Well a couple you have asked how my grow was doing. Unfortunately i dont have my good camera, so these pics will have to do. I have 11 plants, all feminized. About a week into flower right now. Have 9 females showing, but camera wont zoom in to take a good pic. So until then here are a few.IMAG0049.jpg

Do you plan to add more lights? Or is there more that aren't in the pic?
They look a little stretchy.

I have more lights, but shut them off for the pics. I was dumb early on in seedling stage and stretched the shit out of them. So theyve been that way ever since.

Looks good man.. Where did you get the seeds? Why are those lights taped to the lids?? I can give you some advice if I knew a little more about your setup.. but they look good :blsmoke:

i taped the lights down because they kept moving whenever i bumped any of the plants. One day i came home and one of the lights had moved touching one of my plants bottom leaves burning it. So i just taped it down.Heres where i get my seeds: http://www.cannabisseeds.com/marijuana-seeds.htm

They have good prices, and they ship in crush proof containers.

So i have root rot.......this fucking blows asshole........got some H202, unfortunately no microbes to put in the water. I plan on putting some H2O2 into my res. tonite to flush the roots a bit, then tomorrow im going to clean the roots by rinsing them in some ph'd water, and also im gonna clean out the res., hoses, and pumps. Does this sound like an ok way to try and control the root rot? Never dealt with it before, and ive got mixed info. on what to do. Thanks

Cleaning everything is an excellent start for sure. Can you take a couple of pics of the roots?

Hey, those lights you have on the bottom, under the plants are almost useless down there.
The under sides of the leaves dont obsorb light, if you can, get them above or beside the plant. they will be much more effective.

The h202 should work fine if you dont have anything designed for it. Make sure you use the 29 or 32% though. The lower % 1s have a lot more stabilizers in them

So its been about 13 hours since i added some H2O2 in my res. tubs to help clear the root rot. I have some before and after pics to show you how much its already cleared up. Id say probably about 80%.

Heres some side by side before and after pics. I only have two pics of the root rot, bit i assure you all 3 res. had it.

Hey. If your plants are indicas, they are definitely begging for more light. There is alot of stretch between the nodes. Stretch can be caused by high heat or lack of sufficient light.

I know you said you had T5 and CFLs but I don't see them in the pics. Ideally each leaf should be recieving light. The CFLs taped underneath the plants are having little to no effect.

Tell me your set up so we can get more light working for you.

I removed the lights from the bottom. I will get you a pic tonight or tomorrow.
