Nice, I determined that since my space is so small 9 lights is plenty. The white paint I chose to go with reflects very good.

Thanks for the sub. I'll check out your grow. I love looking at the bublecious grows.

I'm getting anxious. I really want to throw them into flower but I can't!
I feel ya. I'm using LED and I "burned my tops of my two week old plants and it took them 2-3 weeks to recover. Now they are looking good, but have some growing to do. I have 5 more bubleicious seedlings that are about 10 days old. Maybe they'll catch this bunch and I can flower all 10 together :)

Don't clip the fan leaves...they are what absorb and give the plant energy...if anything try to move or bend them out of the way of lower growth.... :) nyce grow bro
Day 23
Temp: 76-80
Humidity: 40-42%
Light: 20/4

Bit of bad news, I checked my email and I won't be getting my TigerB until the 21st. I seriously hate UPS. If it was going usps I know I'd have it by the end of the week. So I'll probably hold off on flowering until Wed/Thurs.
Should I clip the big fan leaves so the secondary growth can get more light?

Bubblelicous(I still dunno how to spell that)

I'd start them off in something small they wait until they're about a week or two old then transplant into their final pot. Having said that. I woke up this morning to a ton of brown spots on my bubble plant. I checked the pH it's 6.3 so I don't think it could be nute lockout. I foliage sprayed some pH'd water on them to see what that will do. It MIGHT need come Cal. I'll have to see what I can buy and mix with water. I'm not flushing them again for a while.

Here's some pictures of the problem I don't think it's calcium. Looks like Boron deficenty but the pH is right for it to not get locked out.

A soil PH of 6.4 and less will lock out ca and Mg. Your soil is acidic and needs to be sweetened. Adding Cal/Mag will only worsen it once PH is corrected, possibly giving it too much. Just a recommendation, water with some 8.0 PH and bring that soil PH up quickly. I top dress my plant's soil with pelleted lime to keep soil from going acidic. Especially important if using rainwater, distilled or RO water.

Hope this helps ya!

i think your ph is a little to low bro. add some baking soda. my ph was 7 and i added some vinegar and it droped to about 6.8

How much baking soda per gal?

Sounds like a good idea. Should I pH up the water to 8.0 then add some baking soda?

baking soda makes it higher so if the ph water is already at 8 then i would just stick with that. it might make your ph go up to high. we r both haven bad days today i got my seeds and 2 of them are cracked from attitude. everything else is great i hope they help me out. went into flowering today too bro.

Nice, if I get the problem sorted out I may flower tomorrow or wed. I have no idea what to do right now. I am using 8.0pH water yet the run off is 6.1 :(

This is a huge shock, all was well up until this. The flush seemed to really help the plants get growth going.

AH! This plant is driving me insane. When I watered the plant initially with the 8.0 water the first bit of runoff was 6.1, then i dumped that out and gave it a little more then the runoff was 6.5


Would the sand cause pH lock out?

You need to keep flushing with 8.0 PH water until your run off indicates it is above 6.5 PH Sounds as though your flush may have left the water acididc. It's always important to keep an eye on run off PH. I write mine down on a calendar so I can track each plant.

I would keep watering with 8.0. Once run off indicates 6.5+ PH, stop watering and add pellet lime to soil as a top dressing, just 1 tsp should do it.
