think'n that's a mosquito........West Nile action...? LOL
I hope so anyway. Dont look like a gnat with that beak........

Your pH sound okay......though when I was doing soil I think we went for 6.7-6.8?? In hydro we go 5.8....... But for soil you may be a bit low.
Can you get a good leaf pic when the lights go out?

Great luck! I love your set-up!!

Thanx Hulky, been nice having your moral support. you know its never to late to switch to dirt

dirt was thinking about it.....was thinking of going to foxfarm for one of my other grows in the future but for now im trying to get hyrdo down..... I just got a WATER FARM whooo hooo so im thinking thats going to help out alot but im hittting a wall not sure what to do.......but anyways thats my problem, yours is looking great ill be watching waiting for the pistols keep it up

whoa there sweet set up and a butt load of plants, looks good.
best of luck in flowering... im about to flower in the next few days...

ps. im subscribing

I side with Hulk Nugs in that I wouldn't worry about that on the lower leafs.......as long as your new growth stays as healthy as it is---they look GREAT! I 'd try to keep that pH in check a bit more to prevent any lock-outs or anything that may become a problem down the road...... If your using the FF macros(beastie, cha-ching) be easy with them! The Tiger Bloom can be hot as hell too.............but they're the best of the best nutes IMHO........
Looking awesome there!

Still trying to get this yellowing under control. Here is some updated pics. Still no sign of preflower so still no confimed female. As soon as I get one she will go the the mother chamber where I plan to clone her right away after letting her veg for a couple of weeks. I figure I can veg the clones with her as there is plenty of room in there. Then I can flower the clones when this batch is ready.

looking good cant wait to see pistols.......did you ever show us pics of your mother/clone room and your flower room ?? are they seperate rooms ?

lookin good! fairly smooth grow

gonna watch this one

Run off is 6.4 GM. Merry Christmas Everyone
Well preflowers have come just in time for xmas as a matter of fact I have decided to take two as mothers just incase something goes wrong and are going to let the rest go to bud I have purchased a quality ph and ppm meter so I wont screw em up any further.I definitely nute burned em with the tsp per gallon crap! Now I am ph corrected and feeding at about 850ppm of GH Floranova Bloom.

looking really good bug !!!! your mother room might need some more reflective paper on the upper part ......... how much did you pay for your ph ppm metter i didnt read about the ppm untell after i got my ph meter spent 40 on just a ph meter grrr

thanx Nuggy I paid about $240 it tells temp as well. got all the the calibration liquids as well for another $20. all dialed in now. Expensive yes...better than guessing though. Now another $350 for a good C02 set up and I will be set.

dam i wanted to buy it but i thought i could wait a while, how does it tell the ppm, wire to the water res? how about your humidity and temp do you have one of those thermastat i think its called?

It has a sensor that is similar to the ph tester and yes I have a combo thermostat that tell temp and relative humidity. The nute ppm sensor will save me the most headache so the nute dose is correct each time, I am still tryin to recover from overdosing them.

I am in the same spot stilll trying to get them back from there nute burn.......does your thermostat just tell you the temp, humidity or does it controll it to, like if the temp goes down it does somthing to help it go back up or if your humidity is not right it turns on a humidifier to make it right??? I have a temp humidity meter but im looking for somthing that i can just set the humidity and temp and it makes the room to whatever i set it at.......i believe i read in someones thread that this is possible i just read to many threads and cant remeber where i found it at

i can only tell what works for me...I use a humidifier to boost the humidity and my exhaust fan is wired into a dehumidistat which you can buy at home depot. I set that 55% so it turns on the exhaust. The exhaust draws in new air which lowers the humidity to around 45% and exchanges the air in the room. The humidistat senses the decrease of humidity and shuts down the exhaust fan. it cycles like this about 4 times an hour keeping the humidity at 45% to 55%. For temperature i have a heater that has a built in thermostat that kicks it in only if it goes below 60deg. when the lights are on temp is between 75 and 80 deg anyway so no need to play with that. Check back through my journal and you will see the various equipment. Mostly you have to tinker with things to get them to balance.

right on bug appricate the help ill read threw your thread...... i have a heater but you have the right idea of having the thermostat built it i might look around for one like that.......where did you buy your heater? crazy new format for the site huh hahaha gotta get use to it.................keep up the good grow

Well it looks like I have 9 good Females out of the bunch. I cut one out that was a male and am going to give a couple of days to the remaining 3 to show me gender. If not I will hack them out anyway. Here is a pic of one that is forming a bud on top.
