All the best with them and I like to tag along and watch.
Thx rattling, I did try to make a nice log here and I'm glad it shows! Welcome aboard too! :thumbsup:

Question. How are you liking that parabolic reflector? I've been ogling those for a while. Did you get the optional diffuser? Thoughts appreciated.
Again, nice work here. I'm signed up.
Thank you bigsby I'm trying my best really. As for the parabolic I have no previous experience with other hoods etc so I'll just let you know what I think of it with my limited field experience. In my eyes it spreads the light wide and evenly. The wings are adjustable to 3 settings so you can focus more or less depending how you see fit. Temps are kept low with the 400W even without the diffuser. (it was included but took it off cause it gave me the impression that it was creating shades when too close to the tops)

With an oscillating fan blowing in the space between the lamp and the plant tops temps are kept low (23-25C / 73-77F) at even 20-30cm (8-12") so as I said it gave me the impression that in close distances it was creating shades. But I'm the noob here correct me if I'm wrong. :(
Peace,
:hippy:

I'm familiar with this particular reflector which is why I asked. Not from personal experience but from researching different options. As I understand it, the three different setting are intended to mimic different seasons - spring, summer, and fall. I can dig out the literature if you need it.

That would be awesome and a good read. I'd like to know for sure instead of assuming in blind, so yeah if you could dig that up for me I'd grateful! :thumbsup: Applying mimicking seasons would be interested to say the least if not beneficial! :thumbsup:

I had some questions regarding my nutrients and I made a thread in the Organic Growing section (not sure if that was correct but anyway...:wtf:), but it doesn't seem like anyone knows something. (at least not from the guys checking that section of the forum anyway lol:D) So I thought I might as well included it here in my log and have everything less spread around for easier access! ;)

Cellmax
So I was wondering if any of you guys have used em to give me some feedback regarding results/yields and also if I should stick to their schedule or adjust it in any way regarding feeding potency and frequency.:what: Are they any good cause if they are then why they are not popular? What nuts would you suggest for my next growth (that are available in EU pls)? Or should I start making teas and the alike and screw pre-made ones? :hippy: This is my first grow so I didn't want to go in too deep this time with making my own :(

I have everything as shown in the schedule (bloom,grow,pk boost, super enzyme, root booster) asides the flower stimulator (flower power) and I was thinking of getting it too to add it when the time comes(still in vegetation atm).
- I understand that it's carbohydrates and amino-acids or something, so similar to molasses?
- Should I stick to the schedule and give it the last 2 weeks of flowering even when flushing?
- Should I not give it while flushing?
- Should I give it for the full duration of flowering, or just fuck it completely and use molasses instead?
- Should I give both this and molasses and for how long/till when?
- Fuck both and nothing? :p
The thing is that shit was expensive, around 30 for 150ml and I don't mind spending it if it will do good but if not... :wtf:
And now that I mentioned molasses, should I add them to the feeding schedule together with all the rest of the nutrients at 1tbsp/gal or if I do add them I will have to take something out?
Peace,
:hippy:

I've not seen your brand of nutes anywhere here in Holland. If you decide next time to change nutes then the lines from Canna and Plagron are popular and easy to order online.
Enjoying your log. I seem to have turned into a growlog-a-holic lately lol.

Yeah I've seen the video, the one they grew it in a 85l container. Well I'm not expecting to get results even remotely close to these :p Stay tuned and we'll see how it turns out at the end with a smoke report and all! :jointsmile:

In my original thread before I made this log, Rusty mentioned I should check my tap water. I did so here are the results.

ok I did some research and I came up with those values regarding tap water in my area:
- pH: 7.4
- GΗ: 8
- ΚΗ: 6
- ΝΟ3: 0
- Water Alkalinity: 150 - 200 mg/lt CaCO3
- Water Hardness: 120 - 130 mg/lt CaCO3
- Calcium: 45 - 55 mg/lt
- Magnesium: 4 - 7 mg/lt
- Nitrogen: 3 - 5 mg/lt
- Sulphates: 30 - 35 mg/lt
- Chlorates: 3 - 15 mg/lt (higher values appear less frequently)
- Free Chlorium: 0,3 - 0,5 mg/lt
- Chromium: 1.6 μgr/lt
I hope I got the chemical terms translation right, being Greek and all :p Does it call for adjustments? Lower it maybe to 6.5 or so? And if yes how? Would some lemon juice work?
PS. Will be back later today with some updates and new pics of the ladies so stay tunned!!! :cool:
Peace,

All is going well but they are growing a little slow... I'm guessing it's cause of the humidity, it's always around 65-70%. Haven't watered em for 4 days now and the soil is still a little moist on top. Been raining like crazy lately so...
Anyway, from March on that they'll be in flowering I'm hoping it'll be better. If not I'm off for a new exhaust fan... So here are some pics of 2 days ago. Couldn't post them earlier the forums seem to have been down or something... :wtf: They are 14 days old in that pic (since moved to the pot). They've been growing an average of 1.5-2cm/day at this point. :weedpoke: Stay tuned!
Peace,

And here's a mass pic too of all 9! Have moved the shorter ones in the middle and I'm also turning all of them 90° daily to spread light evenly! :thumbsup:
