I know this is ghetto and my grow aint shit but I use a DIY co2 system and I was happy with the amount of co2 that wsa given off for a week. I took a 2 liter bottle added 5 tbls of sugar and 1 1/2 tbls yeast and filled bottle up with water 1/3 of the way. Shake vigorously for a while!!!!. Replace once a week.....Its just a boost but i liked it and think I am going to do two bottles

UPDATE DAY 19 FLOWERING:

hey all I just finished feeding the garden. Getting harder each time due to the growth spurt, It seems like 90 percent of the stretch increase is happening in week 3 and it's like 6 inches in around 5 days. I'm tired as heck right now and still wiping the sweat off my face and head from crawling around getting tickled by leaves HEE HEE :smile: anyways I like how my custom GH flora guide ups the micro, still giving the plant reasonable N, it goes up each week. It was created by the local hydro shop, tried, tested and true. I bubble the tap water (all I have) for 24-48 hours before adding nutrients starting with flora-micro, seperately, stirring each time, finishing with liquid karma. Then superthrive, then test the PH (6.0) stir it again and feed, each plant got 2 litres tonight.





some of my plants have been lst'd a bit, some have been topped second to last week veg, I just wanted to see the difference between these techniques for future reference with the OG kush sofar it looks to be the topped ones that look the best, the untopped, un lst'd ones just look stretched and too lanky for my taste. I am wondering if anyone can predict if these tall stalks that are flowering in little clumps will fill into solid colas?

here is a plant that has been topped once



and here is a few that have never been touched, huge difference eh?



here is some pics of the bud developement, I don't know what to expect for almost 3 weeks in so... I hope theyre doin theyre thing right






here is a shot of the room, filling in by the day! gonna be tight as a bitch as it goes further into budding





well the flushing I did for a week straight seemed to help the lower leaves stay greener this week, I was really locked up in those pots, really needed it. Tallest plant is just under 3 feet so I think I will be okay for stretching, I was expecting ALOT worse. Like I said they didnt stretch much until the end of week 2 and into week 3, they shot up like crazy. I'm thinkin they will start to just fill out in flower soon. I think I may get some molasses soon, recommended usage? can i use with my food and not burn them? Ok well I will be updating in a few more days, stay tuned

I'm sure hopin it gets KRAZY lol that's the goal behind this project. I'll have bud for a year, that is also the goal. I only was able to get one strain so I'll be trading some qp's of og for other strains for me and my friends and family to smoke. Peace love and keep it green my friend :) :bigjoint:

I hear people start using molasses around 3-4 weeks into Flower and use it all the way about 1 week into a 2 week flush. I also hear c02 pucks are a waste of money and that you should just use that money and buy a proper system especially for the size of your grow. You've done everything right so far why try to short on something as important as c02.

actually i did some reading and they put out around 1000 ppm of co2 plus they make the room smell piney I'm gonna give a shot

Looking good. OG streches a bit but thickens up nice.
I bet you will pull 5 off that if your using Co2.
Im doing an MH grow. Im on day 21 aswell. Its also KUSH. Pk from BC
Your lights might be a little high. Keep the 1000 12-14 inches away. Depending on the heat.
Are you using a bloombooster? i didnt see one.

Thx man. You think they'll thicken up on those long ass stalks eh? hope thats the case. 5 would be prime. Your goin full way with MH? thats cool to try it, hear it's real potent that way but less yield. I have 2 mh k's in my room as you probably already know, I rotate so that they all get different spectrums.

Yeah I will be adding Co2 within the next 2 weeks, 1000 ppm or so. My lights are within 12-14 inches of most of the plants, i have such different heights goin on it's not a good thing. I have a powerful oscillating fan hanging in the corner where you can't see it and that one you can see, the air blowing around in there is moving the plants alot and I have never seen even a touch of light burn/heat problems on any plants even when they grow within 6 inches of the k's. I do move the lights up at that point though, not risking it.

I have a bloom booster, just not using it yet, it's GH KOOL BLOOM, and it's 2-45-28. The schedule I have says to use from the start of week 5 through until the end of week 7.

Yea i use kool bloom from week 5 to 7 and do 1tbsp per 25gallons. go half strength on it.
You should be using a bloombooster from week 2-4 like Big Bud or Hydroboost.
I use hydroboost from the start till week 5 then use koolbloom

No offense but I'm just going to stick with the formula my buds at the hydro shop gave me. They get their regular flowering food for now, then they get the kool bloom as scheduled. The only thing I may do is add molasses to the food starting soon, I just don't know if that's going to cause too much nutes with the program I already have... Plus I have no money ATM for new products anyway HA. I think it should work out pretty well, time will tell right.

Okay I need help... I have no hygrometer for measuring humidity and I have no money left for a dehumidifier. My room is HUMID!!! at " SLEEPY TIME " like really really humid and I'm into week 4 of flowering. The walls were just covered with water droplets and it felt like an amazon rainforest in there. I need to find a very cheap, or reasonably cheap way of lowering the humidity in this room and fast! I cant have these risks with high humidity, it's going to cause problems very soon, if not already. Thx guys.

Do you have your exhaust fans running 24/7?
Click to expand...
technically? no. I have a growzone tv-2 controller that my exhaust fan hooks up to. It's dialed to 75 degrees and the lower switch, I just don't understand, too confusing. It has 3 areas that you can adjust a min/max setting on. It's a dial. The first one says daytime and nightime idle and low temp. I can't explain it. do you know how to work these things? It always shuts itself off sometime during dark time causing immense humidity. I can take a closeup of the gadget if that would help. Anyways I think I just may have to dial the temp switch to as low as it goes so the fan will stay on during dark, but it makes the fan just PUMP during light on... too noisy. I'll have to do this for now. Thanks.

This is what I just set it to, to keep the fan running during dark. It seems the only way to get it to run continuously during the dark cycle as well. I just wish I knew how to set it to say 85 degrees at light and still have it idle throughout dark time. When it's set like this it runs way too hard during lights on. I only need to run at the 85 mark but it has to be on during dark time. apparently I don't know how to use my own equipment, or it's just a piece of shit. Hmmm.

Maybe you should unplug your fan from the controller and just run it 100% 24/7 I'm willing to bet it will fix your problem otherwise the way it sounds say goodbye to your crop via mold.
