Eeeewwwwwww. You drink alcohol? Yuck. (Anyhow, technically it's against site rules to discuss any drugs.)
Rarely do I get mad, but I am often...passionate.

Yeah,... I'm trying to quit, I'd love to get a pilots license,... but that's for another thread/forum.

Nice to see ya back.
-But-
regardless of the reason, we are all responsible for our posted words. No excuses the next day. "the dog ate my homework" or "I must have been drunk" are not valid excuses. (ok...life lesson over now)

What's posted is posted,... I'll own up to it

The 150 is a much better tool than the cieling light and incandescents.

I'd check and see how close to the light you can get your hand without disconfort. If your hand can take the heat for over 30 seconds, so can the plants. But best to ease into it over a day or so. This way you don't set 'em and forget 'em. Coming back to crispy buds would suck.

Thanks bro! :thumbsup:

If you start seeking parts for the 150w unit now, you'll know where to get replacement parts and bulbs before they are necessary. (plan ahead)

Already looking,... but I don't know the Kelvin rating of my current bulb! I'm certain its not the 6.5k,... I do believe it's the 10K,... will this hurt anything? :wtf:

Old growth is old news. Your leaves won't fully recover, but keep an eye on the new growth. That will be the indicator that you are on the right track. (or not)

I've seen you post this in a number of threads,... and I do believe it!

My Old growth leaves are stunted/burned, but will survive for a while, (I'm not worried about them, since...) the new growth leaves are looking strong and green and smell like cannabis!!!!

You're going to need to feed tham pretty soon, too.

I wasn't planning on feeding or flowering for another couple months,... But I've learned that I over potted my plant,.... SEVERELY! (Clone straight into a 3 gallon pot) and of course there's a TON of problems associated with that.

My recent problems have me thinking of letting the soil fully dry and repotting in a smaller 2ish gallon pot for the moment, to let the plant get more root bound in the remaining soil before expanding into new turf..... :wtf:

Thoughts/opinions on repotting? I'm listening.

My ladies start to stress under 65ish. Somewhat more importantly, is keeping the difference in low and high temps to as narrow a range as possible. The plants seem to love consistentcy there. Proper ventilation is more important during the daylight hours. It's not nearly as important to vent during the night, as it is to vent during daylight hours.

Thanks,... With the MH and Ballast in the booth temps stayed in the 70-80's,.... 40%-50% RH,.... Guess my first practical test of the vents proved more than just a little inaccurate! (not sure I trust my thermometer any more IMHO :wtf: )

So homework for the week...

Find an aquarium ph test kit, and some phDown. (freshwater) Do not adjust the ph unless you know the numbers, first.
Get some nutrients with an N-P-K proper for growing cannabis in it's two different cycles. Lower phosphorous for the growth phase, higher phosphorous for flowering. Canna or Fox Farms are a couple with good results.
Check prices for No-Pest srtips. Try and kill 'em before the need for more neem.
(no excuses that the dog ate your homework)

If your soil is holding water too much after a good soaking or flush, you might want to consider adding perlite to lighten-up the soil and/or turn-up the circulating fan a notch.

Good luck with 'em. Glad you got the HID light. You'll want to go even bigger once you see the difference. :thumbsup:

I've got a drop tester,... not quite as accurate, but it's a ballpark right?

Question,... How do I add Perlite to an already potted plant?

As for the feeding,... I wasn't planning on it before flowering, but during flowering was thinking of the FF "recipe for success" blend, since if I repot it will be in FF Ocean forest.


turned the fan up a notch and made sure it's mostly blasting on the pot,... Hopefully the soil will dry out quicker.:jointsmile:
