400 watt hps

Well folks....starting yesterday i moved the flowering plant under a 400 watt hps...room in the small cab was just too limiting and i don't have to be so stealth anymore...HPS is all new to me but damn that plant is looking good after just one day under it.

Bu im not sure how close i can put the light....figured if it doesnt burn my hand it is far enough away....any thoughts?????

pics soon to follow with my good camera so you can see the frost :dance013:

There's no reason that you couldn't re-pot if you want to. Just be careful not to disturb the roots to much and water it good afterwards. If your girl is out growing the pot I would. I've also grown 4ft plants in 44oz cups, but that was in 4'L x 5'T x 2'W cab. If you have plenty of room why not re-pot bigger the more room the roots have will help it to be healthier and happier. Still a lot depends on your genetics, what are you growing? Because you can get quite a lot from a smaller 2ft plant also. It looks like you have a nice size girl now. All in all I'd say re-pot. It won't hurt the yield, but being three weeks into flowering I couldn't say that a bigger pot will definetly increase your yield either. If you had re-potted earlier then I would say that it would have helped the yield. Say at the transition from veg to flower. Good luck my friend your doing good.:)

Foxfarm nutes

Foxfarm nutes

Any one ever use this line of foxfarm nutes and feeding schedule.....Grow Big, Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, Open Sesame, Beastie Bloomz and finally.... Cha-ching?
Just wondering what you experienced.....:wave:
 
hey montana, ive never personnaly used any fox farm, since there isent any locally, but your plant is looking pretty tasty. yeah, a better camera would help, but it looks like the colas are just filling in, and your plan seems to be right on track from my perspective.

i dont recall the #s but it seems like FF's auxiliary bloom stuff (sesame beastie cha ching) has a LOT of phosphorous

the organic gurus have me not worried about N-P-K #s (or cal/mag) as long as the sources represent a reasonable supply and @ least some of everything is there

But, imbalance is imbalance - if you are using those supplementals at anything close to full strength (esp together) there's way too much phosphorous in your mix.

i bet you could go to just water @ this point w/ better results.

when i watched NPK, i did 0-1-1 seedling 6-4-4 veg and 4-8-6 flower or whatever -cause w/ organics, the plants decide.

you'r looking good tho - leaves up means happy and you definitely have some flower set going on

*there's little point potting up in flower. root growth is minimal in flower (as the plant's declining now just trying to make some seeds so it can die) you may even shock it and slow it down.

i use bestly blooms and cha ching only
they really make a diff in weight and reson i use beastly from week one and a half to 4 weeks then switch to cha ching the last 4-5 weeks
beastly is 0-50-30 and cha ching is 9-50-10
its just what mj needs ive never had any def besides low n
i use these on top of molases and earth juice bloom
these nutes grow the cronic i promiss
what strength did you use for the beastly
