Hey VV I just got my BB in and was going to run them along with the JF and thought you said that the BB was hardier and needed less nutes then the rest of what you were running , just wanted to double check that with you asI also have my WW always going, and had no problems with the ww and JF being on the same feeding schedule, but now that I switched to DWC I was pondering the thought of running the BB seperate but wanted to check with you about your experience with them before I made arrangments for all that.
You are correct, I found they needed lower early nutes. I have been told they grow out of that when they are ready for flowering. After a conversation I had with Earl, I have lowered my ppm anyway and the blues may do ok. I still have two clones from them and will continue to mess with them. The Juicy Fruits I saved for mothers are all doing well and these are third generation known females, still moved a few of them into flowering. I suppose I could post some pictures, I just don't want to bore anyone.
MrHowardMarksHope everything's going well
with your mom, and your garden.
Some newb was flameing me cause he didn't believe a 4 bulb t5 had 40k lumens. Even after I linked him to a product page. I sent the guy asking the original question your way, he has a 4x4x4 cabinet. Told him you know what a t5 can do.
Good luck anyway, I should be flowering in 2-3 weeks or so.
How's everything going?
Thanx. Closet growers should investigate the t-5's if stealth is an issue, it takes an 8 bulb t-5 to produce 40,000lumens from what I have seen.
My mom is doing well, she had a tia, like a mini stroke, no further incidents, she has been checked from head to toe, has some allergy, and is in good health otherwise. She is 85, doesn't drive much at night, lives fairly independant. I have committed to taking her to any doctors appointments she has, and feel fortunate to do this for her. We are working on Geraniums in her garage, its heated, she has a few plant stands, I will have to expand them. I should be harvesting my first 8 week close to proper crop in the next week or so, clones are taking and ready to flower in two weeks, the entire operation is improving as I begin to take time with the plants. I found I was overwatering for the medium, and am getting better looking results with less, 1 1/2 to 2" of water, twice a day and done.
My support group is improving in plant knowledge as well, 2 of them have purchased homes and want to get their feet wet, and I encourage that. Especially with the Medical Marijuana Ballot Proposal we will be voting on, polls show 58% approval.
Earlpost a pix of them please.
Well ok, here are some pics of what is going on now. The first 2 tables are 5 weeks and 7 weeks in flowering, the third is the widow/cindys in flowering. most of them went into flowering on 9/19 so a little over four weeks now, seem to have slowed growth in height and are starting to fill out, here is a closer shot of bud development, 2 weeks flowering, clones not quite 1 week, mothers and a few more clones. I have extra clones right now, haven't sexed 6 of the WC's yet, some will be male I am sure. VV
