whodat, did i read that right, you flowered space bomb in soil with no added fertilizers? that must be some seriously good mix you have there.
Yup, water only with a few doses of molasses to feed the micros in the soil.
So many people have this misconception of the benefit of molasses. It does not sweeten your buds or make them ripen. The sugars in molasses feeds the mycorhizae in your soil that breaks down nutrients resulting in more available nutrients for the plant to uptake.(in a nutshell) Molasses is beneficial throughout a grow, not just during flowering. But like Dezracer said, if you are using something else with sugars in it then probably not.
Thanks for clearing that up, I agree 100%..
Does anyone know of a good Digital PH tester to pick up? They are just as accurate, right? (as test strips)
Hanna makes some good meters, any digital meter should be much much more accurate than those strips and drops... Those strips are useless IMO and sure others can agree with me (jig?)
My 600w hps light comes on for about a minute then off again and the light it gives out is really White. Anyone any ideas on the problem there?
Iv noticed that higher quality bulbs put out more of a blue/white color when they first fire up. Im thinking its the ballast.
Just went to a friends house rigged my ballast up to his grow and it worked fine. Then I put the bulb in his grow and the fucker nearly set on fire. Guess I couldn't smell it burning at my grow because it was in an air cooled reflector hooked up to my fan.
Scary shit, Id get a refund on both the bulb and the ballast.
