Alright sounds good (: I'm using a 150W HPS light so it gets quite hot thats why i got it a bit far away, from to top of the plant to the light bulb is 20-25cm of space. My hand is getting hot if i have it about 15cm from the light, i used to have it closer but put it at the max distance when i...
Hi again! Got a new unrelated issue so thought i'd ask u guys what u think.
So here is the story, my baby is doing well and after 4 weeks of veg (Bit to long i think) i put her on a 12/12 cycle, when i first changed the lights she was about 1 feet tall. Now 9 days later she is almost 2 feet...
Haha ur right! Didn't notice that, but good u pointed it out (: Yeah it's amazing how great info u can get from forums like these (: Actually think all these pics are from threads around this forum except maybe a few, so credit goes to the skilled people of 420mag for the superb info hehe (...
Hi again! Did you give your plants a full recommended dosage of the nutrients? That's way to much, i generally go with 1/5-1/4 rec dosage. My problems also got alot worse when i started adding the BioGrow nute, tho i added to much the first time i gave her (full rec dose) and she got worse and...
I will give my thoughts on the pics u uploaded in a bit, but from a quick look it looks like ur got ur light to close or that ur reflector/reflective surface is creating hotspots. Again i'm a first time grower so it might be best if u ask someone a bit more experianced hehe (:
Hah sorry was a bit stoned (; Nice looking plants btw! If the water comes out at 5.5 ur soil is likley to acidic or u have something in the soil that's lowering ur PH, if ur soil PH is to low u will have nutrient lockouts and other problems, Think u can raise the PH of the soil with Dolomite...
Did u add anything to the soil? Like dolomite lime etc? Sounds to me like ur soil is to acidic, if the water with nutes at a PH of 7.5 gives a runoff with a PH of 5.5. Try getting a soil PH test kit and check ur soil's PH to see if it's to acidic that's the only thing i can come up with. Hope...
Hi! Yeah you have to check the PH every time you water (Maybe not if ur not adding any nutrients) I used some bullshit PH meter when i first started and i always got a PH on the nutes with water at about 7 wich is a bit to high, so i bought an electronic PH meter and now i water my plants with a...
Hi and thanks (: Yeah this site is great for sharing info! Yeah distilled water is basically pure water so it's easier to control the plants nute intake. If u have let's say very hard water at home, ur plant will prob get to much calcium and other things naturally found in hard tap water. I...
