First grow--starting from clones- CFL lights

[RamblerGambler]

I must say, I'm in shock the nutes didn't burn your babies straight to to hell. But congrats on the success. Strange...

The leafs only started getting a little irritated this last week or so. So I am using just water. I dont see a problem if the nugs are swelling up and getting covered in trichs, i could care less about a little bit of burnt leafs.

Hey, neat little setup, Love the idica plant. I should have done a small trial like you did, before I started all my plants. I also had nute burn issues because of my watering/nute habits. I bet your round 2 will be very nice...:rastasmoke:

Just a little update. Trimmed the fan leaves off, plants are almost done, trichs are 10% cloudy. Using fresh water only now....

that's amazing! did you use the shultz through the flower cycle too, or did you change nutes?

[filo6942]

I used the same nutes. (tho the pros would say thats a bad idea)

I just wanted to do a barebones trial run to dial in this little setup. The nutes work great in my opinion and arnt as strong as Fox Farm. I have seen a lot of people burn their plants very bad with Fox Farm.

I overdosed the schults nutes, and barely got a little nute burn on the tips of the leaves!

I stopped using nutes a little over a week ago, and am looking at a harvest date around a week from now. I hope.


Here is the bottle, I think it was like $3, and I used maybe 1/10th of it for this grow. Lasts a while.

am I adding this up right? your whole grow's gonna be about 7 weeks? the double nutes really worked for well for you. I have some shultz root horomone for cloning. do you know if it works good?

[frostedwonder]

Those plants are tasty looking. I think people can use anything they want for a weed but its about the time and caring they put into it to achieve the results you see on this site. I use FF and can tell you they will burn on half dose sometimes but I still like them. Also that shultz root hormone works nicely.. if you can't run to a nice hydro/indoor garden shop then use what you can, this is suppose to be fun after all..:hippy:

Yes 7 weeks is plenty. I actually had to pluck some flowers off my Puple Kush the other day for severe back pain.

I am sooooo happy with the smoke, and the effects! KNOCK OUT POTENT!!

I will be revegging the plants!



RE: rooting hormone, I am sure it works fine, I actually bought some myself. funny thing is a iknow a lot of folks that dont use any rooting hormone and still clone just fine.

I estimate there is close to a half ounce on the purple plant, and close to an ounce on the CHEESE.

that purple kush looks really tasty. so starting from clones saved atleast 1 week if not more? that's some good info.

my aunt was telling me some different ways to do clones that she learned from my great grand mother. one used potatoes, and the other a branch from a weeping willow tree. I'd like to try those methods as well sometime just to be nostalgic.
