    FFOF & OG Kush Grow Questions

    I didn't know if it was better to start a new post or just add to my old one so forgive my ignorance but.......I've never posted near harvest picks or updates after you all have been so kind to respond to my questions so here goes. I went ahead with the fox farm trio and added perlite with some...

    Lighting Question

    Thanks. So the T12 is better than the 150W for right now? I would've assumed the "stronger" light to be better although maybe not the ideal spectrum. As soon as I get the tent they'll see the MH. I've just never vegged under a T12 longer than 2 weeks so I was getting nervous due to my piss...

    Lighting Question

    I am right in assuming the shoplights aren't good at this point right? I understand the need for blue light...but if I'm hurting the seedlings please let me know, I'm 2 days in on the 150W.

    Lighting Question

    Not sure on the setup, I was going to go for a package deal to get everything. Whatever fans came with it...I just wanted to give them dedicated circulation which I haven't done since I've started. Fan in the room but nothing else. I've been using 2-3 gallon pots due to space. 9 under a...

    Lighting Question

    Thanks for that. I'm not using anything right now. About to start using bio-root from Hydroponics but I'm nutrient phobic right now. I've burned my last two grows based on talking to you guys, so this time I'm going to let them tell me what they want...I was planning on adding cal mag to...

    Lighting Question

    I don't dispute that at all, but I'm under the assumption that the two 40W T12's I'm using aren't better than the 150HPS in terms of supporting plant growth. Is that a safe assumption? I'm about 3 weeks in from seed, my thought process was to keep them on the HPS for a week until the tent...

    Lighting Question

    Thanks all. I think I'm going to use my 400's for veg and get a 600 setup for flower. I decided to use my 150 for the seedlings in the interim and they seem to be doing fine...hopefully this gives me a little time to get the tent setup.

    A larger tent for flower and smaller for veg....I should clarify. I'm trying to run a perpetual....

    Lighting Question

    Thanks for the reply. To this point I've only done closet grows. While the temps were controllable I feel my yield would've been better if I had a more controlled environment with dedicated air intake and exhaust. Also the significant other is tired of me hoarding the room. I'm really...

    Lighting Question

    Hi all. In process of buying a tent but I want to ensure the right light mix. Currently working with (1) 150 HPS, (1) 400w MH and (1) 400 HPS...I'm wanting to upgrade to 600w but I don't want to waste what I have. Any ideas on a small tent setup using this many smaller lights? Or should I...

    FFOF & OG Kush Grow Questions

    OK. So now you have me concerned about the FF trio:) Why did you ditch it and can I ask how much/often your feeding the Jack's Classic?

    FFOF & OG Kush Grow Questions

    Thank you. Bear with me...so the perlite drains the moisture better? Would mixing it with OF not assist in draining excess nutrients in the soil?

    FFOF & OG Kush Grow Questions

    Funny you say that because I got gnats from my last bag of happy frog...What was the problem with the OF if you don't mind me asking? I'm concerned about using just the happy frog with fox farm nutes but I see now that I was overfeeding and fed to early. I was hoping the OF would give me a way...

    FFOF & OG Kush Grow Questions

    Thanks for the response. If you don't mind answering a few more. 1. Did you have to flush? 2. What did you use for the P feeding? 3. You only used it twice? If that's the case I know I overdid it on my previous grows. 4. So is the OF better as a standalone? No need to mix (perlite, e.t.c)?

    FFOF & OG Kush Grow Questions

    Hi All...On the verge of a fresh beginning and I had a question regarding Fox Farm Ocean Forest. A friend of mine states they've been able to sustain a plant on the soil only (no other nutrients) through harvest and I'm wondering if anyone else has had the same experience. I've had...

    Harvest Assumptions

    That's what I'm torn about. I'm looking at the stalk and the buds themselves. Seem to be ok although the leaves close to them are dying...especially on #3 (indica). The sativa's not as much as of yet. They seem to be sprouting new bud which is weird at this point but the light was supposed...

    Harvest Assumptions

    Yeah, I was thinking it was more of a combination of things. My environment leaves a lot to be desired but had no nute issues until my 3rd run so I'm learning as I go. They look like they have at least a week left but the dead leaf matter was concerning me. As long as the plants keep goin'...

    Harvest Assumptions

    Also is the quality of harvest more dependent on the strain or the dominant type of trichome (clear, cloudy, e.t.c). Meaning if I have a lower quality strain...waiting for amber doesn't necessarily mean the quality is any better correct?

    Harvest Assumptions

    Thanks for that. That's really my question. Based on the plants feasting on themselves and the combination of milky to clear trichomes do I harvest now or do I wait for the amber at the risk of the plant consuming itself (if possible). I don't mind the wait but if it's going to risk what I get...

    Harvest Assumptions

    Well I think I'm finally here...I think. Wanted to get you all's input just for peace of mind when I make my final decision. I understand no sole piece of advice will be the end all be all but I'd really like some experienced grow input so I'll have an idea of what to change next time. Where...
