i did, i read it stoned, and now i'm replying stoned. damn. haha but yeah GL with it

[kRaZy tOkA IVXX]

its driving me crazy why it is still yellow!

[thomasman]

Ok I'd like to reply before i get high. haha that ryhymed. But anyways. I'd say you might have transplant shock maybe? And because of taht it delays the grow process and makes the plant appear to do nothing. I'd say wait a couple of days to see what happens. Then if everything is ok, soil, nutes and such. everything should be ok and i assume that it should turn green.


Also do you know the temps in the Computer box?

To me it looks like that is from nutes or light/heat stress.

I still have some research to do though as i too am learning how to grow right now.


I'll check back.

so i'm in for the grow.

Can you post pictures of your homemade scrubber? I want to see how you made yours for this setup.

You've got a nice little grow going. Very stealth and clever.

Day 19





Temp - 75* F 24/7 and that is around the lights.
Soil - Organic Mixture of
- 5 parts pete moss
- 3 parts perilite
- 2 parts mushroom compost.
Water - Tested to 6.5PH with strips and digi test. There are also no added ferts as of now put into the soil free mixture.

Observations: In the last Day or so I noticed that not only are the 2nd set of fan leaves have matured to a good size, but also the 2nd set of 4 leafs are also starting to say hello. The greeness on the new growth also looks pretty healthy.

My plans for the next few days is to go over to a hydroponic store buy some nutes. Go to the hardware store buy a few new lights not only for Flowering spectrum but also a few to help my lil girl along as of right now.

Thank you very much for your interests any advice or comments will be taken deeply into consideration since this is my first actual attempt after years of reading, and suggestions are always welcome!

Im off to work now so ill have an update some time later.

Inspiration - and Im using Home Depot stuff too!

GL on all of it - I'll keep a watch, and I think when my young ones get to sprout and a little bigger, gonna xplant them into some soil free. Seems to do a bit better.

Unless I missed - what bulbs you using?

[kRaZy tOkA IVXX]

they are the 60w 14w cfl conversion. it still produces the same amount of lumens as a round fluro bulb would but only using 14w of power.

Day 24


So it looks a little droopy today due to over watering last night. Ive already dealt with the problem I am just waiting for it to show effects. Also the 3rd set of leafs have began to grow.

Have you added nutrients yet? You might want to flush out the soil nice and good with some fresh pH adjusted water. That will get just about all the bad shit thats in there, out. If you dont know how to flush, post it up and I or someone else on here can help you out. Once that is all said and done, keep a very close eye (probably what youre doing already) on your plants. Once the soil starts to dry out you should add a very mild solution of nutrients. There are tons of different kinds of nutes out there so pick what you think is best. 1/4 strength should be good. Your plants will show how they take to the nutes, if it gets better, stick with what youre doing for a little while. As time goes on you can add a bit more nutes. That should hopefully get you close to where you should be. After that you can watch for more signs not worrying about if you over nuted or anything else and you can get what you need to help it out. You can get a cheap pH drop test kit from the hydro shop that can save your plants life. Also pick up some superthrive. Add 1 drop to your gallon of water. Only give nutes ever 3-5 waterings unless plant shows signs of need.

dont worry bud thanks for the consideration. that was 2 days after i added the first dose of first i believe and i over watered to flush it just alittle bit. I will take pics tonight of how beautiful it looks now after i fixed a few things almost day 35

[tigss]

plant looks almost dead :'( might be worth restarting unless u can create a miracle and whats the point of growing in a pc case i understand the fans are already there but unless its like a server case there wouldnt be much room :\ im using a 6ft wide by 2ft deep closet working great for me my plants r about the same height but mine have too much ph but will be fixed shortly bought some ph down and some natural spring water

[kRaZy tOkA IVXX]

that was almost 12 days ago. i havent been able to shoot some pics for an update but i am going to today.

Day 35

So its Day 35, and just a few days ago i began training my little girl with some LST, with the training for now she is only a few inches tall but very wide spread. as of now i notice 5 possible budsites.

I believe i am going to veg all this week and get the max amount of growth this week as i possibly can then switch the lighting to 12/12 next sunday.

I am going to be visiting the hydroshop for some flowering nutes, does anyone have any suggestions i would really like to try out some of the Advanced Nutrient brand nutes. The PH Down from them has worked amazingly and i notice the rate of growth increasing daily. here are some pictures i snapped last night.

Day 36

I went to the hardware store and bought some new 2700k lights for when i decide to flower in a few weeks. I also fimmed 4 bud sites and im waiting to see what happens hopefully i could see the new growth tips within 3 more days.

I am also trying to construct some type of Screen at the moment and cant really decide what to make it out of :-\ .
