Wow.. Thanks for a great reply. This is my first HPS grow, and heat is the hardest thing to battle. Last grow was CFL + LED, and it was good for me. Cant wait to see how the heat battle is going to go. Today I started flowering and am running my lights at night so the temps stay lower.

The Super Lemon Haze is a great strain, but its not my favorite "Get High" strain. Its packed with flavor, though. This was some of my SLH from last grow, its not very dense but I only used like 300W and my electricity only went up a little. Netted 11oz dried/cured

I too run my lights only at night. I don't use an AC. So I depend totally on Mother Nature to stay cool at night. My electric bill runs around $345.00 a month. Though I know Oahu's rates are a lot cheaper, they can still creep up on you if you don't pay attention.

Cru31, with your SLH grow. How many weeks did you flower it? Right now I'm at 10 weeks and my SLH is dripping resin all over. My outdoor stuff is looking knarly too. Pics later

thanks Bobotrank. That pic was actually from several weeks ago. Wait until you see the latest pics. By Greenhouses ,SLH should take around 12 weeks. So I will take it two to three more weeks. I will keep a special eye on any of them that may need that last week to max out resin production. My outdoor late crop is starting to race to the finish line. The entire crop outdoors is either 'Lemon Skunk', or my 'Ultra- Cheese' I've had to wage a small war against 'Mealy Bugs', once again!"!?!?!? But harvest should be in two to 3 wks also. Damn, some of these plants smell like ,..Grapes!?!?

Ah yes, your patience will certainly pay off. I hope to put a little SLH in my garden one of these days, too. Everybody raves about this strain! peace.

Hey guys, long time. Just checking in. Looking good everyone keep it up and stay outta jail! Aloha
 
hey neone know if using apple cider vinegar as a ph down kills mycorrhizae? i used in on some month old clones and the started to get deficient in everything ever since then its been an up and down battle from underfeeding to overfeeding to nutrient lock. i stopped using apple cider vinegar in my teas and just let the ph go i mean i still check it for idk what reason and its usually 6.3 to 7.1 at the highest ive ever seen it. So i flushed the plants with plain water half tap half RO ph of that is usually no higher than 7.15 than i made a tea consisting of 1/4 strength super thrive, 1/4 tbsp/gallon mollasses and 1 tsp/ gallon humic acids 8% along with foxfarm happyfrog soil cause i cant afford mycorrhize right now but i jus strained it in the water then brewed and leached the tea through my pots. let sit for 3 days and theytunedall neon green with purple stems and the purple is almost dark with a slight red hue to it and it seems to climb up the stem with the top leaves a real light green and forming claws also the veins look more exxagerrated on the leaves or more "indentated" i guess is more like it also the one plants got a few fan leaves that are cupped and turned sidewaysat a 90 degree angle and has yellowing and falling leaves in a random order i grow in a coconut/soil mixture. idk but i feel like no matter what i try to do:just leave it alone, give extra light nutes, give normal strength nutes, flush and replenish with balanced ratios and myrobes, just chill and give plain water for a while, foliar feed instead, etcetcetc... ivetried every approach i can think of and it all seems to not be right. i feel like ther is something wrong with the ph but im really reluctant to use apple cider vinegar to lower it cause i think it kills microbes and i cant do that i worked in a hydro warehouse that made me sick cause i couldnt feel nething from those plants t all i could feel was greed and lack of respect for the planet and true life...neways ive narrowed it down to my ph meter being bad or something but when i use the reference 7.0 solution it reads perfect but that to me still doesnt mean ists working perfectly when dipped in another solution its just one of those red digital ph meters from Hanna Instruments and ive heard that they suck...neone else have one? problems? this indoor stuff is making me go looney for real back home we just use good compost and make sure pests are down and just pour water on the plants with the occasional fish and seaweed tea and its all good ne advice with all organic tean and soil/coco indoor growing temps are Veg: 400 watt MH and 4 bulb T% fixture 85day75night avg humidity:40% Flower:400 watt MH and 1000wattHPS 80day65-70night avg humudity25-35% oh yeah i had tinnie little microscopic crawlies in teh soil so i did a pyrethrum/rotenone flush at 1tsp/gal let sit overnight next day did the plain flush as described above and now this is where im at my nutes are teas but i use Age Old Grow, Fish and seaweed and Bloom in the teas all 1 tsp/gal and humic acids 1tsp/gal with 1 handfull earthworm castings per 2-5 gal also mollasses Blackstrap for flower Brer Rabbit for veg(lower in nutes than blackstrap)al 1 tbsp/gal or 1 tsp depending on how much other fertilizer i use like for small plants in 4" pots
 
thought that strain looked farmiliar i got some SLH it grows sooo fast over 8' in 2 and a half months i wont do white widow cause i seen it get problematic with mold and mildew in large hydrofarms so i know its prone to getting powdery mildew bad in flowering so pls jus make sure your on top of being clean id clean everything with hydrogen peroxide b4 i flower white widow then fnd a source for sulfur...organically i use AGE OLD's Root Rally w/mycorrhizae but it has 6% sulphur so i make a tea and put 1/4lb earthworm castings and 1 tsp Root Rally in the tea bag and 1tsp plain sugar in the water PH usually comes out to 6.5-6.8 using RO water then add like a tsp neem oil afte it is brewed and spray it on everything mostly the plants but somewhat on the environment b4 flowers appear on the white widow this mix has left me with no mildew or mold for months and sometimes i even forget and leave my RO water running and ive had huge spills but i just clean it with hydrogen peroxide then the mix i jus gave you and NEVER had mold or mildew EVER also make sure u got good exhaust fan or negative air pressure as well this keeps the mold spores at an optimum low level for reproducing and the ROOT RALLY is only like $5 29%hydrogen peroxide like $10 but get the 35% if u can i heard it was now illegal it lasts longer though i use 1tsp/quart dont mix it with nething though except water cause it will render the mix innefective and DONT put HP in soil or it kills everything ive seen ppl use it in soil b4 they planted nething in it and they NEVER had bug problems but it also kills microbes

Sup guys. Somehow got unsubscribed from this thread. Thought everyone was laying low. Good to see everyone still growing strong. I hope you get better doc. Are your problems smoke (mj) related?
too bad your yield(s) will be low, hawaii sucks
You mad? Must be that frostbite on your nani :)
