    Its from the flushing. It'll come back. Dont worry about it. just watch it from now on till its healthy again. Im currently growing my first plant and I tortured the poor thing at first but now its back to normal and growing beautifully.

    For cloning i suggest getting a medium sturdy box and building a small seperate unit with cfls. For vegging, if you're wanting to grow in all stages at the same time then you will probably need to get 2 seperate lights and another room. Once you start flowering you have to keep the plant in...

    How many plants?

    Yeah. Im not too worried about about being busted. Its all for personal. Shes just paranoid about everything. She refuses to go anywhere near the the drains along the road for fear that she might step in it and the first 30 min. of interstate driving are full of "ohhh my gods" and gasps. Shes...

    I want to build a hydro system and I need to know how many plants a 400w MH/HPS can grow from start to finish.

    Theres two types of lights that are generally used for vegetative growth. Flourescents and MH bulbs. If you only want to grow one plant and dont have a whole lot of cash to be spending on the lights go with Compact Flourescents (CFLs). These are the energy saving bulbs you can buy at wal-mart...

    Brown tips.

    CFL. I lowered it half an inch and left it alone for about 10 hrs. Theres no new damage so i think itll be fine.

    Brown tips.

    Only the tips closest to the lights seem to burn. The others are fine. I do use nutes but very little and my plant is a month or more old. It has about 8-10 leaf sets. Im sure its old enough to take the nutes. I lowered the plant about another half in. Im gonna watch it and see how it does.

    Brown tips.

    My tips are starting to burn on my plant. My only question is whether or not I should clip the burnt tips off

    how many cfls?

    It was just a suggestion. The thing with cfls is they have to be close and they have poor penetration. Once your plant gets more than 6 in tall with a more than a few leaf sets the bottom leaves will be getting next to no light. Plus all that heat from the lights will probably scorch your...

    Knowledge is Ganja? help me-Cfl first grow

    Just use plain water until you get about your 7th leaf set. Then use only half the nutrients you normally use. wait untill the next time you water it and see how it looks. If it looks nice and healthy keep with the half nute mix for 2 weeks then go full strength wait till the next watering and...

    how many cfls?

    If you're only gonna work with the one plant then it will be plenty. Also dont hang all of them directly above the plant. put one on each side and two on top. You can use a can to make a reflector for the side lights so all the light is directed at the plant. You cut out half of the middle part...

    Instead of bone meal get some worm castings. Its like crack for plants. Best natural fertilizer. Also if you have like $25 and a fair sized plastic bin like a 30 gallon tote your can actually buy the worms and all you need to make all the best compost your plants will need is scrap breads and...

    Knowledge is Ganja? help me-Cfl first grow

    Give the young plant a while to grow before you decide to do anything like trimming it. If its between topping and LST go with LST. topping causes stress to a plant. the more stress the more likely it is to get a hermaphrodite. and u dont want that. I strongly urge you to go with LST. Both...

    Knowledge is Ganja? help me-Cfl first grow

    Your lighting is fine as long as you keep your lights close to your plant. I currently use 3-20 sum watt cfls and they work well. If you wanna get more lights and can afford them get them. the more light the more energy for growth. however there are a few things u should know. 1. U have to...
