I cant see it for some reason unknown to me when I click on
pics here they look like negatives.
looking good man but i wouild get rid of the tin foil , nasty stuff tin foil. plain white cardboard will reflect as much light and is alot safer than tin foil. reflecting light back up won't really help that much as the bottoms of the leaf do not use the light for photosynthesis.
keep posting to let us see how she's getting on
cherrs just took the silver foil off ill keep it going do u think its small planted on the 23 of june:confused: and how many times a week should i be feeding it?
feeding can be tricky thing , what i would tell u to do it to give a weak feed every watering , this way the plant get a constant supply of food rather than a big dose one day thennothing for days and days . less chance of over feeding and nute burn. water only when pots are truely dry . with weed less can be more .
tin foil isnt hat bad...i lines my grow room with it for a while...
ur plant was stretching with a 500w light?...
i can see it was stretching just add soem more lights and set it in a closed area to reduce light leakage and it should fill out
Tin foil conducts and holds heat and the reflectivity of it
isn't worth a crap. but if its all you have then ....well its
all you have.
the tin foil at the base of the stem idea was a bad one, I tried it once and it made hot spots which burnt 3 brown spots into the underside of the leaves, use mylar or flat white paint to make more use of your light.
and dont put anything reflective where you put the tin foil cause it will burn your plant and can aid in mold growth.
didn't i just say that ...lol .
if u do it right u can have this.......
