Tek - I haven't popped any of those yet. They are next in line. RIGHT NOW I can only run them under 12/12. I suppose I could pop 3-5 and do 12/12 from seed. I have some extra light now.

It's really time for me to make a nice veg room.

What are you using for your main flower room light/lights?
the ones i ran 12/12 fs were tall they still veg'd for a while before they finally flipped , should be alot of semi auto's in there i bred the ones that flowered on just over 14/10 some tried to flower on 16/8 i just slowly cut the lights back and then made my choices by when they started to flower ...... attempting to get 24/0 veg and like a 16/8 flower

i was just wondering if you popped any no worries ........ i have some i just put down so ill let you know in the next couple of days how well the germ rate is ..... i had problems with them on the last round i popped but i honestly think it was temps hindering the growth

ive actually used 15 ppm and it worked fine once and then the next time i had to use something stronger .......
Yea, some strains are more resistant to reversal than others. 25ppm should be good enough to flip anything tho, if you spray 2-3x daily, and cover the whole plant. That's the benefit of homemade/well made cs. You can spray the entire plant, leaves, buds, and stems, and it won't burn at all. It'll just end up growing and looking like a male, as opposed to some deformed abomiation with a a mix of burnt pistils and some pollen sacs.

PPM isn't the most accurate way to determine the strength of your cs tho. A laser pointer shined through it to check for the Tyndall effect should give you a more accurate reading of how potent it will be. Some "250+ppm CS" sold by stores have no visible tyndall effect, while you can see the beam clearly during the day with 15-25ppm well made cs. There is no way the storebought stuff is ~10x as strong. It's actually, most likely weaker.

Hazy,

I was getting ready to read your link to CS and it shows a "rollitup error" thread could not be found. I think I'm ready to make my own. Is the thread/link gone or hosed?

i just bought 2 x 1 gram bullion coins off of ebay it was like 12 bucks roughly its been a while ago and just alligator clipped them .... the cleaning the silver off every few minutes only needs to be done if you are taking the CS i just let it go over night with 3 9 v batteries and there was all kinds of black nasty flakes but it didnt effect the usability of it i just siphoned it out and left the bottom junk layer in the jar i made it in

Just sure they are .9999 pure. Also, not everyone cleans the electrodes very often, but it helps keep your cs clear, and full of microscopic particles, instead of larger bits of silver that just sit on the plants surface and potentially suffocate it, possibly causing some deformation. Ideally, cs should look exactly like water until you shine a light through it. It can still work if it isn't perfect, but it works best and most efficiently when made with more care,

ya its as pure as you can get ......... the larger flakes fall to the bottom ...... when your PPM gets in the 300 + range is when they start cooking ...... well had some cook around 150 PPM but they still flipped so whats it matter what the branch that was sprayed looked like

Day 15 of misting -
3/31/15


Well I ran out of TM today. I used up the 1 oz bottle plus another little bit of another. Here it is today. Just trying to keep it low. I can't get a good pic of the pistils but they appear to be somewhat browning and there aren't many of them. It could be I sprayed directly on the pistils and it burned them or it's working like it should. Just a waiting game now. Here it is today.

My daughter was cleaning out her room and was going to throw this away. Hell no!! If it doesn't work as a mobile scrog unit, at least it gives me some other ideas.

Oh yeah, WEEK 6 of BR and ARK in aero rails.

Growth in this type of set up (aero rails) never ceases to amaze me how fast the plants grow; especially the autos!!!!

Lots of budding sites. Flowers just staring to form and fill in thick (see pics).

Been bending branches to fill in all the squares of trellis netting.
Should have a total of 36 f'n KILLER KOLAS...in 5-6 more weeks...WEEK 5_BR_AKR RAILS.JPG DSC05526.JPG WEEK 5_BR_AKR RAILS.JPG

Ok Hazy. Here are a few power adapters I found around the house. Which one would be the best to use?

1. 12vdc 600mA
2. 4.6vdc 900mA
3. 5.2vdc 450mA

Now I need to do some reading on saving a bit of pollen.
