Hi clayboy,,,
Are you looking at topping the lady before she goes in too flower,, Do some reading up on toping and stuff, I had six plants as u can see above (photos) I wanted to expreament i little!!! I did some read and found that topping can, not will,, give u two or three main colas,,instead of just 1.. So i cut the tops of three of the plants and thats what come of it,, the three that i cut had prob more that double the one that i hadent,,,, just a thought,, some think for ya too look in too..
Not sure if i have all ready asked but have u got a bigger light for flowering...

Over and out green boy...


Im no expert but shit am i going to top all of my plants next time the rooms up and running..

I'm going to look to top it very soon.

No I don't have a bigger light for flowering, you think I'd need more than just two 42w cfls?

Hi clayboy,,
Would be better if you could try and get your hands on a 250w a least,, HPS.. I brought mine brand new of some think like £70 ish,,
Just make sure on temps in your room sit at 75 80 still when the lights running,, well you know that anyway,, I think 2 of the 42w bulbs would be ok still grow but no way near as good as with HPS,, Mine done give of that much heat,, but after a few hours of running it builds heat big time,, so needed fan...for a few extra $,,,, and few more qwid on the electric,, and there you go.... well worth it...

Some pic updates, seems to be wilting quite a bit. I flushed yesterday and added 1/2 strength nutes today, with cal mag as well. Any ideas for why it's wilting? Some of the lower leaves are yellowing too. I moved the lights back a bit today too, I have them about 3 inches away from the top of the plant.

hi bud,, how often is your drip ring on for, could be under watering,, overwatering,, 1/2 nutes, may be to power full for wwweee plant, drop it down to 1/4 for week let them recover,,

I used to leave my drip ring on day and night 24/7. some say you can some say leave on for day light only,, them pebbles need too be wet throught all the time,,,,,

How many weeks now????:jointsmile:
Keep me informed, but they will pick up again, dont you worry about that,, will post some pics of what my first babys looked like at your sort of stage, well poorly..

Looks like no cal mag plus from the red stem. PH might of held you back but not much. Seedlings do not need nutes for two week and then 1/4 nutes. If you don't have cal mag you can use a little epson salt to help.

Loc Nar, was talking bout 2 weeks from your first post when to add nutes( seems like your just over two weeks and 1/2 strenght might be to much). Flush with water only and make sure you have plenty of light. Im no expert but what ive learned is start with the proven feeding schedules(when all variables permit) Good Luck, post more pics if you get time

My drip runs 24/7. My ppm is currently around 690.

Tonight I took the pump out and flushed out all the tubes, they seemed to be a little backed up. I also moved the fan closer.

It's been about 6 weeks now since I first planted the seeds. I just bought a new light last night that I should have by the end of the week, I bought a 150W CFL that says it has 9200 lumens.

I'm going to try cutting back on the watering, at this point what do I have to lose?

looks like you gave it too many nutes too quickly as was mentioned above. I have been told and keep to the fact not to give any nutes at all just superthrive until it has six sets of leaves. you are burning em I think. I would flush and enter no nutes at all to let them revive. I may be wrong as I grow in soil but I would assume the rules would be the same. My brother while I was away added nutes too soon and it did just that. I was able to save mine with a good flush with 1/4 tsp of superthrive per gallon of water. See what others say but that would be what I would do if I were you. good luck
