How long to recover for a strong dose? Plants were in first week of flower 8 days ago.

If you'll refer to my 1st response, you will notice I've covered that already. And yes, considering the average rate of success for new growers, I think he's doing just fine. No disrespect.

Cheers back at ya! Congrats on your grow. Most people never get past the seedling stage. As seen in your pics, the plant has shown signs of stretching which indicates a need for more light. Your plant is searching for more intense light, that is why your plant is taller with more spacing between...

I think im gonna have me a 175w veg light. No sense in ruining a good thing. Thanx peoples.

ps: with a fan blowing over your cfl's, you can bring those bulbs within inches from your plant and treat that stretching. Your plant will become bushy. The nodes will begin to space about 1/2 to 1 inch providing a much larger harvest. The link below is 2 colas havrested with cfl at 1 inch...

Have you checked the pH of your water/nute solution? Another good idea if your growing in soil is to pH your runoff water. Ideally, cannabis flourishes at a range between 5.8 & 6.8, given the variety.

Maybe a higer or lower wattage? Im I asking for a fire?

Ps Ballast is built in and I've already wired the fixture. No external ballast for voltage regulation, hence my question. It's got a helluva Veg light in it now if nothing else.

Ok so, a friend gives me an "outside MV lamp" for my "yard". Its a 175w Mercury Vapor Lamp with built in ballast. My question is can I buy a 175w hps bulb and use my MV ballast to run it? Any input greatly apprieciated!

dude, your avatar is a gif my ex-girl friend made me. Wierd. im and let me know where u got it.

Just thought id say big up to all our new users. I have seen such a large increase in users recently. For example, for a long time there was 80 to 90 users during peak hours on RIU. As of late, there's 100 to 200 users viewing the general forum. I am a happy grower. Keep living and learning RIU...

Vegged for 3 months, 10 weeks flower.12 to 16 cfl's and a whole lotta love. 1st plant only produced a fat 1/4. Those didn't cure because im a junkie, im hoping to gain more patience as time passes. Thanx for the post fellows! 1st grow, so a little rough, but hey... practice makes perfect.

Well here's pics of my second harvest,first grow. Qp wet, hoping for a fat ounce. Mr. no patience, Smoked my first harvest before it even cured. Hopefully these buds will cure well. Comment's? 1st pic is main 2 colas. Rest is bud porn.
