have you atleast tried ph testing after you add nutes? its not so dark once its in the little ph est tube. my water starts at about 7 and ends up under 4 after nutes, then i ph it up.

i started 6 Jackie-o seeds 3 days ago, they are about a half centimeter tall now in their little cups, today i started 7 twog, 5 like i always do and 2 in wet towels in ziplock baggie. gonna post some pics of them, and the girls tomorrow, also need to remember to post pics of the ph tests if the dsi will pick up the light colors. whats the ph suposed to be, by the time anyone reads this ill have looked it up,, but this is also going to help me next go around, by havin all the relevant info and links on one place, lol. im feeling rambly...

i need to set up a perpetual, but space is my largest concern, i have the tent these are in, a separate shell the same dimensions of the current grow, but thats too big, dont have room for another that size, i need a way to set it up, im going to put up some links see if you think these will work, gonna post some links.

, this one has the smallest tent i could find. i just need it for veging though... and the light was cheap as hell, probably gonna be some catch. these are just my first ideas,

have got to get this, cant keep the window open with a hose to control temps all year long... http://htgsupply.com/Product-GrowBright-6in-Inline-Fan-&-Charcoal-Filter-Combo.asp

this is more like what im thinking though honestly, this tent http://htgsupply.com/Product-Grow-Tent---Size-S-20-x-36-x-64---Silver-Lined.asp#
http://htgsupply.com/Product-HTGSupply-250-watt-Metal-Halide-Grow-Light.asp for veg lighting, or possibly some t5's i dont know much about them though honestly. i just need to be chopping 2-4 plants every month. plain and simple, im gonna have about 8 hundred to spend on this upgrade with tax money. also would really really like to find some ver, VERY . very simple diy hydro. to veg and flower hydro, using my tent, another smaller tent, adn the 400 watt i have + 1 onther light setup.

here comes a bunch of pics, first id the c-red, still havent gotten the claws worked out i dont think, new growth has slowed alot, so i cant really tell, gonna try to get a soil ppm meter soon, 18.00 @ hydro store in town.. has the 4 dominant colas, but i wish i had lst'd them all, took some close ups of the yellowing leaves, the ones im thinking about pruning, is this normal yellowing? or nute related yellowing and bleaching? also bleaching effect. o before i forget again. the lights just came on like 10 mins prior to the pics, in a few hours, like 1 maybe the leaves will be up and the temps will be down.
the pics i took of the bottom shoots, can these be cloned? i would like to clone some so i am guarenteed a few females in the next run, since the people that tell me they have clones either dont call back, or m yride flakes out.. switching comps so i can upload all the pics at one time hopefully.

the labella strawberry, like i said i believe this has to be a sat dominate, it is so much taller, thinner, lighter green, and the buds are developing much more slowly than the other 3 strains. i mean erven the f'd up bagseed has more production114.JPG111.JPG121.JPG109.JPG108.JPG107.JPG106.JPG122.JPG110.JPG116.JPG118.JPG120.JPG119.JPG113.JPG115.JPG112.JPG123.JPG117.JPG

ill have to recopy the creds from the other comp cause i screwed it up, think i can just edit the previous post instead of doing it all over again.


tell me what i need to be doing different or better. i know im screwing up but this is first indoors so i expect to mf up

Hey Convict,
If it was me, I would remove all those yellow leaves. Looks like you are on the good side of whatever was wrong.

am back, watered today, just a gallon for the 4 plants, seems like a very small amount of water for 4 plants, upped the nutes all for the next batrch, 3ml grow, 4ml bloom, 6 ml advance nutrients bigbud, ( cause it said 2 ml/liter, 3 liters /gal, 6 ml. but not watering with this for another 2-3 days, will the fan leaves that have yellowed come back? they look pretty pitiful.
