I would flush and lower ppm to 100 or so using cloning solution for nutes.

Read the whole thread and you're learning a lot. The only thing I don't understand is you keep trying to push your PPM's higher and higher and your plant's dont like it. You've literally done the same thing three times in the thread. I would flush your res and plants w/ plain water ph 5.8. Then...

One of the number one things you need to do when growing is make sure your pH is in line. If your not checking your pH then I guarantee that's your problem. It's probably way too low. Seriously, get a meter and some pH up/down and get it to 6.8. If your runoff is less than that flush with a...

In your initial post you mentioned you were "not measuring pH". Are you still not measuring pH? That could be your problem right there. Make sure all water hitting the plants is between 6.5-6.8. Then test the runoff. I suspect your runoff is going to be under 6. I just sprouted 10 seedlings in...

There's your problem right there.. you don't know what the pH is. Careful pH control is essential for any grow. Get a hannah pH meter and make sure your water/nutrient solution is 6.8. After you water make sure the runoff is similar. For example, if your pHing your water to 6.8 but your runoff...

I accidentally posted in wrong thread. Can someone move this to the indoor thread? My apologies.

All, I have a quick question on watering/feeding. I have several grows under my belt; all of which I ended up needing to either feed or water twice a week. Plant's would generally dry out in 3 days. This was when I grew in a basement scenario that was <30% humidity. I have changed setups...

Looks good for a first grow. I highly suggest using more nitrogen next time. As soon as you see yellow leaves like that it's a nitrogen deficiency. Mold on your soil like that is absolutely fine and as others said; extremely beneficial. Roots form symbiotic relationships with certain types of...

Thanks for the help guys. I hear you on getting a 1000.. but I have an extra 600W just sitting around which is why I was thinking of using it. Both of my hoods are this: http://htgsupply.com/Product-The-Euro-Reflector Would a better hood help or is that a decent one? And yea, heat is not an...

All, I got a couple options with my setup and I wanted to see if anyone here had an opinion on what I should do. I have a 4x4 tent with 4X5gl pots and 2X2gl pots soil (6 total). They are under a 600W MH vegging right now for another 3-4 weeks before flip. My question is.. is it worth adding...

Hi Folks, Quick question on tincture. I took some "A" grade trim from my latest crop, dried and cured it then placed a bunch of it in a glass mason jar w/ 190 proof everclear. I've done this before. This time, however, after the tincture sits for a day or two there is a collection of what can...

The thing to remember my friend is growing is an incredibly difficult, time consuming, technical, and in some cases illegal. If you are going to start to grow, you might as well have read enough that your eyes are bleeding and have all the equipment, ferts, lights, etc ready to go before you...

I just did a little experiment myself here. Had 6 Sour Diesels ready for flushing. I flushed 4 and only watered 2. Chopped em all at the same time. Just finished curing and I can't tell the difference AT ALL. All the buds turn into white ash once burned. No chemical smell, no nothing. Though I...

I lie a 75/25 mix of lightwarrior and FFOF for my seedlings. Then I use 80%FFOF and 20% perlite for the final planting medium Also, and this is very very important, when using FFOF it is IMPERATIVE you add about 2 cups of dolomite lime per 1.5cf of FFOF soil. This soil has a tendency to acidify...

Anyone have other ideas? I am about to cut a few more and would like to know if I should be doing anything different.

Weird, I've been reading about it all morning and most people say jaring long term >60% is not a good idea. I guess ill experiment. Anyone ever hear of putting a humidifier in a drying room? lol

Hi All, Quick question on drying in low humidity climates. I have an ambient RH of about 10-20%. After chop, my dry room goes from 20%RH to 50%RH. Then after about 3 days it drops down to 20% again. It is drying my bud too fast so I was curious if what I decided to do to alleviate this is the...

Beastie blooms and cha ching are worth it. They both add a nice boost of phosphorus and potassium. The thing I really like about cha ching is it has a 9 nitrogen content. It is used in late flower right up until flush. This supplies the plant with a little boost of N during late flowering, just...

I could have some good advice for you as I run a similar setup. I have a 3'Wx6'Lx9'H room. I have 2x600wHPS in air cooled hoods and a 6'' vortex fan pulling through a carbon filter and exiting outside. I ran 8 plants, idea was to have 4 in the 3x3 area. I used 5gl smart pots.. and let the...

I know. Talk about a dead giveaway.. must feel pretty retarded.
