Wow your plants really have stayed compact. I may have to look into getting some T-5s for next grow.

Yeah, the T5's keep the internode length really short. Nice and tight plants. The Twilight has started stretching more now though. I'm really liking T5 so far, I'm excited to get started with PAR soon.

What brand T-5 you got? can you take a pic of it for me? I think I might want a 2foot version of it.

I recently upgraded to the Quantum Hort Bad Boy 46, with 3 x 3000k and 3 x 6500k. I was using a SunBlaze 42, still haven't decided what I'll do with it now. Veg tent maybe? I would like to try my hand at mainlining. I would tell you to go with a 2' 8 bulb if you can, especially if PAR is something you may be interested in. I'll take some pictures of it after work today and get them posted for ya.
Cool, I may just do that. Maybe throw one or two of my Nirvana mystery seeds in.
Thanks! It's good to have ya!

Hey everyone, sorry for my absence lately I've been pretty sick and haven't felt like getting out of bed for most of the last week. Due to that, my Northern Lights(hereafter referred to as NoLights) has suffered. I'm going through pictures now and I'll have an update for you all soon, either in the next hour or mid-day tomorrow.
Quick question, my NoLights has some kind of deficiency/abundance/moisture stress(maybe?) I was thinking it's a calcium deficiency so I gave her some CaMg+ but I'm not completely sure. So if anyone could take a quick look see and chime in, it'd be much appreciated. The following are the two best examples of what's going on(curling, browning between the veins, and cracking.)

that looks like a phosphorus deficiency to me. I heard phos will make leaves turn a purplish color. The curling down tips makes me think it is a nute lock out from over nuting.
post those pics in the plant problem forum. See what others say?
goodluck.

I flushed her yesterday, 5 gallons of water through her 1 gallon of soil. I don't know how it would be nute lockout because when this started I hadn't actually fed her anything in a couple days, and I haven't changed my feeding of her. I'll see how she's doing when it's morning time in the tent, and if she's still the same I'll post in the plant problem forum.

Hey everyone! Update time. Pictures are from yesterday. Sorry! Haha.
Twi:
Day: 39
Height: over 50cm/19.7in
Nutes: GO Bloom, CaMg+, BioBud
Comments/Concerns: Had to supercrop her out of necessity, she was about to out grow the space. Not too worried about the stress, she already hermed anyway.
NoLights:
Day: 44
Height: 30cm/11.8in
Nutes: Water
Comments/Concerns: She's being a bitch. Flushed her yesterday, whatever deficiency(or whatever) she has/had hasn't progressed further. Trimmed her up today.

I always hear great things about rope ratchets. I officially hate them. I was sitting on my couch and heard a random crash come from my space. One of the rope ratchets holding my light broke completely randomly and thanks to that Twi may be a goner. Her main stem split right at the third node, most of her tops got "supercropped" again, one of her largest secondary branches was broken clean off, and there may be massive root trauma the entire plant now leans to one side. I've taped her up the best that I can, but it doesn't look good. Thankfully only one rope ratchet broke and none of my other girls were affected.

That sucks man. never used rope ratchets. when I raised and lowered lights I used chains. I got some yoyo hangers with a light once, looked at em and laughed, tossed em in the trash. Now I use screws to attach the light to the bottom of a shelf and raise and lower the plants. Hope your plant comes back.

Yeah, tell me about it. I ended losing about 1/3 of the plant, the rest is growing again though.
I'm too high already to worry haha. I tend to go with the flow anyway, so I don't worry too much.
I'm thinking of new ways to hang them, I have some paracord that I'll probably use.

Let us know what you come up with. I've had issues with the steel wire yo-yo. First day and the screw stripped. Wtf.
