Sooooo.... Dan could have been a really nice smoke if I would have let it finish out:wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall::wall:

Buuuuutttttt........

Dan has some growth coming back, it's small... but it's starting to sprout little leaves at the bottom.

I clipped all the dry,nut burned and neglected tips of the leaves off, just to make it look better and not so sorry and tired.

im doing a re-veg right now, its werking out well other than the time its taking to build some growth again, but shes growing more arms tho thats for sure. im about a month into the re-veg now, doing it under 24-0 light schedule and a good 18-10-15 N-P-K ratio, werking out very well.

as for CFL's...NEVER enough of them until its just all around too hott.

im pretty sure that mirrors absorb the light or some shit. im no expect by any means but i dont think mirror are good. dont quote me though i could be wrong
i think u mean expert, but your right on point tho! the light mirrors reflect are (not noticed to a naked eye, but a plant DOES know) a green light. not affecting or helping the plant in any way....no bieno.

Cool Deal !!! Thanks for the input .. I always wondered about mirrors. As for the Re-veg... I'm not Veggin right now... everything is in the same box 12/12 light cycle..... You guys think I should Veg for a while? All I have are seedlings... they could easily go on 24-0 and Dan ... well, he (she) is just sitting there with his two little new leaf sprouts... one of which shot a pistol yesterday.. a very small pistol...lol I could afford to Veg for a while .... I haven't done a veg cycle yet (as a grower in general)

Fuzzy +rep on the mirrors and hittin my journal back again ! Thanks guys !

Ok,

So I chopped Dan all the way..... my first grow was kinda a flop... in the sense I was too impatient. So here we Grow again !!!!!

We have:
Guerimo
Celia
Cylus
Cesar
and Nancy

Everyone has been taken out of there party Cup and transplanted into there new home..... Celia stretched A LOT! I think it was a little early to LST... but what the hell.... it could turn out Male anyways .. and then chop chop chop!

Planted on the 10th They are 2 weeks old (17 days). I didn't Germ this time, I just planted the seeds and drenched them one good time..... it took a week for them to pop above the dirt... but I think the rooting takes hold a little better... but ehhh, I still like to Germ... .especially if i can get a verified strain.... I really like train wreck, and wish I could get a hold of some of those seeds..... with out ordering them on line. .... but ehhh, Don''t know anyone around here anymore that has any exotic.... Maybe one day I will grow the balls to order online.... it looks easy, and there are a ton of people who order online that post on RIU. One day guys !!! One day !!! I really like Train Wreck and Phatt Fruity .... the only "verified" strains I have had.

Well, I'm out for now... I will return with updates tho !

Happy growing my brothers in bud !!!:leaf::leaf::leaf::leaf::leaf::leaf:

I have found a few Fungus Gnats flying around my plants... I think the Bag o MG Dirt i had was carrying them.... I've almost used it all... and Will not be using MG products from now on. I've been reading all day on how to get rid of them, but everyone has a different way that never works for another person. Does any one have experience with these little bugs..... it makes sense now why Dan had these long scars on his underside (bent side ) of the stem. any proven methods of getting rid of these little fuckers will be greatly appreciated and rewarded with rep ...lol.

Hope everyone is doing good !!!!

So.......

I upgraded my lights tonight !!!!! I just got another set of 65 Watt 2700k CFLs. So I'm running a grand total of .................... 260 Watts @ 2700k .... hopefully I will see some results.

The pics are a little screwy for some reason, but in there there is a pic of a plant I topped @ the 2nd node (above the second under the third), and its looking good. I have planted a seed in place of Cesar ... it was a male..... had to chop... just waiting on the rest to show.

Hopefully I will see an improvement with the new lights... It was tight squeezing that extra hood in there... but it works.

There are a bunch of little party cup stretchy plants in the back. They are my wife's plants... I water them for her... they are stretchy as hell tho.

So... Waiting on the balls and vag's to show....


Hope everyone is doing well !

they are staying at 79.7 steady..... Gonna go home at lunch time and check on them. I can't close the box any more tho... have to leave it open and close the closet door to keep it dark in there. thats pretty much what I did halfway threw my last grow.. cause it was @ 90 - 94 ... then i realized If I close the return vent in my closet ... it knocks a few degrees off. but box is open (not really worried about light leaks) and it was steady for about 2 hrs last night before the lights cut out @ 79.7. I need to get some ventilation going on... and some reflective film and I will be set for a while.
