Thety are looking very droopy..!
Are you maybe overwatering??
not overwatering them . i have a moisture meter, i read in another thread that the hps bulbs would do this to the plant but the mh brings them back to life is this true? i have a 1000w hps, 2x3x7 grow box, light is 27" of the top of the plants. any advice anyone?
I have no idea!:o
I'm at veg stage in my first grow..! so my knowlege in flower, is VERY limmited..!:p
I'm growing under a 400W HPS, and every thing is going swell for me!:)
switching over to 400w mh tomorrow, for a month, then come back to the 1000w hps for the flowering part
Yes use MH for now.
had to take out the 1000w hps and put 400w mh in. they were getting worst under the 1000w hps , dehydration was starting some of the bootom leafs dried out . so i started CPR feed them peters 20-20-20. misted them down real good and seems as though theyre bouncing back. any suggestions on this update? pic 1 was 7inches last post. 12inches. pic 2 was 7 and now 11, and the small one was 4 now 7. in pic 5 could this be a female?
Those are only preflowers..! to early to tell!:)
But, you can always go over into the FAQ section to see the sexing chart!:)
Yes it is too early ;) but lets hope for the best , the MH sure took care of things huh... youre plants are looking nice and healthy :D
thank you, when should u start the 12/12 cycle , when the plants are 1foot and a half ,or 2 feet tall?
Hello Mobay :) I can't see anything to indicate the gender yet but they are looking much much better under the MH :)
You can start on the 12/12 cycle whenever you wish, I tend to start about a foot and a half so that I end up with plants about three feet. However it's all down to persnonal preference ;)
love mand xxx :)
I agree with Mand. They look really good now. Just think soon you'll have some nice buds brother. :)
thanks Mand and Trichome cant wait. i will go with the foot and a half , to get the 3 foot plant. this will take place next week.
lookin good mate
the plants are in their 5th week from seed. when is a good week to start flowering on 12/12 with 400w hps, to get that nice bud. ANYONE
when the nodes start to alternate is a good sign usually after the 7th node i think it is or over 12inchs dependin on strain and yur grow size
the seeds came from jamacia in oct 05 . the trees were over 6 ft tall cause i was looking up at them. :rasta: didnt want them to get that tall cause of my grow box pic 2. so between 6-8 weeks would be fine? the 7th node is there but hasnt spread its wings yet.
well if the max plants strech is about 2-3 times there veg height and you look like the grow box is about same height as mine i would let them get to about 12inchs and flower :D
btw that first pic is fucking cool :rasta:
hey everyone, i last posted dec 15 and just in a couple of days they are growing quickly. just wanted to give all an update on how things are going. it hasnt even been a week yet :thumbsup: .
Very nice bro. Any problems with the grow chamber you built?
not a problem yet, just built it from your diagram.
Mh lights for the beginning stages and hps for the last stage yes?As in flowering stage for HPS and Mh for vegetavive state
mh for veg stage and hps for flowering.
Excellent.....Muhahahahahaha!!! :DQuote:

However everything else is looking really good :) The leaves are a nice colour, the plants are nice and bushy, and there is plenty of new growth growing well.
All is coming along very well, you must keep us updated .................. soon be flowering time :)
love mand xxx :)
hey everyone this is day 2 of 12/12 pic on the left is 24 inches so far, middle one is 20 in. , right is 16in. any advice on how they look etc. hope they hurry up and show their sex . leaving for the big apple on the 27th.
starting 5/20/10 today, get some nutes up in em.
Hello Mobay :) Every time you add pics they are looking just better and better ;) ....................... looking really healthy, bushy and lots of new growth :)
Oh and by the way, don't be in too much of a rush for them to show their gender, girls can take a couple of weeks before appearing.
So I'll hope you have a few week to wait yet ;) :)
love mand xxx :)
ok , mand i thought you was supposed to see sexing within a few days of 12/12. so a couple of weeks would be better. just have to set up a timed watering device. or how long can u go without watering ? i water every 2 days.
Mobay did you want me to draw you up a new skematic for your new grow chamber bro?
Mobay wheres the diagram for TCs grow chamber?
i took the same diagram off the pic i got off the cool cabinet site. TC i had to put the cabinet on hold for now, cause i have to get the box i already made up in the attic. so i had to break it down to get it up there. i should have made it up there from the begining :mad: . so if i dont reply back so soon cause iam working fast getting it up there. its nice and cool up there too.
hey buck these are the boxes i made so far the smallest one is for my seeding/ vegging and the big one is for flowering.
np bro. :thumbsup:Quote:

Where did you get the cool tube? 1 more question sorry :o Whats ur temps in the box with the door sealed shut? Thanx
BukDatAss I'm going to draw up one right now. I'll post a link when I'm done ok.Quote:

TC showed me some ideas awhile ago on different boxes and i have one of the intake / exhaust fans. the cool tube as well one of TC websites maryland hydroponics. the temp in my box stayed at 85 degrees and the humidity was 40%.
my set up had to take a delay. as i was being handed the boards up to the attic one of the 3x6 pieces slipped out of my hands and i yelled oh shit and it feel onto my ladies foot. she was screaming bad. she knocked the ladder over and now she is on the floor in pain and iam stuck up in the attic with no way down. if i jump down iam going to land on her. so i had to wait till she rolled out the way , felt like 10mins. she ok now bruised and all , and we were joking around and i said if you were black and i said oh shit you would have ran out the way. but beings though you white you turned around and wanted to see what happened, and look at you now. that joke just made her start laughing shes a trooper.
Tell her it was my fault. :) Hope your okay Mrs. Mobay.Quote:
