so now i need to regulate my nutes and watering, i have been threading lightly so far feeding and watering lightly, haven`t watered more than a litre of water that was on the biggest girl about 3 days ago and working down acording to size, now there still dampish about 3 inchs down so with that in mind would they be wet wet at bottom? i have drainage holes as much as possible, so where to go from here, feed again tomorrow or go few more days then feed?

Just keep em a nice emerald green but make sure the leaves are soft and pliable, if they're hard or cracking and/or too dark a green you need to cut back for a bit.

Your best chance at maximum quality/quantity is to feed them exactly what they want, so don't be afraid to feed a bit of veg feed in flower...remember green leaves are at least 50% more efficient at catching light than lime or yellow, that's alot more growth.

If you were to leave the males and females to grow out for a few years then go back and check on them, you'd see why they're called "weed".

Id love to do that but never got around to it.

Nah man they'll all be topped at the second node and then maybe bent a bit so it should be even enough. Just need a new ballast now, means I'll have 2 x 600w HPS tho :D

does anyone else hae he old type esb meters? can use a magnet to slow them down?

does anyone do it?
You'd be surprised how often people get caught growing purely cos they try tap/bypass the meter in some way. I wouldn't risk it man, especially since growing with like 600w total is like €30 a month.

nothing o do with tapping in ho har, you simply place the magnet on top of he meter and it lifs he wheel and causes i to rub and slow down...


heard of some good ones, like drilling the main fuse and tapering off the back of it, or the chinq guys that wire to street lights...hahahaha class
