I was simply saying that YOU were correct, feed nutes till you get minor runoff and I only check ph if there is a problem
I have heard that the yield is less with CMH but that the quality is better, but this is also one of the reasons for the infrared experiment cause I believe heat is what makes the difference, I could be wrong, but we will see???
I flush everytime I water and I ph it to 5.8 (similar to the ph of rain) hence my method is called making it rain it is detailed in my calling all noob growers thread (sig link)

Hmm that is interesting, I am doing something like that - Every 4 to 5 days I am watering the pot size in PH'd water and then the following day water the pot size in PH water w/nutes....then wait 4-5 days (whichever day they dry out first) and repeat..Treating each plant individualy based on needs but that is basically the rotation I got going right now...some are more thirsty/hungry then others especially cause I got about 10 different strains right now :0 - I will have to dig it up in your 100+ page thread thanks

I'm subbed for this one. I have a CMH journal going as well. I'm only a few weeks in. I'm at 400CMH now and will be adding a second into the growzilla when I flip the lights Aug 15th.

has been a week since the 1st one was put in dirt (which is when I start my count)
you will see that they loved getting rained on (soil is almost dry, one more day) they are starting on the 3rd node and 2nd node is growing it's 3 fingers also the internodal spacing is less than 1/2 inch
they are still on 16/8 and the light is still at 32 inches
#4 is still playing catch up (has not had it rain yet) but is doing great

just so everyone knows I am not feeding nutes at this stage (there are plenty in the soil for the first several weeks)
you must make it rain first, this flushes out any excess nutes in the medium
then you feed adding nutes back in, the plant will not use all of them hence the rain to wash them out
now I should say that some add nutes to the last bit of water when it rains, but I do not do this

No I want to wrap the little stems with tin foil in the shape of little satilite dishes so they can suck the photons right out of the airROTFLMFAO! And you need to get some foil on the walls for the light!!

I read one this morniong that said!
advice on growing from seed outdoors?
We are super-newbies at this
. My hubby had collected a dozen seeds or so and we planted them in a long pot outside using a good quality soil and compost. 6 of the seeds took but after about 5 weeks the plants are still very small (between 3-5 inches tall). Should they be bigger by now? Starting to panic because we live in Canada and only have another 6 weeks of truely hot weather. Indoors is not an option for us. I am going to transfer them to a larger pot and didn't know if I should do anything special with the soil we will be adding. Other than fertilizer do we really need to do anything fancy like cloning or pollinating because that is way over heads being our first try. Any advice is appreciated - thanks.

I pointed her to riddles noob thread and told her to start there and then read everything in his sig link. Then I told her it looked like she was not gonna make it before winter.
