I'm out in the eastern mountains of sd as well. A it 15 to 20 further east than El Cajon and love it. Great outdoor growing if you can till this fuckin clay mountainside soil.
Quite odd that we don't have a thread for those of us a little further south than LA. I am starting this is hopes of building a small community of us that can talk/ bullshit over beers and trade some shit around. I'm a firm believer in people's privacy and I do understand that many out there...
Addressing the problem is all you have been doing man. No matter what any of us say on this site it is only based on our particular rooms and setups. We can give you a general idea and from there you need to experiment with your ladies to see what does what for you. And please remember. To a...
She actually looks rather healthy. I would say if you noticed the lockout and it was truly a lockout, the fresh water you just ran through the soil broke up and discarded the overbuilt up salt. I would suggest watching her for the next few days mainly focusing on new growth (leafs). The new...
I agree with a bit of both of the above.
To claim your room is anything close to nature... Your pissing into 90 mph wind.
For lighting, I did some playing with lighting recently, and I've actually got it set up a bit different than I've heard from other users. I found that during the cloning...

Why wouldn't you go reverse of what your doing? Leave the intake as passive to your room and exhaust out of the window you want to intake through. That way you arnt frosting the lady's by forcing frigid air on them, but instead allowing the controlled environment air from the room to be...
Psh.... The plain old white bag with the orange stripe on it. Forgot the company name but its ingredients are forest compost, mulch, and perlite. I mix that at 50/50 wih more perlite ( big green bag at Home Depot). I think I figured it out to less than a buck fifty to fill a 5 gallon pot with...
Give the plant time to regrow the bud sites you just snipped. Once you see some shoots coming and notice good node development, then you can consider tossing her in flower. Just remember the more nodes you start with going into flower, the more bud sites she has at the ready to produce.
While growing under fluoros your not going to get a very speedy growth. Not in comparison to a MH anyways. Just let them do their thing and in time you will be happy you waited. Wise man once told me anything you rush now will always harm the later....
