yeah alluminum isnt the best reflective material.

Edit:

plain white or some other plastic reflective material (Mylar, panda film, folyon) seems to be the best choices

good job attacking right away, Bugs are now your worst enemy!!! not the guy that gave you the finger whilest cutting you off..(dont worry random guess since you live in cali, happens all the time!)


you shouldnt worry about Co2 just yet my friend, when you have a room full of growing clones, then you should get the Co2 add in..

but for now, as a starter grow, just stick to a good lighting system, nutrients, the lighting sked you intend to use and so on!


edit: can you do me a quick favor and tell me if some of your leaves are slooping downwards?

Yes indeed. A few of the tips of the leaves have begun slooping downwards. Now this may be a result of giving them their first good watering with their first nutes yesterday along with the mychrozial root stuff I added. I did test the PH on my water and the soil and I'm getting a 6.5 on both. I am not watering at all today. Let me know if I should do something else. I also added 2 non-toxic fly traps to the room and bought some ladybugs today which I will throw in a few after the lights shut off tonight.

BTW...Nice Road Rage reference. lol

Well it looks like I gave the girls a bit too much nutes (1 tbsp gallon) of Big Bloom and Grow Big seperately (approx 15 min apart). I am going to cut it in half on Friday when I Nute again. I'm noticing just minor yellow/orange spotting on some of the tips. Any advice?

BTW...Just got a hold of a quarter of Sour Diesel...getting hammered...great smoke !!!


Update !!!....90% of leafs have come back to pointing towards the heavens. It appears I'm out of the woods. Gonna be cutting back on the nutes and water for a lil bit. Unless you masters have any thoughts?

nutes are a gift and a curse, it seems that your getting on track of the right ammount of nutes that your giving your plants.. You have to find the right ammount to stew your plants in..

Im glad your plants are doing well..Keep me posted with pics and doubts and well, you'll be smoking in no time..

anyways! heres a good time to think about the future, for when your curing your plants..(its always good to think ahead!)

Great link whoop. I'll definitely be trying that method for some of the buds I harvest. We'll see how it goes. Can you find me a link for a good air drying method as well (if you know one). Thanks and I'll have a few pics tonight of the girls.

heres a quote from widow makers guide on how to grow marijuana

This is one of the most important steps. Usually what I do is tie up some string in a closet. I hang the buds on the strings and let them dry for 2 days. They shrink a lot, its pretty sad. But after my 2 days the outside of the buds are a little crisp but the center of the bud is still real wet. I take either a paper bag or you can use plastic or I sometimes take my special buds and put them in my 1 gallon jar. If you use a bag wrap the buds up in it, seal it or whatever. This draws the moisture out of the center of the bud and allows the bud to dry evenly. You will have to open the bag a few times daily. This is very important. If you don't you will probably get moldy weed. So open it up a couple times a day. It doesn't have to be for very long but you just need to get rid of the excess moisture. After about a week of this it will be cured. I like my stems to snap when I break them. It lets me know its dry in the center. You want to keep a close eye on things cause you don't want the buds to get too dry where it crumbles to dust when you break it up. That makes it a harsh smoke. Not good. You can spray some water on them and repeat the process if you dried them out too much. The slower you dry the buds the better the smoke usually is. You want to give the sugars time to break down. Honestly my way is probably too fast but it smokes good and taste great. More than likely if you dry it out faster than this your bud will taste like a fresh cut lawn. Not good.

Great info bro. Many thanks.

its all good im just here to help

DAY 6


All is looking good on day 6. Lots of new growth. I learned my nute burn lesson. No water today. Added some ladybugs and a new white wall. I included a pic of my new friend (LAdybird) and a pic of the Sour diesel I've been lighting up. It looks like a piece of dog poop in my palm but tastes like heaven. I'm working on a better camera right now...Using a razr camera phone at the moment...lmfao..sad

BTW..Lights have been off for about an hour when I took these pics thus why the leaves are drooping...Babies were sleeping....aww

Soil is still damp to the touch @ 1 -2 inches so I am keeping them dry today. I'll give them a watering with a touch of nutes tomorrow morning. I'll send an update tomorrow as well. Hopefully with some better pics. Peace

ph uPDATE...

All PH levels in Soil were tested @ 12:45pm and all are still @ 6.5. I will be testing PH and nitrogen levels tomorrow after watering and nutes.

