Thx for the info. Can you elaborate on this? I have a 55 gal drum. Would putting a pump in it that pumped water to the top of the drum (above the fill line) and through a screen of some sort accomplish the desired effect? How do you keep your res cold? Do you use a chiller? I have a 55 gallon...

So are you planning to flush? If so, how/when do you flush if the different strains mature at different times?

I do have air stones in the res. Do you not use them? My average res temp is 72. Is that too high?

crap. So it's either stretch with CO2 or no more stretch with lower temps. Fuck me.

I definitely won't raise them but if the tallest plant starts to grow above the reflector will that cause it to stretch even more?

Thx tyke. I have really good exhaust and cooling so the lights can be really close to the canopy. Right now there are about 12" above. I will see about lowering them some more. The one thing that I run into is that the closer the lights get to the canopy the less light the outer edges of the...

Ah yes, thank you for reminding me. My average temp has been close to 81 with a high of 84 and a low of 78. They say that with CO2 supplementation (which I am using) that a slightly higher temp is recommended. I'll try backing the temp down a bit.

Yeah, I was interested in it's sterilizing capabilities but I'll re-evaluate things after this run.

Great! Why did i have to pick a stretcher to start with? Ah well, at least I'm learning a lot about how to make sure plants don't stretch.

It's starting to look like things are happening.

Sounds good.

When does Sour D (and marijuana in general) stop gaining height? Is it the 4th week of flower or do they keep getting taller until they are harvested?

Well I was trying to bend them over but I guess i was trying for too dramatic of a bend because they snapped. :wall:

Nice! Somehow "bendin her over" always works out.

600W (i wish I had gone 1000w but i was afraid of the heat build up and the electric bill.) I think the super spreader works great. There is significantly less heat directly under the bulb.

I think that's what I'm going to try to do tonight. It's already 3 weeks into flower and I really don't want to cut anything. Hey, it's an learning experience. We'll see how it goes. Thx for the feedback!

Not knowing much about soil I really can't be helpful but it sounds good to me. Sorry for the confusion. I have an Ebb & Gro hydro system. Hence the "top off" question. In hydro the plants will use up water and nutes and you can either put more water and/or nutes in "top off" or you can...

What a nice lookin crop. Nice job!

Well, it's been a challenge. Stretch is killin me. I'm probably going to tie down some of the tallest branches on my tallest plant cuz it is about 12" taller than everything else. I know it's a bit late in the schedule but that's the only thing I've come up with to keep it under the lights...

Wow, 20x30x9, now that's a grow room. Is your room sealed? Are you using HID? If so, how are you dealing with the heat? Thanks!
