Hydro Bucketeer-Ceres Purp Fem

Re: Hydro Bucketeer-CERES Purp FEM.

Did you splash something on those leaves? It's either that or the part of the root that corresponds to that set of leaves was damaged somehow. Either way is should be no big deal if it's isolated to that site.

U are EXACTLY right MC!..I noticed this mornin when i lifted up the lid,the roots stoped growing on one side of the cup and shifted to the other...weird...ill take pics tonight but thats what happened.

... looks like EXTREME potassium def to me... like a complete lockout, for a couple weeks.

Any deficiency will start to weaken the wax enamel on the tops of the leaves. That grows as a protective layer only when the plant is at optimum health. Comparable to our immune system. If things get out of balance your body starts taking away from its outward defenses to deal with interior issues. As soon as those issues are corrected, the plants goes back to it's normal processes. The same is true for any time the plant goes through a giant hormonal change. Examples being, when it goes into flowering, or when you take a cutting.

Nice info man, I had no idea!

Yes it means I experienced it and it wasn't fun until I figured it out. In my case it was too much nutes in too little water poured directly on the roots of the plant next to the maintenance port. Now I pull a gallon if it's still "at level" and it needs a nute boost.
 
Re: Hydro Bucketeer-CERES Purp FEM.

heres a couple bud shots to hold yall over...

they startin to plump up nicely..

I bought a 500w eq. CFL 4100k but it busted as it fell out the package (spiral)

Gonna put 2 of the 6500k 400w eq. cfl as side lighting asap! They will work fine using HID lighting as long as they at least the same wattage or equivalent ..When i used the 2 400w cfls with my hid on my afgan grow ,it seems like at this stage they were a lil fatter....gotta get those bulbs! THEY HUGE! Made by EIKO.

Re: Hydro Bucketeer-CERES Purp FEM.

How far do you keep those cfl's away from the side? Are they in a reflector on the side? With my 400 mh/hps on top, I was wondering if it would be effective to use the big ones on the side. I have some with not a lot of milage on them that would work well.

Love bud porn on a Friday night!

Re: Hydro Bucketeer-CERES Purp FEM.

They are a little harder to handle putting them in the socket. Suckers are heavy and they don't spin in your hand quite as easy. I haven't broken one yet ( oh shit, I'm doomed - better just get out the dustpan) but I dropped one and it hit my foot but didn't break! I yelled "kick save" and the wife thought I had gone looney (again).

I keep mine in the 4-6" range depending on what the plant tells me. That's why I asked if anyone thought it more benefical to go small but close vs. bigger but slightly further away. I'm sure there's a chart somewhere but I do know that some light is better than no light.

Re: Hydro Bucketeer-CERES Purp FEM.

I put 105s 3 or 4 inches close. Many 105s will not work in the Clamp Reflectors and you have to add an extension socket to get it to burn. I like the 105 Spirals better than the U-shaped tubes.

i have to agree...these nes i have,as long as the laf aint touchin it you good...they practically put out no heat...they made by EIKO.
i added 2 in yesterday.i love these cfls...and yea they make this lil extension just big enough to let you screw the bulb in all the way with the hood.:rollit:
