Santacruz, hey, just curious. You were growing from clones or did you start w/ seeds?

How did you go about getting the clones(friend/shop?) or seeds?

[santacruz_organic]

i got my clones from a friend, but it was a one time deal sort of thing. if you are a medical patient you can get them at cannabis clubs through out CA. I am going to start using seeds and cross breading soon though.

I had to flip my lights into 18/6 today from 24 because i needed to use my sulfur vaporizer which can only be used in the dark. i am planning on switching to flowering this weekend and wondered if it was bad for my plants to go through the rapid time change. any info is appreciated! has anyone used a sulfur vaporizer before?

switching from 24 to 18/6 is fine...

do you have mold or fungus? Why are you using a sulpher burner?

Why can't you use it when the lights are on?

cheers

i have powdery mildew, and it was reccomended that sulfur burners were the best way to get rid of it naturally and it also works for pest control. the reason i have to use it in the dark is a mystery to me, thats just what it said in the instructions. my question about the light timing was that switching from 24/0 to 18/6 to 12/12 all in the same week is going to effect my plants.

cool.... keep us updated on the MILDEW and the effectiveness of the burner.. I have always heard great things about sulfer burners!!

cheers

i have been aplying LST to all my plants and im going to start flowering on sat. What are the best bulbs to buy for flowering (HPS 1000w)? any recomendations from personal experience? i was thinking of getting a Super HPS 1000w Hortilux.

I have a Hortilux 1000w Super HPS. Haven't flowered with it yet, but they have grown like mad even in veg under it. I like it.

alright its still wednesday on my watch, and that means time to post another update on my grow. alot of things changed since last week. i decided to install my ventilation and air cooled lights. i was worried at first about the tempature dropping to much if i air cooled my lights but i made the right decision. my room is in between 76F and 68F which is very ideal growing temps. i also installed a carbon filter attached to my exahust and a sulfur vaporizer to take care of the mildew problem i have been having. im still new to the sulfur vaporizer so any details or opinions on the best way to use it or what to do would help. i used it but the mildew is still there; do i wait for it to dissapear on its own or do i have to wipe it off? one other thing is i Killed a plant almost by knocking my oscillating fan over. lucky enough it didnt kill the whole plant (there is a pic bellow). I also tied down all my plants to apply LST which was very time consuming. chiggity check-it out yo!
