Starting with larger containers (now 3 gal. instead of 7 liters before) I hope will avoid the mid-flower stress these babies went through. I think adding the CalMag to my feeding regimen from the beginning will also help. I haven't even smoked any yet, so don't even know about quality although all signs are positive.

And yeah, I suppose I am proud of myself. I put much time into study and research to prepare myself for this, but I also was not up against some of the obstacles faced by others, including you and many others who gave advice here on canncom. I invested much $ and space in my house to this pursuit that others don't have available to them, so I had some advantages too. I've decided that there are two keys for me; lots of light ( with 4000 watts of light, I should get some results,right)?, and checking my plants A LOT. Not a day went by that I didn't check them closely at least twice. Bad things can happen very fast, and if you don't notice something for 3-4 days it can be too late. Just like when yours went a-visitin', right? Anyway, I still have lots to learn, but it's still fun too, so that makes it easier. Thanx again.
Well you put in the learning part and do have a very nice set-up, so it shouldn't be a surprise at your harvest. I seen a lot of people that uses the Cal Mag and never heard problem with it, but iv never seen it, nor do i know exactly what it does/helps. I really think the bigger pots of course will help too. Thats just more room. Iv read that the above growth to the roots, works out to be 50/50, above the soil and below it. Im really not sure about this, but it makes sense to me. With a bigger root foundation, it would seem the bigger the plant would grow. Also, you can use the pics to compare this grow with the next to get an idea as to growth speed. Just a thought.

And fun, oh man i was bummed when my summer grow ended. It was my reason to get out of bed for me, as i live with less then desirable people. So i would think of anything i could do with my plants, because it was so much fun. After growing bonsai for 15 years, which is very slow growing, i fell in luv growing weed. It develops so fast, each day you can see a difference. Thats why i started an indoor before i had the basic equipment to do so.

I will have pics soon. I see buds starting to get bigger everyday, but i have at least a month if not more to go. But thats ok, as the problem iv had, if i could get like a half oz, it would be a good grow for me. Next year il be prepared and il be able to veg my outdoor plants to at least a foot before planting them. The Edna im growing is doing very well and more sites then the skunk/haze ones. Plus i have some seeds that iv not tried yet, which were made to grow fast. Here are the genetics, Nirvana Special x Top44)x WW) x ((Thai Haze x Skunk#1) x Lr2), this will be some good stuff im thinking. With the WW and Lr2 and other strains i cant wait till spring as im sure you cant wait to get your clones vegged and ready to go.

Catcha later my friend:rasta:
