White Widow x Big Bud 400w First Timer

  1. yeah man i used a mh, def wasnt the best it could be because i only have the cheapo ipower bulbs that only pur out 35k lumens, im going to be upgrading to 55k mh/hps bulbs next go around. i hope i see a nice increase

     
  2. The thing I get dealing with dif strains at the same time is that they all ask for dif strengths, every time my girls start yellowing I always up the nutes, I'm using coco also as well as hydro,day or two always comes good,I like to push them so I get tip burn maybe little taco back off a little and should be perfect.
    We'll my power bills been ok not to high, I always watch how I use my cycles, make the lights work together with dif cycles. I wouldn't worry about going from a 400w to a 600w.
     
  3. i tried doing the same, she started to get yellow and i add nutes, and it ends up burning the tips but the leaves never turn dark green...is that possibly bad PH? i dont know what my PH is, i dont have test strips, i just use tap water and let it sit for over 24 hours before i mix the nutes and water them
     
  4. i havnt posted any updates lately because im too embarrassed for you guys to see this thing the way it sits :-( the thing i dont understand is i feed both the big plant, and the two clones the same exact water, and the clones are nice and dark green but the big "mother" is all pale green/yellow, i just cant figure it out
     
  5. Soil? I had the same issue with my bagseed.... But my new seeds are in a diff soil and more lights haha. Haven't given sweet fa mutes and they are singing a long

  6. Oh yeh, that's like cooking a steak without a fry pan, def need to check your ph. Mate I always have 2 ph pens,1 as back up, think I paid $8 for it. My ph from the tap is 7-7.2, you will get lock out over 6.6, google the chart u will see. also I was using cheap 2part nutes, I was getting same never lush green, then I changed to canna much better but I was still getting little dif, so the last month I spent the $s on advance nutrients and I can't believe how much better,real lush green healthy looking girls, I use 3 part in my hydro, and I use 2 part jungle juice for coco, and in both grows the girls are 50% better.
    At the end of the day your only going to get out of it what u put in, if u get everything working correct it will show on the final product.
