    im down to 4 strains.. and think that is the magic number as of right now.... just enough variety for me to keep happy... when i do the coliseum i may add a small mother room and keep a few mothers in dirt for it also to add a bit more variety to my life... i am pretty much growing as big as i...

    alright.. so now theres some pieces to the puzzle i didnt have before.. ok, first off you are ready to start nutes for sure... start them on 1/4 strength dose of nutes... see if that helps perk them up a little... if your plants are drinking water at a faster rate you need to either transplant...

    Heat stress??

    well my first question is what are your temps?? if you are worried about heat stress then it is obviously to warm in there and you should work on getting it cooler... what nutes are you feeding?? how often you watering?? whats your ph and ec?? i think i see you are growing some sort of hydro...

    well... as far as i can remember back here are my harvest amounts.. 2 harvests ago i got 1.5 lbs of 22 girls under just the 4 floros... there was many things wrong with this grow.. mainly i have 3 to 7 plants per pot... all 22 of them were split in 5 pots... so and i did nothing to control...

    i wouldnt think it'd take long to see the difference.... 1 auto + 1 photoperiod = 1 plant that may have some auto flowering tendencies but very washed out... auto flowering/ruderalis (in the scheme of things) is already a recessive trait.. it was added in just enough to make the auto...

    i like the autos too.. but definitely not something i could run all the time.. if i didnt have my two room setup i would run autos all the time.. but having the ability to veg and flower seperate makes it less appealing.. only because yeilds will be much less than with photo girls..

    new grows!!

    oxy - sounds like you have a solid plan.. i would try to get your soil and pots asap and get them transplanted and start to LST... the sooner the better... Fenni - good seeing you bro.. it has been a while... how are things?? stump - LST stands for low stress training.. it isnt chemical.. it...

    well the last part of the question, the part about ph, is the first thing i'll answer... when you first add your water and nutes to the res and check the ph you get one number... if you go back a few hours later there is a good chance it has drifted one way or another since then... there are...

    they will heal eventually... or not at all.. but little spots like that wont do any harm... having a couple brown spots here and there.. or minor imperfections... is fine.. its just a plant and as perfect as we try to keep things and them its pretty impossible to have perfect looking plants...

    i know how bright it is in my rooms with all the lights under reflectors.. i cant imagine how bright it is with those batwing reflectors you have... just with the bulb open... that'd be crazy... do you wear sunglasses when you go in there?? lol

    For all new growers with questions... Tons of information and answers..

    well.. outdoor is a little more easy on nutes than indoors.. you can use MG outdoors with less worry... i would still recommend a good 2 or 3 part nutrient system such as general hydroponics, fox farms, advanced nutes, technaflora, or cutting edge solutions... (the last is a new brand.. i am...

    new grows!!

    not too bad bro... they are a little stretched... but look healthy.. are you flowering or vegging?? if you are vegging you may want to consider either flipping to flower and/or doing some LST training to the taller ones... here is why... i say flip to flower because they are only going to...

    its nothing i would worry about.... your plant is fine... remember that is just a plant... as with most naturally occuring things there will be flaws regardless of how careful and loving we are... as long as the problem is limited to a few leaves, or is not progressing then it is nothing to...

    it actually cuts the power the ballast itself uses.... which limits what goes to the actual bulb... i have them set at 750w each.. so 3000w total between the 4 of them... so they are only pulling 3000w of power to the ballasts and thusly to the bulbs... if i turn them up to 1000w each...
