Just put these 4 Romulan Diesel ladies into their new homes.

Only have one of the 400 watts on currently and in a few days going to fire up the other one and have 2 under each light in a 3x3 tray. Will feed 3x a day in veg and bump it up to 4 or 5 in flowering.

Using full line of H&G minus algen, magic green, and nitrogen boost....

Here goes nothin!

The few times I've ordered reflectors/hoods online, they've taken it out of its box, turned its box inside out, and shipped it like that - pretty smooth, I thought.

I've also ordered a carbon filter online - and when it arrived, the UPS guy goes, "Hey, I've got a package for Mr. Hawaiian..? Looks like it's one hydroponic carbon odor filter?"

Then I look at the box: HYDROPONIC CARBON ODOR FILTER

WTF?! What is hydroponic about the damned filter?! WHY MUST YOU STATE THAT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE BOX?!

Wow. They should have added: "For covering the odor of Cannabis Sativa", while they were at it. Dumbasses.

Hydroponic Air Filter. hahhahahahahaha

It doesnt have to say anything at my house. I have well over a pound of primo stanky gorilla Glue #4 bud hanging up stairs. It goes through the walls. The UPS man smells it, the dog walkers smell it, the senior citizen evening walkers smell it, the thieves smell it, If cops are in the neighborhood, they smell it too.

I shit You not!

 

[Dr. Purpur]

the lights need to be close as long as heat is not a problem. Tubes can go close Dan

 

[Hammerhead]

I smell it

You can bring those lights down or Elevate the tray so your baby's don't stretch so much.. These don't stretch at all there just sitting at 2" and growing into a bush. I also have a fan blowing on them all makes the stem stronger..

I still can't get the veg feeds right on the glue !!! they get to a certain stage & they get Mag defeciant . I'm up to 1.5 with the feeds & 4 ml per gallon of calmag plus 1tsp of epsom salt & i've foliard 3x . Damn !!!
anybody tried Botanicares Sweet Raw ? its supposed to be mag sulfate .

evening fellers...

my little seedlings are looking good,they just want out of the dome,but the air is so dry they start to curl almost immediately,just need to crack those vents open a little bit at a time...should also hit them with some silica blast to toughen them up...clones are rooting strongly too,looks like everything is backed up with 2 clones of each keeper which is down to glue,chemdog99 and swtc99...for now...
got a glue into a 20 gallon pot today,sprinkled some myco stuff i had and kept forgetting on the roots,see if it helps...that plant will get put into flower here pretty soon,should have some time to size up...

You can bring those lights down so your baby's don't stretch so much.

I can't . the slanted ceiling really fuks with the way the lights can hung . believe me .... i've tried to get the lights down & straight .... its easier to bring the trays up to the light .
plus these are getting put into cups soon & going in under the T5 rack very soon , where i can bring them up where i want them & its a better environment with much better lighting .

how often do you rotate your plants? im going to guess that the bulb points to the left in that space,if thats true and those plants have been sitting in those spots for a week to 10 days then i bet its because they are getting slightly more light and are in the fan so they are metabolizing a bit faster than the other side...if none of that makes sense than stop doing whatever is causing it and it should stop...lol!

 

[Smokin Joe]

Try as they like, Comercial can't grow like us. We put not only our hearts into these plants, but a bit of the essence of our own souls into this good work as well

Some might even say it's addicting

Whos pic's did you steel?
I gotta get a rez and pump going. I forgot how much hand watering suked with a screen. 3 more days and I'll have to do it again. Think I'll put a wand on a pump in a rez for now. Next round I may go drip.

they get moved around quite a bit . the light is a good 28" away or more .... but your right about it pointing left ...... & thats where ya lost me direction of the bulb matters that much ??? thats the only bulb i don't have a spreader on too ..... fan is kinda pointing at the middle of the pots all 4 plants are getting a pretty even breeze . & the filter is at the peek drawing everything up . intake is the 6" hole on the right .

& if i knew WTF i was doing this wouldn't be happening .... wiseass

yer lucky its puffin time !!!

well...the back of the bulb will emit slightly less light due to there being stuff blocking that small fraction of the light...we are talking fractions here but every little bit counts with plants...sheesh,never heard of spitballin before?
next thought,the roots are wetter on the plants that look deficient or perhaps a bit cooler and wetter at the same time...

I have been having the same problem with my veg plants dan, mag deff. the go nutes seem to be hard for me to get dialed, one thing though is as soon as I transplant from cups to 1 gl pots they take off with no more problems, its really fucking my mind up trying to figure it out.

I think i'll grab another light spreader for that bulb too ...... I just fed till runoff for the first time sense i transplanted them into the big pots . they are hempys so ..... last nights feed is the first time i filled the rez at the bottom . the roots should be able to drink from it now ... if not a couple days most . but .... the 2 glues were the dryest of the 4 which tells me they were drinking fine .they weren't staying wet like you asked . i'm thinkin its more the 0 water & the canna nutes ..... they're made for Tap water & i may be pulling to much out without replacing some of the right micro nutes ....which is why i was thinking the Raw so i can make a decent water with calmag , raw & protekt , before i add my base nutes .
i'm going to disconnect the DI filters & let the water fill a jug , to see what my EC levels are without them .

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]just the glue JW ??? or other plants too . all mine show signs of a mag def to some level , but none as bad as GG

[unclefishstick]

glue seems to like a huge amount of root space,the 10 gallon plant i just up potted had nice roots all the way out to the edges after 3 weeks,the last 20 gallon plant was a solid mass of roots when i broke it up...

 

[Smokin Joe]

Well I don't feel so dumb now lol. I've been having the same battle with mag. Thought it was my cal/mag so I got a new bottle. The plants I started noticing it on are now 32 days in to flower and looking much better but the new veg plants are now showing the same signs. We are all using a different nute line and having the same trouble with the same plant

well there you go,its always traces back to what ever is different...
