    selfmedicator462's first grow!

    potted up today to 3 gallon air pots. Hit em with 590ppm nutes and upped my ballast to 100%. Packing the dirt around the solo cups worked perfect! All i had to do was drop the plant into the hole....perfect fit. Packed it a little bit and fed. They were getting pretty root bound. Probably...

    selfmedicator462's first grow!

    Got my pots ready to go. "pre drilled" them. Had to soak the shit out of them before i had any runoff......except the air holes! water loves running out those. Took some pics again. I can see a difference from the ones i took last night in the previous post and now. Getting some spots on the...

    how are these looking?

    the pics in the previous post are from last night at 8pm. These are from 9am. I can see a difference. Got some spots on the leaves that were yellow on my Blue Cheese. Must still need more ppm. Think when i pot up ill go to 550ppm. I got my air pots ready to go. Pre drilled even! Just drop in...

    Wireless ip cameras

    I actually have to hardwire. I bought a dlink cam and i know its not top of the line but by the time i get it into the basement it doesnt get a very good signal. Ill have to run about 75' of cable to my grow.

    selfmedicator462's first grow!

    I found some new info on Veg+bloom. They say anywhere from 200-600ppm Veg and 600-800ppm for flower and 1000-1500ppm after the 3rd week of flower. I just got done ordering a RO set up. Going to use a float valve and make a 5 gallon tank that feeds into a 5 gallon res for pre mixed nutes. So when...

    I'm in my big room now so it's got a big filter. I'll be able to run the clone cabinet without I guess. Is 450 ppm goin to be enough on the next feed or should I bring it up more?

    selfmedicator462's first grow!

    with the fan on low and the light on 75% the temp was 77 degrees this morning. Outside temp was 74. So not bad. Ill be able to speed up my fan when I switch to HPS and crank the ballast up. the BC was still a bit yellow but they arent dry enough to feed again. Think im going to repot mid week.

    selfmedicator462's first grow!

    Moved them into the grow room. Dropped the light down. Got it running 75%. Fan is running 50%. Wonder what the temps will be like in that space. Gonna check it this afternoon and see if i need to speed up the fan. Trimmed the dead leaves off the BC and increased my ppm of my nutes to 460. Wont...

    how are these looking?

    bumped my nutes up to 350ppm yesterday. They seem to have handled it ok. Should I continue to increase nutes on the next water job? I read somewhere that they should be able to handle 500-600ppm at this stage. I think the bottom leaves on the Blue Cheese are done......should they be trimmed...

    selfmedicator462's first grow!

    I just fed for the second time. I bumped the ppm up to 350 this time. I think the damage is done to the BC's bottom 2 leafs. Should I trim them? They seem to have handled the nutes ok. I fed em yesterday morning. Should I keep increasing my nutes each time? I read somewhere that seedlings can...

    Fan blowing above or on seedlings?

    oh ok. I started the fan on mine after they got a few sets of leaves on them.

    Fan blowing above or on seedlings?

    I thought the idea was to make them "dance" to strengthen the stems? Did i receive more bad info?

    selfmedicator462's first grow!

    Yeah the only reason im running two strains right now is the other 3 BC seedlings died. Tried the filters today...........no go. that PC fan will not pull ANY air through them. Might have to just stick with some air freshener till i get them moved into the larger grow room. might invest in an...

    DIY seeding/cloning cabinet

    scrap the filters........4" pc fan will NOT pull air through them. might have to live without it and just use air fresheners in the room cause I dont want to change fan size. This one is about perfect for this little cabinet.

    how are these looking?

    They did ok on the mild nutes. They are already coming out of their funk. Lesson learned............dont believe everything you read! Next grow ill be feeding as soon as I have a few sets of leaves.
