Need help

Just had to add that was great the way you saw those spots early, alot of people call me when the plant is almost dead, "what do I do" and at that point it is kind of like well let it continue or tear it down, but half its life or half its harvest is gone.

catching things early is the whole point of indoor gardening everything should be like a lab any little change should be noticed and noted and dealt with. Recording is all part of growing, how elese are you going to know 4-10 years down the line if bubble gum and bubba kush need to be grown differantly? Or if in wet seasons planting at low elevation can be bad lol.

MadSativa Reviewed by MadSativa on 01-13-2011. Need help Hi everyone, Need help. Some redish rust color spots have appeared on a few leaves of two of my plants during flowering. The spots aren't ,really, going crazy but definitly spreading when they show on a leaf? Checked k-def? and trying to apply a mild n-p-k but am unsure if the spots and yellowing aren't normal for some strains during flowering? My medium is Sh. peat 75%-- 25% mixed soil. First time using this type of medium. total ph for that mix is around 5.0 I believe I feed one with BC Rating: 5

Very cool your plants look great,

A little observation though, it is hard to tell the hight and size from the pics but if they get bud heavey next time a little before they flower or right when you put them into flower mabey a tomato cage would help, cant realy tell though only time will let you know if those buds need some tieing to keep them up.

I think she may get pretty big? The plant itself is about 3' from the soil to the tops. 26 Branches in all and are anywhere from 2' to 1.5' The top buds average from 3"to 8" Each one is developing a nice tight, even spiral. I find myself bud gazeing for some time with this girl:jointsmile:
I have the wire and string ready.

Thanks MadSativa, Growing indoors is very touchy. Heating, cooling, ventilation, nutrients, soils, soiless, pest control, timers, ect.. This shit can make a person dizzy after a while, lol. Gotta keep records and Like you said that knowledge will come in handy as time goes on.. Experimenting creats experience, experience creates wisdom and wisdom will hopefully keep me from making to many mistakes in the future.
May the girls continue to thrive and shine like diamonds:jointsmile:

She is about 2.5 feet and the there are 22 main branches, not 26 :stoned: Lots of buds on her. Probably not going to get too heavy after closer examination, Hope I'm wrong though.
Peace

What light(s) are you using?

I am running a t-5 hood with 6x3500k, I am leary about hps or hid in this older home I have, It has ,well?, old electrical and no more then 15 amp breakers. lol Yea, hard to even run a frickin portable heater.
By next summer though I will have a complete new flowering shed done and it will have it's own power source. What does a typical 600w hps lamp run at fla? anyone know?

Most HPS systems have a ballast that regulates current.......I would think that you could run one even in an old house.
