Not so much weening as a smooth transition. If you stopped giving the veg nutes, then start giving it bloom nute. The Shultz you give at 1/4 strength, the muskie you can give at full power. Your spoons will be just fine for measuring. For a little extra cash you can pick up a 2 part organic feeding program. Technaflora makes a product called pure vida, you can use it as a 2 part or a one part feeding system. Its cheap and works well.

Good luck!

Where do you get this? Plus is it usa? seems like whats in usa isnt in canada. Fox farms are no wheres in my city. Thx for the help man + rep

No, it made in Canada, at least I think it is. Can you order any nutes online? +rep back at ya.

Yeah I even found a retailer for them in my town, except i think for now im just going to go with what i bought. I can buy online but its nice to support the local businesses. Except for a hid light, 1000watt hps full set up costs 750!

So here is a pic of day 61, and my soil that i used. Finally i got my pictures able to upload, my phones being a bastard. I have realized im giving my plant wind burn so im gona have to put the intake on a timer because it almost blows directly at the plant, got it diverted a bit but still not healing.

How did you divert the airflow? Do you have an ocelating fan? If not, there cheap and do a good job. Lookin good!

I just used a peice of paper. Ill show some pictures tomorrow. The budding is starting to take off. It really loved the mollasses i gave it with just water yesterday and taking another here tonight. Thx bro. happy growing

DAY 18 of FLOWERING
This pictures of yesterday (actually day 66). Its really starting to get skunky . Thinking about adding another exhaust fan for enough air flow for that carbon filter.

Loving it like my child, with some good care the dried leaves from wind burn are starting to look better. Starting run out of width room in the ol cabinet. Its only 14" WIDE . It will be my early veg cabinet for the future most definitely.

sub, +rep
Im on day 18 with Strawbury haze.

Hey and welcome welsh, Thank you, plus rep back. Do you have pictures of how yours are doing at day 18?

Here she is today 19 in flower just over 1 meter tall so she is tied down.







If you click on 2E in my sig it will take you to my journal.

budding very nicely for day 19, looks dope welsh. Your grow journal has many different harvests, just all in one eh.

Yes theres Trainwreak, Exodus Cheese & Strawbury Haze hope to have a male skunk on next veg round, for breeding with the clone only Cheese.

My buddy gave me this seed and was sold as kush, not a specific type just...... kush. Back in the day I was happy with getting weed with very general names like kush or skunk. Now im anoying all the dealers asking for specific info. No one knows jack!! Most of the time there just like " yeah man its some grade A shit". And im like oh but it looks like it was cut prematurely, lol. I think they liked me more when I just sniffed and squeezed checked the weed. I cant wait till I can reach my goal of providing enough smoke for myself that I dont have to deal with the these morons around my place. Plus I will be able to start to create a sense of knowledge of what each type of strain tastes and feels like.

Anyway so yeah i guess "mystery Jane" will not be as mysteries as I thought. Does it look like any particular Kush?

Iv never grow kush so Iv no idea, its hard to tell untill its in late flower even then its hard to tell.
You want to be cearful asking dealers questions most are just interested in your cash not the bud lol.
If I run out I go with out street weed is so bad these days wet, sprayed, premature & over priced as you know, home grown is so much better as we look for quality not how much profit can be made.

I know, i one time got a bag of weed that was so wet you could squeeze it and a little water would ooze out. Like WTF!?

lol anyway i have done again some reconstruction to my setup. DIY is the way to go and thats what i did with making my own reflector for my florescents. You would be suprised what all popsicle sticks and hotglue can do. Its easy to construct and is quite strong if done properly. I know its got tinfoil but i was told that it only creates hotspots for HIDs. The first sign of it burning my plant i'll just paint the tinfoil white. Thinking of doing it anyway because it does make it warmer which is what im fighting with on the upper part of my plant while it seems to stay cool at the bottom! Fustrating as fuck.

Well, if you want my opinion... I personally think you did a bad ass job here. I especially was impressed with your enginuity.. with the making of the frame for your CFL reflector. You did an excellent job on the frame.. and like I said before.. excellent thinking bro. Nice job man.. Your girls are looking lovely as well.

What strain are the ladies?

I too use CFL bulbs for my growing. I use to use HPS/MH lights... but I had a few issues with those lights. One being the heat that they put out... second would be the cost of running the lights. I mean yeah, they have their 'pro`s' and 'cons'.

Just like us.. who rather use CFL bulbs for growing. CFL bulbs also have their own drawbacks.. but they also have positive things about them too.

Each to their own eh? why it's a free world after all! hehehe.. I love America. If we could just legalize marijuana.. we'd be alright for sure.
Ya dig?

So you can't get the top part of your plants to stay cool enough eh? May I suggest something for to maybe consider trying? If the top upper parts of your plants are getting WAY warmer than the bottom part of your plants.. I would build a rack system.. mount the rack to your ceiling.. then go to wal-mart or something.. and buy yourself about 6 medium sized fans. Fabricate a mounting system so you can attach the fans evenly out up on the rack system you built. Use your imagination bro.

Peace bro

Yeah i actually painted the reflector white after the first day lol which got rid of the heat. It stays around 25 Celsius and 30 percent humidity. With the tinfoil i noticed my top colas pistils were getting burnt, a few were yellowish and shriveled. Which i will post pics of tomorrow. I only have 1 plant and its bagweed claimed to some kind of kush. I have enough circulation with a good sized fan blowing not directly at the plant.

I live in Canada and we were about to legalize it a while back and only to get the united states putting there nose in and saying it should stay illegal. Canada needs to grow some balls (no offense to you Americans). But I do believe we have both our countries going towards legalization very soon. .
Have you seen "the Union"? its an awesome documentary on Marijuana

The last picture is with one of the burnt top colas, you can see how the pistils are shriveled up and yellow. Hopefully heals quickly.. The rest of the plant looks nice and healthy. Oh am i excited!! Cant wait for her to look nice and hopefully dense. Its been a discovery show the whole way threw, my awesome hobby! Love the girl like its my kid.

Wutup kid seen u in ganjas mornin thread... Nice grow cuz... She looks real nice for real

thx Jammin screw, yeah i just wish the tops would look a little healthier.
