Here We Try Again

After a sad attempt at Hydro. we thought we try soil and it seems to be working good and r in our 5th week and just put them under 12 / 12 to flower. We r using a 400 watt h.p.s. for flowering.
We r using our favorite soil at this time. M.G. with fert. added for a 3 month grow. Before the flowering stage we did add some 3 step liquid Fert.s for a little kick and it did seem to work. Water once a week as needed and hope for some good results.

If all goes well with this grow , we hope to get another light and expand the grow back to hydro and do 24 plants as we r now recleaning all of our hydro. supplies. We r using a unused bathroom at this time and will take out toilet and lay wood on floor for more space for rubbermaid tubs for hydro setup. We have been reading up more and more on hydro and seem to find where we messed up at and will retry after this grow at hydro.

Best if luck widchick hope you have better luck this time around theae will take of during flower.What type light did you use for veg. br safe the postman.

using 3 Compact Fluorescent Lights and keep them on the plants for around 1 1/2 weeks and then switched over to the 400 watt m/h light for
2 1/2 weeks and just put them under the 400 watt h.p.s. light to flower.

We think in the future we will start them out using Compact Fluorescent Lights as they seem to love them and we got a better grow with them as we keep them close to the plants and they seem to spread better and just looked a lot better then using the m/h in the beginning.

they look healthy enough get ready for them taking of during flower.I myself use both fluro tubes and mh for veg and imo some strains prefer the fluros to the mh dont no why this is .i use the fluro tubes for clones and seedlings now.anyway best of luck with this grow i know the probs that occur with hydro lol been going through some myself i will be sure to check in on ur thread to watch ur progress . be safe and best of luck the postman.

looking nice! :)

Wild, have you been to that hydro store in Laurel ? If so, do they maintain a good stock of nutes (GH), and general growing supplies ? Dont need lights or dro equipment or stuff like that.

Yea we went there one day and it was kinda cool, but the owner is a real Pr#$@#$K and we left, hell we felt like we was criminals in there and did not belong. Or it was the fact he never seen two chicks come in there to buy things, so we left and never went back and just order off-line or there is another store in Pasadena that we go to at times and a Chick owns it , so it is kinda cool and we can relate on the woman's level.

I myself am working on my second grow and also put my seedlings under floros- just moved them to mh last night.

Good Luck, and Keep us updated!

under the H.P.S. Makes on the plants.. and to believe we r doing nothing special to them, not testing water, not ph. or nothing and we even went as far as adding gh food. to them during veg. once and just added gh. for blooming to them and they r in M.G. with food for 3 months too. So when they say it can't be done like this , here is the proof it can be with a little LOVE.

F.Y.I. These r two different type of plants as u may noticed?? what we do not know ??? LOL...
