    Ztelthys 100W HPS TV Cabinet Conversion (Pimped Out !!!)

    Starting to really come together mate! sorry I lost this thread, got carried away helping someone out and pushed this to the bottom :) Anyway keep it up! I've just ordered a 270w LED to replace my 250w HPS, and I'll be using it alongside the 90w UFO and 45w Fluoro tube lol, also downgraded my...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    do you have a ppm reader? lol ppm isn't too important with soil (so far I'm finding it doesn't matter with hydro either but that's my luck). PH however should be around 5.6-7.2 it's quite a broad range for healthy plants, the ideal scenario would have it starting at 5.6 or 7.2 and fluctuating up...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    I've seen it used and the results can be quite good, so long as you stick to the guidelines, don't do it more than twice and a week or so in between, depending on strain it might add extra bud or it might herm them, depends how sensitive your plant is :) Though 1st grow I wouldn't do it, just...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    Looks good! 'sup to you if you want to wait a bit longer but earlier is good for the first round lol, has it had a weeks recovery? if so it looks good to switch, put the screen in about a inch above the plant and train it into the screen as the flower stretch kicks in. :) My old grows used to be...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    You know you are legally allowed to own seeds as a 'collector' there is no law saying you can't have seeds... if the government kept tabs on everyone who ordered seeds off the internet... well they'd have a LOT of work to do, and do you think they can afford that for a plant that's gradually...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    lol no worries, it's not particularly knowing best, just a kind of safety protocol lol at least this way you'll see how much it stretches in flower so you know roughly how much longer to leave it next time, it's better to do it that way round than wait too long and end up with too much growth...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    I wouldn't veg much more, literally give them their week recovery and flower out! The tops will bounce back literally within 2-3 days and grow pretty quick, you've got to remember that they will double to triple their size with the flowering stretch, and from the looks of it you should get your...

    Multi Strain 250w HPS Parabolic mini ScrOG

    I don't know about 5oz this time, I've just been informed that the boiler guy is booked to come on the 10th of October and it absolutely stinks during day time hours so out of paranoia and the risk of getting caught again I am going to have to chop a week or 2 early (better safe than sorry imo)...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    I could run strings from the screen to the stems and kinda pull and tie them but the stems get very fragile and stiff during flower, so everything has to be done really carefully, I've snapped about 12 stems off of the runt (left plant) just from tucking under the screen. At the moment I don't...

    haha cheers! I've even messed this grow up a tad but only 'cause it's my first venture into proper hydroponics, not just passive hydro :) Just stuck a quick update in my thread if your interested, you can see where the canopy has just gone crazy and slightly messed up lol XD Stay Frosty!

    Multi Strain 250w HPS Parabolic mini ScrOG

    Well 3 actual weeks (not just a guess XD) into flower and my canopy has properly shot up... I really underestimated both the growth potential of DWC and how much stretch this strain does in the 1st few weeks, luckily they have started to crown off just under the lights (within an inch or so...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    lol thanks :) though I put it down to a lot of reading, luck and practice XD or a green finger or 10 lol, I have messed up a few grows and learned from it, to succeed you have to first fail.. or something to that effect.. I still have a lot to learn as well! Best advice anyone can give is to...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    Read the back of the bottle :) it'll tell you dosage! then half it for the 1st week or so then do 3/4 for another week or so then full strength. With already nuted soil just take it easy with the additions! and yeah CFL is a lot better for the space XD I've had other grows using CFLs and had...

    Multi Strain 250w HPS Parabolic mini ScrOG

    Thanks for stopping in guys! I have read a lot of good things about blue dream! I have a few more grows worth of seeds to get through first, Critical Jack Herer, Pineapple Express and 3 Berry Bombs left lol. Also I underestimated the growth potential of DWC a bit and they have stretched a LOT...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    yeah still top in the same place! no pics or anything but my grow is going well, some of my main stems have stretched a lot since flowering and I ran out of room to tuck them down, I underestimated the growth potential of DWC lol, but I'm on I think week 3 of flower!

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    Well if you keep tucking under during the flowering 'stretch' phase then you only need about 6 inches or so the buds shouldn't grow too tall above the screen but it's all strain dependent.
