I HAVE FINALY DECIDED TO MAKE A JOURNAL. IT HAS BEEN JUST OVER ONE WEEK SINCE THEY CRACKED THE SURFACE. MY BOX IS 25"WIDE X 16"DEEP X 36" TALL. MY LIGHTING CONSISTS OF 3 26W 6K CFLS AT THE MOMENT. I AM USING SUPERSOIL POTTING MIX AND PERALITE AT A 60-40% RATIO. TEMPS TEND TO GET A LITTLE LOW SOMTIMES IN TO THE MID 60'S I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH HUMIDITY BEING TOO LOW. RIGHT NOW THE PLANTS ARE IN 12OZ CUPS SO I HAVE TO WATER ABOUT EVERY 2 DAYS. EVERY TIME I WATER I USE 150ML OF PH 6.5 TAP WATER. MY PLAN IS TO TRANSPLANT SOMTIME IN THE NEXT WEEK OR SO. I WILL TRY TO UPDATE THIS ON A WEEKLY BASIS. PLEASE FILL FREE TO POST.
HERE ARE SOME PICS FOR YA.

I TRANSPLANTED THE TWO MYSTERY SEEDS IN TOO THERE 1 GALLON HOME FOR THE NEXT 3-4 WEEKS. THEY ARE ALL SHOWING SIGNS OF NITROGEN DEF. WHEN I TRANSPLANTED I ALSO WATERED WITH 1/4 STRENGTH FISH EMUSION (5-1-1). WILL BE TRANSPLANTING THE OTHER TWO IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS (I NEED TO GET MORE POTS). I ADDED ONE MORE 26W CFL TO THE ROOM. I NEED TO WORK ON SOME SORT OF REFLECTOR FOR THESE TO PUSH THE LIGHT DOWN TO THE PLANTS. IF ANYBODY HAS SOME IDEAS PLEASE LET ME KNOW! I HAVE 2 CLAMP LAMPS BOTH WITH A Y-SPLITER.

Looks like you got a handle on it for sure!

THANKS ROCKY, THIS IS ONLY MY SECOND GROW SO THERE IS STILL LOTS TO LEARN. I HAVE LEARNED THAT THE SOIL I AM USING DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH NITROGEN IN THE MIX. I MAY ADD A LITTLE SOMETHING TO THE MIX NEXT TIME.

I'm on my first grow and started with Miracle grow before finding a hydro shop and switching to fox farms ocean forest. What a difference. It's amazing to me how many little tips and tricks make so much difference.

Are you PH'ing the water? I'm a firm believer in that.

KushMaster85 · #6 12-09-2007, 09:56 AM

I REALY HAVENT HAD TO PH IT BECAUSE THE WATER IS ABOUT 6.6 (PERFECT) i HAVE NOT NEEDED TO USE PH UP OR DOWN YET!
