I upped my PK dosage last watering and they are puking out new pistils all over!

Had a bit of an issue, the power tripped the other night and I think they may have had 24 hour darkness. Fucking hope they don't herm on me lol.

hi, i'm in the sw of UK so thought would be good idea to post here :) i'm in the midst of my first grow and lovin it ;) my five bf blue cheese plants have been vegging under a cheap 90w ufo ina small cupboard in my bedroom since the first of december, originally i was planning to flower them with this too but since reading up on here loads i decided to wait til i could afford a 600wHps and a 120x120x180 tent to stick in my garage..

Atlast i'm ordering it tomorrow so should have in by the weekend :) my plants are going to hopefully love it as much as i intend to!

the garage is not at all insulated and at the mo its really cold in there , i was wondering if i might need to buy a heater for when the lights are off ??

Hi guys, This is my first time on here and first time growing weed, I have bought some short Ryder seeds and have tryed a few now with no success! Iv just germinated my 3rd one using the paper towel method.. It cracked after 30 hours. I have now got it in a plastic cup in good germinating soil, Iv put it in a lil propagator and put it in my airing cupboard with a little cfl above it! Will this work.... Any help and tips would be great coz don't really no what I'm doin but don't won't to spend alot of money, cheers

I was just about to post saying to pavement "a little investment goes a long way".

To be honest mate, you aren't gonna grow jack under one CFL and if your airing cupboard is anything like mine, it's probably way to hot. Just build yourself a little cab if space is an issue and invest in a few more CFLs. If you want to grow some good weed, go with a 250W aircooled HPS. You could probably get all that for under £100.

Cheers for the reply wowgrow, well when the plant sprouted I was planning on getting more cfls but I was wondering if these conditions Iv got it in in the airing cupboard would be good enough to sprout the lil fucker! I'm doin a step at a time..

Cheers mate i think i'll go with your way, ive seen some of the lovely plants you've grown don and i wouldnt mind some of them myself. At the moment im using 2ml per litre of terra bloom in 2nd week of flowering going into the 3rd, im about to up it to 3ml per litre and im worried about how much pk to add. Reckon i should start the PK at 1ml per litre and work up week by week? thanks again
aye should be fine man, thanks i use allsorts of stuff on mine but pk is a good solid performer.

Lol, detox for a week or so, just to give your body time to repair. You can binge for a while, your body is pretty good at healing itself but if you don't give it any time rest, your gonna fuck yourself up ha.

no real secret to it man, i use coco, feed every watering dont have any run off ever. i run canna A&B/ all the way through at pretty much full strength till i boost with PK 13/14 and atami bloombastic in alternate, i generally drop the A&B by 4ml each when i boost. i foliar feed humboldt's purple maxx every now and then until about week 5. occaisionally i put a bit of humboldts gravity in in the last few weeks to satck some weight on them. ill put a bit of cannazyme in now n then as i re use the coco.

best advice i can give is learn to read your plants, i never ph anything or check EC/ppm just keep to the recommended doses ish and if you see the tips of your fans burning you know to back off a bit.
