Nice lady bugs... plant may be close to Over watering... leaves look a loittle droopy... she looks good otherwise...
I think the nut question.. really depends a lot on what kind of soil you have used... what came in the soil ... its stock contents...
You are probably safe starting a light nut regiment... something that is heavy in Nitrogen..... If you are going to use CFLs for the entire grow, you should probably clone in the next week (7-10 days) and consider flowering in the next 14-17 days...
I don't think the burns on the outer edge on a coupple of your leaves is from too much nuts.. It really looks a lot more like a light burn.. I know the light is not close enough to burn it... but it looks like a light burn.. what can I say.. : )
a nut burn will start at the tip of the leaf.... and a nut defciency in proper PH'd medium will not usualy spot until the leaves become real light... they will become a very light green..
just like over nuting will make leaves turn a dark green before burn shows... unless of course you over nuted them by a shit load!!
: )
the end
Hey Thanks for the answer Garden Knowm, well i kinda thought i might of
over watered her tonight about 2hrs after i waterd her she started to droop.
ph is 6.5 as far as the soil mix it didnt have any nutes in it it was just some
off brand soil. i am planning to use peters 20 20 20 & Superthrive
tell me if you think that will be ok .
and as far as the lights i plan to use the CFL's for the whole time i have
6 of them i backed them off when she started to droop down i thought it was a heat issue so i left the door open and backed them off alittle.
Cloning i am not sure on how to do that not sure if i want too or not it depends on how much jepordy it will put her in i am going to have to read
some on that matter. thank you for the any and all the info you offer
You can bring the cfls down to 1/2 an inch.. and you should definitley keep them no farther than 1 inch... they are not droopng because of the lights, you should have a fan blowing.. it doesn't even need to be on the plants... with cfls, you just want the air moving.. no matter how light..
super thrive??? I am not familiar.. but should be fne.. you should start very very light...
cloning is easy... just a little awkward the first time you do it.. nobody like to take a razor blade to their DARLING GIRL!! lol
do you have access to rockwool cubes?
Actually, do you have acess to a hydro store....?
you ideally will have
a razor blade
root gel/power
rockwool cubes
wilt spray
I have a picture diagram that I a making for my next project and it would be cool for you to check it out and see if it works for you.. : )
: ) - SMB
No i dont have any i will go to the hydro shop that is an hour away and get some rockwool cubes rootgel & wiltspray thanks for all the infoQuote:

yeah, she looks a lot better. and bigger.
you may want to get a cloning tray and a lid... they are very very cheap at home depot.. 5 bucks or so.. eventually you will have a collection of these around your house... LOL
yeah i will i will pick all the stuff up tomorrow have a Dr's appt so i will get it
then.
By the way here is a pic of the hermie plant i got these seeds from and
a pic of the buds there was 22 SEEDS on this whole Plant and i have every 1 of them My Cousin grew this plant
Too much nutes will burn her little toes off! I use a good quality soil and give nutes every 2wks, never over fertalize it doesn't do any good. When you water her you don't water the leaves with the lights on do you? this can cause burning??
Looks like a good plant, good luck with your growing!
hey Caroline i dont pour water on the leaves at all i may start to mist her in the future. with plain water +alittle Superthrive.but that would be all. She hasnt gotten any nutes yet in about 3-4 days i will give her her first dose
of Peters 20 20 20 @ 1/8 strenth + Superthrive 1/4tsp per Gal & 18/6 Lights
Fan on while lights are on

hey mark.... looks like ski uses superthrive and he doesn't nut until flowering.. check out the link.. sounds like he knows what he is doing...
: )
nice pics!!!!
Well Garden Knowm. I Have Decided that i am not going to take a clone from
this plant i dont realy have the space to grow it or the light setup. i think
i might flower her on 11/14/05 that will be 45days Veg. i am going to water
her tommorow with her first shot of nutes. i am going keep a close eye on the ph
i check the ph of the water then i check the ph in the soil after the water.
..1st if you overwater you can help this by blowing fan down onto plants, this will help(a little) todry out soil...Quote:

3rd...Superthrive is great...I would reccommend you invest in a 2-part or a 3-part nute progaram from general hydroponics or Advanced nutrients and add superthrive...Superthrive is B vitamis and Hormones for growth through stress.
.In between adding nutes in your regimen, you can add superthrive to ph'd water and use it alone for healthy watering...
.....so I don't have to make 2 posts...GK stated that you didn't need to have your fan on the plants using cfl's, because of the low heat...OK, that is true...However, The reason you 'DO' blow fan directly on plants at this stage is to strenthen the stalk of the plant through air stimulation...imho...
Sorry, I didn't catch you before you went shopping, but you are on the right track...hope this helps...
Just gave her her first dose of Nutes + Superthrive she is 21 days old short and Bushy :D She Smells Wonderfull going 12/12 @45days
Day 23: she had her 2nd dose of 1/8strenght nutes + Superthrive yesterday
morning had to move light up 1'' thismorning.. how do you think she looks ?
