yeah, only way to be sure is to have as many of the variables the same as possible.. clones make that perfect. with only 10 extra hours of light, how many total extra hours/days are you adding?

LOL nope :) in fact, it is a Q at the end, not a G ;) my nick actually stands for Big Fucking Q... which comes from a Dennis Leary routine :blsmoke:

there is no way this will work... your water company is far different than mine... otherwise i would gladly help you out. you are gonna have to suffer till you get your pen then. dont worry, it wont be the end of the world.. it will just affect how well your plants absorb nutes.

looking good, man! those should thicken up nicely for you! one thing is for sure, growing slow makes for a nice yield :)

clones dont take much light at all... i have 2 13 watt CFLs over 10 or so clones. and they are a few inches above them. my mother plant has 5 CFLs surrounding it and totals at 80 watts... the bulbs are kept close and the mother is kept short and bushy and this is enough to have it grow enough...

give em at least a week after topping to veg out the new growth... longer would be better though

1 CFL? ouch. 1-2 plants. no comments on the nutes cause i dont use them... others seem to swear by them though. breeding the plants will take males to pollinate with... you dont have the lights for that many plants... check this out...

get a piece of wood and screw your light sockets to it... then get some cheap chain and hooks and you are all set... put a chain on each corner to keep the lights hanging stable... and add a fifth chain that doesnt hold the lights up but keeps them from falling to crush your plants in the event...

they look good but a little small. the CFLs should not only be mounted sideways with a reflector (see the GrowFAQ for making a soda can CFL reflector) and they should be a lot closer to the plants than they look like they are... also, notice how the plant is leaning towards the bulb? this is...

stress can NOT lead to a male plant... that is all about genetics. stress CAN cause hermies though (plants with both male and female characteristics) and this is bad. i have never had a plant hermie from transplanting... only thing i have done to cause that was to fuck around with my lights...

pour both in a container and mix thoroughly. some growers put a handful of perlite in the bottom of the pot unmixed as well but personally i dont like doing this cause when i pull the plant out of the pot i get a nice cloud of bad dust to breath :p

there is no way to say... you are wanting to count your chickens before they hatch. the goal we all start out striving for is a gram a watt. why is it impossible? several reasons but 1 is that you are a new grower and there is a good chance your plants wont make it to harvest... another is you...

get a $5-$10 chemical pH tester... Wal-Mart has a crappy one by the fish. not nearly as accurate as the pens but they do work.

another thing to keep in mind is the "jury by your peers" theory... someone dealing is apt to be viewed MUCH worse than someone who can say, "i give buds to sick people to make their lives less miserable." and the karma cant hurt :D

so, was just back in my grow... and i checked out the topped plant i did in flower and compared it to the new mother i am bringing up that i topped the same day... the plant topped in flower has barely grown the new branches so far and the new mother (in veg) is HUGE and bushy. i doubt i will...

i have two myself... they aint bi so i gotta do all the work... it is a pain in the ass but great googly mooglies is it worth it :twisted: the 18 year old me would run in abject terror from the almost 40 me :mrgreen:

if you are happy, i am happy :blsmoke: truth is though, i could care less what other people think... sure it bugs me when someone calls me an idiot but i aint here for ego. i post cause i got a LOT out of lurking this site and back in the 90's when i grew for real there wasnt anything but JC's...

ScrOG = SCReen Of Green basically, you put a mesh over the plants and let the buds grow through the mesh and tie them down... see the GrowFAQ for detailed answers... to me, in a microgrow they are the ONLY way to fly! letting my plants grow to their max height in my area gave me about a...

no, i dont, but i do know how i am gonna work them out ;) i am just stalling right now because i am about to change it all around soon... i will have 3-4 times the space soon and that will change everything... but it will allow me to duct AC directly into the cab... so, i am planning on going...

fuck that, a good steak is too hard to find there! but Europe is small... Amsterdam is a train ride from most of it ;) i think Cali or Oregon are the best MM States to be in... but i dont know, i aint in one at all.
