veg

A plant can increase 2 or 3 times in size during the flowering period. But does that multiple depend on the amount of time the flower stays in veg? For instance, imagine the genetics is the same, and you keep the strain in veg for 5 weeks. After you switch it to flower for 10 weeks and it...

So, I am about to start a new small grow. Approx. 5ftW X 5FtL X 6ftH. 600W . I've recently noticed I have only flowering bulbs left (don't ask), and am wondering can I use it for both cycles of life for them? I know the spectrum means a lot, and you're supposed to be imitating outside - on the...

i currently have 2 600W hps lights and 12 small super lemon cuttings was just wondering if I was to put a 24watt LED light in between the 2 lights would that make a difference on plant growth or plant quality? No experience what so ever with LEDS if someone could help would appreciate it

Have some ladies in 150 gallon pots that i want to see get bigger before they start flowering, and i know they only have 2-3 weeks of veg left on sunshine alone and then they'll start to flower. I don't need anything that will help with growth at night, I just need something to interupt their...

Hi all!!! Does anyone have a good led bulb setup? Pics would be great. Working with 8 60watt led Cree bulbs. All have the bulb covers removed. The splitters we bought put the bulbs at pretty sharp angles. So just pictures or advice would be great. This is for germination / seedling stage...

Hi, i have a CXB3590 3000K fixture as my light but also have an old Mars II 400 - would the Mars be better for vegging? specs are 440nm, 460nm, 630nm ，660nm,730nm(IR), 2400k-3000k thank you

This plant was started from seed on February 17, moved outside on April 1, and topped once on April 19. For nutrients I use the fox farm soil trio at half strength every other watering, and happy frog soil. I was hoping it would finish flowering after putting it outside too early on accident...

I have an Ultra Sun MH bulb, I was going to use for veg and switch to my hortilux for flower. I am open to opinions on just scrapping the cheap MH and just running the hortilux the whole way through. What chall think? Ditch the MH or stick with it. Thanks in advance

I thought i would share some photos from how my first grow is coming along and see if anyone has any advice. I'm growing 2 plants in a closet that is 500mm x 1200. Im growing 2 strains, durban poison and the other is a green crack. About a week ago i put them into 27 litre (7gal) fabric pots...

I'm just going to start a thread on my newest grow box build, and first real "stealth" attempt. It's just an old crappy dresser with dimensions of 3 1/2ft L x 17in W x 47in H. I plan on throwing my new cxm22 cob array in there, which should be plenty of light. About to go pick up some beer and...

hi, I made a amateur mistake and put too much grow in a feed. The results are some fan leaves are drooping at the tips. I'm still in veg but I'm worried about how this will affect my plant in flowering. I will flush next time I water them, waiting for them to be more dry. Please view...

I wanna know what kind of monster I'm looking at, I can tell put her into flower.. so she is stuck growing until she does, I'm putting her in the ground tomorrow. How much training do I have to do to keep her under 5ft?? I'm already super cropping and topping

I haven't been on RIU in a while and alot of things have changed since then, Since i've been offline i've changed my setup. As of the moment i'm using two xsunny cree led lights that are running "1000w" but pull 225w from the wall. Im running cycles of 10 plants so i have 3 cycles, 1 room is veg...

Hey RIU its been a while but im curious if anyone has any input on my situation... I have sour diesal clones that have been in red solos for about two months, The past week ive noticed what seems like there starting to flower, and i know its not pre sex pistals or anything like that they were...

First time grower here. Does anyone know why my bottom leaves might be dying? Also the tips on most of my leaves are turning yellow. My plants aren't doing too bad, just the bottom leaves are struggling. Let me know if you can help!

Has anyone tried this using any brand? What where your observations? Would you (for a full cycle fixture)make a panel all 3000k 90cri and add supplemental blue for vegg or use 3000/3500/4000k 80cri and use supplemental red for flower? Just being curious what people think
