the AG nutes are pretty nice tho, i always put them in right from the start, never had any problems, but it is always good to be cautious

Nice looking roots! The brown spots are prob from the nutrients. I'd stay with 24 hr light. I don't think you can give them enough light in the AG.

Nah you cant give em too much light but you can burn them from the heat of the lights.I had alot of successful grows with the AG and i always got those lil brown specs and so does a friend of mine but if your not overfeeding and the ph is rite i wouldnt worry bout it.

Yep, same here. Brown spots all during the grow. Not a big deal. Better nutrients might fix it though.

Thanks man! I'll switch back to 24 hour lighting, you're right, it's probably just the nutes. My only concern was from an excerpt of a growing book which said that fewer hours of daylight results in more females. Does lighting affect gender at this stage of growth?

no only when its 12/12 is when the plans can turn hermi because of a disruption of the light cycle

so are you saying your plants have a better chance of being hermi if you change the light cycles?

yea during the DARK cycle there must not be interrupted by any light whatsoever.i know a guy that the light on the solenoid on his co2 bottle turned the part of ther plant hermie that the lil tiny light was hitting and the rest was fine.If you have to have a light..use the GREEN bulbs at wally world.That wont hurt them

Good point. I would recommend running the 12 on during the day and 12 off at night. This way if there are any light leaks (and you should do your best to prevent this) the grow is still less detectable. I've heard that even limited interruptions in the flowering phase can cause a plant to return to veg.

Very interesting, thanks! What Kelvin are the green bulbs at? How much do they cost?

I realize what the second growth is at the base of my plant! I think I might have left a thyme seed inside when scraping out the pod!! Do you think this will be a problem? Will the roots begin tangling with each other?
