IMO anything crossed with Skunk is gonna be smelly - exhaust fan is how I solved that problem. My Super Skunk is pretty stinky and smells up the whole house any time I cut the fan off completely. I would encourage you to look into a stronger odor suppressant such as Ona gel blocks...
I love the smell though :D I just don't want it to smell anywhere besides my room. Would I put the ona gel blocks next to the plants? I might get something like that if my roommate starts to complain too much...although he is going away for winter break so I have almost a month where I don't have to worry about it.
I have attached a couple pics of the ladies, they are looking mighty fine :D
That last pic is one of my pure sativa plants...gotta love the node spacing :D I'm guessing it's so tight in there because of my HPS during veg? No complaints here :stoned:
Those look REALLY good.! Good work. :thumbsup: Keep it up. :jointsmile:
The ppms have dropped down to 590 now, the girls must be really hungry! The ph is at 5.5 and so on the 12th I am going to drain 5 gallons and add 5 gallons of RO water adjusted to 700, then add in the difference; and of course I won't forget to keep the ph around 5.6-6.0. I really want some koolbloom; I think it will help my girls, but I literally have no spending money right now so I must wait until next grow. Oh well, at least I know next grow will be better; it will be hard to fuck up this much twice :D
Oh, I have a question! Do you think that it would be cost effective to purchase some hydro flouros and turn off the HPS during veg or would it be better to have both the flouros and hps during veg and flowering?
Or, would it be worth it to get a mh bulb that would work on my ballast?
Or, should I just keep what I have; if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
The best thing to do.....in my personal opiinion only.....is to buy an mh conversion bulb for your hps ballast and use that during veg. Flouros WILL be cheaper but I personally have not been happy with them for vegging my plants. It will be more expensive to go with hps AND flouros but mh lighting is PERFECT for vegging and your plants will thank you by growing bigger and better for it with just one ballast. ;)
Use muratic acid. Like barely a drop not even a drop half a drop. Get distilled water from the store and keep a gallon of it. pH raises every 8 hours. If im wrong someone correct me?
Definitely get a MH conversion bulb. If you don't you will be sacrificing yield. IMHO.
Sweet, so a conversion MH bulb it is :D
I'm going to have to wait until I get some money but I should definitely have it by next grow. I'm happy to have another thing to help my yield next time around :)
SFGurrilla I'm not too sure what you were talking about. Could you explain what I would use muratic acid for? Thanks :)
Well, I'm going to go roll a joint out of shake. I hope I can get high off of stems and seeds LOL
Watch, tomorrow I'm going to be scraping all of my pieces and doing resin hits. God I can't wait until I don't have to do that; although I probably will because I'll just start smoking a lot more haha
cheers :) :stoned:
I think SF is referring to the title of the thread.....;)
LOL oh, my bad. So I woke up today and the ph was at 5.4 so with 5 drops of ph up my ph is now at 5.7. My ppms are at 590. The girls can't wait for the 5 gallon flush plus more nutes that they get tomorrow.
I have attached a couple pics I thought were kinda cool to look at.
I fell asleep last night before I finished rolling my J, so here I come :stoned:
Cm.....pick up some store bought 3% hydrogen peroxide at the market and add to your rez at 2 teaspoons a gallon. With your ph dropping that sounds to me like you are losing some roots there as a lower ph can signal roots dying off. The peroxide will help flush out any bacteria etc in your rez and give your plants an 02 boost as well. You can add it every 48 hours to rez to help with the roots, prevent mold and rot issues and add some oxygenation. ;)
Ps...do not use H202 if you are using a ZYME product. Unless you haven't mentioned something to me....you aren't.. :D
And you should start a grow log.....you've sort of outgrown this thread.. :thumbsup:
I agree, time to Graduate to a Grow Log! I'll look for you over there soon...Quote:

Ok so I made my grow log but it was when the forums were down so it's not there yet...
Anyways, my girls have chewed the ppms from 710 to 660 in 48 hours! I am following the regiment of upping every 3-4 days so I will again tomorrow to 800. The next time after that I'm thinking of a complete flush and then replacing the progrow with probloom nutes. the probloom will be around 400 or 500 and then 400 or 500 ppm of calmag.
How does that sound?
I will update and post my grow log after work...gotta go though much love!
If they are eating things down....keep upping them. Once you shift to bloom I'd like them to be at 1000.....CalMag 500 and pro bloom 500. They MAY even eat that number down so watch them carefully.......I'm sure you have been already. :thumbsup:
Weedhound,
I followed your advice and added some hydrogen peroxide a couple days ago and am going to add more again today.
I plan on upping the nutes to 800 and flushing 5 gallons either today, tomorrow, or the next day. It is finals week so my studies are unfortunately first priority right now.
Fortunately I am a huge procrastinator so I will most likely give more than enough attention to my ladies if you know what I mean haha...
I have been carefully pruning fan leaves that are covering bud sites to keep following my SCRoG instructions. Unfortunately as I was cutting one fan leaf using a razor I accidentally cut 75% through a stem with two bud sites above it!!! I was so sad I wanted to use that razor and cut my wrists (not really, but I did feel bad.) So I ended up taking the two bud sites and trimming them and now I am going to smoke them along with some primo hydroponically grown medicine :stoned:
I would upload better pictures but my girlfriend took her camera back because I forgot to delete all the old pictures and she was showing her mom pictures on her camera and her mom almost saw one of the pictures lol :D
NEW PICS! NEW LOG! Don't TEASE me with shots like that.....:( :D
I took pictures and posted in my grow thread; I will continue to post in there from now on...here's one of the pictures posted in my grow thread below...

oops.....sorry.....will book over there asap.....:(
Sorry my post came out very wrong!
I didn't post the pictures in my thread until you asked for new ones here, as I had to wait for my roommate to come home. When he did, I took pictures, posted on my grow thread, then posted here for anyone who wants to continue reading about my problems so they won't run into them :D
