[Dr. 215]

Nice man, so how long into 12/12 are you? They look very healthy.

 

[four20friend]

They are looking nice even and healthy.nice start.

I think you need to increase the photo period
to 18/6 for a month.

sorry bro, these plants and the seeds behind them are in and out. i'm going to keep a simple 12/12 setup like the 4 random heavy hitters thread. all that vegin prolongs my misery. clones might get a lil veg time, but i doubt it.

Sick Pearl?

How is it doing today? I see there is a plastic bag inside the container, am I correct? When is the feeding to begin? By going into a 12/12 right off the bat, some Nitro will still be needed, but not nearly as much as if they were in an 18/6 cycle. Question for you. Is the containers with the plastic inserts all the way into the pot? Does this allow for drainage? Possible overwatering with no Nutes.

 

[nbk380]

that soil has good nute levels. i did give them all a round of 18-18-21 a couple days ago. the queens are ready for the ff beastie blooms but i holdin out for pistols - any day now-

the pearl is a sativa dominant strain. i was thinkin i need to go opposite what im doin w/the queens. as far as the watering, i dont think the pearls getting enough. its treated the same as the queens and that aint workin. im moving it from the grow bag to a pot so i can be more hands on w/it. i'll put pix up later. its still adding new growth, just the lower stuff is wilting away.

I guess you have been growing this strain this way ?

I tried it with some Jamaican
and they still had to have 11 nodes
before they would start to flower.

I just thought it might speed up if they had more light.

I wanna watch your grow
and learn how you do this,
as it would save electricity
only running 12/12 for the whole grow.

Are you growing an auto flowering strain ?

Anyway, thanks for the nice thread,
I am gonna watch your grow

 

[nbk380]

^ it's my first time w/these particular strains, but im just testin the waters so to speak. i had real good luck w/my completed journal going 12/12 from seed even the clones went 12/12 so why not? i have added a 1000wt hps to the 500+ watts of cfl's i had for that journal so the energy savings of a 12/12 WILL be noticeable. But mostly it's my impatience! they bud faster in 12/12.

 

[Earl]

Cool.
I gonna be watchin'

[Stizz1e]

dude it looks like that last pic has some crazy ph problem....that plant is straight yellow.

 

[Dr. 215]

I think its the HPS light on it, i may be mistaken though.

 

[nbk380]

dude it looks like that last pic has some crazy ph problem....that plant is straight yellow.

It's all yellow thats not just the lighting.. re potting is all i think will work. it's growing w/the rest of them and they are growing fine. gotta be the dirt not the routine.

 

[Nunya Biz]

Try flushing it out. I had the same problem. I stopped using the nutes I was using and flushed it out until I could afford some new ones and it started looking better right away.

 

[pan4gold49]

NBK380 I hope things are looking and going well with your grow.

It looks good to me.
