    My Last Soil Grow

    I'm close to 60 days and most of the plants look ready. Most of my leaves are starting to yellow and some of the buds on the Mango plants are starting to turn slightly purple. I harvested the top 2/3 of an HDF and got some real nice buds.

    Philo's Purple Passion, Juicy Fruit, Mango, HDF, Ebb and Flow

    Yea. The plants seem to be doing fine so I'm not going to change anything. The roots don't seem to need as much room in hydro as with soil. With 6"*6" fence for support at the top, I don't think I need a bigger pot. Here are some pics at 2 weeks. Some nice little buds starting to show.

    Philo's Purple Passion, Juicy Fruit, Mango, HDF, Ebb and Flow

    I have 1 gallon pots filled with nothing but hydroton. It let's me water several times a day without worrying about root rot.

    Hydroton in Flood table

    I personally like to put them in pots, so I can move them around more easily. I use only hydroton, no rock wool or rapid rooter. I find that they absorb too much moisture and lead to root rot. With just hydroton I can flood every 2 hours, giving the plants plenty of nutes and oxygen. What do...

    My Last Soil Grow

    The last week is the longest week. Everything is looking like it's about ready. I'm going to wait till Tuesday and have a little trimming party. With the looks of big colas and amount of lower buds, I am guessing 1.5 pounds total dry weight. That would make me happy. :hump::hump::hump:

    should my intake/outake fans blow 24hr or not

    I keep mine on 24 hours to deal with the smell more than anything. If my fan goes off for an hour my house smells like a Grateful Dead concert.

    MIT Economists back Obama on Healthcare

    Well God Damn. Let's just throw out the constitution and suspend all freedoms because an MIT PHD thinks some people will save money. Any illusions that socialized medicine will save the country money are based on the misguided belief that the federal government will stick to the constraints of...

    If you voted for Obama, you've the right to remain silent

    I think most Obama supporters are guilt ridden. The bought into all the lies and now they see the damage being done. Honestly I almost bought in to but eventually I saw through the smoke screen. When he was talking about the middle class, and fiscal responsibility, and even instituting Paygo...

    Ppm

    My meter has three readings, EC, and PPM = EC*500, and PPM= EC * 700. Talk about trying to confuse me. I just ignore the PPM and use EC. With mature developed plants I keep my EC at 2.0 and everything seems to work. So if nothing else I am using my meter to maintain consistency. If you are...

    If You Voted For Bush STFU

    The stupidity of the liberal mind never ceases to amaze me. Their inability to put together a logical coherent argument is why they will always be nothing but a joke. Exactly what errors on Bush's part are being fixed by reckless, out of control, unaccounted for deficit spending? I had a...

    should i chop it down soon

    Agreed. The idea of flushing is the biggest scam since the push broom. The only reason I would flush is to save money on nutes when they are least utilized. I've done the side by side comparison, maybe not enough to have conclusive results but I found no difference. The worst part of it is...

    tiger bloom or big bloom?

    Big Bloom is real weak stuff. I use half a bottle every watering. If you could only afford one I would go with Tiger Bloom and mix it with vegging ferts if you have any left.

    When Buying A House - What should I look for?

    My friends just bought a new house and I'm so jealous. It has two basements. One is completely finished and the other is just a big 20X30 room with 9 foot ceilings. The entrance to it looks more like a linen closet in corner. Soon as I saw I thought "Man I could make the nicest, most...

    Fox Farm's feeding schedule adjustment for indoor growing?

    That's what I find also but I've read quite a number of people on here had a problem with nute burn following the schedule. My plants are pretty big and in 5 gallon pots so they can probably handle a little more. Always better to start out with less and feel out your plants.

    Fox Farm's feeding schedule adjustment for indoor growing?

    If you don't veg for that long just switch the nutes to the flowering schedule when you switch the lights to 12/12 and then follow their schedule for next 8 weeks.

    I wouldn't worry about a thing. Be happy that your plants have a strong root system.
