Hey smack...

The plants look like they are stretching..

How is your temperature?
How is your ventilation?
What light are you using and how far is it from your foilage?

cheers
: )

[smackem]

temps about 81 and im using a 1000 watt hps light to do it all and they sit in 4 gallon buckets anythign else you wanna know :)?

[smackem]

lol sorry about that i cant edit my last comment buti have a ac unit i intstall a 5 ton heat pump outside quite expensive but my grow room has a brand new ac unit not many have the luxury of having one and its about 4 feet from them

[smackem]

for you i answered your questions

[Garden Knowm]

THANK you.. hmmm.. 1000 watt HOS.. good job

How far is your light from your plants..?

new pictures?

: )
cheers

Ill try and chime in a little here...

Whats the pH of the water/soil?
What brand of soil are you using?
And most importantly... youre not using any nutes are you? The last one is mainly for beginners, sorry if Ive offended your intellect a little there :)

[smackem]

ok well for all the qeustions i love answering the light is ab out 4 feet away form the plants:) and the ph i have no clue? i last time i tried to mess wit hteh ph i burn the shit out of the plants adn the brain of soil is half mg and half a bran wit no ferts and i use mg fert i use about 1/4th of the actaly amoutn every time i water the plants :) any ideas or sudjestions

[smackem]

oh and aboutthe pics ill have new pics up in 2 days i want them to get a little more impressive so yeah 2 days pics will be here by saturday night new pics and they should be big

[Garden Knowm]

smackem...


you need to lower the light... do you have a fan? have the fan blowing up towards the light.. blowing the heat away from your plants.. lower the light a couple inches everyday.... you shuld be able to get the light 1 foot from your plants.. for now try to get it 2 feet from your plants.. there is no use in having a 1000 watt hps if it is going to be 4 feet away from your plants..

basicaly, the rule is this..

put your hand where the canopy of your plants are.. if your hand can stand the heat, so can your plants.. 4 feet is to far... : ) start LOWERING

you need to get this...

it will be the best investment you could ever make!!

PH is the corner stone of indoor growing!!

[Tom Swierzbinski]

GK, do you recommend having the pH at a constant level all the time (6.3), or do you think its better to have it fluctuate between 6.0 and 6.5? In theory a slight fluctuation would be better as it means the plant can uptake all the nutrients it needs. Or can MJ in soil, with a pH of 6.3, uptake all the essential nutrients?

[Garden Knowm]

HI Tom...
Yeah I think some fluctuation is nice... I think that human error probably provides enough fluctuation.. In aeroponic/hydroponic systems, even with expensive PH meters the PH fluctuates between 5 and 6 and the plants seem to be fine... and like you said, it allows all the nutrients to become 100% available..

When I grow soil.. I shoot for 6.8...

: )

[smackem]

thank you very much GK my lamp will be moved down tomorrow in hopes that i dont burn the babies one is only stretching the others are staying small and growing LOTS of branches and slowly getting tall but only ONE shot up but ill lower the lamp and yes i do have fans i have 3 fans 2 at the light one on the plants and i tried the ph stuff already and all it did was burn the little babies i dont know if i wanna try again and risk them getting hurt but i might how do i test my soils ph

[smackem]

[smackem]

simply bumped it

[chef423]

so you want the water at 6.8 before adding nutes and/or watering the plants? or is this the Ph of the SOIL, after watering?? Thanks!

[smackem]

ok when i had a gallon of water messing with the ph FUCKED me up it BURNT my plants BADLY i used ph lowering liquid and it fucked my plants up but what do i do how do i do it please help me someone
