Comes a Time, First Grow, Please Step Inside -- 2000 watt Sour Diesel

Thanks Cruz, usually my temps are higher during lights on, but like I said sometimes my r/h gets a little high at night, and I use my fan more so it at times can get just a few degrees cooler than lights off temps - not often though.

Identified my problem with the redding/purpling of some veins/leaves as a nitrogen difficency. Bought some nitrate from the store which should cure it quickly! Pictures coming either tonight or tomorrow...

Just gave the babies some nitrate, hopefully it helps - read it will within a few days I believe? Also used half reverse osmosis water this time (half tap) which cut my PPM almost in half. PPM of my water prior to adding nutes was 260 and I brought it to 1050 with nutes. Last time I used 850 PPM water, but 450 of that PPM was due to the tap water. So my logic is I am adding more nutrients, but the PPM of the tap was cut in half so that's fine right? Does that question make sense?... lol Anyhow, will update soon with pictures - hopefully they make a speedy recovery from the Nit. diff.

P.S Is anyone still watching? It's so weird that my thread got three times the attention during veg as during flowering! LOL. Hats off to all who have stopped by, and especially those who have lent the helpful hand... come back soon!!

of course we're watching... it's not my fault you've got it going on ;)

pix please...

love, kp:p

Pictures coming tomorrow KP, you just wait and see! I bumped my PPM to 1050 tonite, hopefully they can handle it... if not it's flush time! Gotta push the ladies a bit right? Pictures to come within a day or so. Love you all!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, razza. Yea, we're watching. I haven't posted much on your thread, but I've been keeping up with it. Can't miss the name (so long) when it pops up on the top of the page. :) I don't remember seeing you visit my thread either...but I may be wrong. ;)

The plants are looking good to me, bro. Glad you decided to trim the bottom growth off. That will help focus your energy and also contribute to better air circulation around the plants, which is important. Hope that nitrogen boost helps your girls out and hope they can take the nutes like champs. Sounds like the dehumidifier is doing what it's meant to do...that's great too. :)

Looking forward to new pics, man.

Indeed! Thanks for coming by , I visit your thread but haven't posted much... sometimes I feel like for me to give advice or even to comment sometimes is a bit hard since I'm trying to get the basics down.

Couple quick questions here gang!

I have my babies in three gallon pots, and they are wayyy taller than I had once anticipated - 3 feet and a few inches for most of em. I think they are have stopped growing vertically though, so I believe the rule of thumb is one gallon per foot of plant growth. Should be alright, dont ya think?

Secondly, I just went over to the buddys house that I got the clones from, and he said I am 100% going to need to stake them up because they tend to get too heavy for the stems to hold. I def. do not want to hang strings from the ceiling as it will be a HUGE pain in the ass. Is it ok to just put a stake deep in each plant and then tie the top of the plant to the stake? I would assume this would prevent the plant from falling over?

No signs of the nitrogen diff. going away just yet, only gave them the nitrate a day ago though - have to be patient. They seem ready for another watering tomorrow, so hopefully within a week I will stop seeing the yellowing of the leaves, and purple stems (though I believe the purple could also be from low temps) Anyhow, thanks!

yeah, use multiple steaks to hold up all the heviest colas. i didnt do this with my plants do to the fact they were almost done when the colas had that much weight. and as for your pots, it depends on your hydro settup. i dont see how you could get root bound with hydro but i never grown hydro.
