 2 Santa Maria's and 2 Nlx's side-by side. It will be exciting to see how these two varieties perform next to each other. As you can see we are growing them on cocos. This airy medium allows for rapid root development and plants get bigger and branchier because of this. Cocos doesn't get hard on top like soil when it dries out which makes it easy to water. It sucks up every last drop of moist and is almost impossible to overwater on cocos. A week later and you can already see a big difference. The plants have started to grow and are branching out nicely. We have recently topped our plants because we have limited headspace. If we remove the headshoot of the plants, the plants will stop growing upwards and start growing more sideways. This is an effective method to keep plants with alot of growing potential small. Yep, only trees allowed in our grow showroom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turtle power 2 Posted July 6, 2004 Another week growth later, the difference is huge. The plants have really started to grow fast because they have established a root system in the cocos. Two weeks of growth and look at the size of our plants, looking lush and green. First week of flowering. The plants wil start dubbeling in size in the next three weeks of flower. Its really gets interesting from now on. White hairs will pop up everywhere and start to grow into large bunches forming the actual buds later on in flowering. Second week of flowering. You can clearly see a big difference with the previous week. The budsites have grown alot and will become bigger and bigger overtime. The plants are still growing alot and will continue to do so untill week 3 of flowering. Then the plants will stop growing and start paying more attention to the development of big buds.

kwekeling 4 Posted July 6, 2004 ziet er lekker uit maar 4plantjes onder een 600?? watter wrom ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pro 0 Posted July 6, 2004 waarom niet??? je kan met een 600 watt hps zo'n 1,5 vierkante meter mee bescheinen ( voor een goed resultaat) en daar kan je net zo veel of weinig planten op zetten als je wil. het is alleen wel beter om er zoveel mogenlijk op te zetten want zo druk je de stroomkosten een beetje. omdat hoe meer planten hoe minder ruimte ze hebben om te groeien dus kan je ze veel eerder laten bloeien. pro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
atmosphere 40 Posted July 6, 2004 Ja inderdaad , het is vaak rendabeler om met veel planten te werken . Zo heb je ook een veel gelijkmatigere verdeling ,zodat elke top ongeveer op dezelfde afstand tot de lamp groeit. Maar deze foto's zijn een uitstekend voorbeeld van een goede kweek uit stekjes op aarde . now,thats the way you do it - Grote potten /veel grond geeft een stabiel wortelmilieu, en voor een aantal weken hoef je niks bij te voeden . De bladeren zijn diepgroen en stevig met heel duidelijk zichtbare nerven. Uit zaad gekweekte kunnen nog beter worden . En dan bedoel ik nog compacter en lager ,met een dikkere stam. Er is wel wat extra kennis en ervaring voor nodig . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turtle power 2 Posted July 8, 2004 Today the thirth week of flowering, because the grower that normally takes care for the plants was away to party a couple days, we stupid bastards forgot to fill the reservoir. The plants got very thristy and that why they look a little yellowish. The plants have sucked the moist from the leaves to stay alive. Give it another week and they will be looking lush and green again. Flower formation is still going strong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
