lovely ladies!

Do you get the lime at a hydro store? or grocery store?

[justaseed]

you can get it at home depot, lowes, ace or any garden shop. it's really cheap, like $8 for a huge bag that would last a lifetime. it's for spreading on the lawn really. just make sure it's dolimite or dolimitic lime and not hydrated lime. hydrated lime is alot stronger and easy to overdose.

agricultural limestone work well also? im using that right now in my mix which is mostly peat moss and perlite. the specifications on the bag pretty much explain what it does and it sounds very similar to that dolimite lime - it controls excess acidity, adds calcium and magnesium, helps fertilizer work better, etc.....hasnt killed them yet and its been six weeks so i guess it works just as well. its called Hi Yield Agricultural Limestone

i use the same feeding program when i grow from seed, i just don't start feeding till week 2 or so. i start in 16oz keg cups to 5 1/2 square pots to 1 gal grow bags to 3 gal grow bags to 5 gal grow bags or buckets. remember that feeding schedule isn't written in stone. i adjust it as necessary depending on what the plants are "telling me" you gotta listen to your ladies all the time or they get really bitchy, trust me!

i am hoping to eventually pull a lb from my 400hps. 12-14oz is what i am hoping for currently. scrog is really easy! when i say you have to learn how a strain will react to the screen i'm talking 2-3 grows with that strain and should have it down. it's the rest of the growing process that takes years to perfect. i have been growing for almost a year and scroggin' since my 2nd grow. i have 1 veg and 3 flower chambers so i get 3 harvests every 2 months!

Hey, old thread but an incredible grow. How did you manage to Repot the plants while they were in the screens?

[justaseed]

i didn't repot after putting them under the screen. once i repotted into the 5gal buckets then i would put the screen on.

Ohhh, how long from clones was it untill you put the screen on?

[justaseed]

about 6-8 weeks. i vegged while one crop was flowering so they would be ready for the screen when the 1st crop finished. i could have gotten away with vegging a little less but i liked to top them alot and that kinda slows the growth. but you get alot more growth tips. i counted almost 200 tops on my last grow, a 2'x4' screen.

lol kinda a scrog sog exactily what i wana do gota figure out how my purple hase indica is gonna react to the screen...

i see that your using fox farm products. i too am a fox farm fan and i was wondering would you recommend putting those clones in FFOF when they are ready to be potted?

[John Doe]

My clones are in FFOF And Im not sure if its any better... It actually could be worse but I just dont know cuz I dont have any other soil...
But as my clones age some bottom leaves yellow slowly untill they die. But Im told this is normal.
The reason I say it could be worse is only because of all the nutrients the soil has. Im not quite sure if thats a good thing when your babies are so young.
