Alwaysnoob's stealth indoor grow in the middle of nowhere

The big plants were flipped on March 9th…
I see pistils on only 2, i don’t think I’ll be seeing flowers anytime soon, hence they have been moved back to give way to youngsters…

Those small plants are in 13/11 (150w +40w) from start, 4 of them are autos and one is sour bubble, all receiving 321 part nutes.
I have ordered one 150w light, as soon as I receive it i might seperate the flowering and veg plants…
Also, covered the window with panda paper…

Did some supercropping to limit the stretch…
Even though i have about 10 feet of head space in total, i don’t want them to stretch that high…

Quick update…
Nothing much going on my grow room…
Same old 4 Landraces, 2 confirmed female, 2 still not throwing any pistils or balls even after 8 weeks…

Sour bubble 12 hours on, 13 hours off from seed…

Whenever a blubbery makes it past seedling it turns out to be a male in my grow…
But this time I don’t wanna cull it, since it looks and stretches good. Also, it might be a sign LoL…
Having said that i have no experience in making seeds or collecting pollen, so i might shake the whole plant upside down on the desired candidates when the time comes…

I am desperately in need of seperate grow room for veg before sour bubble starts throwing balls or pistils.
I tried to modify this rack like thing into a grow tent, its 6’*4’*1.5’ . It looks very narrow and i don’t like it.

I wish I had some ganja this time to help me come up with any solutions :sweat_smile:

Questions:
I am dissatisfied only with the reflective sheet, so if i am to disregard that and go with only black tarpaulin how much light i will lose?
If it isn’t too much then i might be able to temporarily use it for veg and keep it for clones in the long term…

Thanks brother…

Lol. this triggers a specific idea, what if we disregard the whole 24 hours a day concept and program our timers for 24 on and 6 off consecutively :thinking:

Probably not too much. If it were for a flower tent where you want to blast them with as much light as possible within reason then I would have concerns.

For veg I expect it’ll do just fine :+1:

Hey @alwaysnoob , can I ask what don’t you like about the panda film?

It’s not sticking to tarpaulin brother, it’s slacking all over…
I don’t think it’s a film, it more or less looks like a bigger version of A3 paper… (Could easily be destroyed by water)
After a good night’s sleep, i have decided to spray paint it in white color…

Looking good. Wrapping your shelving for a veg area will absolutely work. The sheeting is a pain in the ass to me, but it’ll function

Yep…
I was fooled by the indica leaning leaves lol…
If it turns out to be a female, then the smoke is gonna be some :fire: if i finish it successfully…

I’d buy some panda poly(black on 1 side bright white on the other ) it’s rigid water proof with a roll of duct tape and your frame pick up a 6 ft zipper at a paint store and make a decent cheap tent .

My mistake. I mistook it for the black and white poly that @ShiskaberrySavior spoke of. Yes a product easily damaged by water would be inappropriate for sure. I would second his recommendation to get a roll of panda poly, if available to you. Also velcro strips can be use to make a closeable door/flap. Good luck with your new veg space!:grin:

Thanks brother, the panda poly is not available in my country atm so i plan to spray paint it for the time being…
The reason I’m so frugal with my grow area is i Know it’s temporary. Me and the wife already decided to allot 2 seperate rooms ( not less than 10’*10’) for grow after the move.
I have so much planned for the new place, including airconditioner.
Hope all that happens ASAP…

I think it might be safe to assume that these plants finished stretching. Now i can expect them to start producing flowers/pollens…

Noticed some tip burn and purpling in the stems, so i eased back a little bit on micro, gro and boosted a little on bloom…
Coz I have noticed increasing bloom reduced stem purpling in the past…


As for this blubbery male, the empty and premature pollen sacs started to pop, I’m just gonna let it do its thing until i see some pollen sprinkling on the leaves…

PS: my veg shelf/tent is not fully ready yet…
