Yeah they're starting to grow good now. Watch those roots and make sure they don't tangle together for when you move them to the bigger space. Also keep an eye out for pre-flowers....you may be getting close to that point once they stack on a bit more size.
When do I wanna throw them under 12/12 lighting? Another week? Tomorrow is the 5th week for the first 2 while the third will be on its 4th week.
I would wait at least 2-4 weeks. Let them heal and grow bit bigger and stronger.Quote:

No but your pics need to be more clear. Those plants look pretty damn good Krimet...good job bringing them back. :thumbsup:
Hey I think I see a preflower one of them.....the one with the dead lower leaves....I think I see a pre flower near your white yarn there.
Now Krimet.....stop playing with them and let them grow or you will stress in them into hermies or poor yield or something. The more you do all those things like lst etc the stress you put on the plants and yours need as little stress as possible.
Also watch where you tie them cause they can outgrow the string pretty fast and it will choke off your branch or stem or whatever you have tied there so check all your branches etc often to make sure they aren't being choked off.
Good luck.
Thanks a lot weedhound. You've been very helpful. I'm going to try and get clearer pics up asap.
Its the plant in the middle.....check the nodes along the main stem....I think I see a preflower on there.
I did a quick check and I have no clue on whats what really, it all looks like secondary leaf to me.
It looks like 2 little white hairs coming out from the node. The plant in the middle, third node up, on the left side in the photo. It helps to have a magnifying glass.....they are pretty small.
hey kremit, been quietly following your grow, n was wondering how your going to manage the heat issue in your flower room, i'm currently running a 400w hps in my closet with an oscilating fan and temps remain stable at about 80 degrees. major props for keepin your hydro grow goin. Good luck! :D
what up djmidnight, I haven't really done too much, but I have changed the light cycle to be off, and made the pump turn on a little more, during the hottest time of day,
Update

I believe the 3rd is showing a preflower of a piston, but it's too new for me to be sure. Camera sucks to much to get a shot of it up close.
Still not the best pic, anyone got a guess on the sex?, I cant really see hairs coming from it.

Update, while trying to lst a plant it snapped in half :mad:. Other plants looking great.
http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/k...et07/004-7.jpg
You are now a true grower Krimet....welcome. Branch snapping is a basic....:D
I don't really know your setup....but can when do you run your lights on....day or night?
I have heard of people running the lights at night and off during the day to try to assist with heat issues. Dont know if it would help you guys or not. Just a thought.....;)
thanks wh, i have already set my lights to turn on later in the day and it does help. btw I think I see my first hairs coming from the preflower on my nothern lights.
Update, not to sure but I think I have starting signs of root rot.

are your reservoir temps in the 80's also??
My grow room stays under 85 degrees, but barely, i've never actually taken a res temp, i'm guessing about 80
res needs to be around 70 or less to prevent root rot
no shit? I did not know the res could be too warm. I was always told you want it warm so the nutes flourish in the water.
Another thing, I noticed the root roting was only taking place in the air pocket of my res. Is that still from the heat?
Money is right Krimet.....80 is too warm. 70 is considered ideal in hydro....going up from there increases your chance of rot.
I personally think your roots look pretty good right there....there is SOME browning but that actually may be staining from your nutes.
Are you using a zyme product such as Cannazym, Hydrozyme or something similar? You really NEED something especially if your res temps are that high. It will help alot with keeping your roots healthy.
Also consider a good flush to help get rid excess salts, ferts etc that build up in your medium and cause their own issues with root rot, fungus, disease etc....
Krimet your plants look quite good. Good work and healthy, happy looking plants. :thumbsup:
I have only been using h2o2 like you said, 2ml per gal every other day.Should I also top my lst'ed plant so that it can focus on its secondary growth?
If you are into flower then no....don't top because you won't get more growth at this point...it will just stay gone. All your good topping chances are over. In looking at the photo above of your plants I see perhaps 3 leaves sticking out over buds that I would remove....the rest I would leave as is. They look great and will use those extra leaves later on for energy and nutrition.
I forgot I told you to use H202....are you using the hydro kind (35%) or the regular grocery store bought stuff (3%)? That will work for you for root health as far as killiing stuff off but is missing a few of the things in the zyme products. But i'd stay with your H202 for now since it seems to be doing a good job for you..
PS....Rinse the dark portion of your roots off with some plain H202/ph'd water and see if the brown stuff rinses off. I have a feeling it will. ;)
Would you remove any secondary leaves that are bigger and covering other bud sites.
Yes...as I said I see about three of them but you can also bend them under which is even better....I'm a very firm believer in the less is more prune theory. The other thing is your plant will change and grow daily. This is where I start getting into issues.....I pull a leaf and the next day I have to pull another one....next thing you know the plant is bald because every day it changes a little bit and grows a little more. So my rule generally is to bend it back out of the way if it will stay there great....if I have to bend it back daily for 3 days then I'll yank it. ;)
Update - got a fem clone from a friend, leaves do stand back up when under dome.

Cute clone.....what strain do you know?
Your plants are really coming along Krimet....good job!!
They told me it was called black indy, supposed lowryder cross. I also got a vial full of bubblicious x sage seeds.
Black Indy!! Sounds very exotic!! Good luck with her.
Big update - got 2 plants that were not being taken care of from a friend. Move 2 of my plants into the dwc tub. Also got my friends 400w hps light.
