im on my fourth week of flowering of 11 super nice afghani bombay kush plants. My last grow of the same strain didn't yield too much but was extremely potent. I'm hoping to beef these puppies up a little bit but since I haven't been using Super Tea or Budswell or anything since the beginning im in a bit of time strain to get them some good shit quick. I have been told I may want to go with Vanderswan Shooting Powder since the cycle is on the second half. No hairs have turned orange or amber yet so I'm thinking I have a little window of time.

Anyone used any of these products? It says to use Budswell up until week 6, and i think SuperTea is week 1-4 of flower or something according to the schedule. Maybe there's some other recommendations on products that could help as well?

Thanks,

what kind of light are you using and how far away are the plants? Mollasses works to help aid in bud production but having the wrong light and too far away hurts it more then anything. Like See more buds says "The closer the light, the bigger the buds" Its all about the Lumens baby yeah!

i am running a 400w HPS and a 1000w HPS. the 400w i swap out with a metal halide for vegging. the area of the room is pretty big and the plants can definately be spaced out as much space as needed. i am only growing 11 this time, i grew 24 last time with plenty of space to spare. just wanna get as much growth out of them as possible.

Just like we all do brother. For HPS its recommended NOT to have your light higher then 12'' from the top of your plants. Just have a fan in between the top of the plants and the light. That'll push away the radiant heat off em. Split the plants into groups try to get em close as possible, then try to get the light 12'' or closer (my 400w HPS is about 7'' from the top of my plants. Mollasses is good as suggested, or check out some Advanced Nutrient products they have a great selection and can get all of them off ebay (most have free shipping, and usually 3 day shipping at that!)

yea all my soil nutes are advanced nutrients. anyway I got some molasses to mix in but upon investigation i decided to purchase a product called MOAB (Mother Of All Blooms) i think it's a Northern California product cuz it's hard to find somewhere to buy it but have a friend who swears by it so will let ya know how that goes once it arrives.

normally i'd hit up the local hydro shops but been hearing stories of cops waiting/following people home from them so online shopping it is.

cops cant do that lmao and if they can thats not proof of anything and cant lead them to suspicion. In court what would they say "I saw them leave a hydroponic gardening store and followed them to their house thats my proof they grow weed" lol na thats call harrassment bro. Wish they followed me home and tried to bust me they get a big fat lawsuit cause my grow isn't at my house :weed:


Edit: and why follow you home when they can just get your tag# ;P

Bc they know people grow in places other than their house =). I guess the best bet would be to drive home... then drive to the place...

I dunno though... cops following people? I'm guessing they only do that if they work with the people inside... if some kid came in with a grin on his face... hinting on weed growing... he could tell the cop whats up... no clue though:confused:

Yeah I can see that, just that conversation actually came up with my sister and I (about cops following you home) shes a paralegal and at least in my area cops cant do that maybe the laws differ idk but believe it or not, quite a lot of people are growing at home hydroponically the legal stuff people grow lol. Why grow veggies and stuff outside when you can do it in your house! All n all I wouldn't worry about em following ya home but we all take our precautions and they all differ depending on the person. Peace of mind is great to have especially when it involves this kinda stuff :weed:

i havent had any follow me home, but the community im in is very small. im sure they dont have much else to do. luckily i dont grow at my home so i guess if they did follow me they wouldnt find anything, could just be people talking or being overly paranoid but I'd rather just avoid any suspicion.
