I think around 3-4 weeks is a good time to do it. Depends on the strain. You need it early enough so the seeds can mature, but not so early that there aren't many flower sites.

Probably pH related. Might be a salt toxicity thing.

Flush with the right pH solution and treat for cal-mag deficiency.

It could also be spider mites. Check for those as well.
 
How old are ur plants? One of mine are 5 weeks but don't have as much bushyness as urs do. Kinda frustrating b/c I see a lot of ppl's plants younger than mine and are way more bushy and greener all over. About add more light but I seriously need advice. Also what do I do about this. The leaves that have 3 leaflets on them are starting to turn a lil yellowish with brown tips. And the set right after that u can say the same thing but these are going back green. Any help anyone?
 
Hey whats up.

Im germinating 4 seeds right now. I soaked them in a shot glass untill they sunk, then put them into 1" RW cubes. Today i can see the taproot.

I dont have a T5 or cfl's. Just using my 600mh right now, keeping it pretty far away.

So, should i buy a T5 and slam it on them or just continue the way i am ? I saw a T5 at home depot would this one be ok ? it was like 29$

Oh, and right now my bubblebucket is grey. Should i cover it from the light ? if so with what ?

Thanks !

So I have a ques. I have FFOF soil but I know it has Fruit fly eggs in it but Can't get anymore(I'm far away). But I also have some organic sunshine but it is 75% sphag. peat moss, perlite, Dolomite lime, organic wetting agent, and some other omri product not sure but its far less in N than FFOF. So my question is Should I mix them or put FFOF on bottom of my 10g smart pot and fill the rest up with organic sunshine? I'm using Humboldt organic line.

If you guys know any other soil ways of battling fruit flies let me know. I've heard of a sand layer on top because they will cut themselves trying to reach top. I have a pest strip that I can use and did before what a mess though fruit flies aren't gonna ruin a grow but what annoying site to see!!

I germ with a 400W( But I have burned seedlings because of temp) but never did with a 600w just make sure your temps are good mite be some light for them but I'm sure someone here has done it.

I have the same one.
What are the measurements between the screw holes?
I just measured mine, they are 5" apart on one side, and 3 5/8" on the other.
measure the screw holes on yours and see if it's a match.....
Just so you don't buy something you do not need.......
well I just looked closely on my hood and there is 2 screws on the bottom and 2 open cuts at the top for some kind of attachment. im not sure this one http://www.htgsupply.com/Product-Single-4-Inch-Cooling-Flange.asp
that you posted is going to work. http://i1190.photobucket.com/albums/z458/sbuuttler/03-13-2011/lightsetup.jpg at the top is 2 slits and at the bottom is 2 screws. so WEIRD i just dont know

I have never seen anything like that. I use the Supernova reflector for my HPS. Attachment fits perfect.
What's the name-brand/model of the hood? I'd contact the store that sold it to you, or at least a store that sells it, and ask what attachment to use.
Worse comes to worse, get an attachment that is a 4" size, and make your own screw holes. Duct tape may work too, but not as good as the proper attachment.

Best of luck with this e20sm0ke.

I can't really say if they will be coming back to life soon because I cannot see them and I cannot rule out other issues.

But if you can get your pH squared and you treat them with a little cal-mag that should at least give them a fighting chance.

I am still working on that whole "predicting what will happen" thing, but my crystal ball isn't in service at the moment.
