hey jst need sum advice

[Rusty Trichome]

I woz wonderin if u cn look at my thread in the lighting section and give any advice on the ladys? Bout pruning.. Increase in yield and dat.. thank u very much mate.. X

Just a quick look through the thread, and notinced a couple things...

Shiny aluminum stuff collects and retains heat. Not sure if those absorb moisture too, but if humidity is an issue, keep an eye in 'em. Flat white paint is durable and washable.

Most major brands of potting soil are pre-buffered to nearly neutral ph. The buffers last somewhere around 6-8 weeks before they dissolve away and ph starts to fluctuate. Since most potting mixes are peat moss based, the ph will get more acidic over time.

I wait to transplant into final pots about 2 weeks into flower, for just this reason. Be careful with transplanting and there are no issues. (but don't drop the rootball or snap a branch) Never transplant a wet rootball. Wet rootballs fall apart.

All training/trimming should be done in growth stage, unless doing a Screen of Green grow. Trimming while the plant is flowering, is a good way to stress the nanners out of her. If a little bushy, I let 'em battle it out. Usually with no issues. Don't let water get trapped between two leaves. It almost glues 'em together. Mold or other nasties can form.

Why were you concerned with soil ph? What's your water ph, and how are you testing it?

Looking good though. Any specific questions? :thumbsup:

hi mate how u doin.. Yea jst burnd leaves frm the lights do u fink that can stress em out?

As long as it isn't a habit, the burn shouldn't do much harm. Gotta watch the rising heat, too. (the area just above the light)

so r they lookin ok 4 4 weeks.. They gna get alot bigger?

Looks fine. They'll fill-in more, and likely there's not much stretch left in 'em.

Ow much do u rekon i myt get in harvest.. ?

Depends on how many plants, and how much yield you get from each plant. :thumbsup:

Wt wud u do 2 maximise yield? Ne trade secrets?

Proper nutrients, proper lighting, a solid schedule you can keep without difficulty, good ventilation and circulation...and the willingness to learn. The learning process can take a while, so settle-in and don't expect miracles overnight. Avoid "snake oil" gardening. No such thing as a miracle tea or tonic. You might want to read through some of the Myths and Folklore link I have in my signature. A lot of good info that can save heartaches and cash.

Wt u growing atm cheers rusty..

Right now, some White Widdow and a nice Cindarella 99 x Sweet Tooth. Kinda pissed my Northern Lights just got done underperforming. But, the weather hasn't been co-operating. Cold for a couple of days, hot for a couple, rain, heat, cold...I sure miss global warming. Starting to warm-up again though. :thumbsup:

[Rusty Trichome]

U gt a thread 4 ur latest gro?

No. Unless I have a fresh technique or insight, I usually hijack other's threads. :thumbsup: Plus, I'm kinda lazy. :jointsmile:

U eva use molasses r they any gud?

Yes, I use unsulfered molasses for mid to late flowering. Provides calcuim, magnesium, iron, and a few micronutes.
In my garden it replaces CalMag Plus, Sweet, and is a great source of carbs. As a matter of fact, unsulfered molasses is the base ingredient for many of the additives sold today. (mostly derived from cane sugar or sugar beets, and some are nothing more than simple chemical copies of molasses...)
