Happy New Year guys. Nice to have you along Sicc. Lots of new growth and I may need to move the ag light up a notch today. I have the house to myself today and just puffed a little and gonna kick back and do nothing. I will snap some pics today or tomorrow morning and post them.
I ordered a grow lab and a carbon filter because they are starting to smell up the house a bit. I may just go all out this weekend and order a HPS light too. I am trying to decide on a 250 watt or a 400 watt. You can actually get 400s for about the same price or even cheaper than a 250. The lab I ordered is 3'x3'x6.5'. I will only be doing a couple plants at a time so I think a 250 will cover it and I am concerned about heat. That is why I may go for the 250w. I read things about the helicopters that scan for heat. I am paranoid because they do fly around here at night. Maybe even with a 400 I have nothing to worry about. Do you think they would waste all them resources to bust me for my 3 little plants? I think they are looking for grow houses and not some guy in his closet. I wish medical MJ was legal in my state. I was always a stoner growing up but I had a job where they did random tests. So for years I couldn't puff. But then I hurt my back. The doctors would give me scripts for the opiates but I wouldn't take em they aren't for me. But when I first got hurt they helped a ton but they made me feel sick and sleepy. Eventually after my work dicking me around and treating me like shit (Mind you I was never out of work I worked throughout my whole injury (I have 2 herniated disks).) they laid me off. Well the first thing I did was pick up some bud. And since then, I don't know if it is the marijuana or not breaking my back at work or both, my back feels 90% better. I rarely get spasms any more. lol Rambling on. But to sum it all up Florida needs to legalize Medical MJ. I f you made it this far thanks for reading my stoned rambling. heh

Thanks, I've seen em. I have been going nuts price shopping. heh Ebay has some nice deals. Insidesun has good deals too and also sells on ebay. Right now I can get a 250 MH and HPS system brand new for $90+20 s&h. But for a little more I can find a 400w cooltube setup with mh and hps too and that comes with a timer and yo-yo hangers too. I may play on ebay and see if I can catch one that ends at an off time and find a good deal at auction.
BTW I was raising my light on the AG today and I elbowed one of the little soil grows and knocked it over. It was the healthier one too. So I went ahead and transplanted it in a bigger pot. I hope it makes it. Didn't get no pics but what a difference. I will put some up tomorrow.They're sleeping now. Maybe I will get a pic of my other soil grow because it is looking nice too.

startted my first AG in mid DEC (old bagseed)...got the same brown spots...only on the lower leaves though and it did not want to grow. Did some reasearch research and seemed to be a Nitrogen deficiency. Got some plant food plus at the home depot 10-15-10 drops $3 and they have taken off in the last week.
2 drops per 16oz distilled water.
Also started to produce CO2 yeast and bottle...opened the door this morning and it stunk (fermentation). Best of luck

Yeah that was what happened to me. They were just hungry. Everyone assumes nute burn if anything goes wrong. But you can't get nute burn or pH lock out if you don't feed them. I am gonna up the nutes a little bit today. Maybe half strength or a little less. Do you have a grow journal?

Ok I have some pics for yah. I cleaned up the res nice and bumped em up to 1/3 nutes. pH was nice before I changed in nice after too. I will check it again before they go to bed.
Lets see what do we have. pic 1-4. Over view of the AG. The bag seed(left) is getting tall and filling in. Check out all the inside growth and it reaches up for the light. It is even topped like a nice Xmas tree. pic 5. is the transplant that I knocked on its head. pic 6. is the lonely one on 18/6.

I was gonna move em apart because the taller one is trying to hog the light. But the roots are a little tangled and I didn't want to hurt em.
I am gonna order a hps on Tuesday. I need my carbon filter and lab to get her because they're starting t stink up the house. I thought it was the tall one stinking but it is the short riders. They smell like a nice sweet skunk. heh I gotta use ozium like every hour or so.

[QUOTE="SICC";3610242]everything looks great man[/QUOTE]
Thanks man. Theyre coming along. Lets see how they do with the nute adjustment. I am hoping they grow nice. They're definitely bushing out. The 2 soil grows are short rider too and look different than the SR in the AG did at that age. They're less than 2 weeks behind.
