thanks dude your grow looks pretty awesome CFL too huh? looks like I can learn alot off your posts as well.... alot more to come I hope...
added 42 watt 6500k today, Question how often should I be water'n these girls and when is it safe to feed them some low veg nutes....... anyone? thanks more pics coming soon.
first thing it is best to water your plants in the morning when ur lights are going on, not at the end of the day. and do not even think about using nutes till the 3rd week it will be to much for the young plants to handle
Yeah man only 125watts of CFL's going to to keep an eye on your thread as well how are they doing so far?
Thanks for the watering info and the nutes info guys, more pictures to come. Yeah blunt once lights are here something like 300 cfl watts 6500K hope they take off again in growth Also placing order for dual 200 watt 2700k For Flowering stage First CFL Grow really curious as to out come. Anyways thanks guys for stopping by Thanks guys I'll update with some picutures later today
Looking very nice man =] How old are they from sprout? Mine are at 14 days from sprout, 2 days flower Ive got a nice little setup that im updating, check it if u like in my sig Post some pics of your setup bro? +Rep mate, good luck. One love.
Looking good so far. But i hate to tell you this but MG soil is a no-go for me and many many others. You should try picking up some FFOF soil it's like the kobe-bryant of soils, you cant go wrong with it. Time-release agents will screw you over eventually. What's the PH of your run-out? That last plant has slight nute-burn.. but im sure you'll be alright Keep an eye on that plant. Cheers mate
FFOF huh? lol the kobe-bryant of soils, ha I'll have to check it out for the next seedlings and transplant, Time-release agents will screw you over eventually. ^^ yikes.... maybe I should transplant different soil I am going to soon anyways watcha think? Thanks Jspec2ner Nute burn from the MCGROW I bet some signs on two of the ladies. One worse then the other pictures follow all plants lookin alot better this morning ps run off is like 8.0 out here sometimes 7.0 tap water right? here some updates... all girls pair one on the right has worse signs of nitrogen burn maybe??? up close Another new growth is coming in nice I got the ph at a soild 6.5 now this one is loving it... any tips? thanks for stopping by ps I could use help finding a better img host I keep running out of space with img shack crap any help in the right direction would be nice, Thanks peacee...
looking well for a start, i would change to a HID bulb asap to see max growth. photobucket will let you upload more photos than in your wildest dreams!
thx HID bulb? explain like in a car?? I got dual 120 watt 9'000 lumes 6500k CFL coming in acouple days, HID meaning? I have High output running right now, 4x26 watt 6500k 1x42 watt 6500k dual 2x200 watt 2700k +one 120 watt 6500k for flower on the way
High Intensity Discharge. Yes like in a car only with a greater wattage ( 250+ as to 35 - 50w in a car) You maybe running all those bulbs and out putting 20000 lumes if your very lucky. One 250W HPS ( High Pressure Sodium) bulb will output close 30000 lumes. I run 1 400w HPS and 1 400 MH which makes about 80000 lumes in a 1.2m x 1.2m x 1.6m tent and i feal i could do with more light. So aim for a HID bulb!
I will look into HID lights but I can't run HPS right now until I get a better cooling system. I have 400 MH and 150 mh to hot for my space. Anyways going CFL is whats going to be for now.....If someone could show me some cheap cooling ideas for a 150 watt- 400 watt mh lights would help alot maybe? Thanks.
Be creative think outside the box, a bit of tin and a glass tube can end up better than any 'factory' bought cooler.
