    good luck or a bit suspicious

    I guess it would also be a plus that you can make your own seeds from that point on. Just have to make the initial investment and keep the very best male to dust your best girls with :P

    Week 4 CFL Grow

    Meh, I've seen a few journals and grows with side by side results pitting LEDS/CFLS against HPS and HIDs. The LEDs and CFLs do fine, just require a little more work. Just different strokes... @ nrt - Hey man, you're girls looking good :) keep it up! You mixing anything else up with your Tiger...

    Fox Farm Soil Question.

    Hey bud, im about at the same point as you are experience-wise. Id suggest just buying a bag of Fox Farms Ocean Forest. Also, buy the Fox Farms nutrients Big Bloom, Grow Big, and Tiger Bloom. Once you have all that, heres a good way to start. Get a solo cup and fill it with the FFOF soil. Put...

    Yea, ive seen good things from Air Pots. The ones I saw come apart, so they are easy to transfer plants from and reusable. Just havent made the trip to buy any yet.

    Is it time to flower?

    Irregularities in your light schedule could cause your girls to hermie :( if you dont think your sitter will be able to provide the 12/12 id probably move it into the shed just to be sure!

    Im not sure to be honest ;-) hopefully some other members can chime in on miracle grow stuff. Other than your soil and nutrients... you need the following. One 3 or 5 gallon pot per plant. lights. Check the cfl forum I linked. a fan. Oscillating one if possible. Constant direct fanning will...

    help with scrog

    I think im going to try a Scrog this next time instead of using string and trying my plant to my pot xD Makes it tough to get in there with all those loops of string around my container!

    help my plant veg phase

    Like I said bro, I wouldnt worry about 'how many weeks', I would worry about the size of your plant. Just grow them until they fill up half your grow space. Once you get to that point, turn your lights on for 12 hours and off for 12 hours every day. Thats the 12/12 schedule that makes our plants...

    Wal-4Mart probably does not have Fox Farms, but hydro stores do. So does the internets :) As for lights, regular florescent lights probably wont do too well later on. People mainly use them just to start seedlings, or keep clones alive from what I can tell. Can you buy Compact Florescent Bulbs...

    help my plant veg phase

    Hes just being funny ;) You do need nutes. If you dont feed your plant, eventually it will eat everything up thats in the soil and not have what it needs to keep going. I dont have any experience outside Fox Farms, so I suggest Fox Farms - they have worked well for me so far. You can get away...

    Well, that depends on the area you'll be growing in. How big of an area are you going to use? What size and type of light do you have? You wont need nutrients for a while. Im still afraid of burning my plants, so I do not add nutrients until my girl has about four 'nodes' or sets of leaves...

    Looks fine, but the soil is really wet :P leave her be for a few days, let the dirt dry up a bit. I usually water my solo cups when I can stick a finger in the dirt and have it come back mostly dry. or only *very slightly* moist.

    thinking of switching to LED... any recommendations? ?

    You will definitley see a drop in temp when you swap from HPS to LED lighting. That being said, you do have to train your plant more to get the yields you see from other lights. Light penetration is an issue with LED, but as long as you LST your plants or use another similar type of setup where...
