Yay im home! girls are looking good, og kush was a lil droopy but id fed her on my break so its grand, gave the dbxl beast some water...not really giving loads of nutes to be honest as they don't seem to be losing any colour n their stems are nice n thick so I dunno, just don't wanna be someone that over feeds but saying that I've given em root stimulator every other feed which is 0-1-1. But other than that they got some verda fire once at the start (clogged up my Hanna Meyer) (1/5th recommend serving) n the other week I gave some dilute (1ml-2ltr ) vitalink (hydro feed but its fine to use in soil I just have to use VERY LITTLE) n since then im watering whenever they want I tend to go by pot weight as opposed to finger 2 inch as my og kush always drinks real fast (pots light within 2 days) but its still a little moist finger 2 inch in.

waiting on the woman to wake up to upload pics!!

cant get the camera right,the pics dont show up the yellowing but show buds,they seem very airy with lots of hairs,some are changing colour now,could I pick one branch with all brown hairs as a sampler?am in week 6 and seemingly it finishes in 7-8 weeks?im mad to smoke these ladies

the 7-8 isn't set in stone buddy, wait till they tell you to chop. What lighting are you using?... N just wait dude lol...keep buying crap so when you harvest n cure you'll know the difference

im using 600 hps,have used it for full grow but will be usng cfls for my next girls in veg,mines a lumaket ballast and just changed it tonight up to super lumens but not sure it it adds much

haha im running out of green and that's why I have my eye on a branch but will hold out...jesus I cant wait to chop them down,sending the missus and kids away for two days when their dry,all arranged with her and all.happy days

The super lumans function is to get the last out of old bulbs n is known to greatly shorted a bulbs life. If U have a lumatek then its a dimmable so get a 400w MH n that will greatly improve things, nodes will be tighter n I'll have a shorter bushy beast n all you'll need is to buy the bulb.you going to cure ur ladies?


Don't get me wrong cfls are great for early veg but if you have to buy add ons other than the bulb id say just get a mh bulb n you'll be rewarded for it

just watched the new paranormal..."the marked ones" and what a complete waste of time...

going to have to get an electrical one i`m thinking, the gel and crystal methods just don`t seem to have the punch i need, there effective as in there maxxed out with moisture ... and its not cost effective to continue there is a bit of an outlay on a decent model but it looks like i`ll have to sffer that blister.. and sure i`ve gotten away with doing it the cheap way for this long hahahahaha.....

Haha I knew it would, the trailers always look good but then the movie sucks.

Well didn't get the job so times are gonna be a tight, glad to have access to about 1 pound due to the co-op. And at least I was able to smoke tonight, still hitting the SourChemdawg and BlZ Bud.

sorry to hear mate, I remember how depressing it can be especially when you get that far into the interview.

 

[ghostdogalpha]

Sorry about the job @md. I know how that goes. The next one will be better.

 

[R3l@X]

Hey ghost, how's ur lady looking today?

 

[Jay420365]

well lads,tried to put up pics last night but it wont let me here for some reason?anyone else have the same problems?

 

[ghostdogalpha]

Hello @R31. How are you. Your babies sounding good and well fed. Never heard of the super lumen function before. I can see the appeal but I would rather not fuck with my bulbs. Bit paranoid when it comes to big voltage,s in a small space.Planty looked well this morning. Vertical growth seems to have slowed down and will prob top out at about 22" which is about right for what was advertised. Was expecting another week of vertacl growth but will take what I am given. Whats your plan for the day?

 

[R3l@X]

no idea mate, are U doing it from a phone or laptop?

like I said its great to get ever last drop out of ur bulb.nothing to be paranoid about tbh its watts n watts of fun but saying that I've a fire alarm next to my grow n only ever bought brand name electricals like the lunatek has like a 5yr warrenty.dunno about autos but id love more pics. Gonna post some pics tomorrow as its just about lights out n their all droopy for sleep mode.

 

[ghostdogalpha]

Look forward to the pics @R31. You know your kit alright!Not sure about your upload @Jay. Sometime the pic upload bugs out on me too but in my case it's just my crappy connection. But if I use the "basic uploader" option it tends to work fine.

 

[Jay420365]

no idea mate, are U doing it from a phone or laptop?

from the laptop dude,wouldnt upload to message and tried it through a file too but no joy,pissing me off now!

doing the washing here,i don't blame your bird for wanting to use the dehumidifier ironing is the worst...

 

[R3l@X]

U can actually use the deionised water the dehumidifier collects for your iron haha.

@ghost, I usually shop by warranty.if a company is willing to give a 5yr warranty it usually says alot about a product.

 

[ghostdogalpha]

@R31.Yep. Warranty is the way to go. It's just a cost thing with me at the mo till I change jobs.@Jay.You running any add-ons in your browser like ad-block? If you are using one browser like internet explorer, try another like firefox or chrome.

 

[R3l@X]

^^^^ great thinking that might be it.

After this cunting dehumidifier imma be skint for a while so I wont be getting any amoke this week either (since I started growing I've been smoking waaay less hahaha

 

[ghostdogalpha]

Hahaha.....yeah me too. I plan on pulling a massive whitey the first week of harvest to make up for it lol . It pisses me off now but I know it will be worth it. I just have no patience what so ever.

yes I have an add block thing on it alrite, ill try that dude thanks


was it you ghostdog who was talking about watering during lights off last week? i've been wondering ever since how do you see what your doing?lol

 

[ghostdogalpha]

Think it was ae86 and R31. I think the idea is to do it just before lights out? I dont have a choice as I am not home during lights out. I will arrange it better next time. Also I read a lot about spraying the water on or useing a proper watering head as it air's the water is better for plants. Again I am sure the other lads will have an answer.
