one takes a lick'n, another starts a tick'n :p ;) :D

8 pm started their first night of rest for the ladies all 8 of em. whew! been mostly 24/7 during veg

-carbon scrubber running and nothing else for bed time.
-ran the ac into the closet, have flex tube bring the cool air down low. cut off laundry room vent.
-split the circuits by using the attics outlet.
-running all fans and scrubber off bedroom outlet.
-changed out soil with a mix of potting soil and some earth gro organic. had to get ozmocote out of their undergarments. been 5 days and they look soo much healthier!
-the last 3 waterin's been with RO water n Super Thrive

-got a dual prong with no ground timer by mistake. don't feel like breakin off grounds for this.

-carbon scrubber TEE's off into one flex tube going thru light hood and venting heat into attic...
other TEE of flex tube is blowing up the center of the 2 rows of 4 with fresh scrubb'd air, quite a current blowing with the 6" vortex !! this is why turned off fans at night.

gets nice n cool now with AC n door closed. it may go down to 67 in there while sleepin. night night hope not too much colder.
?too cold is?

-using 2 digital thermos/humidity 1 at 6 ft on shelf above other ground level thinkin bout 3rd on wire canopy level

-600w HPS kicks in at 8am for 1st time!!
-400w MH will be used concurrently for 3 hrs per day.. mostly....

?what flowering ferts to get? Depot and Lowes are choices.


looking forward to updating with some pics, hold your bowls and horses! :cool:

Awesum jonny who is angry!

GLad things coming along.

I had temps in mid 50's and had no problems...they just turned greener.

Home Depot sells Schultz bran Catus fertilizer.

Since MJ is a succulent, it works great but be like really cool with it....use 1/4 the strength and only use once a week.

It does drop the pH so measure AFTER you add the nutes.

Kick the MH to run after about 2 hours after the HPS runs and let it run about 7 hours...turning off e hours prior to HPS tunring off.

Gives a good warm up and cool down like nature.

Cant wait for pics.

WOW this is FUN!

real quick angry...

you have one pic there that the leaves are curling way under and look like claws shapes.

The reason for that, look at the base of the stem and the dirt. Your roots are exposed at the surface.

NOT GOOD FOR MJ.

Add a few inches of fresh dirt and get those roots covered.

OK

added little to each pot hehe pot

exposed roots when transplanted, thought it may be just left over ozmocote.


decided to give them a little MH for about an hour.. heck it first day, dont wanna hit em with too much.
READ post about glass blocking the uv-b rays? refuse to take the glass out!

"You want a pH pen."

angryjonny...

looks at the shadows being created on your flooring...what is that brown carpet?

Whatever it is, it is a shadow which means....

LIGHT BEING ABSORBED.

THink how much better the lower foilage would be able to create energy for your ladies if some of that light was bouncing back up to the undersides.....

Light is energy.

It can travel trillions of light years if strong enuff...until it is transormed into another form of energy.

In this case. photosynthesis is what we want that energy transformed into.

In the light on the floor, the energy is being absorbed and transformed into heat.

While not enuff to alter room temp, it will alter flooring temp.

It would be better to reflect and redirect the energy to the green stuff.

Just my advice angry one.

It does look nice and that is the only thing I would advise to change.

I also see some light escaping from the top.

No need for that either...its just light that could fatten the buds....but hell lets not build Rome in a day, right :) :) :)

Enjoy your room.

"but hell lets not build Rome in a day, right :) :) "

improving is part of the fun. ;)


?continue using the floros as side lighting? how much longer in 12/12?





everything will happen eventually

Learning as I did, NEVER turn off the side lighting........I would cut some limbs first next time before I removed the side lighting.

I forgot, but how old are these plants and how long have they been in their current stage of cycle?
