My first grow

Yeah I know, I think it's cause of the super high temps. I just got them under control a couple days ago. Any idea on the deficiency?

I thought 5000k would be good for vegging and home depot was out of 6500k today or I would have got those. Would it be better to just use the 4 5000k instead of adding the 4 2700's? For
Vegging I mean?

Of course they were out of the 6500k's lmao, seems folks in your area been hitting up the depot! If worse comes to worse you could try a buisness or electronic supply recyclers in your area, someone should be trying to promote cfl's in your area for there energy savings comapred to reg bulbs im thinking lol!

Took some pics over to the plant hospital and it seems my soil is too hot! So today I will be transplanting to some weaker potting soil I have. Hope she recovers!

What type of soil do you have?

MG Organic Choice. Transplanted into some generic weaker soil and she's looking much better!!

Put a little fan in the grow box and switched the lights to 18/6. Temps staying right under 80 how long till I should switch to flowering? Any opinions? Having trouble posting pics but I will try again soon! And if I take a whiff I can smell that smell we all love

Why are you so desperate to flower? And can you not get your hands on some ffof?

Not desperate to flower. Im just worried if I veg too long when I flower it will outgrow the pc case. And I haven't had a chance to go look. The nearest town that would have it is 45 minutes away and I've been working.

Cant order it online? Or dont trust online shopping?

u should still get the 6500k an u can do what u did there an have mix spectrum for veg the 6500k an the 2700k that seems to be a good way

dude it will b a while till u can flower like a month min just depends on how ur plant dose an u should lst if ur using a pc box an topping of ur plant an u still can get a good yield with the lights u have

When should I start LST? I've read at around the time of 3rd node? And when can I do topping? I've read about it but I still like to ask questions to make sure I wasn't confused or something.

And I had the mixed spectrum in the old grow box. I can only fit 4 cfls in there now. And I could order it online but it's expensive as hell after shipping.

After re-reading some topping and LST articles it seems I can do both very soon if not now. What do you guys think? She's still recovering from the nute burn from before. Here's some pics to help out.

to early give it a week then start some lst i top at the 4th or 5th node then lst right after

Awesome man. Thanks that's perfect.

I know this is a hard to answer, vague question, but how much could I expect to yield with LST, top, and scrog? I was thinking 1/2-3/4 oz? Even if I only yielded 1/8 I would be stoked!

Well my girlfriend is going into labor so I won't be home for 2-3 days. She was watered right before we left so should she be okay?

CONGRATS, MAN! I hope everything goes well during labor.

Woo! 7 lbs 3 oz haha. Think I will be investing in a 150w hps light. How many plants could be grown under that light? I was thinking 2 max?
