a) I don't want to use pesticides on things I'm smoking, you know? I tried the method cantharsis (sp?) has stickied, with the garlic/clove/soap/etc mixture, but it hasn't worked. The bugs still eat away at the fan leaves, which leaves me concerned about the buds, if they ever actually sprout.
b) I would love to put them under an HPS or CFL fixture, but I don't have $175+ laying around that I can spend on it. I have a lamp somewhere from when we had a rubber tree or something in the house, but I believe it's a flourescent light, which wouldn't work if I recall correctly, yeah?
c) I'm planning to mix in some peat moss with the soil to get it back down, gonna do that tomorrow. I'll add the peat moss and then flush, and then check back in on them on Wednesday and run some more tests.
Any other assistance you can give me on getting these guys to flower would be lovely.
I didn't plan on using any more flowering fert on them because I don't want to burn the roots or raise the pH further, but with the way it's been going, sooner or later I might be forced to. It's hard to tell.
