Newbie grow on the go

Ok guys so this is my first Post and first grow. Thee plants are about 3 months old if not a little older and they are small and nowhere near the size I want them to be At this stage. They do have some longish white furry hairs though. I have been using previously boiled water and baby bio every 2 weeks. What's going wrong. My light is only a small one from a fish tank 70w I think but it IS uv. Will upload some pics so u can see.....PLEASE HELP!!!!!! Thanks guys

you must increase the amount of proper light before it will do better.

For sure need more light even a floresant shop light would help pics and more info would help us help you. Good luck

How do I upload pics from my iphone

upgrade your light, upgrade your feed, what size of pots are they in and how tall are your plants? if there root bound they'll struggle to grow. and why are you boiling your water?

upgrade your light, upgrade your feed, what size of pots are they in and how tall are your plants? if there root bound they'll struggle to grow. and why are you boiling your water? my entire grow cycle takes about 3 months and my plants are always around 4 or 5 foot tall and yeild over 3 oz a plant.

Because I didn't think giving them tap water straight from the tap would be goo for them. My plants are tiny my friend around 1.5ft. I am thinking of starting again . What would you suggest my nessesities are before I start

more lights.. if you go to home depot there is do it yourself lamp cords for like 2 dollars and they also got splitters. then grab yourself a pack of 23-26 watt cfl, and wire up all them and go for it..

dont kill it

What are the best nutes to use without spending a small fortune lol.
Also I take it I need a ph testing kit?
My leafs are slightly yellow too... Is this a nitrogen difficiency or is it something else and if it is how do I resolve this

Get some pictures up or we cant really help you.

here are my plants ..... the small one next to the big(gish) one is only 2 weeeks younger... i know right!!


Wog-wan??

first off get bigger pots( bigger pots equals more root space equal more roots equals bigger plants), best lights you can afford, hps is always best but keep in mind they produce a lotta heat so you need extraction, nutes are relatively cheap, i used bio-bizz range for soil, all you need is a bottle of bloom and one of veg( bout 10 quid each for a litre) if you can afford it get a booster nute for halfway thru flowering pk 13/14 is good and probably the most commonly used.....and yeah yellow leaves tend to mean nitrogen deficency. your plants are lookin fine though mate, decent colur, maybe a bit 'leggy' but thats most probably due to your poor lights. i wouldnt bother starting again although if you can maybe take cuttings and veg them while you get sum new lights/nutes and then just flower the originals and begin again. its all a learning experience mate.

get a fan blowing on them as well, helps strengthen the stalks, improves air flow, reduces mould, diseases and bugs.

these plants are about 4 months old though and only a few white hairs are appearing. is this a sign of flowering? is it worth gently cutting the nutes to increase yeild or should i just leaf it ( haha ) for now as it is my first time and im not really clued up as you can tell.

a cold fan or a hot one or either?

cold fan
cheers fil7

Cheers fil and thanks to everyone who commented. Didn't expect to get such a good response. Thanks for all your help. will defiantly be asking more questions lol

Do I need to turn off the fan with the Light or do I keep fan on at all times.

dont boil ur water... it will kill off any of the oxygen in the water, what you should do is leave ur water to sit out for 24 hours with no top on it.... the cholrine will disappate and u will be good to go. (when they add cholrine to water it is originally in a gas state, it will revert back if u give it enough time)

also you can use coir fiber to filter ur water, it helps to remove excess calcium and some impurities.

Will make sure of that. Gott some water standing now lol. Do I keep fan on at alltimes. Plus I have always done a 12/12. What should I have the light doing at this stage?
