All right I have calmed down..... Well ASD you haven't really been there until you've done two things.....dropped the light on your plants and/or snapped the main stem in half or broke off your best cola tripping over something so you are still ahead of the game. Once you've done those 2 you can then proudly call yourself an experienced grower.

I know you and Bonger are going to sit there in the corner and discuss linear curves and ph calculations etc....I can see it's like a NEED or something for you guys so I'll just gloss over that stuff and let you two work it out. But when I see you losing sight of the basics you are going to hear some stomping from MY corner...:wtf:

One of my goals here is to get you through this grow with the basics. Bonger made an EXCELLENT point about keeping records.....LOVE to say I thought of it but well.....we won't go there but obviously he knows the score and I don't but I WOULD steal his info-and generator-in a red-hot second......but trying everything under the sun here on your first grow is nutty. If you want to talk science then use this grow as a baseline....somewhere you know you can come back to when you try new things that don't quite go the way you want them to.

Bonger, your two or three or ten cents here please. I feel there are only a few things that will greatly increase your yield, given the same generalities. Lighting, C02 etc... I don't for one second believe that if your ph is 5.4 vs 5.6 or 5.2 your plants give much of a crap. I don't think you can pour enough nutes into your plants without burning that are going to make THAT much difference. Pppm at 1200 vs 1500 is not going to make your end result THAT much better. Now, if you have a 250w light and go to a 1kw....THAT is going to have a huge effect. But the stuff you are concentrating on and going crazy over I don't really see helping you or your plants at significantly at all.

Zola is starting to look good. You have nice growth on the little clone but that's all I can say about clones.....I know ZERO about them. :jointsmile:
