i need to know how to make them bush out cos they just keep growing upwards and they look really stalky

Click to expand...

if they don't have enough light, they'll stretch and go straggly. do what darksys suggested dude.GET THEM LOTS OF LIGHT.

they'll take a few weeks to bush up bro. im afraid patience in abundance is what you'll need!! lmao. it's a quick growing plant but not that quick lol
oh and if U only take 1 thing on board, which i hope you won't lol, don't do what i did with my 1st grow and give em loads of nutes when they're seedlings. you'll just kill em...and none of us want that bro.
good luck

hey thanks heaps yea i going to go down to store tomo and pick up 2 of the lights he said and gest a wee bit of reflecting sheet to place around proble try get a wee fan to so i can start moveing the air around a little

can some one explain to me the main diffrences between hydros and aeros and wat is easyer for first timer like me ?

hydro use water, aeroponic feeds air directly to the roots, i think lol, for a first timer, i wud go with soil, soil is always the best
hydro is good for money making, huge ops, but soil is teh way too goo, tatse betterm, and wider margin fro errors, anyone disagree?

i like the sound of haveing a wider margin of error lol i just swaped plants round so ones that were in middle are on outerside now and ones that were on outside are on inside cos the ones in middle seem to grow straighter and faster cos they directly under light

not me!! i agree bro. mate of mine grows hydro and to be really really honest..i couldn't be fucked with all the fucking around lol. but im a bit of a lazy fuck so i went for soil. ph is less of a worry too. still a worry but not as much. i believe lol

yea well i dont got a ph reade so my ph levels could be through the roof for all i know i just hopeing not if i get those lights will reflective sheeting help or would it just be a waste
?

yea soil is the best , persoanlly, the weed tatses better


yea more light the better,

i jus got 2 plants one is female for sure, so i took cuttings, ther othe ri ahve no idea there 12 weeks old, grown outside in uk, there going under 600w hps very sooon

the weathers good here

i have decided that i am going to get a closet and put in side it custom metal shelfing createing 1 shelf to sit my planter on for my plants to sit in and underneath that im going to put a resivour on one side which is going to be hooked up 2 a dripper system and on the other side at the bottom im going to have my 1 gallon container with the home made co2 mix to release co2 slowly the whole closet will be lined with reflective sheeting and it will have 4 fluro lights connected to a pully system so it can be moved up and down as the plants grow at the top on one side i will have a fan pumping air in and on the other side i will have one going out same .thing at the bottom and possibley the middle . and a temp gauage screwed into it as well !! .....
please let me know wat u think of this set up and any possible changes that may help me please

all depends on how much money u want to spend bro HPS is the best
