Well, anyone with a light meter can tell you that lumens can diminish at a certain distance. I recently read in a magazine, a guy who owns a grow store that tells everyone to "tale their light as high as it will go, and leave it there". He said then they will tell him, "that's like 5 feet...

There ya go.

As far as epsom-- magnesium is a really important part of the chlorophyll molecule, so its definitely important in growth, but again at that size it seems like even slightly hard/not even quite hard tap water should have enough magnesium to sustain it. Are you giving nutrients? What kind...

Yeah, who knows man. Im technically on my third grow (I guess, my second big harvest is in flower but I had a plant ran solo in between the first and second run, plus I have aeroponics going that I started a month ago.). Any who, my first grow (and veg of my second) I seemed to have suuuuch...

The lumens diminish quickly as the distance from a cfm increases. I would try getting your supplemental light (the CFLs) a little closer to the sides if you can. Also, the plant looks very healthy, you should wind up with some nice quality bud. The size and density of your buds is going to...

You just need to be careful; you can go over board. My cousin was afraid to top his plant, so I fimmed it for him. It was already at like the 12th node, so it had tons of branches underneath. It got 6 or 7 tops from the fim, and once he saw how easy it was he started going top/fim crazy. He...

Wanted to chime in about my experience-- my og kush went through the WORST light stress. I had to use the timer for a place where no one was staying, and instead of sacrificing 6 whole dollars to get another one, I just did it manually for a week. The result was a horrible light schedule. In...

I use it. Running the 3 part kind line, as well as the liquid karma, vitamino, silica blast, and aqua shield. Hoping for good results, the guy at thegrow srore told me to pick up thevitamino. I noticed it was one of the more expensive ones. Still not sure what in the hell it does, other than...

That's hso's blue dream that I'm running (to the far left in my pic.. I think I posted it in this thread anyways) and it outgrew the other 3 strains I have going with it. Plus their blue dream is supposed to be a heavy yielder, which it probably wouldn't be considered if it was a slow grower...

Love master kush!! Way to go man, way to recover those plants. You look like you'll have quite the harvest. I'll bet that smoke is gonna be awesome. + rep for hanging in there and taking care of business.

And btw, I can't think of any links or anything right off hand, but I'll see what I can find. I'm like you, I read up every chance I get. Spent my first 5 months with my nose in info all day long, and it's definitely paid off. I just cropped an og, and I won't know till it's dry but I should...

Man honestly, I just switched my grow room a few weeks ago, bit in the old one I had an air conditioner in the window for the summer months. Now that its colder, I haven't been using the air conditioner and I haven't had any problems with res temp. The water bottle method is ghetto, but it...

Jeez, I never realize how high I am until I go back and read my posts lol. I hope that made sense. Anyways, something else I was thinking, and this might only be an aeroponic thing, but it really helps to watch the water level, and know if/when/how much its going down. It doesn't matter if...

I'll chime in-- I'm doing aeroponic, but my system is basically just a res with a square tube coming out of it. There is a fountain pump that pumps the water/feed up a line, and the line goes up the tube and has sprayers at each site. I'll go ahead and tell you (bc I am dealing with this...

Haven't read everything, but fwiw I used to always find eater droplets and wonder where n the hell they came from. Turns out, plants breath like us and they also SWEAT like us. As the plant absorbs water through the roots, its also putting it out at its leaves. Not sure how much water youre...

Yeah, if you go with smart pots (I HIGHLY recommend for soil grows, the root mass they help form is just perfect and amazing lol) then 3 gallons would definitely be enough. And honestly, vegging at 4 weeks you would probably be fine with 3 gallons anyways, especially if its your first grow and...

It basically just depends on how big your plants get (which wrectly affect yield). l have 4 white lavender clones in flower right now (like 5 days in flower) in 7 gallon smart pots. Let me start from the beginning it'll be easier to explain. I took the clones and planted them in four 1 gallon...

Hah, yeah there you go. Only in growing weed is it a good idea to "practice on the males" lol. That is, unless of course you have females around ;). I've never smoked the males, but I had a redneck friend who would smoke the shit out of that pollen, lol. But yeah man, you'll come to learn...

PH being off can be one of THE LEADING reasons for slow growth. Nutrient lockout occurs, and the plants can't use them to grow. But a piece of advice from my experience--if you're going Hempy/soiless, I think you're supposed to feed every day. I had a plant that I ran Hempy style (for a...

I'll throw in my two cents: my recently cropped og kush had something kind of similar happen-- the bottom branches (more like little twigs, I should've lollipopped her a little higher) were co pletely shaded bc the top of the plant was so bushy. It developed pistils at the same time all over...
