Hey did you know that there is a 24 hour light/pump timer... if you set it on strawberries and hold the Select button for 5 seconds it will start to blink and the light will move to the germination stage...
And the Supergrow option also has a thing where you can simply turn off the lights and it will come back on in 12 hours.. and supposvly go back off.. ill test it tonight to make sure but i read it in the little manuel thing lol...:joint:

Yeah Ryan, I'd love to hear if there was some sort of built in 20/20 routine. I want to do as little hacking as possible. Keep it simple and all.

So, I'd love some advice. I don't want my plants to get too big, I just want a humble harvest. From the photo I attached, do you all think I can flower soon? Will the plants jump in size during flowering? I heard the roots increase alot. I want to try sexing soon, so I can pull one or two of them to make room.

What do you guys think of my little ladies? :hump:

they look nice...they will double or triple in size during the flower stage...the holes are small and if you wait too much longer the stems will get too big for the holes...:peace:

Yikes, so you think it's about time to move on to the next stage Spit? Anyone kind enough to help walk me through it? Like, I just change the light cycle, that's all? I'm just using AG nutes at the moment. MUST I get new nutes? If so, I can't really get any specific brands (foxfarm, etc) so do I want nutes for flowers (like roses and shit?) or nutes for fruits (like apples and shit?).
Anyways, it's time for phase 3! Someone wanna give me the idiots guide? :)

those plants will end up about 6' tall when the flowering is complete, i would knock it down to the 2 or 3 shortest and bushiest. you want small plants with large colas, not stretched plants with little puffs, next time keep the lights as low as possible!!!

the first time I used the AG, I used the AG nutes and they were ok. The next time I tried the General Hydroponics nutes and they were a lot better. I have seen some organic nutes at walmart they might be ok. When you switch to flower they get a lot bigger, I would not wait much longer.....:peace:

Yeah, I'm in sort of special circumstances. Somewhere I cannot buy anything to smoke because of major legal dangers, I was lucky to get some seeds from a friend. Also, I'm in a non-English speaking country, I don't want to get into it, but I can't just walk into Wal-Mart or anything. I did try to keep the lights as low as possible, even when the tallest plants leaves were burning slightly, you can see string in my photo from tying it down.

But thanks for your guys' advice. Flower time, huh? Maybe I should trim a bit too. Hey Ryan, so what's the deal with that 12/12 light cycle with the strawberry setting?

So I have some pretty difficult circumstances around me (which is why I'm glad for this forum...) Which is why I would like more general details about nutes. Not just brand names, but what they are specifically. Like nutes for flowring plants, and nutes for fruiting plants or whatever. Maybe I can buy something similar enough...

hey im not sure if it's only the AG Pro... but if you put the setting on strawberries and hold the "Select Button for 5 secs it will start to blink and the light will switch to Germination and will stay on for 24 hours of light/pump session... for the 12/12 it's the same thing... except you turn the lights off by pressing Lights and it will automatically pop back on in 12 hours :) good luck man.:joint:

Thanks man, I just tried that strawberry setting right now. Maybe it's working? The pumps started up, and hopefully it'll keep my usual time for light activation. I'm totally jealous of your seed stash man. :) I'm gonna go and maybe do a little trimming, or at least tie my plants so that they keep low for a while longer. Might pull one of them soon though I'm thinkin'...
Someone recommended I pull the biggest ones (not what I expected to hear) and they told me that mine grew spindly because I didn't have enough lights. Live and learn, and then get more bud. :P

Amen... it's not that you need more lights, maybe goto home-depot and get a few yards of Milar it's like super reflective stuff man... Kinda wrap it around the sides so you can only see it from the front angle so that the lights get more of the side and underbelly of the plants... as you may notice i never sleep lol.. Gah it sucks.. my grow lights keep me awake at night :'(:hump:
