hey jst built this gro box, im not new to growin abit of ganj but new to dooing it in dooors, my set up im useuing a 300 watt cfl duel spec, for both veg and flowering, i got two feminised seeds on the go, great white shark and lemon skunk from green house seeds, erm is there any thing im misssing in my grow box? cheeers
Do you have any form of Intake or exhaust to deal with fresh air intake and heat/humidity outflow?
maybe it's your camera angle bud,but your light looks like it pretty damn high to be starting plants under.
HI MATE THE ONLY INTAKE AND OUT TAKE ARE JST VENTS the 300 watt dnt produce alot of heat but i jst got a fan to flow the air around and four vents in the wall to let fresh air in and crap air out, i got sum new piks, the big one is great white shark and the small one is lemon. u never would of fault it but the little one is the same age as the big one, wot do u fink myt b rong wif it?? there just under a month old, on 18/6 no nutes yet jst plant food from the compost, is this good for a months grow? should i be bigger? has anyone ever used a 300 watt cfl before? wots ur opioin on the two ? thanks
:rastasmoke:
Nice plants greenthumb, i dont think i have ever seen such big and wide fan leaves that early into a grow!
I also use a 300 watt cfl and have it about 2 inches above my plants. You need to lst your plants to keep them short because cfls light penetration isnt very good and this will cause the buds at the bottom on the plant to be very small.
thanks mate, how long u bin useing the 300 watt cfl?? wots the end results like? good quality bud? av u got any piks of the bud u grew with it? so should i lower the light so its closer? how long would u say i got till i can switch to 12/12? i mean its 4 weeks so far.. wot did u mean by "You need to lst your plants " cheeers for replying mate x
I have used it for my previous grow which is on here, if you click on my profile and view threads you can see my old one and current one, there are pics on there. I changed to a red 250watt cfl to flower but the 300 watt is very good for vegetation. You can lower the lights, if you can put your hand on top of your plant and your hand doesnt burn your plants wont, so use that as a rule of light height when using cfls. Lst is low stress training, you can also find a thread i posted on that on my profile.
Hope everythin is still goin good with the gyals!
hey mate thnx 4 helping me out.. Jst a few questiöns.. Wt dus fim mean? Wen do u rekon i shud stik em in flowerin? Wt mircle gro fert did u use in vegative stage i need 2 get sum.. Wt fert do u use 4 flowerin? Thnx matey
There are threads about fimming, topping, and LST in the FAQ's here: Grow FAQs - Cannabis Forums Message Boards - Medical Marijuana, Cannabis Club, Dispensary, News
I'd get some nutrients made for specifically for cannabis. If you can't, then try to match the N-P-K ratios with what you decide to buy. For example, my Canna soil nutrients are Canna Terra Vega 3-1-4 (for veg) , Canna Terra Flores 2-2-4 (for bloom).
cheers mate i orderd the terra veg yestaday.. Gta w8 3 days.. U eva tried ne fin 2 pak on the w8 at the end ov the harvest i gt sum stuf calld big bud any gud? Cheers 4 the advice
I use a "PK boost" (Actually called 'Plagron Green Sensation Top Activator'... got it for free :D) in addition to the Canna Terra Flores bloom nutes. My PK boost is 0-9-10 if I remember correctly. Canna makes a similar one but I think it's 0-13-14. I get by with these three.
hi mate here are some more piks i took today i swear they grow like mad, only a week ago i changed the pot on both and now gotta do it agen, when do u think they be ready for flowering another few weeks? nice grow btw mate i ad a look at ur thread, i use on my out door grow ppk 13 14 two weeks before end of harvest, erm i got piks of two of the fertilizer one to use when flowering and the big bud for the end of the harvest or did i get it rong? ere the piks of the plants they look ok, should i still use lst on em? thanks mate
Dang man, i need to get my light out, which is pretty much the same looking light. Need to get a new bulb at HD for 20 bucks. Looks like its working great to get 2 plants vegged pretty well. Not kicking your skills my man:what: Iv put it off thinking mine were good, but for just a few bucks would add a lot to my giddy-up.:dance:
Man your plants look great:clap::clap: I read the thread and missed what your planning to flower with, um or did you say both. Il tell ya, some different light spectrum's with your current light would help a lot id say:thumbsup:. Just a thought, i tend to push the cfl's because they worked well for me and there cheap. I read some great thread about mixing up the light spectrum's in flower and this would be easy for you. Il bet you see it in my next thread.
Plants look great man. I hope they did get fem cuz males grow faster and your one plant is huge for its age. Or, its just luvin that light:woohoo:
Keep er green man:weedpoke:
:rasta:
hey mate cheers for the reply init, a new light for 20 bucks man dat sound cheap there quite expensive over here.. yeh mate i def av a butch at your next thread is that ur outdoor grow one? out door rules.. im flowering with the same light its a duel spectrum init.. u good with fertilizers? can you tell me wot them two ferts are for?, i was stoned lasr nyt and realised i think i made a mistake, yeh therre fem got feminised seeds, thanks for your reply mate, gonna change both there pots 2day as there pot bound i take a few mor piks later today got a busy day... cheeers matey
I think you could veg for a couple weeks, but up to you really. LST helps when using lights that don't have good penetration like CFL's, so you may want to look into it. Could probably start in a couple days. Just don't train too much at once... little bit every few days.Quote:

