Im growin 6 different, good, bag seeds, have not found anyone to let me order seeds to their place yet. Im way to paranoid to order them to the place im growin.... Id really like some real seeds next time though.

Question, what do you guys flush with? between week 6 and 7 foxfarm says "nutrient flush" now can you just flush with water or do i need to order some clenser stuff? How long do you flush for?

ive allways taken my plants out and then rinced my bucket/tub with straight water... i try to never use chemicals

Yea i hear ya there

Heres a new pic of my babies, they just started to take off again after i cut them up a bit. i left 2 just growin normally and topped other 4, so i get 4 buds/branches per plant.

I'm growing the free ones I got with my order of Ice from BC Seeds. Only had one of the Ice sprout and it was a male. But all three free ones that sprouted were female. And all are a different strain and don't know what they are.

Hey Roll, plants look good. Same here I just rinse with tap water.

plain water sounds good to me. Now do you just spray them off in bathtub or sometin? Or do you just put water in the container with no nutes for a while?

I dip them in clean water and run some down through the top also.

Yea i just had them in a clean water container, for a fwe hrs. They are growing so dam fast....Im goin to start flowering sunday......Yessssss

Sounds good man.

Res change... plants were slowly showing signs of nute burn so i changed the res... i added 2.5 gallons of distilled water, all three foxfarm nutes, and some "Awesome Blossoms" nutes...the awesome blossoms nutes are new from the hydro shop... im using it in substitute of the cha ching and other foxfarm nutes

ph is 5.8 and ppm is 1420

I have the really small bottle in the bottom left corner of the pic

girlfriend counted 8 super colas, 100 medium sized buds, and few handfuls of small buds ... im hoping this new stuff will make these buds grow bigger... so far i can see a dozen nuew buds a day but they arent growing as fast as i anticipated... would like to get an oz. dry ... realistically i would be happy with 1/2 oz

tomorrow is first day of flowerin, so exciting...... l

looking great green earth, let me know how the "Awesome Blossoms" work.

Plants looking great. I bet you can almost taste it now huh?

i tasted a bud from a lower broken branch that was not ready yet... it was really harsh and had no good flavor... maybe it will taste better when its mature

yo greenearth, i was using awesome blossoms, and either i had soe sorta nute lock or something with my Potassium or Phosophorus (getting grey spots on leaves, and they felt real brittle) until traded out the awesome blossoms for something called Bloombastic.

Awesome Blossoms = 2-11-11

Bloombastic = 0-20-21

Bloombastic also has stronger and more minor nutes, check it out.

If you want a great guide to tell you how much nutes and everything you need during each stage of the plants life check out www.hidhut.com and find under nutrients Technaflora's Recipe For Success.
it did wonders for me and its my first time ever doing this shit! i ordered my 2nd batch already just today

oh yeah and the best part is that it gives you everything the plant needs and only costs $29.95 and lasts for an entire harvest.......

I checked the water this morning and it was running a bit low... ph was 6.0 and the ppm was 1500 .. so i added 1/3 of a gallon of distilled water and brought the water level up, ppm dropped to 1300 and i adjusted my ph to 5.6

EDIT: When and how do i know what to do when its time to harvest... Ive heard that i need to look for amber spots in the hairs which i believe to be the white hairs in the bud area. When the hair is 10% amber then i need to flush with pure water, no pH +/- and no nutes. Then harvest time will be two weeks after i flush.

What do you all know
