Way Too Slow...WHY?..Please

The instructs for FoxFarm say to begin when plants have reached their peak of vegetative growth and are starting to show first signs of flowering. I started it when they reached maturity, but before signs of flower. I agree, I don't think it is that..as Mscaboo said..I didn't continue with the veg nutes, I just stopped them. Temp w\lights on 100, lights off 95. soil is mixed with 40% perlite. lights are 4' flouros,2 above, 2 behind. Thanks for everyones help. Any more ideas are always appreciated. I am going to give them veg ferts for a week or so unless one of you experienced people advice otherwise. all my thanks to you folks. Enjoy your Day.

100 °F is way too warm.

If those are the usual temps...your plant will spend most of its time trying to stay cool and merely survive. Too much heat is a definite growth inhibitor.

hey slowthestone are you sure about the temp thing. I always thought they liked it hot. Does everyone agree with this? if so what temp would you recommend? thanks

Ideal temps with the lights on are between 74-78°F, though some strive for 68-74°F, lights off...71-74°F. You've seen that they can handle higher temps...but handling isn't thriving eh.

Do yourself a google search for the ideal temperature range of your plant. You'll find your answer.

ok i will thanks for the advice.

ya 100 is way to hot, you could get away with 95 if you had co2 hook ups in your cab.. but right now my cab is 86 and growth is definitly slow.. gotta get the dayton strapped in and ready :o
