That sounds extremely bizarre (to me anyway). I've never even seen a PH of 4.0 before, I would almost venture to guess your PH meter is defective. Do you have another one to compare your reading to by any chance? The fact that they look wonderful also makes me wonder even more about it because I...

Yeah that's what I was thinking it's advertised as '60-65 days from seed' which I thought was insane even before I thought about growing it, I read the same things sometimes about them going 10 days or so longer than they're advertised, I figured it was highly unlikely and I bet I'll be doing...

Right on! I poorly worded that one... I meant anything other than the popcorn buds. Thanks for the clarification, I don't want anyone getting confused or the wrong info thanks to me. haha :D

I just purchased some Reptisun 10.0 HO 48" T8 tubes to give this a go, I currently have an Autoflower that's getting past the halfway point so I will be adding these shortly. I don't think the ones I purchased are all that hardcore but I am eager to see how they affect my grow. I figure for $40...

About to order some Reptisun UV lights as well, not sure if those are a decent choice or not but I have T8 fixtures and they're only about $20/tube so I can't see much of a downside. I am wondering how many of these I should have in each grow area I was going to order just a couple for now but...

Not sure if my Journal is just pretty boring right now, or if people don't feel welcome to post (I saw the sticky that says not to post in people's journals) I totally welcome anyone and everyone into my thread. Just throwing that out there, I am sure things will get more fun when I have more...

LST is low stress training, tying down branches so they grow horizontally which results in a lot more main colas/tops to emerge. I am doing it, it's awesome... I think it's most closely comparable to SCROG (screen of green) without the screen. Lollipopping is cutting all the sucker branches...

Day 8 Flower CB/AMS ... Day "53" SuperSonic Cristal Storm I am going to start my count closer to the seed sprouting now and actually hope this plant really is done in ~65 days. Still have doubts, and if that's true I think I should start considering using the Dry KoolBloom within maybe a week...

Not bad, those seem to be moving pretty nice as well. :) I counted around 25 tops on the bigger of mine, but they're around 7 weeks now... gotta love LST.

Yep, totally what AimAim said... You'd be best off just saving up until you can get a light. You can get some pretty nice lights for a semi decent price, I got 600W Digital Ballasts W/ Metal Halide and High Pressure sodium bulbs plus an open air wing style reflector for $160/each (that's...

I still don't know what to call this auto out on day wise. Honestly, I germinated the seeds on March 17th, they emerged from Rockwool on March 22nd... If I counted since Germination I would be currently at DAY 58 I have been counting days since my roots hit the reservoirs (so after growth had...

Day 7 12/12 & AUTO @ Day "41" When things start to get pretty I will take photos without the HPS on, I know it's annoying I hate how they look myself but it's a chore that's not really worth worrying about as I have no other adequate lighting around. I am quite fortunate that Auto stopped...

Hey nice to see you pop in! :) I think it probably was something to do with not cleaning out my buckets and reservoir I take my nutes from, since doing that the other day it (seems) that all of the plants are responding well and seem to be coming out with healthier new growth. I do use a CalMag...

I have one concern with the grow journals, I don't understand why Journal Entries and a Grow Journal thread are separate things... people either see one or the other, I WAY prefer to update a thread than mess around with the blogging on the site since they are not linked together (seems really...

I am definitely glad I cleaned out my reservoir, buckets, and mixed up new nutes... the plants really seem to be loving it and growth is going quite well again. They appear to be way happier than they were a couple days ago (obviously the flip to 12/12 on two of the plants is enhancing that...

I have always added my nutrients first as well, use a lot less PH Down that way it seems (and I never have to use PH Up for anything unless I accidentally use too much PH down) I fill up a 15 gallon reservoir, keep the lid off and let it bubble for several hours sometimes over night to take care...

6" are plenty, you don't need anything bigger and you'd be fine with smaller even. I use the 6" netpot lids and there's no conceivable way I'd ever need anything larger unless I was growing 5lb trees... I use 1 or 1.5" starter plugs and clay pebbles easy breezy. As you can see from this photo...

From my understanding they're quite a bit different but I hear people with different opinions on that a lot too, some people think they are the same thing one is just in liquid and the other is in concentrate form, it's supposed to be done Liquid Koolbloom > Dry Koolbloom toward the end to...

I never meant that, words must have come out strange or something. I just know plants start off slow in DWC since the roots aren't taking anything in until they hit the res... It's like a 10 day period of nothing happening (at least it takes me that long to get roots coming out of my netpots)...

The plant is about 30" Tall too, takes up just about my entire 2x4 tent... I don't even zip it up, it's been hanging wide open for weeks as it's too bushy to fit in there.
