Thanks man i appreciate it....im glad that the white powder isnt to bad it had me worrying....im going to be adding some ventilation in there within the next couple days...i have a hole in my wall that leads to the outside...will post picture so people ccan help me with ideas
The little cabinet is the grow room right now...(i Know its to small for flowering,Making flowering room) and theres more closeups of the one u can see it on the most
This shows the Growth in all 3 plants...Its funny all plants were put in same time germinated the same...But one Big ones Medium And ones small...Big 1 is starting to show most potential...Pray for female....Also I posted the pics of the whole by my grow room any ideas i was thinking tubbing but will that help.
Posting both days at once sorry got behind....A question on my medium plant the fist two marijuana leaves to grow have color difference its getting lighter...Is it getting burnt...????pics included
Also notice how my big and small plant are blooming on the bottom leaves now but my medium plant thought bigger then small one is advancing less quick....???
Plants are growing more...Still have discoloration on bottom leaves?is this normal...Please GIVE FEEDBACK...I dont want my babies to die..:thumbsup:..Medium plant is growing slower and slower while rest are doing greeat...
As long as the new growth looks healthy then there shouldn't be anything to worry about, looking good from what I can see :thumbsup:
Also make sure those CFL's are 1-3 inches from the plants maximum. They look a little stretched, you could fill in a couple inches of your container with soil.
Thanks for the Help i appreciate it. The lights are about 1inch but i think i need more to help growth...Ive been looking for nutes for vegging and 1 have any the recommend
Big Ones growing great...One doesnt seem to be growing any bigger...hope for the best....on the leaf thats starting to fade theres like a burn mark or something...Any one tell what it is?(check first picture):(
two of them are growing good little Leaves ones not at all is that bad....Also should i snip the bottom leaves in half to help other growth....Advice appreciated?
I would try to avoid snipping any leaves, I'm not pro so if you have been successfull with this before then go for it. I was advised not to cut anything off of the plant that isn't dead already because it will help the plant photosynthesis? Maybe one of the more experienced guys can chime in and help you out but i wouldn't cut.
Man what i got to do to get some feedback:jointsmile:
Don't worry acd, grow logs get pretty quiet in the early stages.
Your plants are looking great :thumbsup:
Don't worry about a yellowing leaf, usually means it's not getting light and the plant is using up it's stored energy. Don't trim, once it gets becomes totally yellow you can give it a slight tug and it should come off easily. If it wants to stay attached, leave it alone :jointsmile:
Thank you very much...I was a little worried about that....i was thinking maybe under nutrient...just added one of the germinated seeds into soil....will post pics soon
Dude your plants look great:thumbsup: just keep up what your doing. Leaves get yellow sometime and burnt, because the plant will grow into the lights from time to time, because you need to keep the cfl's close. Iv been using
26w cfl's and there great. Then when you flower 23w warm lights with your others will give both spectrum's needed to get a good grow. Even if you used a ton of 26wters you will have a good grow, the 27k warm spectrum is just a bit better iv heard, and i just added 4 of the 23w warm and they have been budding for a while now. In my opinion, just try to keep em on the dry side and water when needed, when pots are lite.
:weedpoke: Keep er green man :rasta:
how do i post my own pics???
Thanks for the help.....I found a bigger cabinet then the one im using now and alot better....im going to put up mylar and add lights....I was thinking of buying 1 250w hps light bulb and putting it in the top with the cfls on bottom....Is that a good idea???? and do 250w hps light bulbs need different size light socket
oh yeah go to left side and use post reply...then look for paper clip
A 250hps can not be screwed into any socket. You will need a ballast that will fit a 25w. Most people buy the light with the ballast together. You can find them on ebay, but there not cheap, maybe 200-350bucks. Im not sure, iv never bought one, but have seen them on ebay. Also, there are sites you can get them on line.Quote:

Good uck my man:rasta:
when should i tie down the stem so i can minimize height...
Now I think would be the best time to start LST'ing. http://boards.cannabis.com/indoor-gr...ining-lst.html
Here is a nice post about LST'ing and when to do it. From the looks of your plants, now would be the best time because you only have about 3-4 internodes from what I can see on day 20. If you don't want to LST like the diagrams shown, you can always tie them back which is a form a LST, just a lil different.
Your plants look real good, I like the hps idea but only for flowering. hps on the top and cfl's on the bottom would be beautiful. Keep doin what your doin, find a nice water cycle that the plants like, start minimal on nutes to see how the plants react because you'll find that later on, one may not like full strength nutes, and one might. That how it was for me. One ate nutes like you wouldn't believe, and one was very sensitive. Best of luck, if you don't mind i'm gonna pull up a chair. My first grow is just about finished and i'd like to see how other people are doing to get ideas for my next grow to make it even better!!!:thumbsup:
edit: here's a pic of what I did of LST and then tying back one of my plants a few weeks into veg. hope this helps!!
got alot of good feedback today just got some nuts today to...i was looking for 20-10-10 but all i found was 10-15-10 what do u think think it will work????? Well i did the LST method tell me wht u think....
Nice, lst looks good, now just continue to follow the diagram and when there are a few more internodes then start to wrap it around the pot.
Your 10-15-10 is good for flowering, high in phosphorous. You need fert high in nitrogen for veg. Go to home depot and they have a lot of miracle grow fertz that you can get that are high in nitrogen. Fox farm products are good as well. I use all three and they seemed to have worked for me. If no stores have it around you, a lot of places online have it.
