i have a 4x8x7 foot grow tent. my plants are about 7 inches tall n a week n a half old, im going to be transplanting them in the next few daysfrom red cups into 3gal buckets..would the 2 600watt lights be to much for how young the plants are right now?!
i grew my clones with a 600watt hps in my tent an they was fine,i just kept my light at the top of the tent untill they grew a bit more then i droped it to about 18 inch above the plants

Well i need a bit of help, im growing hydroponicly and its been 3 weeks the plants look good lots of leaves, green, but only 4 inches tall, i dont know the strain but im guessing that is a shorter bushier strain. But the roots inside the net pot are nice and white but when they extend out of the pot they only last a day, and they turn brown and die, ph is 6.3 and my ppm is at 367, i am wondering if i need to lower my nutes even more, say till its around 250-300, please help. Ooo and when i say alot of leaves the leaves bush out about 6-7 inches. ALSO RUNNING 400 WATT METAL HAYLIDE LIGHT 14 INCHES AWAY, AND ROOM IS A CONSTANT 78 DEGREES.

i am growing super lemon haze out door how large should the container be ?
depends on how big you are gonna let the plants get, most folks use 5 gallon pots

my girls are looking great been 2 weeks on grow 24hr light and now 3 weeks 12/12 bloom. loadsa little pre buds coming along. i got 2 trays of 5 hydro and 2 pots cush. temp reached 36 deg then 38 deg last 2 days and they have drunk a shit load of water/nutes. how hot is too hot?? they look super but just a bit worried about heat.

at temps above 90F growth pretty much stops

View attachment 955950View attachment 955951ok ive just set up my cool shade,my temprature as been at 33degrees to 34 degrees,its now siting at 27degrees using the cool shade,put some pics up of the shade and a pic of my plants at the moment :),,the plants have been in flower 3days and there getin even more bushy and there guna double in size,ive been told i cant trim now there in flower is this true? thanks
IMO you should not trim, but the reason not to is to reduce stress

if i were to plant a bunch of mj plants inbetween and next too a few 4 ft tall pine trees. about 2.5 feet from them. do you think the roots of the trees will choke my mj roots?
No, but they will drink your water

hello my friend you look like the guy ive been looking for:) due to circumstances out of my control ive decided to buy led light panel 120watt as ive been told this will not be as detecable on the electicity bill as much as other methods, ive read my first 2 books on growing but im finding it hard to find out much info on the led panel, any advice would be extremely helpful:)
as far as your electric bill is concerned 100 watts is 100 watts, and you folks need to get over this idea that you will have this huge electric bill a 400 watt light is no different then a 47 inch TV in pwr consumption, or say having lights on in 4 rooms in your house

LED's work but are far from the best option to grow with, there will soon be a day when they are better as they keep expanding the technology but till then,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Looks like bugs, need to look at em with a microscope

I have a seed with no shell. Do I still need to germinate?
I never germinate, just plant em

germanated 5 ak48 seeds march3 put them outside they r now starting to flower hyow can this be we r getting more then 12 hrs of light
depending on shade and cloud cover ??? how much more than 12 hours do you really think your getting and it needs to be over 16 hours with some strains,,,,or they could be auto's

I have a question on germinating temperatures.

I put some seeds between wet paper towels on a plate with an upside down bowl overtop. I put them on a heating pad on the lowest setting. When I got home today I checked the temperature and it looks like they were at 90 degrees F for about 24 hours. Was that too hot? Did i kill my seeds? If I take them off the heating pad will the temperature change be a shock to them? None have cracked open yet (out of 10). Should I just throw them in the pots and see what happens?

needs to 75F, 90 is a bit high but they may be ok if they have not popped yet, why I don't do the paper towel thang, just plant em

Thanks a bunch that pretty much clears up everything that I had. I will be sure to do a journal so I can share what information I can with the community.

I water 15 on/off during the day and 15/45 on/off at night. Make sure your water is nice and aerated too. I have an air stone in the bottom of each pot and in the reservior.
hey man thanks, can you recomend a good timer i can buy for this? night and day settings?

finishing up my room still need a few more things

I'm pretty sure I have said several times in the past few days

THAT YOU SHOULD WATER FOR PLENTY OF RUNOFF

you don't water a certain amount and you don't water on a schedule

You water when the plant wants it and you pour enough water in the pot to get a minimum of 10% runoff

hi, was wondering if someone could clear up a few simple questions, i have a 600w H.i.D and a 1.2m x 1.2m milar lined grow tent and was wondering how many plants could be put in this area, and second of all what is the best soil to buy for flowering in the uk, i know these questions are probably answered elsewhere but after 2 hours of searching my brain hurts.
