Burned up the lil' ones a few days back and brought down ppm. They're bouncin back in spite of my abuse...250MH conversion bulb,Active Aqua dual air pump, Advanced MGB and Aquashield.I know the need at least another week however, I don't know how tall I should let them get before I flip em to HPS. Anyone have a rule of thumb on it?
Thanks in advance

What are your temps like? They're looking good thus far. How much head space do you have? I expect mine to double (+) in size through out flower, so just be careful, because you dont want them to hit the light either. You may want to look into the Scrog method. Keep up the good work! Ss

I have a lil' tent thats got 5 ft in height. temps are 65 @ lights out 80 lights on average. humidity is between 20-65 . I switched from tap water to RO water ( from the machine @ 10 ppm for $1.25 per 5 gallon ) THIS made a big difference as it seems they're happier. I could use all the advice I can get!
Peace

Temps 65- 85. 710 ppm. I want to bump it up 100 ppm at next water change.When I put the tote together I drilled holes in the lid for LST with the twisty ties so thats helping. Need to manage my plant spacing better. Supper cropped a few branches. Advanced MGB + Botanicare Aquashield...will add some big bud at res change.
