Yea RME....put some damn flower pics up already...haha.... I had a question but forgot it...(tested one of my girls that is a week out SUPER STONEY) yea cheifs were looking DAMN good, those mother fuckers got some wheels on em cus nobody was catchin them...I had to read the make it rain thread just for a brush up...O i recall now.. Since you say when you make it rain, it puts the plants to sleep and then when they wake up they are in Turbo wick mode....Do you water in the morining ( before lights go on) and let them wake up to the light going on??? Holler back homie...Sub'd and +rep cus i RE-read all your shit its so damn helpful...TO ALL NOOBS...EASY ON THE NUTES
I make it rain about an hour after the lights come on

RME do you use your let it rain technique on seedlings as well? I am trying it right now I live in a very hot climate where we have evap. coolers that suck and my temps get up to 87 sometimes... I have the skill but I need some luck getting these seeds germinated....

well I have only done it once, and it was the initial watering from putting the seed from paper towel in soil.. I used a small pot so it's not like I hit it with a gallon I actually measured to 3.5 tablespoons per watering and then just flusehed it with 10.5 tbs for first watering, I can just take my humidome off completely and it will dry up quick.. I am having some really frustratimg germination problems with the temp changes. help me master... I am trying to do big bang right now I want to SOG her sooooo bad!!

I have always germinated seeds just 1 way and never had any problem. I don't use the paper towel method or any of the other methods normally used. I only germinate in most soil by poking a hole about 3/8'' deep drop in the seed and spit on it. I then cover the hole. I am not saying this will work for everyone but it has always worked for me.

begining of this thread I explained how I do seedlings, talked about the importance of the temp and humidity not sure how to help because not sure of the description of your problem? is it that the seeds are not sprouting from the soil? in what and how did you plant em?

my problem is temperature changes from living in the dessert where we have 90 degree days and 63 degree nights, and all I have is a swamp cooler that kind of leaves bare to the outdoor temperatures. I definitely read your thread and I tried your method, but with coco coir tablets, I waited for my seeds to drop, and put them in the coco coir just like you like to go straight from shot glass in to you medium so did I. but I personally think that the is little mass to each pellet it gave much more shock to the seedlings. I went through a white rhino and a super lemon skunk. Out of frustration I went back to what I already was used too... I soak paper towels for a few hours, and then drain them out and then get them wet again, and fold them up in a sandwhich bag and then put my seeds in the bag ontop of the towel.. I then wait for it to sprout a 1/4 inch root then put it in soil.... I went real simple for germination but Im def going to do Super Soil for when I transpant. Right now i hav Uni-Grow organic balanced ph soil, and I personally think I am having luck,,, I reallyu think I messed up with your method cause I had a fan blowing in may veg cab, and it cooled the rootball down por something, whatever I failed. Next time I will you method but with the pellets in a pot... But I did make it rain on my seedling, and I really am seeing a difference, in just one day it poked though 3/8 of soil, and I can even see the tap root straight and strong pushing though: ) to early to tell but I'm hoping... I was talking to illumination about how raining so early could be like winter run-off soaking the ground and thus jumpstarting the seeds to sprout... ? just a athought?> thanks rme

Say ...I see that you are using Jacks Professional instead of Classic....I can see why...From what I have learned, a 2-1-3 is a good flower ratio....however I saw they had a 15-5-15 Ca/Mg which isn't bad but it also has mag and cal...and ALL the Micro and macro nutes...Also their 17-5-19 poinsetta feed seems to fit the bill...I was wondering what the Jacks Pro feed costs? and did you have to order it or does a store carry it near you? Hope these aren't dumb questions. Holler

hell this is the second time, someone else had a similar problem a few weeks ago a bunch of us told him to stake it down, you could look back thru the threads for it
