    Northern Lights 600w LED

    Got em feminized from Nirvana. Thanks dude! And I don't really overthink it much. I just leave em alone and forgot em most of the time. It's only when I water them that I start to worry about shit like "well maybe I should trim them while I have them out of the tent" or whatever. Idk. I'm just...

    Northern Lights 600w LED

    I'm wondering if I should do any trimming to allow light to the lower buds? They're super bushy and really packed in there. May have vegged too long for 11 plants in a 5x5...

    Northern Lights 600w LED

    2 Weeks from Flip 9 Weeks from Seed Here's another photo update guys... They're looking beautiful and smelling absolutely delicious. Can't wait to see what they look like in 6 weeks. Really wish I would have installed a net to keep the canopy even, but oh well. Maybe I still can and it's not...

    Calcium Def?

    Thanks, man! Its soil. Did not know it took that long. The problem may be corrected already then as I was doing light feedings of cal/mag every few waterings since 3 weeks old (apparently that wasn't enough though) and I didn't start doing the heavy feedings until this last week. Will keep an...

    Calcium Def?

    Thought so. Must be pH on that one then cuz I gave them heavy cal-mag feedings these past two waterings but it still spread on that one plant. The other 10 are doing great.

    Calcium Def?

    Is it? It's on lower, mid and higher leaves. Only on a couple of the plants.

    Northern Lights 600w LED

    Update: End of Week 7 (From Seed) It's been a while but I've been extremely busy with work at my day-job so I haven't really had time to do anything. My lights finally came in about a week ago. I love them... they run super cool and the max temps are about 79.5 degrees which is pretty...

    Northern Lights 600w LED

    Heh, yeahhh I know I just don't really care though. Only 2nd time using that bulb and will probably be the last. My LED's finally came in.

    Northern Lights 600w LED

    So today I went ahead and set up the 1000w MH, dimmed to 50% because the ceiling lights were flickering even at 75%. Apparently the 15-amp breaker that this room is on can't hang. The temps are staying at a steady 76-78 degrees at leaf level (taken with a non-contact IR thermometer) which I was...

    Northern Lights 600w LED

    Update: End of Week 5 From Seed So they're all getting pretty big now. They're anywhere from 8 to 10 inches tall. So much for topping and trying to stunt the taller ones... they're 2 tops are already shooting up. I was hoping to transplant to 3 gal pots soon (when they're all at least around...

    Northern Lights 600w LED

    This is my 2nd grow with NL and both times got the early cal def. Also had it on the clones (which I had to throw out for other reasons) from my first grow. They seem to bounce back quick tho after a watering with 1/4 str cal/mag. I'll have to remember to give them an early dose of it on week 2...

    yellow white leaves

    Looks like the heat curl is going away, but it's kind of hard to tell from those pics because of the HPS. Are they looking better in person? They've definitely grown a lot. PS. Check out my journal if you get a chance. I'm about to post an update bongsmilie

    quick question

    Oh I see. Yeah, that's what's making it stretch like that. The plant isn't getting enough light, so it's assigning more of its energy towards growing taller in order to get closer to the light source. You want that energy to be used on more foliage so they grow short and bushy. If they grow tall...

    Help for a first time grower ??

    Yeah, I wouldn't worry about any males. If they were all cloned from a female, then they're all going to be female unless you stress them out too much and cause them to hermie on you. You definitely want that stale air being removed and fresh air coming in so they can have a steady supply of...

    quick question

    Those are the cotyledon's and are what kick starts your seedling's photosynthesis which allows it to grow it's first set of true leaves. Once that happens, it no longer needs the coty's and they'll yellow, wilt and eventually even fall off. No need to worry, it's completely normal. I'd worry...

    Help for a first time grower ??

    IN B4 18 vs 24 hour light debate. Honestly it doesn't matter. Keep your light schedule the same, imo. Just stop overwatering them. The way the leaves are curling down at the very ends, I can see why you'd think nitrogen toxicity but I think the leaves and stalks are just drooping because they're...

    yellow white leaves

    Yeah, man... I wouldn't even worry about your plants stretching at all from pulling the lights back a bit. They look like they're growing super short and bushy so a little extra distance shouldn't hurt. Post some pics next week and keep us updated. I'm curious to see how they'll look. Good luck!

    Plant looking like shit, please help

    I mean... you CAN use tap water... but you should have it tested first for chlorine. You really don't want any chlorine in there, plants hate it. If you live in the city, there will almost undoubtedly be too much chlorine in it, or worse chloromide. At least with chlorine, you can let the water...

    Plant looking like shit, please help

    What's wrong with bottled water? What water do you usually use? Hopefully not tap water?