PK is meant for the middle stages of flowering, CannaBoost is only an additive, not a nutrient CANNABOOST and should be used throughout flowering. Here's the Canna feeding schedule CANNA TERRA FEEDING SCHEDULE
The Big Bud (feeding schedule here) is for weeks 2-4 of flowering. I don't know much about Advanced Nutrients except that they are expensive.
If I were you I'd get the Canna Terra Flores, the Canna PK 13/14 (if you don't have it already) and stick to the schedule above.
hey bruva :) looking very nice. keep the updates coming :) and btw im gonna start my thread up 2night :) cya sxc:jointsmile:
You might look this post over really well, because Finn gives some great advise and he's got a great thread on LST, if you want a method thats not real hard, but will give you a great yield. He also knows about these nutes and gave you every bit of info ya need:thumbsup:Quote:

Supposed to be used for 1 or 2 weeks once it starts showing flowers/hairs. I've been using the PK from Plagron, had problems when I used it too much and too long into flowering though...Quote:

so u use canna terra flores all the way through accomponied by pk 13 14? the two ferts above the boost is an additive use with the canna terre flower ? and the big bud to use after? sorry if i annoy u mate the charts are confusing kinda understand the top chart but the big bud one... mate nice buds u grow pro weed... how long u bin doing it for? wot was the smoke like and how much did u get? do u no how to make hash? cheers for replying, i took a pik today and she looked abiut depressd, leafs were flopping down..
That was from my first attempt at growing :jointsmile:
I'm pretty much a newb still, but have picked up a lot of info along the way. The potency was up there with some of the best, taste was... eh, not cured right. But TW is not known for its taste anyways. Yield was about 60g dried. Used a 400w hps the whole way.
So basically if you have an 8 week flowering strain, use Canna Terra Flores for weeks 1 through 7. Use the PK in weeks 3 & 4. Flush at the end of week 7 with plain ph'd water. Harvest at the end of week 8. That's all you need for flowering IMO. The CannaBoost can be used all the way through flowering until harvest, so it can actually be part of your flush (that's how I understand it). Never used it though...
I won't comment on the Big Bud since I never used it either. It's generally not recommended to mix nutrient brands, as you may be doubling the nutrients the plant needs.
thanks agen mate 4 the info u helped out alot.. Cheers agen mate.. I get rid ov the bb and giv it 2 me bro.. Wtz the 400 wt lyk 4 consuming electricity?

Hey man you might want to read the thread in Finns sig, called LST. Its a great thread to learn from, cuz Finn explains in good detail and im sure he would help ya out. I have never tried a LST yet, but i have one that i will be experimenting with this summer.Quote:

:rasta:
yeh i read his thread about it. soon as him and charbud suggested it... jst a few questions the soil that them babys are in already contaion plant food, i received the ferts finntop suggested terr veg and flores, should i use veg at half strength to avoid nute burn or will it be ok? and on cloning leave em at least 3 or 4 weeks till feeding em? do u tihnk its worth gettin a ph and moisture metre?
ye there are nuff thieves about. Might give it a go, start it off inside them move her out. Must have been sum big plants if they were worth 2 g ! also with the lst, dont be afraid to do it on ur big ones, plants are well bendy. Well the early you start the more bendy they are, if you let em get too big it mite be too late..good luck±!!
I wouldnt bother with the moisture meter as you can tell when the plant needs watering by touching the soil..everyone one on here will say to get a ph meter though, i have neveer used one but i might be stupid for not
yea dats true mate.. I b up dere dis sat 2 trY lst on the babys.. Do u no if a plant iz pot bound dus it affekt yield.?
