My story: Hi guys, i've been growing for about a month now, (i hadent realize how long i've been doing this untill now) anyways, i have 2 plants of bagseed, they mean shit to me, the bud was alright but I don't really care about flowering it because I just planeted 4 masterlow, 2 about a week ago, 1 sprouted about 3 days ago, and one late germinated seed is going in tonight. I have been growing in miniture sandwitch sized tupper ware containers, I KNOW that they are way too small... but as my debit card is in the mail and im out of my bank's region I can only construct a flowering pot out of, cardboard box and black plastic bag... only problem with that is that I'm affraid im going to drown my plants. I also have some clear plastic drawars drawrs I could fill with soil (of which I have 4lbs or 8 quarts of general potting soil, test plants loved it). There is a grow supply shop in town, im thinking of picking up some guano and some white lable cloning hormone, but thats a little later on. My questions: how much soil should i use to grow 4 MasterLows which is most important in a pot: depth, length & width, as much soil as posible is a general blend of guano cool or is there something cheaper and better what is the best way to stop light form escaping your grow room My Pics: 1. general grow room w/ 150W HPS, 2 test plants standing on a plastic drawr which i could use as a flowering pot 2. close up of 2 test plants, i've tried LST which I i don't think im good at (could be that im using too small of a pot and they are stunted) and Topping, which i don't think im good at either, which node do you cut at? 3. a 'human light' picture in my messy room 4. anothre of pictrue 3
I may not be right, but ive read clear contaiers that you use to grow in kill roots due to the light shinning through.
You're right man they do kill the roots... Those plants look a lil unhealthy man where do you have them what's the setup?
those plants are some bag seed I don't care about, they will never flower (cause Lowryder is grown for 60 days under 18/6 the whole time) the setup is about to change, it will be a trash can and it'll have a 150W HPS on the cover... I am using those plants to learn, I am going to try cloning them, just to see if i can do it. what would you say about the flowering pot???
Im in the same boat as you im growing bag seed for my first grow before i order some ice . But i wont consider anything learned untill i do a good job with the bag seed first . I figure i must cralw be4 i walk ,good luck
