I've gotten some really good growth in the last 3 days since i flushed and upped my PPM's and kept a closer eye on my ph (droping it to 5.8 each morning) and flooding my table only twice a day to allow the pots to dry a bit more. But i am still having issues. See the pictures. What should i be...

my goal is 4 plants per square foot, so i think will be 48 plants in my 5x5 and 63 in my 3x6 but those numbers are from memory. I'd be happy with an oz a plant but i hear of people getting twice that with the right strain and dialed in on nutes/temp/etc. i went with flood and drain over drip...

Ok. Just got done flushing the system. I pulled a gallon off the top of 100% I put the MaxiGro to full strength. Left everything else at half strength except for CALiMAGic. Ph'ed till the pen kept going between 5.8 and 5.9. I'm a little worried about the PPM's. I think it's way to high. It's at...

Sounds like a plan. Appreciate the help. So what do you think might be causing the lock out? Also, my water temps are in the 69 to 73 range.

I empty and refill the res weekly. Every Wednesday, in fact I'm getting ready to do the res in a couple hours, once the sun does down so people done see me watering my lawn from a house inside my house. LoL. I like your idea of filing with 1/3 mixture. That's a great idea. Right now I use a...

So it looks like burn and not a deficiency? What kind of burn? I've been using everything at 1/2 strength except the cal-mag and silicate.

12/12 from seed coco / smart pots flood / drain 3x a day (backed it down to 2x a day, yesterday because i felt the pots were still to wet. 100 ppm starting water 820 ppm after fertilizing (1100-1200 ppm at end of the week. Evaporation problem?) ph starts at 5.7 and adjusted back down to 5.7...

Man, I've eaten the shit outta neem. They use it as a spice in India. It tastes like garlic and cloves. I guess breathing it in is bad though. Well, regardless, I did a neem bath today. I didn't spray it. My girl is the one that takes care of pest control; I deal with nutes. We both brainstorm...

I had mentioned earlier in this thread that my water PPM's start at 100 but it does bare repeating. I haven't mentioned my water temp yet. It seems to fluctuate between 69 (first thing in the morning, right as the lights are coming on) and 73 (right as the lights are going off) I haven't seen...

After pulling two out for pictures, I realized that the HID light was fucking with my eyes. I do have some yellowing but i don't think it's N. Maybe calcium or Magnesium? I really don't know.

Been a couple weeks so I thought I'd give an update. I was harvesting my outside grow which took all of my time. First off, sog from seed isn't the best way to go about things. The seeds germinate at different rates so i have some large plants and some that are just getting their first set of...

Yeah, but not at the same rate. In the same period it went from 5.6 to 5.8. That seemed reasonable to me so i didn't think to mention it.

I have a new BlueLab PPM meter and it's calibrated. I bought the bluelab calibration solution and used it less then a month ago. Still has the little "check mark" on the screen. The PPM's went from 820 to 1080 in 3 days. And the plants look fine so I'm not all that concerned. Just more curious...

Ha. That's it. There is a street light. I measured the light because i figured if it wasn't any brighter then a full moon then it would be Ok. It measured just about the same as a full moon. But it was on every night.

Yeah, that's definitely something i will do next year BUT i don't think that's the reason i got low yeild outside. My outside plants were in 8 gallon pots while my indoor (started outdoor) were in 1 gallon pots and i more weight per plant indoor then i did outdoor. My outdoor girls were all over...

Man, i had some big fans in there but i kept getting wind burn on my leafs. So if it wasn't the heat, why do you think i got such light, fluffy buds and such a small yeild? I really am curious? I don't want to make the same mistakes next year but i need to know what those mistakes are. I...

Thanks guys. I realized that while searching, I was spelling it wrong. Emm. Anyway, spelling Algae correctly, helped my search and there is a lot of info out there. Which leads me to another question, (one that I admit I haven't searched yet) what else would make my PPM's go up?

Did a quick search and didn't see anything related. Anyway, what should i do to control algee in my reservoir or do i even need too? Will it effect my PPM readings? Thanks Hillbillybuddha

Just harvested my first outside grow and I'm pretty disappointed. 15 ladies and about 1.5 pounds dry. Granted I had a lot of issues that I just wasn't aware of until it was to late or didn't have any control over. Half way through veg, I put the ladies in a green house because i live on a very...

Quick update. Changed nutes today. 1/2 strength GH MaxiGro Full strength CALiMAGic Full strength Pro-Tekt Silicon Full strength Botanicare Vitamino Most of the seeds have come up but really look weak. Only 3 or 4 look worth keeping. I'll give them a week to recover. If they don't, I'll...
