The plants are about 3 months old had have been in the flower stage for 3 weeks. They have 150 watts of light the lights are t5's. I was just trying to get some tips and see what people thought thanks!! :weed:

u seem to be doing just right,im veging under a 105w cfls and they seem to be doing good,i move them in to me grow room when they are about 4.2.5 weeks old, yours would have been much biger if u feed them with some nutrient,mine seem to got much big in the last week on the ones that i am flowring,like i say on the other ones that im grownig, im useing organic nutrient and they seem to be doing just fine. and it funny the organic vega im using brings down the water PH to about 6.5.7.but im allways making sure it right on the PH as if not the feed well lock up that when the trouble begains,i get some picture of me baby ones later,

Molasses can be used for the entire grow. There is some debate as to whether plants are able to take up some simple sugars, but conventional wisdom says no. Molasses really only serves to help feed beneficial microbes in the soil. I have used it and haven't really noticed a big difference. Sucanat is another sweetener that a lot of folks are starting to prefer since it is in a granulated form, dissolves readily in water and is relatively cheap. It is the unrefined, dried juice of pressed cane. It contains all the molasses and all of the simple sugars that are usually removed from the molasses during the refining process (molasses is basically a byproduct of sugar refining). You can find Sucanat at Whole Foods and some other health food stores. I have only used Sucanat on 1 grow but it seemed to make a small difference. Who knows? Happy growing. :weed:

Here is a link to a thread about Sucanat by subcool: https://www.rollitup.org/subcools-old-school-organics/54028-sucanat-soo-ka-nat.html

hello, I am also starting a organtic grow. I bought 3 clones 4 days ago and planted them in fox farm organtic soil. I also bought some organtic fert called happy frog. This is my second grow, with my first grow I only had one plant and I used mircale grow soil and fert. It was pretty sucessful grow however was a small yield.
Here is a pic showing 2 of my new girls and the fert that I will be using.

cmiller- have you tested your ph yet? just curious cuz of the tap water method...


seeking- what nuts you use for veg and what nuts for flower? and when did you switch from the veg nutes to the flower nuts. ( how tall were your plants when you switched from veg nuts to flowering.)

What about using pure green tea in watering the plants?
To what end??? :confused::confused:

I do teas quite a bit, mainly EWC/Alfalfa/Kelp meal, but never green tea.

Is this something you've done, or, something that seems 'like a good idea'?
