Do you think it is nice to cut all the leaves of plants? because you can not get light to all chapters.

no.no.no....not good to cut all leaves off will shock em. leaves feed the buds, so if you remove em...ouch!

light will penetrate your leaves, plants don't see light like we do... ;)

I think were saying something the same here, it is OK to trim a few leaves if they can't be moved out of the way, if they can't trim. This does not apply to SOG or High density growing even LST as it is the opposite.

How do you when to change the CFL with MH?

Again, this is something people will have different opinions about. But this is what I WOULD DO. I would start my clones out under CFL's and once they have rooted and grown a set, or two of leaves you can then put them under the MH.

Some people would rather grow the clone out more before putting them under MH. And others will use MH throughout the whole vegetation stage.

I personally don't use a MH at all. I get better results under my CFL's. For some reason when I use CFL's I can keep the short and bushy. Yes you can do that with MH too but I find I keep them shorter and bushier with CFL's. I think that has to do with the ability to put CFL's really close to your plants. Unlike MH lights to where you can't.

A good rule of thumb is to put your hand under the light. If it burns your hand then its too hot for your plants. If it does not then its fine.

Anyways thats my 2 cents.
 
There are 10 days!

IMG_0810.jpgIMG_0811.jpgdo not see these strange anomaly?If you do not see I'll tell you one root out two plants. very strange do not you think?
 
1. CFL will use well until you exit all the roots of the cubes and then I can put my MH?
2. Do you find it strange that a plant last 2 pictures?

NO

everyone is breeding and when that happens you get abnormal plants. The twisting is from any number of things from to much food to to much light or stress.
 
Hmm ... strange why others do not become abnormal? :) Probably all want to havedegenerated as my 2 1 root plants:)
 
I have the following problem: Calibration of 7.0-7.1 PH meter and then weigh the water PH is 5.8 after some changes it goes from 4.8-6.6? someone has an idea ofwhat is due to this thing?
Calibrate the meter as follows: wash under the tap and then dunk it in a solution of 7.1PH and then wash with a solution that will compete and only then mete great solution.
I think it is correct.
 
If you dont wash inbetween soloutions you are cross contaminating! Do this, wash, dip in 7.0 adjust,wash,dip in 4.0 adjust,wash. My probe calls to sit in water so I stick it in my clean water res.When making new tests allways wash before.
