hahaha. yeah! lst might be a good thing here. Do you know how long it takes until I start seeing buds? I have pistils everywhere but still no buds. i have about 3 more feet until she starts giving me problems. im just worried about side lighting. can i only give it side lighting or does it need a light on top as well? sorry to bug with all the questions

no prob ! also my veg set up .. all light comes from top .. if you check my journal i just took pics of my 7 mommas. you can see how well they are doing :).:weed:
the better buds are at the top and plants want to grow up toward the sun , why screw with nature ?
i would focus the light at the tops and if you got a few to spare then add them to the side

ok so my leaves seem to be "clawing". I looked it up and it seems to be a ph or "n" problem. My PH is around 5.7 to 6.5. My nutes are being put in only @ the end of the week with the tub res exchange. I have 2 more days until the tub exchange. The clawing seems to be in the lower leaves but is also effecting some of the upper leaves as well. Should I be worried?!?!
This happened over night and has yet to improve. The leaves are all still green and the pistils are getting bigger.

X-mas has left em broke and I have no cash for new Nutes. Any advice would prove helpful.

Thanks.

do you take your own pics or do you model? Lots of cool black and white avitars with a white wash out effect and high contrast.

model. I used to model back in cali. now its just some girls having fun. My friend takes them for me and I her. Sometime i'll take my own but that rare. The effect is done via Photoshop. The camera is an slr but can only do so much in effects.

if you are using cs2 or 3 and have a photo in RGB some cool basic sepia and picture effects in - image/adjustments/photo filter, shadow/highlight, exposure. Nice basic ways to tweek a pic before using curves and levels or masking.

actually none of them are rooting. not sure if they are slow starters or if im just being inpatient. and im getting this clawing on the leaves. they look like claws. the ph is fine now and the nutes arent a problem.

do you think the plant is telling me she wants a res change now??

the last week i res changed and added nutes and the water was brown from the nutes. well its clear now and the roots are white, so why are the leaves clawing!!! ahhhhhhh.

So after a LONG and very loopy weekend of smoking and drinking WAY too much, its time to get to work. Even with this massive beer headache i'm still managing to function.

The plants are doing good. I think there was too much heat over night because some of the leaves and new growth wilted and curled. I have to watch that. Today is the res change and with 2 of the same tubs it will be a snap! The pistils are growing very nicely and seem to be bunching up, so i'm guessing the buds are forming! Anyway, here are the pics...
