    Yep looking nice and green and strong much nicer than mine. Learn from my noob ass mistake, take their advice, gentle watering and nowt else. My wife looks disappointed at me for feeding my babies too early.

    New to growing - which to keep, which to kill?

    heh yeah tell me about it one of my favourites, didnt want to grow a leggy long flowering sativa for my first grow but had some freebie seeds lying in a drawer so threw em in as insurance. If all the blueberries die and those thrive at least it'll be a tasty ass harvest. I'd LST them to fill...

    Deficiency or overload?

    Ok, thank you very much - your concise answer and the info about the content of the water is most useful. Waiting for my kids to go to bed now before I can sneak up and tend to the girls. I'm using tap water balanced to ph 6 with malt vinegar btw.

    New to growing - which to keep, which to kill?

    I forgot to say, they're in the 4" rockwool cause matey who's grown before said it was good for them - I really have no idea, I'll confess I'm not green thumbed I just hate paying not so nice people for my meds when I can (hopefully) grow it. And ha, yeah the mesh in the back of the tent really...

    New to growing - which to keep, which to kill?

    Thanks for the advice guys. I was wanting to have a max of six going but I spose it won't hurt to keep the others going for now, especially as I seem to be doing such a good job of killing the little girls!

    Deficiency or overload?

    PS bloke in grow shop said root tonic is worth using right from seed as all it does is encourage a strong root system and doesn't burn the plant - is he talking shit or is that ok?

    Deficiency or overload?

    Thanks man, confirms what I'd feared, I guess newby over-eagerness! I'd heard from a few peeps that due to the coco having nothing, they needed a light fert after they appeared above ground. Should I flush them all now, or would that do more harm than good owing to overwatering? I already...

    Deficiency or overload?

    I'm sure this newby question has been asked a thousand times, but having searched and searched I am still none the wiser! My babies popped up 12 days ago and, bar one, are growing very slowly. The leaves have pale, yellow spots on them. I have fed them once with 1/4 strength nutes, and every...

    Do I need to cull some plants?

    4-1 ratio, awesome! You mentioned you have another tent coming, I wonder whether you could flower 1 plant in the other tent, using the CFLs *and* the metal halide since you are using 600w hps in this tent?

    New to growing - which to keep, which to kill?

    Thanks for the quick reply - I'm worrying about them today I have to say! The BB are all showing what I guess is either nute burn or nute deficiency - or possibly just overwatering - I leave it to the experts to advise me! Here is the setup. Very crowded as you can see. Clockwise from...

    New to growing - which to keep, which to kill?

    Oh, also I want to check a couple of things. Firstly, my 250W MH light is about 1.5 - 2 feet above the plants because that's as much jack chain as I have. Is it close enough? Most of them are pretty stretchy is all, like 2-3" tall before the cotyledons. Secondly, once the plants put head...

    New to growing - which to keep, which to kill?

    Hi RIU folks! Been lurking on RIU for a loooong time (such a useful site!) while planning my first grow, but since I now have babies with their heads above ground that I'm worrying about, I think it's time to say hello and ask my first question. Before I ask, here is my setup. I hope I cover...
