ive heard it. i think it sresses them too much to have roots and foliage such different temps. i think its best to just drop the ambient temps.

Purple only comes from real purple strains and not by stress. If the leafs are purple then you've got problems. You can stress them purple or blue but it will be just the leafs and you'll loose yeild. I use to do that back in the 80's but now run true purple strains which are a ton better and look way better...

no arguements in this thread LOL
but i think its common knowledge that at the end of the season when temps drop to the fifties, plants colors begin to change. this happens to foliage and we call it autumn colors. this isnt a misnomer, it actually happens. its happening right now, go look out the window.

now your argument that purple strains look better well....perhaps thats true but yes i think the colder temps will alter the plants (including the flowers) color....

I ran the same strain (purple strain) two crops in a row and the second one got much more purple and i attibute that to the colder temps (i ran colder temps in an attempt to color the buds more).

all this said, i dont really care about purple, i simply care that my buds look great.

wait wait, so the guy who got shot and died was attempting robbery? and the woman/protector gets charged with murder???...interesting scenario.

Still have a hard time having any sympathy for robbers...sort of righteous justice I guess.
i have zero sympathy for thieves.

in the article it said that the guy was there to act as a protector but he was the protector LOL

hi corey, the only thing i have for runoff is the 4x4 tables and i lined the floor with a white plastic. i have calculated the amount of liquid to put in each pot to get minimal runoff and the water just sit on the tables for a few minutes before the soil absorbs it back into the pots. an hour later i come in with a towel and just wipe down any soil sediment on the tables/floor. its not messy though at all, really.

flushing is another story now. however its still simple. i just do what i gotta do and then use a shamwow on the plastic floor.

so how often do you have to water somthing like that? im growing in soil now but thinking about switchin it up. i already have a drip system installed that i was using for soil but stopped using it because i wanted a more one on one experience with my plants(it helps you spot def's and look more closely at what going on)

Oh ok yea i can dig that. Well the soilless medium is just like your soil, its just synthetic (fake). I use pro mix bx. I just happen to use alot of perlite with it so they get thirsty every three days at this point, just over a couple weeks into 12/12.

Just wanted to pop in and tell you how great your thread is for info and bud porn. I am in MI as well, and I am looking forward to the day that I can grow legally. I am currently gathering the materials and tools for a 3 room (stage?) grow. I amazed at the results you are getting from soil and not hydro/aero. How much of a jump did your electric take with your lights, are you running it all off one breaker circuit? Had any unwanted visitors? I ask because I am loathe to put my name on a list some fed can get ahold of. Thanks! And again...great work my friend!

thanks for sharing the grow rzza. I will also vouch for the fact cooler temps can bring out beautifull colors in the buds. Sweet Tooth being a prime example of action - reaction.
