So I put them into flowering last night going to change over to hps in about a week. Im also going to get them a mix feeding of grow and bloom the first two weeks of flowering

So I order a grow tent and a few other things to try and get a more suitable grow area and to organize my cloest better. The next thing I would like to buy is a 600 or 1000 watt lamp.
Anyway, the plants ended up having a ph problem the tips of my leaves started to curl up. So I flush them pretty well added some ph down and they seem to be nice and healthly once again

Just waiting on the ducting and fan for the cool tube. Slowly building a proper grow room

I'm still waiting on the vent fan for the light. But the temp is staying around 80 so it's not bad. The ph problem is now fix and they seem to be moving along while they are getting half strength nuts twice a week and water when needed. The purple urkle seems to be a little bit a head of the fruity pebbles.

My ducting and fan came in yesterday. I attached everything to the cool tube. And will metal tape everything tonight. Still not sure where to vent to as this is a cloest grow. But at least the light is being cooled. I was able to lower it 6 inches to be at 12 inch above the plants. Will take pictures tonight.

Not much to say but the purple is starting to show on the purple urkle feed both plants today a half a teaspoon of old age bloom in a half gallon of water ph to 6. They don't seem to like it any higher. Will post non hps photos soon.

Good lookin plants man! Love me some purple nugs..

 

[wcrustin90]

These are the non hps pics of the plants in the 3rd week of flowering. They urkle is looking really good already. The fruity pebbles looks like she's flowering a bit slower

 

[wcrustin90]

So the purple urkle has spider mites I notice it today. They haven't stared Web and I didn't notice any on the fruity pebbles. I treated them both with insecticidal soap sprayed the floors and walls. I also did some research, and a lot of people on here use sns-217. Seems to have great reviews, so I order a bottle today. I also cut a bunch of the infected leaves off and trashed the hope that helps slow down the population. Has anyone use the sns-217 during flowering? Will post pics tomorrow when the lights are on. But besides that I feed with full strength nuts and a half strength old age kelp, and a dose on cal/ mag all ph to 6.5.

Lookin good man. Sucks about the mites. I wouldnt use the sns 217 during flowering. Well to be honest, i wouldnt use anything as a foiler spray during flowering. Can u get some mantisis? Or ladybugs? In a previous closet grow, I used window screen as a secondary barrier for my door (hung it from the top, weighted the bottom with a round wood dowl,and let gravity do the rest) and i let 2500 lady bugs do their thing. Lady bugs perfer aphids, but they'll eat anything given the fact its all they got. My prob was fungs gnats. Ladybugs did the job. Ate all my larvea. Maybe u need mantisis? Typically inexpensive compaired to loosing a harvest. Dont wanna smoke sprays. Organic or not, it will affect taste. And it would cause u moisture probs on budsites.
