round 2: second grow [LOTS O PICS]

since the plants have been vegging for about 2 months is it ok if i flip over to 12/12 now?

any other input please?

Hey, man. Looking better, but still seems like you have an over/under- watering problem. Those leaves are too droopy. Otherwise, they look much better! :)

Yes, you can flip them now if you like. Good luck.


The Fog :rastasmoke:

i know theres a problem with the water, im not sure what it is, i dont think it matters, tell me if im wrong, but i will water them, the plants will get droopy and then a couple hours later they are perky and ready to go again, so i philosophized (haha spelled that wrong) that since they get better and actually grow even more even though they do have the droopyness for a little but, it doesnt matter since they always go back to being good, vs dieing or something

i just switched them to 12/12 so tonight will be the first 12 hour night cycle followed by a 12 hour day cycle

DO YOU THINK I SHOULD CHANGE THE LIGHT BULBS TO MY PREVIOUS ONES?

i have (4) 42watt=150 watt cfl's that put out 2600 lumens each

i also have (2) 150 watt plant lights

should i use any of those six bulbs or should i keep the cool 6500k bulbs i have on them for flowering?

also should i transplant? will it dramatically help my yield?

thanks for all the help guys check out the past couple posts for pics and updates

no one will ever guess what i just picked up right in time.... a 250 watt hps hood ballast and bulb 250 w hps for 50 bucks from a friend i set it up and its set on 12/12 i'll get pics soon

i got a 250 hps, how can i keep temp down with only fans? whats the best way to place them and so that i get circulation and coolness in my closet?

now that they are on 12/12 and have an hps do i need to water them differently? right now i water them every 2 or 3 days with shultz 10-15-10 in the water for nutes, it seems to work really good for me

do i NEED to transplant? or can i still get a fair amount of yield in the present 6" pots?

and last, what can i use to get rid of the smell thats relatively cheap?

pics:
1. ballast to new 250 watt hps light

2. fan to cool ballast, there are like 4" fans prob, i have 2 of them, one on each side of ballast

3. set up

4. plants and light

5. plants

any comments?

hi azn you saved ur plants at the last moment they looked like s**t and now they look fine good job nice grow here. you are nuting them too much. use nutes only once a week or your plants will burn thats what that burn is. you got them on 12/12 right? if not get them 12/12 already :) also dont let any any any what so ever light in the room while there in the dark 12. hope to hear these are ladies and not he-ladies heheh:D

haha yeah thats the truth, ok i'll chill with the nutes lol, yeah they just started 12/12 like a week ago, im doin my best not to let light in, its a little hard though because my closet is right in the middle of the room, im going to rig something tonight to fix that though

im also going to transplant and mix in this soil my friend gave me, its just some sort of soil that when u mix with ur normal soil its suppose to give the marijuana a fruity taste... hopefully it works

thanks for the help whisky

i'll update it later today, anyone else have comments?
