I start when the transition into flowering is visible meaning when flower clusters are visible,I have tried both foliar and in the res,and have noticed better results in the res but it is a little trickier to dial in than foliar method either way you will definitely see the difference just follow the directions and start with a lower dosage than recommended to be safe,It makes your plants uptake nutrients more efficiently so you got to lower your ppms

Great info man, i went out n bought the lil 8oz bottle today, and put in about 12mls into the 10 gallon tank. This combined with my co2 bottle refill, im expecting to see some heavy growth soon. The ppms were at 1000 to start with, so hopefully it doesn't give nute burn. Think i should add some more water to the mix?

If you start seeing some leaf burn then reduce your ppms by 30% I do think 1000 might be a tad on the high side.......just be careful...also I don't aerate my nute mix while using purple maxx,it specifically states that on the bottle....just in case you missed it.....:peace:

Purple Maxx is good stuff. Definitely not aerate it like someone said before. I have had a few strains turn purple after using it. I am unsure if I would credit the purple maxx or something else though.......... at my hydro store Purple Max went from $35 to $20 for the same sized bottle.

After the first night it seems to be okay not noticeable nute burn, but the ppms dont really seem to have dropped either, n yeah i've read numerous people saying not to aerate.

Im not actually using the PurpleMaxx, cuz im not lookin for purples, just some frosty goodness :) The trich's seem to be looking a bit more pronounced this morning

So overall, the plants are lookin splendid haha sorry i didnt get a picture up during light hours last night, so they will be up in several more hours. I found out today that using co2 in my current setup is a waste. I drained a complete 5lb co2 tank last night. which kinda pisses me of. @ 25 bucks a refill, there will be no more co2 for my grow until i turn it into the originally planned sealed box. I'm gonna be on the look out for a dual hose air conditioner, or i'll just wait it out for some IceBox's.

:peace:out.

let them dry out, that is key in resin production. Bone dry before every watering.......... Snowstorm Ultra is very good, I use that as well. And the price is right.

Finally the pictures are working again!

Bad news my powdery mildew is back again with a vengeance. Thought i had it kicked for the last 5 days...how much spraying of serenade needs to be put on these? I read once a week, but it seems like i may need to do it on every other lights out.

Other than that, im startin to see the first of the trichs go amber, and the buds are lookin frosty as hell.

Enjoy the pics.

Damn, powdery mildew...I was treating practically every day...I still lost about 1/2 oz of buds to rot. You will probably be spraying until the end. Good luck with it.

Arghhh i was afraid to hear it...

Does this sound bad on the plants?:

pull each net pot out while in the dark period,
take them into the bathroom to give em a compleeete spray of stems and leaves down with serenade.

wait for like 5 minutes and then do a spray of tap water...
and then let it dry dry back in the box?

I just dont think spraying the Serenade just over the top canopy in the box is going to help all that much...

...maybe i could clean out the box if i take all the plants too...might be worth it...

yes! Lol, I was looking for vertical growing supplies and I founf the walls for 140 or so a peice. I was stunned that such a cool thing for such a fair price is out there. I had some questions on how the reservoir holds out for the walls, I really cant see any. But I wam sure it works. I have a closet that I would like to nail these to the walls of and put a fourth on wheels or something. I am a small two tent grower but I would love so bad to sog, these seem perfect. Most vertical systems can be so easily duplicated but not these. Is your overall impression good. DOes the res hold well and your pump easily work the system? I have read your grow before but for a month so maybe I outa reread. Cool, gl.

Oh yeah where'd you find em for 140? Im going to order another 2 after these babies are done.

If that didn't answer your question, it seems to work great, my 500 gph gives plenty of pressure for the three of them. they work great, however i'm also noticing because they started at different sizes, some of them have really encroached on others. Im not sure if this is a sign of not enough space, or if having more uniform cuttings is a plus. I would def say though, do yourself a favor and give yourself extra space for these guys, i'm finding that although 60 is a doable number on 3 of these, I may want to go a little bit less next time and give the buds some breathin room.
