    Very nice!!! Fucking frosty as fuck!!!! Congrats on your second grow man, looks great. I'm finishing some diesel right now, it's a high yielder (IME) and top-heavy like a motherfucker. I have to be careful moving them or they'll flop right over!!! So what are you using? lights/nutes/soil?

    A few questions on CFL rigs

    1) My CFL rig is 24/0 for at least a year now but I wouldn't worry about putting cfls on timers at all. Should be perfectly fine. 2) Yes, you can wire a couple dozen to a single extension cord without problems. 3) mmmm, if you've got the cash, by a nice t-5 rig. If cash is short, get a...

    Which Nutrient Deficiency Is This?

    Personally, I'd give them a shot of veg nutes inbetween regular feedings. Once or twice and see how they respond.

    Can i use training techniques during a 12/12 grow?

    It might extend your flower time, depending on how much you stress them. If it's 12/12 from seed, I'd leave them alone and grow one big fat cola on each plant. Higher growroom density, IMO. Del6666 grows colas as thick as footballs, I'm amazed at what can be done in 12/12 grows.

    Wingin' It

    Very nice, I hope your grow turns out as well or better than mine did. Yea, I did that this grow. I didn't even write down dates, just trying to listen to my plants. It didn't go perfectly, but still went better than I expected. I'm maybe 2 weeks from harvesting the biggest buds I've ever grown...

    Taking clones from non fem plant

    Grow as you normally would. When you identify the females, pick the best and healthiest for your mother and keep her in veg.

    Hypothetically speaking, if you could start all over what would you do differently???

    I cheaped out on my vent fan. Lucky for me though, I had 9 air conditioners at the time. I would've kept my 15k btu a/c as well, for future upgrades. (gave it to a family member)

    FOX Farm Products- Worth buying??

    I use all foxfarm products, grow journal in my sig. (except bloom boosters, but I do use molasses). Foxfarm grows some very nice pot. The 3 that are necessary are grow big, big bloom, and tiger bloom. Grow big for veg, tiger bloom for flower... start with 1 tsp per gal and work your way up...

    well.... 5w isn't much, you'd need a lot of those to grow one plant.

    Can I switch from chemical to organic nutes?

    Thanks man, I had a real hard time learning how to feed my plants and relied mostly on the nutes in my OF to get through my grows. I read a few things about CEC, PH, and EC but that's just one piece of a very intricate puzzle. ...feel like i'm stuck on training wheels but this is very helpful...

    Can I switch from chemical to organic nutes?

    OK, I was worried that chemical nutes would kill the microbes in my soil, inhibiting the chelation of organic nutrients. :leaf:

    Can I switch from chemical to organic nutes?

    LOL, I don't care about ingesting chemicals, I care about the microbes in the soil.

    Can I switch from chemical to organic nutes?

    Or did I just waste $20? I want to use a chemical nute for veg and switch back to organic for flowering, is that possible? What if I dose the shit out of the soil (recommended dosage) with big bloom during transition? using ffof + lime, grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom.... picked up...

    ph of runoff

    Good choice, I'm using ffof as well. You can adjust your ph by flushing with up/down. Start with a large reservoir and ph-adjust the water, then flush your soil with it till runoff ph is where you want it.

    FoxFarm Ocean Forest Soil draining too fast!

    I just watered my biggest girl, in 5 gal FFOF, and she took almost 2 gal before runoff.

    ph of runoff

    You should prepare your soil in advance so you don't have to deal with ph issues. It's not hydroponics, where the plants respond immediately to changes in the water. Plants grown in soil can take a few days to a week to respond to changes in your routine. The easiest and most common method of...
