    600w 24/hr veg Help!!!!

    The only thing about dark periods during veg is stretch! 18/6 will produce much stretchier plants than 24/0-plants grow like crazy during the dark period. I wouldn't recommending anything under 20/4 if vertical height is an issue... A MH will produce much faster growth rates than any fluro, as...

    600w 24/hr veg Help!!!!

    I have the best success with root riots in a heated propagator. I got sick of always buying those root riot plugs so I just started using pro-mix HP for seeds and clones, and I think it's even better(and cheaper). Regardless of what method/medium you use, HEATMATS are amazing. I think heat...

    I wouldn't go to crazy with increasing N. Just hit it a few times with some 'veg' nutes and you should be right back on track. Once your plants are done stretching, you need very little N and your bloom nutes should be fine. Sometimes lower leaves that are constantly in the shade will yellow...

    another tip- always look at new growth when your trying to correct a deficiency. Like I mentioned before, damaged leaves are damaged and will not recover. New growth will tell you if your on the right track. For example, underfed plants in veg will often have streaky purple stems and veins in...

    Yellow leaves

    Taking off leaves will cause some stress, but in my experience it's minimal-if you have a healthy plant removing up to a 1/3 of it's leaves will have little noticable impact on overall growth. In fact, I am ALWAYS removing leaves during veg and flower, both to prevent crowding and shading and...

    Continuing Flower After Harvest

    I really try to not have any buds futher than 1-1.5' feet under the canopy, so I lollipop each of my branches to accomplish this, as anything 1.5' under the canopy seams to produce larfy 'popcorn'. I purposely try to avoid having any 'popcorn' that is so under developed I have to resort to...

    One more thing-once leaves are damaged by a deficiency they will not recover, and they often become crispy and die. DON'T pluck them off until they definitely dead- not becaue plucking leaves is bad for the plant, but if your plants are N deficient, and N is a mobil element, your plants are...

    Yellow leaves

    Other's nailed it on the head...it's the lack of N in your flower nutes. I've made the mistake of switching to flower nutes too soon, however what your experiencing is minimal and IMO no cause for concearn. I almost completely eliminate N after week 4-5, but if I don't give my girls enough for...

    LED vs. HID Double Ended Bulb

    Incandescent is the future bitches! I got a closet full of some purple og super disel og skunk growing under a few 'warm' 40watters...I made sure to put them into some coco and not feed them for a couple weeks. Soon I'll completely defoliate them and make sure to hang a bunch of no pest strips...

    LED vs. HID Double Ended Bulb

    I would be dissapointed with anything that was too far under 1gram/watt no matter what light I grow with. I can consistently yield at least a # per 600w HPS-closer to 1.5 in hydro. My light only costs about $35 bucks/month to run. At the end of the day, I'm still a HID guy because the inital...

    LED vs. HID Double Ended Bulb

    Great line of nutes, geat results, just too expensive if your doing a big grow IMO. Floralicious Plus is the best foliar I've ever used! I use that stuff with every feed as well. One of the only additives I really like, but only for DTW applications :)

    has anyone successfully lowered their opiate tollerance?

    lol, I think MY pic has been stolen!

    has anyone successfully lowered their opiate tollerance?

    I believe suboxone did the same thing for me...but it also saved my life. My opiate receptors were fried before I got on the suboxone, as it still took me about 5-7 days to get any relief from them at all. Early on in my opiate career a sub would make me feel 100% better within a half hour...

    You and me both! Recently had some when I met up with an old friend, it was well over a year old as he's apparently been hoarding/nursing it for quite some time... What a blast from the past! Even though it was old, it was stored properly and that taste brought me back!

    Sounds like a traditional OG. I always thing Lemon and Kerosine/fuel, if not just fuely in the case of the more old school OG's. A lot of the newer OG corsses are amazing(I'm growing alien right now and I'm impressed, haven't smoked her but almost done), but when I think OG i want that lemon...

    has anyone successfully lowered their opiate tollerance?

    I thought it was in addicts head that you 'pick up where you left off' but it's not. You brain remembers what is good, and when it gets that chemical again, the endocrine workers all think they are getting laid off so they stop showing up for work pretty quickly...and we all know how hard it is...

    has anyone successfully lowered their opiate tollerance?

    Opiate tolerance is a bear, and if it does go down, even after years of abstainence, your brain down regualtes very quickly, meaning that if you pick up again your tolerance goes right back to where it was within days of constant use. I've had almost year long breaks, and the magic was back the...

    The Learning Curve Could use some advice

    You can try blowing your exhaust up too, that definately might help. Running your lights during the coldest part of the day helps too. My lights come on when the sun goes down. You do need to get your temps down, below 85, but I think your soil and container size had the most to do with...
