DoDo, I can't remember if I mentioned it before, but cool AV. The pest strips are great and will kill your critters. The reason it works is because there is a toxic chemical in it that we should try to not expose ourselves to. There have not been enough studies to know exactly what it (dichlovis sp?) does to humans, but it kills living things. So, like bug bombs, don't inhale. If you are considering trying to have kids in the future, maybe consider some natural shit that helps with control rather than eradication, like neem oil. If you follow the directions and don't put the strips in your living room you should be fine though. I would not use them in the last, ohhhhh, I don't know..., maybe 4 weeks of flowering. There's no way I would want to smoke or otherwise ingest that chemical. If you can find the strips I would buy a few extra because they will soon be unavailable due to the danger involved. Yes they work, and they work well.

lunarose, yes indoor plants require more care than outdoor plants, but as a reward you get more from them if you do things right. Outdoor plants could be as easy as throwing some seeds into a clearing in the forest and forgetting about them until fall. The easiest indoor plants would be in soil (just slightly easier than a simple hydro grow), with fluorescent lighting and a small fan. If set up properly they could require attention as little as once per week. If you want to drop some coin you could have it set up so you could check on them once per month.

Plants desire the same things though, no matter what the environment. They want 5800K light for vegging and 2500K light for budding. It doesn't matter if it comes from the sun or a microwave oven. If it comes from the sun, the plants will get a bunch of extra wavelengths, some of which will be used and some of which will be wasted. When we grow indoors, we don't try to mimic nature, but we try to improve upon it or extract from it only the things plants need or want.

Your question is asking if plants getting different kinds of light will want varied amount of nutrients. Hmmm. Not sure on that one, but I think not. Plants in hydro require less nutrients since they are more efficiently processed than plants in soil, but I don't think the presence or absence of certain kinds of light would affect what a plant wants to eat. Now I want to hear from an expert on the subject, and I'll be adding it to my list of experiments.

WT, Sorry your sperm went bad. Damn flowers. We're still on schedule as far as I know.
