Lights were shipped out this morning and should be here by Wens. . Decided to wait till lights get here next week to do any more clones. If everything works out I will be doing a DIY veg/seed/clone cabinet.gonna go for it and see what I can do like someone told me i am investing in my grow ( just have to keep telling my wallet that ). Well here are the stars of the show
Blue Fire

Jackalope

Thunder Paws in the middle

All are about 42 days old

Clones Blue Fire 10 days old

looks like i might loose one forgot to air em out for 3 days

 

[OttawaGreen]

Looking good. No worries on losing a clone, can just take another. I always do two of each just in case then when none of them die, I give them to friends ;-)

 

[Bearswhowalk]

the clones are aALL BLUE FIRE SO YEAH CAN JUST TAKE SOMEMORE CLIPPINGS

 

[OttawaGreen]

Your lights will be here and it's almost time to switch to bloom

 

[Bearswhowalk]

P/h tester came in today ph at 7 gonna flush with some ph down

 

[OttawaGreen]

Flush with ph adjusted water don't put ph down (cincentrated acid) directly on soil. I believe best water ph for soil is 6.5.
Maybe you knew that already and that's what you meant. Just wanted to make sure

 

[Bearswhowalk]

using coco and perlite think that is considered soil less

 

[OttawaGreen]

I use 5.8ph for my recirculating hydro grows in hydroton clay pellets. Not sure about your setup.

 

[Bearswhowalk]

will shoot for between 6 and 6.5

 

[OttawaGreen]

Either way the point is the same don't mix ph down or fertilizer in the plant pot. Mix it in water sepperately then add it.
Another tip for fertilizer, whatever the directions say I would start with half of whatever they say. They are trying to sell fertilizer as much as possible not trying to make your plants good. More is absolutely not better then the right amount. Nutrient burn will stunt your growth. Once you get the hang of it you can slowly up the dosage from half until you start to see the tips change color

 

[Bearswhowalk]

i knew not to add the ph down straight to plant read the directions and it was a obvious thing for me LOL

 

[Bearswhowalk]

Ok wanted to take the time to say I am getting good at this and have come a long way BUT i could not of done it without you guys. The knowledge i have gained has come from a great community of growers. I just want to say THANK YOU
