is the other a female?? or still waiting?Yo!!!! Tall one was a male chopped , pic about a week old
\how big will my plants get if start to flower at 5 weeks veg? there 3 weeks into the vegatative stage and are about 5 inches tall and 9 inches wide
nah man i grow with low humidity all year long it shouldnt be your problem..a 250 watt MH and some high output CFL's on every now and then... i am starting a 20/4 light cycle tonight. my room is at extremely low humidity and i think that may be a reason why my plants are suffering.. pics soon for both questions. . how big will they be? (they are 3 weeks old today) and why are the leaves curling and turning yellow?(humidity is at about 13% average)
i will be flowering with a hps 250 watt and about 230 watts of flourescents
can't veg for to long as i need to be harvested by may when i move to california for the summer!!well you should veg probably 2 more weeks. then start thinking about flowering but that plant will stretch in flowering and those bud sites further from the light will not be as dense or quality as your buds closer to the light. 250w light penetration is not very high anything pass 12 inches is not worth a budsite IMO...
if you want to maximize you yield and let your plants grow longer i would look into some techniques such L.S.T OR SCROG right now would be great to start ethier of these techniques...

Need some help here guys. I just got this 250 W and hung it over my grow. It's about 14" above the tops. The buds are whispy and I dont have/want to hassle a cool tube. I have a 6" fan blowing between the tops and the fan while the lights are on, How low can I hang this without burning the tops. I put my hand under it and I feel a little warmth, but nothing bad. Please help...thanks Hairy
can't veg for to long as i need to be harvested by may when i move to california for the summer!!
You helped a bunch. I also has a 12" oscillating fan blowing across the tops so I'll try and move it a lot closer. Doesn't that glass cover really cut down on your light intensity?..thanks for the help.get that light down to the range of 5" - 12" as low as you can just run a fan blowing on your light and another blowing on the plants canopy you should be fine..
just put your hand right above the tops of your plant to see how hot it is you should tell/feel when its to hot or not...
i run my 250w HPS about 5"-10" anything over 12" from the light is not worth budding in my eyes they will be airy and not as quality as the closer buds... but whatever works for your light i have a glass cover on mine so i assume that helps with my heat some what... but thats a good looking setup you got going there hope all goes well!!!!
hope this helps ya ...Wretch

Have one on me....
Yeah, that's what I've read on several boards on here.you know what i never thought about that wow!! ill look into that.. thanks lol
if your not feeling any heat l would put them closer ..Yeah, that's what I've read on several boards on here.
I moved the light down to 10" from the tops and I have a 6" fan blowing between the tops & the hps and a 12" oscillating fan stroking the plant tops. I dont feel any heat on my hand to amount to so....fingers xx'd, they will be okay. Maybe I can move it even closer. It's a hang-up I have. I'm just paranoid I'll broil them.
I noticed a growth spurt this morning when I topped the res. I'm going to read that other thread you posted right now. Thanks, your a great help...+rep.if your not feeling any heat l would put them closer ..
me and several other's run under 10" all through flowering and i even get some buds taller than others less than 6" from the bulb that dont burn.. so as long as your moving that heat in the air you should be fine
