enironment is rather warm.. i use coco for medium with perilite and earth worm castings... water every four to six days depending on how hot it was.. 600 watt hps lights.. no ventilation and no pics.. but have growing this way for three years no problems
..
it starts off with my fan leafs turning brown around edges and then it takes over the entire fan leaf fairly quickly. this will happen to my flowering plants and veg plants. i have been doing fine for 3 years and all the sudden this has ben happening and i cant seem to correct the problem...
this isnt gonna be very helpful but i have used lady bugs in the past and for me they just seemed to escape the area so i would say u could use them in all stages just make sure u have them sealed in
id say atleast two more weeks. i would go get some type of microscpe and look to see how the trichromes look... little longer is always better than cutting to early and basically cutting yourself short with weight and stregnth............ plus i kn9w what u mean even though u have read books...
funny story... similar story, one time i feel asleep after i ordered a pizza and when i woke up it was too late the pizzeria was alredy closed and i was left starving.....lol
Do HPS lights lose some of thier strength as they get older???? ive been growing same plant for two years, taking cuttings, and the buds just dont seem to be what they used too. thanks for any help
