I'll be posting some new photos tomorrow of the clines that are now flowering so you can better see what I am speaking of.
How To Use Progressive Web App aka PWA On 420 Magazine Forum

Checked them out unfortunately they don't have a US converter and I'm not sure they ship to the US but they did have a good selection from what I saw. Guess I'm stuck with world wide seed (which is not a bad thing at all) i haven't seen many other places that sell to the US and have single seeds.
Also this is for anyone. I'm thinking of switching to a 400w HPS but i know nothing about the HPS and what goes into it. I saw some have a ballast and not sure what that is for or if its needed. I noticed a lot of people get much larger plants when using hps, I have only ever used CFL bulbs due to having limited space and Im not sure how much harder it would be to control the room temp with a larger bulb. Anyway if anyone has any good info let me know.
OP, Are you Tnoldon with a name change (or should I not ask?)?
What type of clones are they that are flowering? Any chance they're autoflowers?
Most plants will show their sex prior to bloom if they're vegged long enough, so they may not actually be in flower.
If they're in flower and you put them back under 18/6 it will take them time to revert back to veg (at least a few weeks), but they will revert back, unless they're autos, in which case you can give them as much light as you want and they're still gonna flower!
Demon does ship to US. The Attitude has a pick and mix section for single seeds. As for demon not having a converter, go to XE - The World's Favorite Currency and Foreign Exchange Site and you can convert anything.
Re: the 400Watt HPS there are Super Agros, you can use Metal Halide until you put to flower then switch. Hortilux makes bulbs called super blue which have both in them. You will need a ballast as it powers your light. I recommend a 600 or 1000 watt switchable digital ballast. Unless your space is really tiny at least 600 watts is better and with a switchable ballast you can go down to 400 watts for vegging if you want and turn it up when into flower.
Thanks for the info! I will have to check out demon seeds a bit more. I wasn't sure how it would work if im paying using a US card wasn't sure if they would except me or not.
Ok so with HPS you do not use a regular outlet like you would use for the CFL grows? Also do they make your plants actually grow larger then using just CFLs? I am still researching them they seem like it would work better then what I'm doing (not that CFLs are bad though )
Just a quick update since im busy today But I finally got some real nutes for once. I got FoxFarm Tiger Bloom and I hope this fixes some of the issues with my plants. Also this is my first time ever using real nutes so I am hoping nothing bad happens I am going to start at 1/2 strength and see how things go from there. If it seems like to much then I will back it down a bit.
I used to use all BC products, but have had a good deal of luck with Humboldts Oneness, which is an all in one nute so no mixing. I also use Carboload, Overdrive, and Big bud during flowering.
You still haven't mentioned how big a space you need to light.
Sounds like good stuff Sorry I advent gotten back to you quick enough Squeezeflo, the space is in a closet about 2.5 feet wide and 6 feet long..its a small space. I am planning on buying a grow tent soon though so space isn't a big issue.
In that case a dimmable 600 Watt ballast like a Lumatec would be perfect. You can dim to 200, 400, and then 600 and the really bright setting. You would have less heat problems in the closet or you'd have to come up with a way to vent it besides just fan. When you get the tent 600 watt would be good unless it's a huge tent. So you already have a 600 watt bulb(s) for the tent. The walls in the closet should be flat white or you can get some panda film to put up to brighten the closet more.
Hey OP!
First off, I cant remember what size pot your Raspberry cough is in, but for some reason I suspect this is an issue with your roots. Maybe he's root bound, or doesn't like the soil?
You may consider a good flush, slowly run 6-8 gallons of water through the soil. I've had an issue or two in the past that were helped greatly by flushing. I stuck a 4' NL in my kitchen sink and ran it for quite a while.
You may also be experiencing lockout, due to salts or, this strain may not like the PH?....
I'm far from an expert, but I would start with a flush, give it a few days and see how it goes. From there you can start your search for resolution, by process of elimination.
Also, here's a good place to start looking....Plant Abuse Chart
RE: The cloner....Imho, you may want to concentrate on getting these girls(and boy lol) through this grow before you start messing with the cloner. Aren't they all in flower now anyway? It's really kind of a waste to try to clone a plant while its in flower.....But it's up to you buddy, I'm here if you get bored and want to throw it together!
with the sickling, I'm betting you can get him to pull through. It'd be pretty cool to see you start breeding! I'm pretty interested in breeding lately myself. Talk to you soon...
-Q
OP, your raspberry cough looks, to me, like it may be a Phosphorous deficiency. Have you tested the runoff PH?
There's great info on diagnosing problem in this thread:

I hope this helps &
