Outside the fact it looks pretty young for full strength nutes and imo serious overkill with lights atm, it's green and growing. Looks good so far.

so which light would do better the hps or the mh im open to any ideas i can get, and i made a bubbleponics 5 gallon how do i know when to transfer it.

metal hallide for veg. HPS for flowering

[tinytoon]

Yes MH for veg and HPS for flower but I would have left it under a CFL or Floro for a while longer. When you say Bubbleponics are you talking DWC?? If so I'm not sure why your in a bucket filled with Hydrotron /shrug

[kato420]

right now its in 2.5 liter pot with drip. and yes dwc 5 gallon i plan to transfer it to that. Ive made single systems because in recirculating dwc what happens to one happens to all imo.

You are a crooked dealers best friend... Get some bullshit buds and slap a fancy name on it and the price increases!


Anyways the plant looks good but I agree with tiny. Very young for full nutes and the lights. You can save yourself some cash by using a CFL or two right now. How do you plan on transplanting it later? It will be very stressful to just pull it out of the rocks and try to make it fit into a netpot...

I dont know maybe I read it wrong because I am very medicated.

Goodluck and keep up the good work!

Thanx for quick replies i cut it down to just the mh im holding at 73 degrees. What better way to take bag seeds grow em and sell it back to the guy pedaling this crap they call weed lol. Honestly just tired of paying for it id rather pay my light bill. Ur right tho u slap a fancy name and price went up 40 bucks lol. A zip of a strain like nyc is 440 here and i just cant do it anymore. About the five gallon i would have to start it in it? Proly be the best idea its lookin like. Any of you that reside in Cali, i envy U

here is the route I take.
Germ seed in whatever method works best for you.
When seed cracks and lil root appears place in a Rapid Rooter and place under a CFL 23w Daylight bulb.
When sprout emerges place a small fan to create a gentle breeze to make stem stronger.
Hand water with PH'd water with a drop of Superthrive and lights 24/7.
When roots appear to be coming out of rooter place in small cup or pot with small amount of Hydrotron.
When you can see definite signs of "growing" the root system should be well on the way to being established and time to go to the netpot and under big lights.
4 weeks veg and 9-12 weeks flower and you are playing in green happiness.
