thank you dontpanicorganic...and sorry, thats the paranoid stoner in me...thats all i needed to see...sloppy hand style though :(

now to your questions:

im based out of cali (hence the Prop 215 Grower sig) but i went to college out in CO and grew in Lakewood & Fort Collins...the DR150 ran me $200 (i got a lot of good connections at hydro stores)...and i use happy frog because i had really good experiences with it during outdoor seasons, ive noticed that happy frog seems to hold water a little longer then Ocean Forrest but less healthy clones can get lost early on with HF because i think the natural nutes in the soil are a little stronger than those in OF

Hey man if you want some real cheap soil that will work great if used correctly?

Its what i use... Miracle grow.

Trust me... there are tons and tons of people here bitching about MG saying that it will burn your plants!
Yet you ask them or you read there grow guide and you see that they are feeding little seedlings at 2-3 weeks in.... I mean wtf...

I dont ever feed with MG...Well maybe in week 6 of flowering... but thats cause im not transferring to bigger sizes... after that just straight water....

Dont pay 19.99 a bag for that sea soil BS... I mean dont get me wrong....loads of goodness in those soils..but at 19.99.... Shit you can get the biggest MG bag i think for 11...

different strokes, different folks...

i get bags that are 2 cubic feet (56L) and theyve always worked pretty A1...outdoors i filled 13 20 gallons trashcans with happy frog and i dont particularly remember it being an astronomical price...

these 20 1.5 g containers needed 2 bags to fill em all up

back to the broads:

girls are looking great today, temps are still down due to this storm rollin through but ive been keeping at around 65F and 55% RH...

pics may follow later

ehhh...thank you...i think, but the veg job was pretty spot on...cant really call it vegging, more of a nursing job due to the shitty clones i received and the severe nute burn from the soil..as for results and if im happy with them, i cant tell, were still not done yet...pretty happy thus far

and yes, those skinny little twigs turned into a jungle...

...a jungle that i will soon enjoy, unless it gets jacked...

...like your plants did

...zing

Ouch. Oh well I've thrown away more plants then you can imagine. So the once I last out side oh well, but as for indoor plants, if they ever got jacked I'm coming out to play

im not sure...the lowest ive gotten at night is 56F...ive seen cats get purpling from 27F at night before...dont know the exact number that induces purple...im more worried about the 15F swing when the lights go off is gonna stunt growth...meh...going good so far though so im not crazy worried about it...this space heater is the shit

its a fun plant to work with...that pinesol sour d smell is just starting to come along (on day 25 of flower now)...only thing that sucks is that i learned that SD is a 10 week flowering plant...i probably would have worked with something else if i would have known prior to starting...but its fun and easy to work with...

Back to the stars of the show:

girls are lookin awesome today so far...bulbs heating up and im sitting at about 64F & 50% RH...girls are getting fat like my waistline after thanksgiving...pics may come later today
