Hey folks, small update on the plants. so i went to the cabin for the long weekend, 5 days away and i had my gf look after my plants, i know she doesnt cruise this site so i'll feel free to say, BIG mistake. hahaha my poor children were hanging on a thread, they went realy dry and my guess were drooping right down, bottom leaves were yellow and crisping, but they pulled thru and are looking better.
so im into week 4 after germination, im still in the same pot, heard having a solid root ball before transplanting is good (advice on this fact?) i have pots that equal about 2x the size they are in now, thinking of moving them up slow
also i heard that if the run off is brownish coloured this is a build up of salts, so i flushed realy well (advice on this fact ?)
Q: just flushed, do i fertalize right after or should i give them a cycle to drink some clean water?
Im still working with just 1 single 3 foot T5 6500k bulb, but im feeling i may need to upgrade as lower leaves are starting to show branching out and i believe they will need more light.
Q:i have a 400 watt magnetic ballast with a mean sounding buzz, can i contain the ballast in a sound proofed box or will it get hot as hell and burn down my house?
oh ya, twice leaves got too close to the bulb and burned so i figured id top them realy close to the top
ok here are a few pics
ps, im giving 4 away to bring me down to 4. im getting rid of the less vigorous ones. dont know if you guys remember one i wrote about whose root ball busted off when something fell on it, its growing like a weed.... oddhttp://boards.cannabis.com/grow-log/...new-timer.html
