first off, welcome dude, and what are your bulbs..

wattage and spectrum of light, they look like there 2700k........ they should be 6500k

 

[dave gilmour]

. finally a few pics!, can you make out the little cotyledons curling downwards. overwatering???. i actually dont know the ph, im still waiting on a testing kit. sounds like good shit ya got 86

 

[tokerthesmoker]

what will happen if they are 2700k? will i order 2 or 4 6500k?

If you're only buying one type buy the 2700k, they flower better under it and it's all about the bloom.

Dave: Try getting those lights closer and bury those stems up to about 1 1/2cm from the leaves.

 

[dave gilmour]

thanks for the tip harrekin. ive done that now.

 

[Smokeydog]

i see, so i presume you just turn the light off for a second then take the picture

wel Dave, nice pics. fingers crossed they wil be monster yielders in a couple of months,
i read somewhere that you should never turn the light off and straight back on again, fucks them up. they need to be let cool down for 20 mins before turning back on.

 

[dave gilmour]

cheers smokey. ive found that if i hold the phone at a certain angle it gets rid of a lot of the flicker, so i wont be turnin the light off at all. are your girls doin well?

Any of you guys grow you're own tobacco? i use benson and hedges rolling tobacco but now they have stopped selling it and i hate golden vergina and shit like that so looked online and tobacco plants are fully legal to grow aslong as you dont sell and they grow outdoors fine in ireland and uk, bought 100 seeds for 5 bucks so ill plant some outdoors for a laugh

 

[dave gilmour]

you might as well give it a go, tobacco used to be grown in the north.

should get the 6500k for veg, i grew with 2700k the first time and they were streched and from what i now know very held back plants, if you even get one it will be a great help, and after vegging under 6500k now i can truely see the difference...

thats not to say that you can`t grow with the 2700k but as stated its not really ideal

 

[kang420]

at least it wont be full of chemicals when i grow it, just pure tobacco

The problem with tobacco is not growing it, it's in the curing, you will not be able to smoke tobacco unless it's cured for a few months, it's way too harsh and your lungs will hate you

 

[fxbane]

Try American Spirit, it's nice, doesn't have that rolling tobacco taste I hate so much. No crappy after taste, great with joints.
