Yeah overnuting can suck ass badly.

Speaking of which I've just nuted my plants for the first time today.
And it's been 79 days since I stuck the seeds on the soil.
If you look at the pictures in this post you'll see why.
It's always the same shit when switching from fluros to HPS during a grow.
Growth rate goes through the roof, and suddenly the root system cannot keep up with demand for nutes because the concentration of nutes is too low for that speed.
So I've nuted 1/2 stength for starters, they'll get more in a few days when the soil has dried up a bit.
I'm thinking I'm adding a bit of epsom salt during that next watering, the new growth is too yellow.

Here look, that white thing on top of the plants are green smoking joint papers, 4 1/4 inch wide and appearantly alot more reflective then the plants.
This makes sense, the plant actively absorbs light! :


And look at the big cohones on this guy, blowing his wad all over the place :


Next update in a few days. I'm dying to make some pics of seeds growing.

p.s. : What the hell is wrong the the GC picture gallery these days? It says my pics are DOWNsized to 1280x960 but when I click on the pic best I get is like 640x480.
