12 12 from seed

kngofhearts2diefor · Feb 17, 2010

i got some kushxthunderfuck seeds from cali. and im currently doing a stealth rubbermade grow with one 5000k cfl. i started at 12 12. is there anyway to make something to get more cfls into the rubbermade tote instead of using a grow lamp stacked on dvds since im running out if height? ive seen dual sockets but dont know how to connect them. just transplanted into bigger pot so expecting bigger stretch using lst method. started january 16th. plant showed sex at 31 days.

help or input appreciated.

p.s. two party cup plants, can they finish flowering in cup? their about half as old.

he can do 12/12 from seed. it is actually a very effective way of growing if done correctly

theweedguy · Feb 17, 2010

= p

rookie504 · Feb 17, 2010

So I just get sum perlite and mix it in the soil? What do I do if my plants are in the soil, I cant mix it? Can I put perlite in with my plants if I m giving them miracle grow bloom boost? Thx alot, lol

well like i said 12?12 from seed and at 31 days from breaking the soil i had a female. thing is i kept it in a tiny container and it was yellowing from bottom up..someone told me that it could of been forcing itself to flower cause it thought it was dying. i repotted it and am doing the lst. and the more lights thing.sorry man cant do it i have that and the sun and it hasnt been very sunny and plus im never home.anyway im getting pretty cool results and its expanding my knowledge of growing different ways. what does anyone think at adding a tsp of mollasses to a galllon and doing a soil drench. she only has a few hairs on her and im thinking the soil has alot of organic nutrients in it

i have two 15 watt 410 lumen 2700k flouros one on each side of the tote. two 1150 lumen 5500k CFLs above. is this a little bit better than what i had? what am i talking yeild in a gallon container?

kngofhearts2diefor · Feb 19, 2010

With upgrading lights my grow space went from 75 degrees to 90.0 - 92.1 what will I be facing with temps like these

you'll have a lot of problems with excessive heat especially poor and slow growth. What kind of air movement you got? I think your probably better off getting less more powerful bulbs to provide more lumens and likely less heat buildup. Those the 42 watt or w/e push like 3500 a peice so try those would be my suggestions otherwise figure out a way to bring cooler air into the set up.

They are only 1125 lumen. And I have 8 holes drilled in 1 side all about the size of a sharpie and a desktop fan running on high. Is 86.5 ok?

kngofhearts2diefor · Feb 27, 2010

update temp 83.8-86.0 during day, 70-75 at night

4 65k cfls and 2 2700k 13w minis. i let her gets some sun at some points. pistils now forming more steady. 1 shoot really stretching out there...

Use a magnifying glass to tell when its not growing anymore after the trichomes turn amber it has ceased building more bud. Then they turn brown it turns into dirt weed. Get a 10X magnifier from a drug store. You'll thank yourself for checking

kngofhearts2diefor · Apr 2, 2010

i have a mag glass. i kow how to do all that.just didnt know if i should clip the leaves or not. i was told they can still photosynthesis if they are yellow. as long as no spots or dead stuff

IMO a plant can always grow new leaves in veg state. I usually don't prune during flowering except topping.
