Hello HS Well we shall just have too see what happens . Today my youngest bought me a brand spanking new HPS bulb, mind you it won't be for free I'm sure there is some reason for it, I don't know what yet but I have the feeling I'll find out soon

Anyway once the light went out tonight I replaced th MH with the new HPS, so I'm intrested to see what's going too happen


Hello PP another adoption .................. Honestly love I may smoke weed and prehaps like the occasional little drink but if you asked my kids they would say I'm just like everyone else's Mum, aways nagging them and getting on to them.
I do it because I think I know what's best for them and because I worry and care about them but I'm affraid they don't see it that way




Hello Scobbie ............... whilst you're there if you fancy a bite to eat ignore all the regular hot dog and burger stalls. At the opposite end of the market, there is a stall that does chicken wraps, but they also do a very nice Bombay potato wrap. It comes in a chapati wrap type thing and it's best had with a litte salad and a medium sauce (the red sauce), they cost £3 each but they really are quite nice



love mand xxx

"I do it because I think I know what's best for them and because I worry and care about them but I'm affraid they don't see it that way"

I always look back to when I was that age and remember (or try to as it's been decades) how I felt about my parents telling me what I should do. Then I back off my daughter as I know it does no good. They know all...or so they think...and so did we. Proverbial thought for the day.

Glad you got a new hps Mand. Be interesting to see what their reaction is to it.

[scobbie]

well put marc i totaly agree, know somthing mand you have became like a good mate and my wife would just love you ,you seem her type of person , very honest and kind thank you for the help you have gave me in the past

Hello Oh dear this growing lark is being kinda testing I'm affraid

By the way StickyFinger You read the whole thread ............ it does go on a bit doesn't it
Hmmm shopping for a ring, well love if you wish to send me a nice diamond one for valentines day it would be gratefully recieved
However the plain gold banded type of ring does have a certain effect on me .................. a wedding ring to me has an effect similar that a crucifix has on Dracula

Lovely plant pics by the way Sticky, very nice



Buk ................... yes I have a telly but I never watch the channels, I only ever use it to watch DVDs on.
I find that the programmes are ethier talentless so called "celebrities" or things such as the news which is just full of wars, murders, disasters, fatal accidents or countries trying to find new and more efficent ways of killing people ............................. very depressing stuff, I do try to avoid.

Yes Buk I know you're near ready for harvest and you have done a super nice job of it as well . As for help of anyone, I feel certain that you would have grown just as well without anyones help at all, you have the entuhsiaism for it, and that's what counts .................... by the way love are you ready for the next grow



Hello dialtone I like that bud pic, what fabulous colour those leaves are, I really have never seen any like that before.
Can I ask what they are ?



Hello Scobbie well send my love to the "missus" love............ you're a real "mate" Scobbie and I really appreciate that




Ah Marc ............................ hmmmm you have asked the question that is slowly driving me "round the bend".

Their reaction love was what I truely expected ................. they drooped as fast as could be
I always had the feeling that it wasn't the HPS bulb being faulty, you see when they are faulty the plants very quickly go yellow then brown and die.
However I had to try a new bulb just to be certain.

I have a theory Marc ................. it's quite a "far fetched" one but it is the only thing it can be.
In the past I have always induced flowering after about ten weeks of vegitive growth and the plants have relished in the light from the HPS.
The last grow I induced at 7 weeks and they drooped, this grow it was about 5 weeks and they have drooped.
I know it sounds daft but I rekcon they are simply just not ready for flowering, so I have tonight put the MH bulb back in and I am going to continue to flower them under that for the next 2 - 3 weeks and then I will try the HPS again.
Maybe they just need some blue light untill they mature a little while longer ................... I told you it was a "far fetched" theory Marc but I know there is nothing else it can be


I'm going on the Sherlock Homes kinda thinking here ...................." when you elimminate all the possible causes and are left with an improbable cause, no matter how " soft than arsehole" it is, then that's the one" .......... or something like that anyway love



Thankyou guys .............................. love mand xxx




Oh I can't post any pics of them, my camera has gone "walkabout" again
