[StonerGrower]

try to keep the ph down around 6-6.5
Use the fox farms feeding schedual, its a perfect guide.

By "hydro shit" do you mean coco coir?

 

[getsumkin]

How tall do you plan to let the plants get before going 12/12?

 

[getsumkin]

well ima let them go 1-2 more weeks depend om the growth of them...

I think you have way too many plants for the size of your grow space and available light. Also, I am confused by how you describe the dimensions of your grow space. Can you pls re-post in feet and inches, without the commas, I think you are best to go straight to flower and avoid vegging any longer. To give you an idea of numbers, Cees from No Mercy flowers 21 plants in 1m2

 

[getsumkin]

well the space is 2feet8inx2feet8inx5feet...i just mite go to flowering just dont wanna get 6g dried bud per plant.if i go in a week what do u think i can get dried per plant..ino im askn for your guess...i will look at the no mercy..ido plan on addn about 200watts of cfl in the flowering stage aswell...thanks for chimin in moose

 

[Smokin Moose]

I honestly think that 6 or 7gm dry weight is all you will get per plant with your setup. Using cfl's you just don't get the bud density and yield from a HID. With the HPS, you may up this to 14gms per plant, which is a better result.

 

[getsumkin]

well i need to wait till what size to get ounce per..and if ur rite i should jus do 2-4 plant hoping thant there all girls... i jus cn better with alot of plants with 600watts hps..like 34 in a 4x4x6 but only 8 were females but no the less they looked great.but plz dont get me wrong this is my first grow and i need all the help i can get...just tryn too get ne where from14-28gm per..i think 4oz will get me by for 3months
if i let them go to 18in myb ounce per...its 8 in here hopeing for 5 females
im go search for the Cees from No Mercy flowers 21 plants in 1m2
just mite try that ina week or so it just repoted wanna give them time to get in the dirt

 

[CharlieMopps]

Just as a reference, if you get 9 grams per plant dried and you grow out 6 plants, thats 2 ounces all to yourself for barely 3 months work.

 

[getsumkin]

thanks for all the input..ok tell me this,how can lr#2 and all the auto flowering strain give 9-56gm per and r only 12-18in high..in wantin mine to get 12-18in high but if the setup wont allow that then i will go for 6-10in but the 12/12 from seed sounds good to me aswellhere r sum pic of mine plants so u can get an idea

that just two plant..to show u size

 

[getsumkin]

ok time for a 3day update...temp has been 90+ got my euro reflector but i dont think my inline pulls enough air out..the same one as before...any suggestions and a fan that mite do the jodb alil better....plants seem to b doin fine..here sum pic of plants ill take sum of the way i have the reflector setup wit the duct work later...

[TxState]

ok so i have jus used sum nuts...1tsp Grow Big + 2TBS Big Bloom water was 6.5 ph..
at first to ph was 7 thats the r\o water..it should b rite now...

The foxfarm Big Grow is for when they are in veg right?? Im thinking about getting some Big Grow but I dont want a fert that will promote flowering... Any suggestions guys?

 

[Be Irie]

The grow big is good if you want to use chemicals... USe fish emulsion for your veg stage, cheap and easy to find and good for the babies too... Grow Big is strong, so if you decide to use it go easy at first and work your way up...

 

[Damagoman]

fish emulsion

yeapper, all I use now, even in the truck garden.
Other than compost.

ok so i waterd wit 3tsp GB and 2tbsp BB gave water till it ran out the holes...this was sunday..temp has been good daytime is 78-85f and nite is 70-73F humitiy is 40-50and p/h was 6...jus wondering ...wen i touch and rub the plants my hand smell so good..not sure if its the nuts..but on a good note im planing to veg till the 5th mayb the 1st...then ima give 24-36hrs of no lite then put the hps and cfls in ang go to 12/12..iv been shortn the 18hrs down by 1hr every 2-3days ..now its down to 15hrs

two days

 

[Harry Red]

That's a lot of nutes for the 1st time out my friend. The maximum recommended for soil is 2 tsp GB and 1 tbsp BB per gallon of H2O, every other watering. Check the soil feeding schedule PDF on Foxfarm's website.

You might not want to feed them for awhile after that dose.

Good luck!!

I would be surprised if you did not burn the shit outta them...I think I would actually flush them before the damage is done.. How old are they? It should be interesting to see how they react. Did you use a full gallon of water?
