You may try some Super Thrive the first couple weeks of veg. Use nutes high in N for veg and high in P for flower. Theres all sorts of ferts out there for soil or hydro grows. I used organic 5-1-1 for veg and added organic 0-10-10 during flower on my grow. Used Super Thrive early on in the...

Congrats man. Now enjoy your labors :)

Congratulations Rollitup. And thanks for all the help :)

Its that wintergreen flavoring. something about it really tears lips apart. During your veg stage, you want something high in N and during flowering, something high in P. be careful when you add your nutes. Don't over do it and not too soon from start. As far as keeping em short, there are...

Leaves get like that in flowering because of low or no N. Try adding some N in your next feeding and maybe again @ next feeding after. Hopefully that will clear it up or stop any further yellowing.

Thought that you were a man of the grizzly and thought that pretty cool ... then I scroll down and see Skoal ... now I'm thinking otherwise. Just kidding :) GL on your plants.

1 tblsp / gal is what the GrowFaq shows. This can be quickly resolved by watering with 1 tablespoon Epsom salts/gallon of water. Until you can correct nutrient lockout, try foliar feeding. That way the plants get all the nitrogen and Mg they need. The plants can be foliar feed at ½...

Highest I've seen at WalMartish type stores are 42 watts. 30-42w would do you for now. The more the better.

One other thing about these digital ballasts is that are reported to run both MH and HPS lights, so no need for 2 ballasts.

Absolutely. Just be sure to watch out when / if you add nutes later on. Maybe add a drop of Super Thrive to your water @ each watering now. When your plant gets a lil older, it should utilize that soil a bit better. I'm still working on my first grow, so I don't have any seasoned advice to...

6 and then 7 CFLs. Ranged from 30-42 watts each. Mostly 6500k ones.

Congratulations! Lets see a pic of the final product :)

Vegged not long enough. Those gals look heavily pruned. Maybe that stunted the production. Just a guess I'll haphazardly toss out here.

Whats that small yellow ball on the left of the pic? Looks like a MG slow release nitro bomb.

Holy effin GOD. Regardless as to wether or not this works ... Everytime I try to imagine how one would go about collecting this stuff, I get sick. Please stop this. Would you: a) Follow your girlfriend/wife/mother around with a bucket once a month? b) Search trash bins for used...

Do what FirstTime said. Clear top, mist -> humid. Keep em under lights. Maybe not directly. Mine was shaded by the topped plant but under light.

I do actually. Its a solid piece of cardboard with mylar on it. It was taken off for my watering and picture taking. It rests on the bar the lights plug into and extends the entire closet almost :) Finally got my MH grow bulb today ... wewt.

For shits and giggles I took the top of a plant I just 'topped' and tried to clone it. Dipped it in root hormone and stuck it in a Jiffy peat pellet. It rooted after about 1 1/2 weeks.

I also agree to use the CFLs for your veg stage. If you haven't got the lights yet, be sure to get the 'blue' CFLs, the ones rated in the 6500k range like Ron says. At least have a majority of the CFLs in that range. Once you are ready to flower, kick that HPS on and maybe switch out some...

I've been using Black Gold organic. Has all the good stuff in it like perlite, peat moss, worm castings, etc. Nice black soil, yum yum.
