Okay so I need to do an update since this thread is about my grow. It hit mid 80's today and when I got home The lights had only been on an hour or 2 and temps already were in the high 90's. We cut the A/C on so my room is going to become a freezer with the door shut so the temp problem is already dealt with. I figure the cold air being trapped in my room with the heat from the HPS should even everything out. I forgot to water the girls again last night. This better be the last time I forget or im going to have to slap myself. I got it figured to watering every 2 days. Now I need advice on something. Think I should make there next feeding half and half of the bio bizz feeding and the GH feeding to ween them over? Or the next to waterings etc?

I figured I would show you what I have just to make sure I like my water conditions before I feed the girls. Its nice to have this because: 1: Bleach in the water 2: Flouride in it 3: Ammonia 4: Nitrites 5: Nitrates 6: PH 7: Dissolved Oxygen 8: Calcium 9: KH 10: dKH....The list goes on and on...Anyway if you have city water you NEED to worry about the first 3 and number 6 at the minimum. Thats why just my plant arsenal has so many test kits (Front row is low range PH Ammonia Nitrite and Nitrate. I also have high range PH) The bleach kills the bacteria In the filtration process witch causes die off witch rots and becomes ammonia. Thats why I ONLY use Distilled or RO/DI water in my tanks. My tap is 8.2 PH and 1.5 PPM of ammonia. If my tank has ANY ammonia I know it isnt cycled and not ready for fish. But! That cycle (Ammonia - Nitrite (Lethal) - Nitrate is what feeds plants...Especially aquatic plants. They use it for photosynthisis. Anyway I need to stop babbling...Heres the damn picture...

I know man I hate people like that. I had an idea awhile back about using the box my 55 gallon tank came in to grow and these 2 assholes kept saying I was talking shit and was stupid because I told them I was going to start 4 plants because I would probably end up with at least 2 males and probably kill at least 1 of the females. Fucking morons need to calm down.
