also see how close you can put your hands to the cfl till it get uncomfortable when you hold it for a few min. not the bottom of your hand but the top where its more sensitive. if its 3 inches then dont let you plants get closer than 3.5 inches ect. the 23/26 and higher cfl put off allot more heat than a 13 watt.

what is your water and feeding schedule? do you do a flush every 3 weeks?

I don't add any nutes so there isn't any need to flush

Lol. What is funny about your post is that I just gave someone advice on how to check if temps are too hot for your plants and mentioned the back of your hand technique to him and now I'm reading this post Rep (If I can)

On average between 17°C and 21°C. But that plant is long gone (Bastard).... dried out the leaves and burnt some of them just to find out the smell and they smell a bit like dank but not too noticeable. I can't be asked to try them as an alternative to tobacco.

When it comes to humidity I just spray them before the lights go off and when the turn on.... Fuck I broke my timer so I'm having to do shit manually but should be sorted before the flip to 12/12

Note: My next update will be in 2 weeks, I know it's long from now but I can't be asked to keep putting up pics but I will update again in 2 weeks to keep this thread alive.

I supercropped today and will be flowering in 4 days or something like that, the Topping has made two new tops grow along with another two a node below the new tops.

I have them on 308w actual cfl wattage (x2 125w cfls 5500k, x1 28w 2700k cgl and 30w 2700k cfl)

nice ill be flowering 4 plants next week also. Monday i fim them. Friday-Sunday ill switch on my ufo with my other led's and go 14/10 for 2 weeks then 12/12 till last week of flower. then its 10/14 last week. then when they are done lights off for 24-48 hrs. the lights off will boost thc. if you harvest when the lights are on the thc is lower in your plant. its proven that 24-48hrs dark will increase thc . how much is based on the strain.

Some good advice here, I will try it out on my grow and see how it goes.

well since i got the new ph meter and ive adjusted ph im gonna veg longer let the ph shock wear off. then ill fim and go from their so im at a stand still right now. but 1 of my plants doesnt give a shit i call her big bertha gotta clone her for sure she jsut fing grows i think its my 3000k led light her leaves and stems are big and full with good node spacing had to raise lights to make her stretch, she is blueberry and if you dont stretch them you will be in trouble getting light into her.

Yeah, best to stretch so they can get more light on the lower growth which equals more buds

only for dense bushy strains. im learning this strain. the stems are hard i mean hard. so any training ahs to be done win real tiny start laying her down so will have to side plant when im gonna do training with her there is no LST when the wood affect sets in. this strain might just be a fim/top plant.

 

[ilyaas123]

The LST technique is fucking amazing! Lets hope it;s a female as I should have at least 9 tops

okay looks like my plants should all be okay. got my ph issue under control now. im gonna loose bottom nodes on a few plants but it happens, new life is already growing in on them so who cares let them fall off. my big plant i swear grows no matter what she doesnt give a shit. im gonna top her for sure i want a clone her dna is strong. she was growing with the soil ph at 3.8 really 3.8 and the water was coming out was 4.0 lmao. it stunted most of the other plants big time. when i did an emergency ph adjust back to 6.2 in soil it shocked all of them except the big one. im gonna transplant 2 of them in 2 days to 2 gallon pots and keep air injection going.if anyone needs a good cheap ph tester the 009A1 for $13 on ebay is great or spend the money and buy a really nice one.

I don't actually bother with the pH, I just leave boiled water to sit for 24 hours and then use it and that's my job done - I'm taking some cuttings and trading them in for legit plants

Oh and the *bastard* that flopped is still alive but on the day I posted the pics I removed all the bad leaves and left the new growth on and since then have had the plant in water along with the roots being cut off (90% of them) and I'm just waiting for it to show sex so I know if I missed out on a female - Not under artificial light as there is no point; I've just put them next to a window receiving 2-4 hours of direct sunlight per day but I really don't care.

 

[Wait, what?]

i got my seeds form Mjseedscanada took a week they sent 2 extra but 2 was broke lol i dont like the way they ship them but they all germinated and grow bushy as hell. since ive smoked bc blueberry that is where i wanted the seeds from.

 

[Wait, what?]

I'll check them out. Thanks

 

[DCobeen]

I'll check them out. Thanks

i do recommend running a couple with mainlining,lst if you can. im gonna hcange my pot style for next grows with them so i can mainline them. they are extremely bushy. indie my pic on every node against the stem is 2 new growths
