True dat about paying your bill. Apparently people get caught when the power company notices "hot spots", where lots of power is being used, but not paid for.
My sister runs a catering business from her house, with loads of freezers and fridges. I checked the other day and they were drawing over 8000 Watts. They've been doing this for several years, and no one's ever asked any questions.
Rock & orangeman - I know I need to learn some patience, lol. Since they only took 1.5 liters, there was still plenty of moisture in the pots. Hopefully the high perlite content gives them enough aeration. I'll be sure to wait longer next time, it's just so hard not to DO something. Vertical growth had almost stopped for a few days, although the stalks were fattening up like crazy.
The main reason I added Superthrive was because I added a little more soil to get it right up to the seed leaves, and wanted to encourage root growth along that part of the stem. I've been using it on some of my outdoor non-pot plants, and it's amazing how they've taken off!
Thanks for the input, folks. It's nice to be able go through this with other growers.
Trust me when they start flowering and you realize how much you really have to do next time you'll see how easy it is just to sit and watch your babies when they are just starting off lol. Don't worry I'm on my first grow and I was just like that in the beginning. I still over analyze stuff and worry but we'll over come that when we get used to it lol.

If I may add some thoughts here....
As was told to me to a very sharp mind....the electric company doesn't give a rat's ass how much energy you use as long as you pay for it.....on time. They couldn't care less what you're doing with it as long as you are paying for it.....again.....on time.
Rock, do you go 8 days between waterings? That just seems like a long time to me....soil too heavy? I'm no soil pro for sure but had to stick my nose in.....:D
PS....I wouldn't make a habit of letting kitty lick up the water but in small doses it won't hurt her.....she's a normal cat right....not ill or old....well even old doesn't matter if she's healthy. ....babble babble.....:cool:
WH- actually, it varies on the watering schedule.
each girl is different, for a long time they were diff sizes too.
also, some days are warmer or drier than others.
thats why i recomend the meter, it proved to be diff than finger testing enuf times to trust it.
i just go by the meter.
sometimes 3-4 days, sometimes longer.
Rock.
looking good rasko :thumbsup:best of luck with your grow bro.
I'll buy that..... :)
I know what ya mean. When my plants were vegging and the lights were off and I didn't get a chance to see them the day before I'd go down there and turn on the lamp light I sat in there as an emergency light lol. But in flowering that's a no-no so I have to suffer with not seeing them, I guess that helped me to stop being so eager to go down there and bother em lol.Quote:
