my first try with the cfl's

[greendot]

Don't know bout the vermeculite jus really didn't think bout it like that will it hurt my plants

 

[izzybud]

the height on those are gonna be interesting. are u changing bulbs to 1 for flower or running 2-3? i run micro but not that small. veg or flower. mix should be alright.

 

[greendot]

Found a pic of the cooo intake well fresh air intake lol sorry hour that i will get the icmag lingo going giv me a cycle............

 

[greendot]

Don't know bout that yet I was thinkin that I wouid go back to my setup with 3 26 watters but I really dont know I hav a total of 6 bulbs 3 26 watters and 2 30 watts and a 42 watt still waiting on the best info before I change it up ....can I jus run one 42 watt or the 2 30 any suggestions

 

[izzybud]

ur gonna have to either check out other pc grows and see whats works with 4 or 2 if they are regular not sure the ratios ull get. and u must be able to control the heat. the number of plants(height)/light size(number of lights)/heat will be ur main issues.

 

[greendot]

Yea my heat right now is bout 80 had to transplant again to smaller pot well trays cause the light hieght was to close and i wouldnt of had any vwg room

So I am still praying for females and I will post picks soon to show u wats going on

Idk bout nutes shud I I would like to keep it organic as possible any seggestuos on wat I shud nute wit

While Micro growing, be ready to LST the shit out the plants, don't be scared of hurting them, they love it. Just bend down the branches and tie them down... Make sure that fan is pushing the air out thru the top... You can use passive intake!

If you are going to try to keep it organic, I would get some work castings, and top dress the plants, an 1" or 2" over the surface of the pot, maybe start a wormbin and make your own compost. Well worth in the long run! You can get some of the Espoma Tone mixes, try to get something for tomatoes. A few tablespoons of it should be good... You can make some tea's with EWC+mollasses and water the plants with it. Theres a lot of info on the Organics forum. Read thru the stickies, they are a huge source of information!

Try to find a container that is low and wide... The more root space you get the better yield you will have.

Good luck and take care!

Peace

my lights

my lights

So I have been reading up on the lights they say keep them close to the plant I understand that but Wat if I keep them away so they can strech out and then I could flower sooner .........


Or should I keep them close there whole life till flower

 

[greendot]

This will be the set up the last one lol hope it works out

 

[Buddah Watcha]

I would keep them as close as possible. Otherwise they will stretch and not grow as nice as you would want. Keep them an inch or two away and you will be fine!

Peace!

 

[izzybud]

yeah keep em as close as possible. easier to use something to hoist the pots to the light than to have to move the lights to them. im interested to see how ur heat is gonna turn out with that aluminum pan on top of the lights.

 

[greendot]
