SeedKing's 1st Grow Northenr Lights/ W Rhino

[SeedKing72]

1.Well the 400Watt MH is far superior to the 40Watt Cool white bulbs, I was using.. This was expected..now obviously I am just going by looks... but the runt, which I had thought about killing doesnt look like its a runt anymore.. its start to grow normal, its still the smallest of the bunch but is looks like it will catch up..

2. There is an heat issue, but I have a fan blowing between the light and the canopy and I also have a fan blowing out hot air from the top.. I can't add a A/C unit...

3. Using Fox Farm BIG Grow.. the bottle says use 1 teaspoon every water, this is their weak solution.. I started with 1/4 of that, now I am at 1/2.. This Saturday I will be at 1/1.. I didnt want to burn them, I dont see any problems yet.. but I belive in following the bottles direction so they will get the 1/1.. there is also 2-3 drops of Superthrive in the water... the bottle say 1/4 a teaspoon for full size plants, so I am going to wait until they are a little taller.. Seems like I have to water a lot, the blowing fan and the heat dries out my Perlite/Soil mix quickly.. so Water well every other day, and then every day in the morning I mist the top just to keep it moist.. overwatering is an easy thing to do, so I am playing it close, I will back off if I see any problem..

4. Still hoping to get to 18 Inches, I think if I would have used 400Watt MH sooner... I would have bigger plants, I was just playing it safe

If you can't handle it and see the only way to respond is to called people assholes then I think you need to relook your responses and see who actually is one. (ahem)

Star, THIS is why you don't stick your nose where it dosen't belong

I only was suggesting that an open mind sometimes allows a person to see things in a different light...which is sometimes the correct light.

Oh come on, I took the rocks off didn't I? lol... And yes, you may not think yourself a fool when posting... But when it turns into an argument and someone's thread get's trashed (Which it HASN'T yet) they certainly do. That's why I hope star has the sense not to reply. This is SeedKing's thread. From now on, if anyone has a problem, please post a seperate thread titled, "Bull Shit." And MB...

People are waaaayyy too touchy about these conversations in these forums.

AMEN

SK, your plants are lookin' good man, keep it up, and yeah, overwatering is easy as FUCK It took me a death or two before I relized this. I hope you babes grow up big and strong.. What are all of their names? Good grow, keep us updated.

Peace

as far as overwatering is concerned if you maintain them on a daily basis, its ok if you let them wilt slightly (slightly) then when they recieve water they perk right up.

If a plant wilts it means it's going through stress. Undo stress can and has caused hermies. There's no reason to let your plants wilt. FWIW

Nothing new just a 22 day pic of Hermosa.. Babies are growing.. gotta control heat.. Came home it was 96 in there..DAMN...

Well my thread sucks, I really wanted to show people what I was trying to do. My attitude has always been, when you are doing something that you are a novice at, listen to those who say they know.. not to take all their advice, just to get other peoples opinion. This is why I don't get involved in all the other B/S.. I appreciate all help.. So with that said. I will still maintain this, I think a Newbie, like myself, will learn from whatever the outcome is. I'm high.. so work with me..

Day 24

1. I wish HARDDON was still here, he always had something to say.. Alot of haters on here that take growing weed too seriously.. man its just a plant.. Enough of that

2. Hermosa, is growing slowly, I was expecting faster growth, but they are growing.. the plan was always to grow to 18 -24 inches (closer to 18) .. I want them all to be 18 atleast if possible.. 400Watt Converter bulb is helping, I think what I will do is order a TRUE Metal Halide light... 600 Watt if I have the balls do to this again... PARANOID AS FUCK!!!!!!!

maybe time for some nutes? try some co2 you can make your own co2 by putting 4 cups of sugar in a gallon of water with some brewers yeast(or you can add a few drops of your own urine) or you can just spray the plant with some seltzer water. I would think if you have a 400w bulb on there, that that's not the problem.

yeah them stupid fucks are hijacking your thread
