SeedKing's 1st Grow Northenr Lights/ W Rhino

1.Well the 400Watt MH is far superior to the 40Watt Cool white bulbs, I was using.. This was expected..now obviously I am just going by looks... but the runt, which I had thought about killing doesnt look like its a runt anymore.. its start to grow normal, its still the smallest of the bunch but is looks like it will catch up..

2. There is an heat issue, but I have a fan blowing between the light and the canopy and I also have a fan blowing out hot air from the top.. I can't add a A/C unit...

3. Using Fox Farm BIG Grow.. the bottle says use 1 teaspoon every water, this is their weak solution.. I started with 1/4 of that, now I am at 1/2.. This Saturday I will be at 1/1.. I didnt want to burn them, I dont see any problems yet.. but I belive in following the bottles direction so they will get the 1/1.. there is also 2-3 drops of Superthrive in the water... the bottle say 1/4 a teaspoon for full size plants, so I am going to wait until they are a little taller.. Seems like I have to water a lot, the blowing fan and the heat dries out my Perlite/Soil mix quickly.. so Water well every other day, and then every day in the morning I mist the top just to keep it moist.. overwatering is an easy thing to do, so I am playing it close, I will back off if I see any problem..

4. Still hoping to get to 18 Inches, I think if I would have used 400Watt MH sooner... I would have bigger plants, I was just playing it safe

Oh come on, I took the rocks off didn't I? :D lol... And yes, you may not think yourself a fool when posting... But when it turns into an argument and someone's thread get's trashed (Which it HASN'T yet) they certainly do. That's why I hope star has the sense not to reply. This is SeedKing's thread. From now on, if anyone has a problem, please post a seperate thread titled, "Bull Shit." And MB...

AMEN :)

SK, your plants are lookin' good man, keep it up, and yeah, overwatering is easy as FUCK :o It took me a death or two before I relized this. I hope you babes grow up big and strong.. What are all of their names? Good grow, keep us updated.

Peace :D

as far as overwatering is concerned if you maintain them on a daily basis, its ok if you let them wilt slightly (slightly) then when they recieve water they perk right up.

If a plant wilts it means it's going through stress. Undo stress can and has caused hermies. There's no reason to let your plants wilt. FWIW

Nothing new just a 22 day pic of Hermosa.. Babies are growing.. gotta control heat.. Came home it was 96 in there..DAMN...

Well my thread sucks, I really wanted to show people what I was trying to do. My attitude has always been, when you are doing something that you are a novice at, listen to those who say they know.. not to take all their advice, just to get other peoples opinion. This is why I don't get involved in all the other B/S.. I appreciate all help.. So with that said. I will still maintain this, I think a Newbie, like myself, will learn from whatever the outcome is. I'm high.. so work with me..

Day 24

1. I wish HARDDON was still here, he always had something to say.. Alot of haters on here that take growing weed too seriously.. man its just a plant.. Enough of that

2. Hermosa, is growing slowly, I was expecting faster growth, but they are growing.. the plan was always to grow to 18 -24 inches (closer to 18) .. I want them all to be 18 atleast if possible.. 400Watt Converter bulb is helping, I think what I will do is order a TRUE Metal Halide light... 600 Watt if I have the balls do to this again... PARANOID AS FUCK!!!!!!!

maybe time for some nutes? try some co2 you can make your own co2 by putting 4 cups of sugar in a gallon of water with some brewers yeast(or you can add a few drops of your own urine) or you can just spray the plant with some seltzer water. I would think if you have a 400w bulb on there, that that's not the problem.

yeah them stupid fucks are hijacking your thread
