Alrighty time for an update:
I chopped the White Widow at the first sign of amber trics. 9 weeks to the day. I also had a situation with my living arrangement and chopping it made me feel more comfortable. SO the Blue is still goin, I figure it has another week or two perhaps. It is super...
Check out the cab i bought from Walmart.com it was only $150

Id say the hardest part was getting the weatherstripping on the doors to stick and block all the light. With a little doctoring up its def possible...
Thanks for the replies guys. Ive always knew that their nute schedule sucks ass, but I figured that the Big Bloom wasnt strong enough to burn up my seedlings. I havent used any Grow Big yet so I dont feel like I fried them out. I guess you learn from every grow. I was thinking how i could...
I recently started 3 new seedlings. They sprouted as planned.

According to this I start the organic Big Bloom with 6tsps with my waterings. I read that its hard to burn them up since theres trace amounts of nutes in it. I put a little...
Right on thanks a lot!! Its been a hella process getting it to where it is now but I think Im good to go.
Its almost been 9 weeks of now and Im still not seeing any yellow trics yet. I guess Ill keep waitin it out. I got my MH conversion bulb in today. As soon as these widows get done Imma...
Day 41 of flower:
First 3 pics are pics of the new cabinet, next 2 are the plants, last one is the new ones sprouting :)
Heres a review:
250w HPS
Windtunnel 4" fan
Blue Widow on the left, White Widow on the right.
I learned a few things the hard way so Im glad Ive got this grow under my...
DAY 53 - DAY 23 OF FLOWER
I upped the nutes to full strength and I think I pissed them off. Im seeing hella signs of nute burn today so I flushed them out with PH'd water. Ive been meaning to flush so now was as good a time as any. Other than the yellow bottom leaves, everything is comin...
Hey!
I bought a 1A adaptor from Radio Shack. They sell a bunch of different power supplies with customizable ends for cell phones, laptops, etc. I just cut the tip off (no Lorena Bobbitt) and wired it directly to the fan wires. Works like a charm!
I went to the hydro store today and I picked up a PH kit that had a tester and some PH up and down.
Just as I suspected, the nuted water Ive been feeding the plants has a real low PH. ~4.0 Thats no good Ive been reading. I added 1tsp of PH up and it went up to a suitable 6-6.5ish range...
Now Im thinkin I can do 3 Orangebuds under a rectangle screen. I can put the plants in up to 8"square pots. Thatd for sure give me enough room across the screen and in the pots. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
In other news, its almost time to start germing some new seeds. Im at least gonna do 1 if not 2 of the Orange Buds under a screen. Im thinking it would be easier to put them both under the screen if they were the same strain, but I kinda wanna check out this Kushberry Ive got too. Hmmmmmm...
Ive been doing a little more research and Ive decided I need to start paying attention to the PH of my nuted water and soil. Ive been just mixin up the nutes and throwing them in the plants. I realize I need to be checkin the PH and most likely raising it as everything Ive read says that that...
Thanks a lot man, thats what I was lookin for. My 250w HPS will be here today, so by the weekend, they will at least be enjoying being spread out and the extra light. I guess I could put one higher spectrum CFL in there with the HPS to get my blue. maybe a 26w or so? Thatd be roughly 10%
Cool thanks. I hit em with a 3/4 dose of Grow Big and ill see how they look tomorrow. In the meantime, the BW plant is still holding water for an awfully long time. I watered it 4 days ago and it still is reading 9/10 on the moisture meter. Its been going about 7 days between waters. Is...
Hey all~
Ive ran into a slight problem. I believe its a nitrogen defieciency. Quite a few of my lower leaves are turning yellow. Ive read that flower nutes have less nitrogen than the veg nutes. That all makes sense, but I just fed them the day before, I did a mix of veg and bloom nutes per...
