Thought I'd get a little input from you expertz. I just added a 1 gallon jug of the yeast, sugar, water CO2 dillywhoo into my cabinet last night, the plants are looking better already. My question is 1 gallon C02 enough for those baby plants,..pictures below. Should I also seperate those two plants that are in the same pot now? or leave them be, I'm afraid of shocking them. They are at their 5th/6th node, should I wait about another week and start 12/12, whats your suggestions. The picture with the one plant in its own pot is a Nirvana BigBud plant, it seems to be alittle behind the other two plants, should I be worried? They have been growing for about 1mo 1wk. Any Idea's?
pls help first cab grow.:stoned:

I'd separate the two in one pot ASAP, in a week you may not be able to. The way I do it: first get another pot ready(fill at least halfway with new mixed soil whatever you use), take the existing pot, roll your hands on the sides slowly (makes it easier/looser to get the dirt/roots out of pot) flip over holding the stem and dirt; the whole dirt/root mass should slide out of the pot, carefully separate the two into halves (you're gonna break roots, just be careful)then repot them, give a little water with no ferts and watch em' droop for a few days, if you wait the roots are gonna be bigger and the plant is too, so now is the best time.

transplanting is *always* scary unless you've done it a 1000 times(I'm not to that point yet myself), again be careful!

You did well, they should spring back within a few days. YMMV

They look a bit small for flowering yet. In my humble opinion.

:D :D :D :D I got an A/C unit my dad gave me,..went over to his house to pick up my 80mm fans and some cpu fans and low and behold he had an old A/C unit in the garage,..yes! I asked if I could have it for my grow and he's like sure, what else ya need..(i'll be seeing dad again soon) anyway's My first question,..does the a/c unit on the back side put out ozone or anything, if I were to keep it in an enclosed space such as my garage,..and run it for 1hr every other hour and have the cool air running thru a vent into the cab?? whats my options, don't know to much about a/c units...what can I do..oh I also put in an 80mm fan at the bottom of my mills pride c22 cab and a pretty good cpu fan I had from an athlon 800,..I don't know the cfm but do you think that will work its about a 2ft width x 2ft depth x 4ft height,..intake 80mm fan exhaust in same compartment the cpu fan about 1.5 to 2x smaller,..whole thing sealed pretty tight..should this work...guess I'll keep an eye on temps...the yeast c02 1 gallon jug is in there and starting to smell like beer when nose put to top of jug, is this normal after day 2? should I duct tape or get a black container to keep light out of jug or what? hope to hear any idea's thanks guys everyone's been a great help to my first cab grow!!! go growers,,,, yaaaaaaaaaayyy (in special ed voice):D :D :D
