Power in my area went out last night for about 6 or 7 hours
good thing it was the dark part of the 12/12

GP
yea I was going to do 24 hrs dark in between anyway
seed breeder recommended that


I am doing well mmclean
now that I have these issues sorted
I will give a full update tonight

mixed up some bloom nutes that I will use to top off the reservoir
alternating that with water on a day to day basis
depending on the PPM and such.
eventually I will have mostly bloom nutes running
will prob just dump the reservoir and swap out to bloom nutes next weekend.
Temps in my area plummeted outside so during lights out it swings about 20-30 degrees
in the grow room. I read that that is a good thing? who knows.
Meanwhile new light fixture has a warranty so I am set.

Trying to save money has each time bit me in the ass on this project
I should have plopped down the cash and got all new stuff at the beginning
If I would have any advice to someone getting into this
buy new gear and what you think you can afford, go one level higher
with what I have ended up spending trying to save some cash
I could have got top notch gear
a tri meter that is constant reading on the wall and probably a 600W HPS
live and learn I guess.
Thanks everyone for your support

Everything I type, post, and talk about here is completely false, and is no way true.

yeah it is, just like in nature, during the fall, the temp usually drops a good bit at night.

havent really devoted much study to that aspect, but you can imagine, if its natural in nature(lol what a good pun) itll be good for the girls as far as flowering goes, cant say the same for vegetative though.

hey man is it just me or did the plants look dry in the last pics?
sorry im high and just noticed that...
but they are all looking great
hope you get a pound atleast

It may be because I switched to HPS lighting from MH and your used to seeing them in more natural light?
Dunno but they are no drier than they were...
As far as getting a pound, maybe wet it will weight something but a pound?
I doubt it will be that much.
Not that that would be a bad thing really I could skip next grow haha
Being I am not gonna sell any of it (at all really, its just for me)
That would hold my light weight ass for months!

haha just trying to look hopeful
yea your prolly right about the lighting didnt think about that

Please remain hopeful!


OK lights are off so I will go do an update later this morning
Checked in last night and all was very well.
added about 2 qts of water to reservoir
Sorry about missing an update proper yesterday but not much changed
I used to go in at like 5am before work, but the way things worked out the lights will be off at that time
so I will be updating after work now instead.
also there was no electricity yesterday here at that time so I kinda
got caught up in gathering the large branches from my yard the storm gifted me with.
I have some very large and old pine trees near my house.
Winds were wicked the night before last.
The kids are reaching puberty I guess as some are starting to show me their pistolas!
Yay!
I will post pictures later and you can help me figure out who is what
not really good at this part yet so I will be hopefully getting some help from you all.
Full update later today.
