Welcome to the site Queen!
I am using 4 cfl lamps - so that 2 x 32watt bulbs each...the lamps are spaced 1/2" apart (and side-by-side)...the bulb mix is 4 x cool white and 4 x warm white to get the red and blue spectrum mix...the closet is 4' x 2' and with the lights the temp stays at 28 degress and 20 degrees with lights off. The lights are kept less than 2" from the tops of the plants so that means they are adjusted almost everyday. I use regular tap water left over-night then mix in schultz plant food as per the directions. Watering is 200ml everyday during veg and 300ml every two days during flowering. At the end of the 2nd week of flowering, I trim off every large feeder leaf leaving only developing feeder leaves...height growth in the plant stops for about 3 days but this causes all of the other shoots to gain more height and produce more buds. I dont crown the plant (but will try it with the next crop). Having said that though...you getting 41g a plant is good...what strain was it though. The seeds I started out with were all cali orange and yet the 4 original plants I got from the seeds were very different in characteristics. The plant I kept as the mother was the one that stayed the smallest and naturally grew the bushiest. Let me know.
here's what i am looking at right now...i am at 3 weeks and 3 days of flowering...the plants are 27" in height and there is an average of 50-60 buds on each plant right now...the average width and height of each bud is 7/8" (seven-eighths of an inch)...there is still 4 weeks and 4 days of flowering to go...the plant food is schultz bloom builder (10-54-10)...
Hey everyone, names SirRobin. Im 19 and trying my hand in growing for the first official time and came across this community to help with any questions i have. I used to post on Cannabisworld but theyve been taken down by piggies
Im using a 48" fluroscent lite along with a couple (2-3) 65-120watt lights, one being an old reptile light (mercury vapor) used to add suplemental UVA and UVB light to an enclosure, and a couple 65 watt plant lights from target. I plan on upgrading to a more powerful lighting system as I get more experience, but for now Im just hanging out gathering more info. Ive already planted 8 seeds in a container with organic potting soil, just waiting for a sprout!
Just wanted to introduce myself, you guys will see me around a bit.

Doom everything you are doing is grow look thought the site go to GrowFAQ and read because you sould not transplate that much first of all and 12hr on 12hrs off lighting is only good for budding u should be doing 18/6 light or 24/7 light 121/12 lighting when plant gets to be about 14'' to 18'' inches in length.----AND ITS BEEN 1 WEEK SINCE I PLANTED MY SEEDS.

It's nice to find a spot where I can talk to real people about questions about my grow and not worry about them telling other people and then getting busted. As with most of the older group (I'm 3
I have took the time to create an endless trail through cyberspace and am picking up a wireless signal from a neighbor so as to be almost untracable.
I bought some very good one hit wonder 4 years ago. I found only 12 seeds in three ounces and kept them. I put them in a baggie in a drawer and forgot about them. I have been struggling with supply because I don't tell my friends or co workers that I smoke so the low profile has left me with very few sources from which to buy.
I started researching seed banks and grow lights then read as many grow guides as I could find. All great info and if your thinking about growing: You need to read, or you'll never succeed, at growing your weed.
I read that I didn't store my seeds correctly and they should have been in an air tight container in the freezer. I was very sad, but I thought I'd see if they would sprout anyway so I soaked a couple paper towles and waited. In 2 days three grerminated, then 4,5,and 6. the next thing I knew all 12! but I wasn't perpared for any of them. I made a few phone calls and found an indoor grow shop where the tatooed 20 something owner and I talked about the tomatoe plants my father had given me seeds form and that I accidentally germinated them. He was a welth of knowledge. I left with $650 in lights, nutes, mylar, and soil.
I transfered the sprouts to the soil but only 8 made it. The plants really took off under the florecent lights. I waited til the third set of leaves started to show and pinched the tops. I waited til each of the new sprouts had their third leaf and pinched them. I did this one more time before I stopped. Now I have very low and very bushy plants. I started adding nutes after the second pinch and the plants seemed to be doing great.
When they got 8 inches or so tall I moved them to the grow room under a 400w MH bulb. Within a few days some of the leaves started to turn yellow. I used the premixed water and nutes in a ph tester but couldn't get the color to match the chart so I added up, then down, and used alot of solution. Finally I gave up and gave it to the plants anyway, big mistake! I should have thrown it out.
I have 2 plants that turned completely yellow and almost all the others got some sort of yellow on the leaves. First on the lower ones and then the new growth. The 2 that are the worst the top leaves curled up and browned, panic set in and I started searching the web for answers, that's when I found when I typed my question in to google most of the links brought me here so I said fuck it and signed up so I could interact with people and not just go off what others are talking about.
I found that if I ph the water first then add nutes it will stay near the same ph as the water. I also found that the amount of up and down I used was 100 times what I needed. I hope that flushing them will bring them out of their present state. The ph kit didn't give any clues on ratio to bring a certian amount of water up or down. It turned out that only a few drops were enough to change a whole gallon of water. I had used almost a 1/4 cup!
Anyway, I still have 6 good plants and have transplanted them to 2 gallon pots and they seem to be florishing. I will try to get some pic's to post so anyone who may have a similar problem might see the resemblance and know what their doing wrong. Hope this was a lesson I won't ever repeat.
