DAMN is it 2:00 yet????:cursing: i want to go play in the garden!!!!!!!i just got some "mylar" blankets from kmart i want to put up plus i want to take pictures plus i got ph down so now i can finally get that worked out.i am around 6.8 now.with a soilless mix and hydro nutes i want a 6.2 ph correct?

anyway i will get it put together and put up some pics here soon

well,here it is.not quite ideal but still doing good.pic 5 is .4grams that is about to meet its maker :stoned:

well shit my thread is so liked that i made it to page 2

anyway things are doing ok.my bottom leaves are curling and yellowing quite a bit though.they are finally growing again thankfully most are on their 7th node. should be taking cuttings here in the next week or so.my flowering goal is the 1st week of december for the first batch and 2ish weeks later for the second batch.fingers are crossed that at least 7 are female.

the auroura indica is proving to be much more vigorous than the white widow.WW seems that it is going to be more of a 1 cola plant while AI seems that it is gonna be a stocky bush.

here are some pics of the current setup.the pots are labled so that you can see the differance between the AI and the WW.there is also a pic of the worst set of bottom leaves.any idea of the problem?

temps top out at 82 degrees farenheight(?) but are typically 78ish,and night temp is 67-71.light is 16 inches from the top of the tallest plant.my ph is a little high.6.8ish,do you think this could be the problem with the leaves?

edit-well itook to long.
the fan is out of a microwave that i found in the garbage.works great. i could lower my light 5 more inches if i wasn't putting my flowering plant under it for "daytime".the light is less than 6 inches away from it with no probs so i will lower the light when i harvest that plant in 4 or 5 more days.i will post a pic of it when she wakes up.And as you can see i already have fixtures hung for side lighting when everyone gets a little taller.for flower i will have the 400 and around 100 watts of cfl over 6ish square foot.(that # may grow depending how well my cloning works out)

oh yeah humidity is around 50 unless it is the day i wateredthen it is around 55 to 58

Your plants look way too healthy to have a pH problem. 6.8 is fiiine.... The leaf problem you're talking about... is that the browning on the really low leaves? I usually just write that off to low light down there and not worry about it. The overall health looks right on track!

that is what i like to hear!!
growing inside is so much different that outdoor.half way freaking out about every little thing not knowing if it is horrible or not.it is way more fun being able to interact with them everyday though.

i forgot to add last time an update on the bug problem.(little yellow worm looking things on the bottoms of some leaves*aphids?*)it seems not to be getting worse or better.i put ladybugs in there but still have to kill 2 sometimes 3 a day.i haven't found any today hopefully they are finally wiped out.:thumbsup:

[stinkyattic]

Those are the larvae of thrips. VERY common. They like to munch especially on the lower leaves. They breed in the soil. Kill them by sprinkling diatomaceous earth over the surface of the soil.

[jamstigator]

'Diatomaceous', damn, you'd think that word would be worth more than 17 points in Scrabble.

[c of green]

yeah that should be ALOT of points. thanks for the info stinky i will go down to the garden store to see if they have any.if not will wal mart,lowes or something similar have it?and how much should i sprinkle?how much does it cost?

p.s.should i wait until i have alternating nodes to take cuttings or will it be ok to top the plants now(24ish days old),root the tops and flower them(the clones) after they have a good root system?2 weeks(ish) after i cut them.
