Yeah man, i've used the nutes for awhile now. They work fucking awesome. Just remember a little goes a long long way. Start at like 1/2 a tsp (2.5g) to every gallon. Start low and work your way up, because they can be quite strong. Also if you can get your hands on some ultimate thrive, supernatural's thrive, it works amazing along side with the gro and bloom terra. I find the overall health of my plants way way up. Good luck buds

Cheers man.

Ok, so im a first time grower currently have 4 dr atomic NL #5 seeds in 6" pots. planted on the 14th,, sprouted on the 16th,,, all were about even then all of a sudden one just took off and the others have remained about the same size for about a week or so. They are also starting to turn somewhat yellow and drooping almost.. i can post pics if itll help,,

currently growing them under a 250w hps, with a couple cfls sidelighting,, getting led soon i believe.

at first i thought it was overwatering so i stopped giving them water for a couple days and nothing changed so i have started to water them again and seeing very little change...

ANY IDEAS,, constructive criticism wanted.

alrighty so heres whatsup,, ive put the 3 strugglers under cfl lighting for now to see if they can get a bit stronger then ill pop em back under the hps,, if not they will be sent to the guillotine. im also thinking that with the one that has around 4 nodes i will start to LST tmro, by simply bending it over and holding it with a coat hanger, as i read in an lst tutorial on here-- hopefully thisll get more light to the main stem n get me some branching... what are some thoughts on this??

also, as you can see, the biggest one has 2 leaves that arent lookin too hot,, not exactly sure what the problem is, maybe lack of nutes, dried out, or some kinda burn from the light, should i leave them for now, trim them, or what?

as always, help and criticism is welcomed.

cheers.

id give em atleast 6-9 days under cfl before rushing to hps. MH are a good option and ther not as intense as hps. give it a try if u like but i think ul end up going down the same road. good luck pal. also check my sig ? :)
