not a typo, I use 2 gallon pots and I water with 4 gallons (twice the amount as the pot size) if you read my threads you would know this

there was a guy that set out to test my method and within a few weeks he was done and started using it on all his plants since the test plant grew twice as fast as the others

ok,im not disagreein with you but 50litres is too much for my budget,that would cost me loads in nutrients haha,were i went wrong is puting them in 25litre pots in the first place,how tall do you grow your plants in veg?and how tall is your finished lant if your using 4gal pots,think 25litre pots was a big mistake,hopefully 5 litre a day should be enough for them..i just put a post up about my temprature again too,the weather has picked up in the last few days an my temp is 32degrees even with the added inline fan,,only thing i can think of now is a cool tube to suck hot air straight out.thanks

at minimum you want a 10% runoff when you water, without it you will need to flush more often to prevent salt build ups

as for cooling you can either try adding a cool tube or you can lower the ambient air temp outside the tent

well i transplantd them into tat hyponex crap. man, it was completely dry when i opened the bag up, so i watered a lil. THE SHIT TURND TO MUD n the water jus sat on top... i had to take them outta tat stuff, put em in some miracle grow soil tats been sitn out on the porch for bout 2 months, run to the store n got some miracle grow oranic choice garden soil (.10-.05-.10). added perlite, blood meal, bone meal, and lime. finally got them in the final resting place around 11. they been lookn pretty sluggish, droopn pretty bad, the lower leaves almost sitn on the soil... is tis normal? n how long do they usually take to wake up? i did soak the smaller pots before moving, as you suggested... n ran lukewarm water over the roots to wash away any gnat larvae n most of the old soil

dont know if you know the less you mess w/ the roots during transplant the les damage the plant incurs (w/ the exception of the spiraling rootbound plants). If you handled the roots then you may have problems. FYI. stressles transplants can be done but there is major stress when your fingers (expeciallty those of some one inexperienced) fiddle with the roots.

i didn really mess wit them, jus laid them across my palm n ran water over them. but no i didn kno tat

iv re-posted this as it got lost a few pages back im trying to get a rough idea how much water an indica thats 3 weeks into flower after vegin for 21days under 400w from seed there in coco noir and current are having 3 litres a day each, half morning half at night

Hey guys I am drying the rest of my first harvest in my grow tent (no longer are any plants growing in there). My Question is this: Should I have one of my quiet little clip on fans blowing air, or is the carbon filter enough? Right now I have just the filter running, it is rated as like a 140cfm fan and my grow tent is a GL80 2.58 x 2.58 x 6 ft tent (about 40 cubic feet).

Will the filter be pulling enough air out of the tent that I don't need to have any other fans on? Should I turn the filter off and have a clip on fan running? Temp is a steady 70 and humidity is 50-60

carbon scrubber is fine, but your humidity is a bit high need to watch for mold

cant i let the light go out at 3am in like 4hours then leave it off till just say 8am so its had 5hours with light off?thanks

I just put three clones in a bubbleponics system, and added nutes. I'm concerned about over/under feeding. Some leaves are curling under with some having yellow tips, and I also have leaves that were once curled but are straightning out. I'm using dual spectrum cfls. This is the second day the clones have been in the system. Any help?

Hey guys,

I'm 1 week after planting and today I noticed my biggest plant (about 3 inches) had fallen over due to a weak and skinny stem. I propped it up and immediatley added a small fan in the closet. I also plan on adding more light because I think they started stretching due to lack of light. This is my first grow just wondering if you think this will help. Any other suggestions?
