They are in 17 qt pots, and the soil is a mixture of 1/3 Scott's 9 month time release flowering nutes, 1/3 $.99 cheap shit potting soil, and 1/3 composted manure. I don't have a ph tester, but I guarentee I will by the end of the day!

OMG! Holy burn! Is flushing it going to help? I'v got to get most of that crap out of there! How do I do that? Is it too late? It's only been 2 days, but its moving quick! I can see differences by the hours, literally.

Hey, this isnt' supposed to be posed here.... sorry. :D

Hey! I'm a girl! Your not alone, but yeah, we are seriously outnumbered!

I'v read, I'v searched. And I have a few different theories of what could be wrong, but really, I don't have a clue.... Check it out~ The lights have just been changed to 12/12 2 days ago. They were at 24 for about 3 months, so the first nights was 6 hours darkness, than 8, than 10 and now...

Well, I don't think your going to get it to be any cooler in that tiny closet using a HPS, fan or not. I recoment florescent lighting (2 thumbs up). They cost less in every way, and are much more user friendly. They will allow you more space too (they stay inches away from your plants without...

Well, I didnt spend money on it. :) A friend gave it to me. :D

I'v got another question.... How crucial is absolute darkness during the dark time? Is a little light around a door a problem, or does it have to be absolute darkness? Can I look at them during the dark time?

I'm going to try this again.... I got a little info from my last post, but not enough. I'm a first timer, and you may have to be a little 'simpler' with me. It took me while just to figure out 'nutes' are nutrients. :blsmoke: So I'm 3 months in, im on 24 straight light. I'v topped, I'v...

At what age of the plants do you start flowering? I have a book that says to wait until they are at least 6 months old, is this true? Is 3 months and about 2 ft tall too soon? ~Miss Behavin

Hey, got another idea for you. Put your ventilation box opposite the bottom or top of where the lights are. I was going to say put your box low, but my lights are low. So I would want my box high. If you stay away from the lights via height, that will make a huge difference too. ~Miss Behavin

Well, I'v never made anything like it, but I'm an artist. When I think of shadows, the length of the box would determine whether or not light gets through. Make your box a rectangle. The smaller area of the box vs. the length of the 'tubular rectangle'= light exposure. :D I hope that makes...

So I decided to keep a mutant for tha sake of science. And I'm still not sure what to think almost 3 months later. I kept her (hopefully her), because she came up with 3 baby leaves instead of 2. It still hasn't sprouted any leaves with more than 3 segments, and it has some white spots on the...

I think they look great! I like how short they are staying in comparison to how much growth you have going on. ~Atta boy!

So I heard a little more about the FIM technique. All I could catch was you leave about 20% of the growth still in tact. What exactly is the FIM technique? How do you do it? I have one left, and I'd like to try that. :D

I'm on my first go round, and I started with an old grow book, almost as old as I am. It says you should 'top' your plants from the middle stalk to cause your plant to be more bushy. Is it true? Or did I cause damage. These pics are only of the ones I topped. The book says ones the growth from...

They are probably leaning tward the light that is closest. Or if the bulbs are different, maybe one is better than the other. I have to turn my plants sometimes twice a day to keep them from leaning because my lights are slightly smaller than they should be.

I posted a question about an odd little plant. I'd appreciate it if you'd check it out for me and let me know what you think. Thanks!

Ah, yeah. And maybe you should put the syringe down... all together. Just a suggestion.

I a newbie, obviously. :mrgreen: But check this out... I started with about 30 babies in jiffy pots (most meant for outdoors). I decided to keep 6 of my favorites for in the house. One of which is a 'mutant' for lack of better terms. I picked it because it had 3 round babie leaves instead of...
