have read some threads which reckon on just ph'd water until flower time but surely i'll need to give some grow before then?

If its biobizz allmix which you are using and big bang that you are growing <snap> id go with water only for the veg stage - having had some nute burn attempts in the past with that soil - you will still get good results.

Im looking at it just now as its hanging upside down and trying to count the nugs at an approximate weight - i reckon it will be about 2 oz total actually or at least i hope so (gotta hate that weight loss when its drying) - it was my 1st hps grow 250w in a small ikea cupboard 0.5mx0.8mx1.7m - gotta love the hps - what a difference compared to my previous grows - its only going to get better and better

Yea man, especially when you get loads of 'popcorn' buds, they shrink so much it makes me laugh.. :mrgreen:

What was your old method of growing?

whitewidow2 said:
your plants are looking good man... just the two? - what kinda light are you using?

Thanks man.. :joint:

It was originally supposed to be 5. (Green House Seed Co. - 5 Feminized Big Bang) but 2 didn't sprout and i recently had to chop 1 because it hermied on me... :neutral:

.. so we down to 2 now..its all for me anyway.. :eyesmoke:

I'm using a 400watt HPS.. :mrgreen:

I went for the BioBizz light mix so i could use the BioBizz grow through veg, i was going to try the all mix next grow, but i'm satisfied with what i'm getting so far so i'm not sure yet.. :mrgreen:

Yeah the BioBizz Allmix is already fertilised so just PH'd water for probably the first 4 weeks of growth..

:peace:

whitewidow2 · Dec 18, 2009

Yeah i didnt know the allmix already contained fertiliser <big newbie mistake> and wondered why my leaves were going brown and crispy lol

I was using 150w cfl red and blue spectrums <red for flowering blue for veg> - i still have my 150w blue spectrum that i use for veg and i now have two identical cupboards set side by side so that i can get a harvest every two month - after waiting 4 and a half months 1st CFL grow for about 1/4 to 1/2 oz of bud i realised i needed to do things a bit smarter lol

Currently waiting on a 350m3/hr HVK fan and rhino filter with a better intake fan 130m3/hr for better air flow in the flowering room and im gonna put the fans im currently using into the other room which just has ona to kill smell at the moment - lets just say i had to get several cans of air freshener and spray like crazy as those bitches stink lol

whitewidow2 · Dec 18, 2009

My next grow is 3 x lemon skunk (GHS) and 2 Big Bang just waiting to go when my new stuff comes... i "helped" the little seed casing off one of the sprouts and it took the head right off it - i didnt know if she was going to make it but i think it might survive - ill keep you updated - so learn from my mistakes!!! let it fall off itself coz you will only be pissed at yourself

i'm with ya on that one man, gotta get a few grows out the way and then might invest in a veg tent or just build one like i was going to.. but i do like matching things and two Grow tents next to each other would like :hump:

..

Its all personal but i smoke so damn much, i need to keep on top of things. :eyesmoke:

I grew a big bang a while ago big leaves in veg and smelled fruity kinda a bit like apples then went skunky in flowering, i gave mine 2 days in dark and saw a difference in the trichomes, nice relaxing chill smoke from this strain i kinda fucked up with my grow a tad tho but it still turned out good.

grow4joe · Dec 19, 2009

Last day of week 3 already! :mrgreen:

They are smelling real fruity now.. :weed:

Yea mine are smelling quite fruity at the minute.. waiting for those green apples :lol:

What happened to your grow?

:peace:

i like smokin · Dec 19, 2009

cheers m8, i ended up not buying a light for flowering due to lack of muny, and ended up using a 200w 6400k cfl and ended up burning it daft with nutrients, and looking back through the pics i took it was thirsty in veg it still kicked ass tho.
im buliding a cabinet to grow in this time, but still not sure what to grow i was looking at paradise seeds icecream and it looks nice.

ICECREAM - PARADISE SEEDS

Icecream looks real tasty man... I would go for it... :weed:

grow4joe · Dec 19, 2009

Quick question....
I filter my water anyway, so is it cool to collect snow and use this? (obviously i will warm it up and adjust PH as usual when i feed them.. :mrgreen:

)

grow4joe · Dec 20, 2009

OK, so the melting down of the snow for my plants idea was a waste of time... :lol:

I'm afraid of spiders and what just happened to come melting out of some ice....a dead one!! :mrgreen:

It took too long to melt and i couldn't be arsed to keep going outside for more and then back in ect, ect... :mrgreen:
