you really did that with 150w HPS? what the fuck am i doing wrong
I am no expert at all. But this is what I do. The seeds are Nirvana NL Fem.
Soil: 50/50 Mix Sunshine +4 Advanced, Fox Farm OF, Perlite, and Dolomite to help with PH.
Start in Red cups, Transplant once to those green pots after the third set of nodes.
Veg is under the CFL 150's & 40's 2 each, in my homemade reflector for 24/0 for 5-6 weeks. Also the soil in the cups is the same in the big pots, so not soil shock.
No Nutes for at least a week or 2 after transplant, the soil has all it needs. When I Nute its 1/4 strength for the first 4 to 5 weeks for VEG, maybe up to 1/2 for week 5 & 6, using Botanicare Grow formula.
When I go 12/12 then no more than 1/2 strength the recommended Botanicare schedule nutes. Plain H20 ever other watering.
I also make sure the pots are light and dry when I am ready to water.
I LST them during VEG, to get more NUGS. Then just be patient and the girls should do fine.
Temps are around 80-83 Day, 65 Night. The reason they are small is my box has its limits because of the height and the 150HPS hanging at the top.
The first 3 pics are week 9, before harvest, the last one is week 4 flower.
I changed all the electrical to outside once I had the setup correct.
Hope this may help!! Peace
Using plain water for flush. Thanks to all the ROI people for the best info and great discussions.
