and is 10-52-10 a decent flowering nute?!?

i couldnt find any with a 0 start NPK...lol

Flowering plants like very high P level foods, such as 5-50-17, but 10-20-10 should be adequate. Nutrients should be provided with each watering when first flowering.
Trace elements are necessary too; try to find foods that include these, so you don’t have to use a separate trace element food too. Home improvement centers sell trace element solutions rich in iron for lawn deficiencies, and these can be adapted for use in cultivating the herb. Prices for these mass produced fertilizers are significantly cheaper than the specialized hydroponic fertilizers sold in indoor gardening shops, and seem to work just fine.
HYDROPONIC FLOWERING SOLUTION, per gallon:
1 tsp. high P plant food, such as 15-30-15, or 5-50-17, etc.
½ tsp. epsom salts
1 tsp. Oxygen Plus Plant Food (Optional)
1 tsp. Trace Element food

I cannot stress enough that during the FLOWERING PHASE, the dark period should not be violated by normal light. It delays flower development due to hormones in the plant that react to light. If you must work on the plants during this time, allow only as much light as a VERY pale moon can provide for less than 5 minutes. Keep pruning to a minimum during the entire FLOWERING PHASE.

This is the bulb I use to work during the night and if you look it up the green spectrum will not effect any sleep time for the lovely ladies. This is the EXACT same 1 I have and have seen many people use before.

thanks man, is that hydro solution the same for soil? lol
From what I have seen and done about 90% of hydro nutes work with soil but you should thoroughly flush your soil before using any nutes or trace elements(calmag).

Red and blue put off the most light but will not work as it filters too much of the "usable" light and makes it inefficient.
The reason for spectrums is the plants absorb the light differently and will react to the colors more than white or straight color. If you go back a few pages you will see the graph I posted or you can google an image of "kelvin chlorophyll chart" and it will come up

Sorry, but it sounds so weird to have a green light in their with a green plant... I love green and all but sounds so weird, can't picture what it looks like :wall: too stoned.

Is it actually green light produced and isn't enhanced by a green plastic is it?

How old were you joker first time you grew, and how many plants or pounds have you produced, I bow to you.

Not sure when I started growing but I started smoking on my 6th birth day and the most I have ever grown at a time was 4 plants and got 6oz dried I think. I have many grows under my belt though. I grew for 5 years +/- (probably + lol) I am far from an expert but spend a lot of time learning as much as I can :D I help who and how I can.

True Modern Day hero.

What got you started and or thought why not grow? I love peoples histories with stuff, Think its awesome.

I'm excited to get the seeds. If you want to give a different place a try try and hit up where I got ours from. The seeds price slash wont be for much longer and why not. The plants they make looks amazing.

Can't wait to come over S7even and see them again, then add the other light when i get the slitter?

:eyesmoke:

Haha well I won't go too deep into details but I will say a few things. What got me started growing was I loved gardening and a friend of mine gave me a decent bag of bud that he didn't want so I smoked it and found 3 seeds so I popped em in and started growing (after a couple weeks of research) I started by using a 2 liter bottle and grew them in my closet. I started them in the red dixie cups in my homework desk haha if that helps to an age :D My brother smoked my out for my birth day. That's a little more than I feel comfortable releasing but I'll be legal soon so no worries lol

Dude, that's awesome. You can edit if you feel too much was said, but i think that's *Thumbs up* awesome.
I want to get into gardening and learning into what actually does what for a plant. How can a little seed get so big so fast and mature at sucha rapid rate. maybe go from there.

I wanna get my grow license for not myself but my mom. She needs it for her back. 3 Herniated disks in her spine and the odd toke really helps her deal with the whole thing. Just dont want her to buy it and get from a bad person. Or get a bad batch or something... I wanna grow it for her and with her help as a gift :D

Im off to bed. Take care all -

I smoke for my insomnia and chronic back pain. My mother will be getting her license also for her medical conditions (too many to list) but we will be covered for our grow.

Dam man I'm sorry bout the luck but I believe that's a male... Give it a couple more days, maybe a week and if it hasn't sprouted hairs then I'd say chop it.

ok we got the second splitter set up in there finally 4 cfl's all nice and shiny new :bigjoint:
we just changed the timer for 12 and 12 for shits and giggles because were gonna be receiving or seeds in a couple of days and we want to grow that and not this stressed out plant, even tho it's finally looking good and healthy I just dont want to waste time on being able to grow these seeds that will grow way faster!
anyways were gonna see what she dose now that were just kinda forcing the flowering to happen.
