The SANlight family is growing   you must be loving it bud!! 

There units are really something! Have you  noticed how strong and lush the leaves become? I took a leaf after taking some cheese cuttings, held it at the split of the fingers and the leaf tip and pulled gently. The amount of stretch (if I can put it that way) is insane before leaf blade actually tears!

Flower will be the test indeed but pretty sure its going to be as impressive as what the units are doing to veg. 

Still a big pot  looking  forward to seeing this lady flower out! 

Thanks folks ✌ 

@Budwizee there are some exciting strains bro, nice to pop something I haven't grown yet too!

Totemic[/member], thanks bro. Cheese, Kandy Kush, OG Kush, Budah Sister, Chocolope X NL and the AK48 X BD/DP. Your Chocolope X NL will be the first bean that sees an entire SANlight veg, the rest all had nearly two weeks under cfl. I have a feeling she (I hope its a she) will catch up very quickly! 

Toby[/member], they from out of this world bro!! I'll never buy another light, even if it means saving and waiting longer! 

The veg side of the box is 1100mm wide x 650mm deep and a height of 1400mm.

Got them hanging lengthwise at a height of 500mm with a +- 150mm gap between sides and lights. Light is crossing and overlapping everywhere, its hard to find a shadow. Even if I stick my hand in there there there next to no shadow over the plants! 

I started them at 400mm and was advised by SANlght to raise them to at least 500mm to avoid any shock from cfl to S2W. Growth did not stop or even stunt for a day! 

So so so impressed  

Then I am a peasant who believes in wasting nothing   I love my sugar leaf 

Noticed there is no "smoking" box to tick?

I smoke a lot of my sugar leaf, all of it lol! The larger trimmed leaves, hand leaves, stems and roots go to butter and tea. Also juice from time to time. 

I'll keep the thread updated every week and have a bit more of a look at each strain as we go along. 

Got a few cuttings and new beans started today but they'll only join us later.

I am soooo IMPRESSED with SANLight.  I haven't grown any of the other strains besides the Cheese, I know her well! I have never seen them looking this lush. 

Excited to see what the days and weeks ahead hold. Going to fill the tent up then do a flower run in the box under the S2W, was thinking of dong a SOG of cheese so I will be able to compare knowing the strain.

The BD/DP x AK48 is all experimental and I'm sure a learning curve. Made it past the first hurdle without pollinating my entire grow. Got a bunch of beans, now just hope they all healthy and strong:poke

They are coming on nicely and showing strong indica traits so far. Super fat leaves and a solid stem!

Chocolole x  NL is just a few days old, gave her one day under the cfl after she popped ( hope its a she ), then moved here in with the big girls. She's been in for two days now. Looking beautiful!

Okay I truly suck at maintaining a diary.. So going to start this thread covering my veg box and a recent add on to grow gear that has some what thrown me into orbit 

With the expectation of some amazing lights on the way, I got popping.

GHS Cheese 37 days ( I rate one of the best strains around, long time going), makes me happy!

Chocolope x NL 3days ( local breeder, excited)

Kandy Kush 19 days (first time)

OG Kush 19 days (excited first time)

Budahs Sister 19 days(first time)

HSO Blue Dream/Durban Poison x Ak48  (my first cross, excited).

Got two of each popped, cheese was three but two have moved onto flower already and the other lady will become a mother.

Germ straight into medium (coco/perlite & peat mix) not deeper than 1cm.

Pre wet medium, a good  spray with the spray bottle but not saturated. Under one 45W Daylight CFL.

Okay then beans popped.....bla...bla..bla..

I have had all under 2 x SANlight S2W since last week Wednesday 19/10/17.

I'm blown away by what these two units are doing to my veg!!! I can't wait to flower under them.

I've posted a pick of everyday since they have been under the S2W.

Some cutting came and went and some of the late comers eventually joined.

Everyone is doing well with very little issues. Budah's  Sister is keeping me on my toes tho, finding her a bit tricky with drinking but will get there.

Plan on vegging another two weeks or so, hope to see sex first but not serious will flip when the time comes.. 

Welcome Hein ✌

Cheese says she wants me to toke her through that bong

Ahoys DoubleR ✌ throw out the excess water give a good mist spray of water, the cutting and your container then close her up 

Rule of thumb that I use is humidity high till I see roots or cuttings start  sweating from leaves (good sign along with fading of the leaves) that roots ate close, only then do I starting leaving a gap for air. Till then she should be warm and snug 

That's at this stage. When you first take your cutting humidity should be almost 100% for the first few days so the leaves can drink. Cause there are no roots to do that at that part of the cuttings life.. As you go 4/5-7 days later your jiffy will slowly start losing some  of its moisture but not dry out. This along with root development will in courage roots to stretch and start searching for moisture.

Temps should be around 27'C/28'C and humidity 70%/80%.

Is the jiffy laying in a nutrient solution now?

That almost looks more like heat stress. What's the temp and humidity? Does she stay covered?

Depends on conditions.. Could take as long as 12 - 14 days. You be surprised what can happen  overnight. If she is still looking healthy and happy then just let her do her thing. It will come:-peace

Got seedlings in a mixture of super flora peat moss 1 part and coco/perlite(50%/50%)3 parts. Will transplant into final container after week one, that's why no backfill yet.

The Nursery  there is a bit of Green House there and some hoping to be ladies from two forum members.

Good beans brothers 100% germ, healthy and strong!!!

JustinHemp420[/member] will post one soon, will be my last post to hopefully bust that bong lol!!! 

Totemic[/member] I use the same guide with the peat pellet, the more root the better

I soak my pellets in a light feed, normally about a 1/4 strength first feed mixture for a good 20min (lukewarm water).

Then the hormone etc etc ..

 I font open my dome at all for the first 3 to 4 days unless I'm loosing humidity, then I'll spray once  a day.

100% I've never lost a clone and they hardly ever start cannibalising 8-12 days they touch medium.

Love cloning  

But everyone has there own way and many different technics are very affective..

If you got patients, a glass of ro water, rooting gel and a windowsill  will do the job with regular mists of spray.

Ahoys Narnia, ladies are still coming on well! 

What's the node structure looking like from the side? Notice any better growth further down as far as bud sites go? 

Ahoys bruv ✌

First and second same lady. 

Green House Cheese , she is now at Day 95 since she popped and day 63 at 12/12.

She has been fooked around a bit by me, had to shift stuff around for house inspection which was then delayed by another day.. But back on track and flushing out
