Thanks... J.O.C.that's what I thought. It just feels like a long time. I'm guessing about 14 weeks of total flowering time before I harvest the rest. Meaning about 2 more weeks. I wonder why I'm having a tough time achieving that "advertised approximation" time? Could it have been the heat...

Ladies and Gentlemen, Thanks for taking a look at this Thread. A larger thanks to those who decide to reply with useful information.:-P Currently I'm into the late stages of my 3rd grow. I live in a changeable climate without having issues others face like humidity, heat, water etc... This...

Thanks Pal, I should have mentioned the ballast will be located outside of the grow tent. Right now, Hot air is exhausted by a duct fan outside of the room via side window. Air inside the room is exchanged by a dual widow fan, one fan in-taking & the other side exhausting air. I haven't...

Ladies and Gents, I'm about 5 weeks into Flower on my first Grow. I'm using lots of CFL Bulbs and my results, though not bad are not even comparable to many other HPS grows. I knew this before my grow but the amount of CFL watts I'm using is quite large. I also allowed my plants to become...

Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a quick question about HPS bulbs vs Metal Halide bulbs during Vegetation. Can I get expect a vigorous healthy plant with a great yield only using HPS? OR...Is it critical to obtain a MH bulb and then later switch to HPS during bloom? I'm really hoping you're...

Hey guys, This is my first grow, and I have a lighting question for my future grows. Here's a little background. I'm 4 1/2 weeks into flower and my buds are looking pretty good. I say pretty good because in comparing my CFL based bloom against others HPS blooms, mine seems too be lacking...

Thank you ALL for your input so far. I kinda figured UVB might be a fallacy. Who knows though for sure?? I"ll invest in more CFLs. I do think that's the safe way to go.

Hope all is well with everyone. Hope you all are enjoying the new year. I posted pics of my grow in my pictures & albums, and like most people I want to make sure I have enough CFL lumens to get some hearty buds. My current setup is in a small coat closet 38''L x 32''W. I'm hanging a Multi...

Hey, I came across one your threads about your PH spiking. I'm doing my first grow right now using the bubbleponics system. My pH is going through the roof right now. I can't keep it down for more than 3-4 hours. Like you, my pH goes as high as 8.0-8.2. The other night I set the pH in the...

Hey guys, I'm doing my first grow hydroponically using the Bubble Ponics system and I'm having some major pH issues. I'm using City water and I think it has tons of minerals in it, which is causing my pain...:wall: The reason I'm saying it has a lot of minerals; I Went on vacation a few...

Thanks Alex for the advice. Thanks for posting the links as well. I understand that peroxide raises PH. I tested the pH after adding a tbsp of peroxide to a gallon of water. As far as the water getting cloudy?? I can't help but think about my father having problems with our home pool's...

Hey guys, I've been really struggling with my grow. No big deal, first time so I expected problems. Anyway, I created a thread previous to the one I'm writing now....https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/273485-please-help-1st-grow-bubbleponics.html I really believe I figured out what is...

Thanks for the advice, It helped for a couple days. I noticed a positive change in my plants. BUT... I'm still having troubles. More troubles than before I'm afraid... The lower leaves (not the bottom of the leaves) on my plants are dying. It's starts like this...a slight browning on the...

I can't thank you enough for getting back to me. It's possible the water temp in the reservoir and feeding too high of a dose could be my early issues. The lights too close to the sprouts was a mistake as well. I experimented with my closet temperature a bit too much early on, trying for...

My a few of the Net Pots have some roots about to touch the water in the reservoir.. Some of the pots don't have any signs of roots yet... I'll tell you what...I'm learning a lot of what not to do on my first grow...lol. Thanks for writing, P

Thanks for the reply my friend... The Airpump I have should be fine. (Pump is made by Sunleaves, SDA500: pumps 28 gal/hr) It's the pump Stealth Hydro gives you with their bubbleponics kit. It comes with a 12 inch airstone. I wouldn't think this would be the cause of my troubles but who...

Thanks for checking out this post.... I need help ladies/gentlemen. I'm about to do my first drain and replenish tomorrow (14 days). I have noticed Roseman's photos during his grow stages and my plant's growth rate is nothing compared to his at 14 days. My plants look weak and 2, I believe...
