Hey all,
Did a harvest last night 4 plant scrog grow it's all still drying but i had some fun with the trimmings today.
I had saved all the nice sugar leaves and put all the buds that were under the screen in. Put it all in a bucket with a couple of shovel fulls of snow, mixed well for 10 min...
I don't put miracle grow anything near my plants...
Epsom salts is a good cheap source of magnesium. I actually have a big jug of it but have never used it. It should help with the absobtion of what calcium is available as well. I would start slow though and i like the eggshell idea. I use...
I don't really notice the typical burnt tips i usually get from nute burn, but wouldn't totally discount that. It's a pretty small plant to be getting nutes at all really, i would say.
What are your temps like? My leaves tend to curl up when i'm cooking them....
CalMag is your friend....it...
The lumen to watt ratio of a HPS light is a little higher but not enough to make the 90 watt difference. CFL's will allow for more coverage as well, depending on the type.
Plus this is the CFL section so.....the winner is 240W CFL.
I actually just picked up a 150W HPS and it's working well...
My advice would be to A) not overcomplicate things B) do the tests regardless so you know what you are working with and C) don't over water

Hey SJ,
I wouldn't say that they suffer from bleaching, they have only ever really hurt seedlings. It's the worm, larva stage were they out right killed my silver kush seedlings. I was so pissed. The affected plants are mostly in a rubbermaid with 1 cfl and 1 small fan so they aren't too happy...
Hey all,
I hate those little bastards too...here's what i've been doing.
I keep sticky strips up at all times..catches tons of the adults.
Don't over water...I always let my plants dry out well before watering. The worse the infestation the more I let'em dry, to the point where the plant is...
Looking damn good man. can you throw up a shot under the screen? My plants are just thru the screen...on my first scrog attempt and i'm curious.
Thanks

CFL shop lights work great. T8 style is a little out of date now so can be purchased very cheap $20 for a fixture (on sale) they can cover a large area as the bulbs are 4 feet long. They already have at least a crappy refelctor. THey hold 2 32w T8 20000 lumen bulbs.
Hey hey,
Well the big chop was Friday.... see full pictorial of the night here https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-growing/459364-big-chop-replant.html
The not quite final weight currently stands at 163g. I've got the buds in a box to dry a little bit more before going into jars. Is jarring a word...
Well i waited a bit longer than i thought it would have too to harvest, but i've now got 4 girls 3 weeks from harvest that i just switched back to 18/6. They were really just kind of an experiment, i wanted to see how much i could get off of 8 plants and set it up for harvest every three weeks...
68 days flowering Blue skunk under 256W t8 clfs
Chop, she was a monster
There were actually buds growing off the stem...got pretty big too.
The main cola
90% from the monster..but a big box o buds
Manicured with gloves MMMMmmmmnnnn...... The best part the finger...
I use a cardboard box, cut a hole on each side one at each end attach the fan to one hole and connect the other to the cabinet. Air will go around corners...light not so much.
I know that explanation is lame....let me find a pic...