Book Mark Bump... Read It All.!!! Comms Coming As Soon As I Can Make A Comeback From Cloning. Prob. Tom Arrow.!!! Db.~tlb!

1st Seal The Widows. Security.!!! Stop The Neem.! Pick Pots Up To Check There Weight. Then This Will Tell U When There Dry And Needing Water. More Coming Soon.!!!

Thank you kindly...Done deal on all fronts. Will be checking pot weights from this point forward. Windows are secure. grazi DB

Oh and Neem has been cancelled until further review...stuff stinks anyways...ugh

LOL...Right on DB. We're all freaks in the freak kingdom. Rock on. I'll try and calm the Full Metal Jacket style down.

bwahaha..

ill turn down the new offspring cd over here..
glad to see everthing is goin so well

Just a small update...Gave the plants a nice stew of nutes...GB 1/2 tb - gallon....BB 1/2 tb - gal. Nitrogen tested and came back @ a high level (The test only monitors Very Low, Low, Medium or High. The color is actually a lil more pink than the high default pink. Should I be worried about having a little higher than normal Nitrogen? I'm thinking I should have done this test tonight or possibly tomorrow to get a better result as I had just watered with heavy Nitrogen nutes an hour prior so I'm guessing the levels are always going to be high after that. Let me know. Peace.


Update !!! Plants are thriving and loving the nutes they recieved this morning. Absolutely no burn and starting to really stink...."I'm Loving It"..."Mi Encanta"...Sorry thinking about McDonalds Fries....ugh

DAY 8 PICS !

Looking good. New camera...haha This is day 8 since transplanting the clones.

Good First Full Summer Saturday To Ya....!

Will Be Off And On All Day, Hope All Is Going Well. Pm Coming At U./!!! Db.~tlb!

Ok so here are some stats on the room...

Low temp @ night = 70 degrees

Humidity @ 72% (Constant)

Last watering was June 20th @ 10am. All three pots soil PH levels were tested yesterday 20th registering 6.4 - 6.6. Tested Water/Nute solution before feeding and had a H2O PH level of 6.1 and a High Nitrogen Level in a seperate test. Plant heights are as follows:

1. 8" (ALaskan TF)

2. 8" (DOA)

3. 7" (DOA)


Oh and happy first full day of Summer to yourself DB.

ALL SOUNDS GOOD...! RH IS A BIT HIGH, WATCH FOR MOLD ON WALLS AND PLANTS, DIRT SURFACE WILL ALSO SHOW IT... SOME TIME IF THE SOIL IS TOO WET, IT WILL GROW THIS GREEN MOSS LOOKING STUFF ON THE TOP.. A LITTLE STIR WIPE'S IT OUT AND THERE SHOULD BE A FAN GOING IN THE ROOM GIVING THE GIRLS A LITTLE WIGGLE, NOT BLOWING THEM OVER,,, JUST A LITTLE SHIMMY!@!@ LOL...

I LIKE BOTH OF YUR STRAINS, SO DEFF. SOME IN HOME CLONE CLASS B4 TOO LONG...!!!

ALSO ANY NPK ON YUR PRODUCT... IM SORRY IF I ALREADY ASK THAT OR HAVE BURNT IT FROM ME MEM. LOL, I WOULD WATCH YUR N, THE PLANTS ARE RUNNING GREEN NO SENSE IN PISSING THEM OFF. HOW LONG DO U PLAN TO VEG. AS WELL. DB.~TLB!

Im a little slow...what does NPK stand for (are those the nute #'s). And as for veg I was planning on or around July 4th..hopefully they'll be @ about 14" by then. Does that sound kosher? Also are there any things you would reccomend to bring the humidity down to like 50%?

Update (Checked Humidity again it has dropped to 69%...just got a new meter so it may be getting used to things. I'll take another measure in a few hours. Also I have a big Oscillating fan on high making shure to add a good breeze on them. I'm leaving it on 24/7 should i ever turn it off?

Grow Big = 6 -4 -4
Big Bloom = 0.01 - 0.3 - 0.7
Tiger Bloom = 2 - 8 - 4
Open Sesame = 5 - 45 - 19
Beastie Blooms = 0 - 50 - 30
Cha Ching = 9 - 50 - 10
