Yeah. ween then up to a good sized dose slowly. little at a time. better to little than to much. BUT if you do stub you toe on the ferts you should be able to fix it with a flush when you see leaves burning. Don't sweat. Soil is pretty forgiving.

What percent of the recommended dose of TB is 50ML?

If it is about 1/4 or < the reccomended dose then, yes that sounds ideal.

Good luck.

You may also want to flush with PHed H2O about every 5th or 7th watering or so. This will cear out any salt build-ups. Then start the nutes back for the next 5 or 7 waterings.

Your sure? That sucks man. O' well. Hopefull the WW will be killer. You got more seeds to start after the WW is done though.

Now all your attention can go the WW I bet it will be dank.

funny story now that I think of this. started out with about 4 plants. Knew one would def. be fem b/c of the seed that i got from attitude. I had 3 boys all died to leave what a lonely White "Widow" plant.. hahahaha

but here are the pictures for her not best yet or anything. started nutes today 50ml/gal mix up and about a cup of it or so and shes good to go. will water and watch for any nute burn and such. hopefully it goes smoothly and she takes it quiet nice and starts flowering like crazy!!!

Hey fellas and ladies. I recently switched from 293w of cfl to 150hps. Sweet no more moving stuff around, nice.
But I notice the crystal difference since switching, before my babies had crazy crystals on the leafs and after the
switch I have seen a major decrease in the crystals. I know that the spectrum from cfls are better for crystals and
quality. So I added in two 26w bulbs, daylight, to kind of broaden the spectrum in my cab. My question is should i
use the blue spectrum or switch it to warm spectrum. Does anyone have pics of great results with the combination
of hps and cfls?

I couldnt agree mor e get the light closer and yse lighting 18/6 otherwise you will stress the plant and might get hermies lol
Going 12/12 from seed doesn''t cause hermies! Search for '12/12 from seed grows' and ye' shallt be enlightened!

Also...Why would he switch to 18/6 when he Is in the flowering cycle??? That WILL make hermies!

Sorry for interjeting Shef.

Cool, have you noticed the difference with and with out the cfls. Do you have pics of the setup?
this is my first run with the hps the other one was all cfl untill last week of flower heres a pic

cant see the hps on this pic but you can tell its glow overpowering the blue cfls they actually make a shadow under the hps
