Well boys, i have taken the dive... FLOWERING HAS BEGUN
I was due for a reservoir change and after researching the flowering stage some more it seemed like it was time. I decided to try the 24 hour dark period to see if i cant kick start the flowering stage:thumbsup:

As far as the spider mite problem is concerned i havent seen any runnin around yet, a couple on some leaves but they werent moving, i also removed a couple leaves that looked like they had some eggs on them so lets hope that this keeps them at bay:wtf:

With the res change i gave her 1.5 tbsp of big bloom and about 2 tsp of tiger bloom, im thinkin my res is about a gallon and a half so these seemed like the right amounts

Here's some pics for your pleasure:jointsmile:

feedback is appreciated

peace yalll:hippy:
