Oops, thanks for the correction.

You're getting some pretty good results with a very affordable and easy to use fertilizer.

Are you going to add any other nutes, or just go the whole grow with the Schultz?

[Mr. The Ninja]

well, it does seem to be working, but i should point out
im strapped for cash lately, and i live in a small hick town
we've got a walmart, a lowe's and a Feed'N'Seed
none of them carry anything fancy like FoxFarms
and this stuff is CHEAP ($2.50 - 4 oz bottle
i know if i were to use better nutes i could do better
but for the price, i find its giving the results i hoped for
so yes, i think ill just doo the whole thing with this stuff
(this if the farthest point i've ever grown a plant to)
id love some suggestions though

i still have some helly chest congestion, but i dont feel so rundown
the clone holder - i broke my ankle in 4 places back in May (lortab^_^)
unfortunatly the clone didnt work out, was yellow and limp, i did away with it
i rearranged the grow closet, ill put some pictures up as soon as i can find my damn camera, i left the pics on there

Looking good
Broke it 4 places? Time to get rid of the bike (if you ride one)
I final sold mine, figured I was gona kill myself
You really did a good job on the grow room. Mylar would help and its cheap.
Even aluminum foil works, but use the dull side. Brite side not good causes hot spots. I haven't tried clones yet. From what I've read many have trouble getting clones to grow. I'll try a few soon.
You've really improved the your grow space. +reps

[Mr. The Ninja]

no bike involved MedMan, funny ass story if you consider
im a 20something potsmoker, heavy metal fan, dressed in black
i was trying to help a group of little kids save a kitten, before a dog got to it
i jumped over the railing of a porch- straight down to the ground, landed on my feet
took a step, realized i couln't feel my foot, nother step, it hurt so bad i started laughing
but yeah, the white plastic i put up in the box
i used some huge industrial garbage bags, cut em into sheets, stapled it up
as far as clones, i might try again on this one^_^

It's probably not the best nute for hydro because it has 8.2% urea nitrogen and the organisms needed to convert urea nitrogen to usable nitrogen are not present in hydroponic systems.

I did some reading and it can be modified so that it will work better.

"To each gallon of water I added the following nutrients:
28 drops of Schultz liquid fertilizer 10-15-10, one half teaspoon potassium nitrate, and one forth teaspoon magnesium sulfate(Epsom salt)."

Got Me! I made the assumption by the way you were dressed in your picture. LOL Nothing wrong with Heavy Metal.
I can see you laying there laughing and the kids looking at you.

I know this not really part of your journal, but I couldn't resist

[Mr. The Ninja]

Sun - thanks for the info, i know where to get epsom salt, but where would i find potassium nitrate?

MedMan - three things my friend, 1-i never fell down, i walked away
2-i kept my cool for the kids' sake (had just smoked some G-13)
3-you are one kickass "old guy" , old is a state of mind, and you're not there yet^_^

as for the journal - no new developments
i had my hands full with home repairs today

oddly enough though, the guy i get my smoke from, lets call him "Jerry"
he's the biggest expert in my area (on weed) he's always got some wicked medical grade
and he's seen my plant as recently as a week ago
well, he has asked me to help him build a growbox
i was flattered, so i said yeah

[bols24]

nice thread!!!
and beautiful plants!

Here ya go:

USP Grade Potassium Nitrate, (Saltpeter), 500g for sale. Buy from The Science Company.

KNO3 Potassium Nitrate 1 lb 98.9% Fertilizer grade Bags - eBay (item 180380132089 end time Oct-07-09 0720 PDT)


It's also commonly known as "saltpeter." If you have pyro tendencies, it's great fun to mix with an equal part granulated sugar, melt it down in a pan you don't care about over an ELECTRIC hot plate OUTSIDE, then let it cool down so that it sets up. Makes really good smoke bombs, lol.

Don't blow your ass up.

[Mr. The Ninja]

thanks Bols
and thank you Sun
i transplanted dc2 into a 6inch planter today
and in an attempt to adjust my lights, i burnt 2 leaves on the Behemoth
all is well though
also i totaled up the lighting
i came up with 390watts to generate 39,500 lumens

DC1 and DC7

DC4 and DC2

the big trophy leaf

the damage(clipped the burns off)

the top bud

[Mr. The Ninja]

Sun, i like your smokebomb recipe
so iv'e got one for you *generic use at own risk warning*
Homemade Napalm
feed chunks of styrofoam into a container of gasoline
the styrofoam dissolves, resulting in a thick white syrup
it sticks to anything, and water won't put it out^_^
(recipe provided for educational purposes only)

btw everyone, its day 51

Hey Man Thanks for the compliment. I don't feel old in mind so guess that's what counts.
Jerry your friend really paid you a compliment too
If I remember right from chemistry class that potassium nitrate is one thing you don't want to do is get any on your hands it changes the pigment in your skin to blue/black and you can only get rid of it by wearing it off. Months
That Napalm sounds awesome. Glad it was for info only
Your doing great now man, good light and good grow space and great looking plants

[Mr. The Ninja]

couldnt see any visible progress today
and i've got a little kid over for the weekend
so hopefully ill find an oppurtunity to take pictures tommorow
thanks for the warning MedMan, will wear gloves

dude, easy
a charger/adapter you dont use anymore
anywhere between 9 and 12 volt is fine
strip your wires, connect, tape, enjoy
if you mix up pos/neg, it wont spin
it only works one way on a brushless motor
