Just leave the lsting alone until you need to tie them down again. You'll know when this happens, trust me! (you are trying to keep an even canopy, letting light evenly reaching the tops as best you can)
Also, I'm confused. I thought Envirolites were florescents? I'm obviously not from GB.
:jointsmile: Bree
lol hang on :) heres a link to what i bought
eBay.co.uk: GENUINE ENVIROLITE 125W GROW LAMP 6400K VEG (item 130095695745 end time 05-Apr-07 18:29:48 BST)
OMFG it is a Flourescent light lmao. Sorry about that. Guess I should get it closer then hehe.
Thats cool. My new sockets should be here by thursday if all goes well. Will update with new light setup then. Please feel free to help me still I will be checking this thread constantly.
Btw when do I take a clone of a plant?
Surpisingly sockets came today! Here is my new setup and there is another light behind the big one :)
When do I clone my plants?
good looking grow you've got there:thumbsup:
I'm thinking there is gonna be a lot of heat produced so now seriously looking for a new fan.
About cloning.... When do I do it?
Oh Oh Oh and i've had some spiders building webs around the lights, shall I let them settle there as they may capture the bugs or shall I remove them and if so with what pesticide?
cant remember if you said it but this is your first grow correct...your plants should really start taking off now.....what is your light schedule right now? there should be days were you dont look at the plants and when you come back they look like they have exploded with growth....thats how it was for my plant....AMAZING how much they can grow in a 12 to 15 hour period. I just put my plant into flowering last night at 9pm.....if its a girl i will get you some picks, if its a boy imnot even gonna fuck with getting a camera....looks like my topping method will produce AT LEAST 4 main colas....this should be fucking sweet.....im gonna get a T5 with some bloom bulbs soon...the only problem is i can get the light fixture at a hydro shop with cool 6500k bulbs but now i have to order 3000k or 3500k bulbs for the bloom cycle....hopefully this wonttake too long. I have to wait till i get paid to get the light and order the bulbs so by the time I am certain of sex i should have my complete bloom setup....if any of you are curious about T5 plus cfl grows and what your final yeild can be, i recommend tracking my post i will start a log once i determine if i have a female on my hands...also check out BOBBONG's cfl grow ....SIMPLY AMAZING what he did with these lights...if you cant use hps like myself CFL and T5 are the next bast option and with advanced topping and LST techniques you CAN produce a very descent yeild and quality bud. I know it isnt ideal but with practice its possible, dont listen to alot of these people who insist on having HPS for personal grows, yes it is better and easier but if you simply cant deal with the heat because of confined spaces than you gotta do it this way...it is very irritating to here people say you need a 600w HPS for 2 plants in a cabinet....get good cfls and effective reflection and you can make it happen...
cool well I only have CFLs and HPS really isn't an option.
I'm on a 18/6 schedule and I will water tomorrow and check on the weekend.
Please post up the url to ure thread so I can track it. Very busy atm so will check when I can thanks for advice and maybe we can help eachother.
Turns out my plant was a boy, hate seeing those fucking balls, but the good news is I just got 10 free papaya seeds from my friend and he also gave me the Indoor Marijuana Horticulture by Jorge Cervantes so ill be germing the new papaya tonight and start all over again.....ill still get my t5 so i should have a quick and healthy veg cycle and lets pray to god these are girls cuase this is some goooooood seed..

seed is also very good since its a short plant so it should be awesome for my cab...hope to get a mother and CLONE CLONE CLONE!
Sounds awesome, How many are you going to do at a time? 2?
Still someone tell me when to clone lol? and about my spider problem above.
You can cloone when you find out the sex of the plant......this makes since because you dont wanna waste time cloning males......also it is best to wait until you know which plant is the strongest....ie...naturally disease resistant with strong roots and healthy stem and also produces quality yeild.....wait till you find a good strong female and clone her...once my grow is started I plan on keeping a mother and constantly have two plants vegging and two plants flowering......to do this i can clone a mother or hopefuly any of the females that are in the flowering box.....once i get one female and can produce strong plants regularly i shouldnt need a mother and can just clone from the new flowering plants......wait till sex is determined is the answer...
