Need some advice....Checkout my first grow

Yes a flouro will work to take up the slack. It also gives the advantage of differant light spectrum Thats a good thing

Ok i through a flouro up right next to the darkside. hopefully this will do the trick. theplant that is pictured by itself in my first post is really starting to look wierd. its individual fronds on each leaf are starting to fold in like tac shells. I just got done leeching it hopefully this will cure the problem. If anyone knows what this might be let me know. Ill try to get pics up tonight or tom. morning.
Thanks, C&W

So here are some updated pics. I hung mylar today hopefully this will help out more. The walmart emergency blankets are great. Pleas let me know what you think of the first 2 pics this is the plant Im having problems with.

Thanks, C&W

Well I think we have the start of some buds on the tops of 2 of them. At least thats what it looks like to me. Will try to post pics later. Still having roblems with that one plant though. I just don't get it. Please help.

Thanks, C&W

Hi mate, give her more water :thumbsup: this plant is biger and need more water

I think she has enough water. I have a water meter and it says shes moist/wet. I cut off some of the really curled leaves this seemed to work for the last one I saved so hopefully will see some change for the better here soon.

Its official we have a female. Shes our biggest plant so thats a good sign. We also have determined one definate male. An the second largest plant may be showing signs of male which would kinda suck but atleast we got one good female as of now. Say does anybody know a standard bud yield for a 5 foot plant? Just to get an idea.

Im kinda bored so Im gonna give a rundown of our setup if your at all interested.

Peat Pellets 3.00
12- 6" pots (for seedling) 12.00
7- 3 gallon buckets 8.00
Wal-Mart Moisture meter 5.00
Watering Can 4.00
2- Mylar Emegency Blankets 4.00
Drop cloths 4.00
Thermometer/Humdity (analog) 5.00
Water Resevoir (small trash can) 3.00

Miracle Gro pot soil 3 month feed 8.00
Growers choice Organic Potting Soil 9.00
Germination tray 6.00
20 watt Flourescent(germination) 14.00
400 watt HPS ballast/bulb/hood set 140.00 (ebay)
Chain (to hang hps) 5.00
Fan (salvation army) 5.00
Spray Bottle 3.00
Scissors 1.00
Maginfine glass 1.00

Grand Total 240.00

Its a pretty bare bones setup but it definately does the trick. Please let us know what you think.

Thanks, Brodi & Claude

The blankets rock. I'm getting one.. /dash

Well go figure out of the 20 seedlings we had at one point we end up with one female. Atleast it was our biggest plant. Shes hold steady and is about 2 weeks into flowering. Im just happy I learned a bunch and got some sort of smoke out of it. Nothin to be upset about its more of a hobby for me.

Anyway, Im definately purchasing seeds in the future. Im really looking into setting up a DWC system to grow fem Grapefruit seeds. With CFLs for vegging and 400 watt HPS for flowering.
