So, I'm pretty new to this. I've helped friends in the past.. So this is my first setup. 8x2x15 1000w mh/hps it's on a light rail mover, dimible ballast . Phresh carbon filter. Smart pots. I'm using coir for substrate. I've germed, lost a couple, germed some more. Now I have three going strong with more to come.. Any advice?
nice. theyre going to grow like crazy under that source of energy. move the pots a bit closer to the light for now
See, I had jus moved it off of them a lil to.. I have the light dimmed down 50% and its like 4feet off of them..
i only suggested it becuase theyre stretching. theres not wrong with them stretching, theyre just positioning themseleves how they like to the light source
Yea I plan on doing it tonight. I'm putting them in 5gallon smart pots. Yea that one that's really light is weird she was the one that took along time to germ I thought it was a dud but my girl said keep it another day or so. It ended sprouting a tap root.. But now she looks like this.. Maybe jus a weak plant. They r all on a feeding schedule already. I think she's jus off.. No worries though.. I'm setting up a tent next week. Going to do 10 auto flowers. 5 dinafem white widow, 5 g13 Pineapple Express..
Well since I'm in coco.. I'm basically running a drain to waste.. So I'm using general hydroponics synthetic nutrient flora duo it's a 2 part. Right now I'm adding a teaspoon of each per gallon every watering. Which is basically every 48 hours now intill I repot. I've been taken advice from a fellow blade and doing my research, and I've had fantastic results so far..
In coco I guess once root system is established over feeding is basically impossible.. So I saturate evenly till there's run off then jus let them dry out. Which is taking about 48 hours. Once I repot I'm hoping I only have to feed 2 a week.
So I topped 3 of them on the 26th here are some close ups of new growth And these 2 haven't been topped yet I'm letting them grow up a node higher then other 3 being that they where smaller then the others..
oh so if i use coconut fiber i have to supply them nutes throughout their life? your plants look amazing, even the lighter one.
It's u der indoor grow journals... Labeled ice bomb.. All the info formation I used is I their posted by SCMC.. You will see them if u read my thread.. There is a lot of Great information in there!
