beginning bubbleponic problems

im in my 4th week going on 5th this sat for 3 of them and 1 was put in on a sunday.. should i switch to flower now to prevent any more veg growth and just go ahead and start getting the bloom growth??

please let me know what you think.

I would switch to flower now. I usually switch at the end of the 4th week. But I also have switched earlier depending on plant growth. The way yours looks, I would switch. Do a res change, add your flower chems, and keep chugging along.

im going to switch light cycle tom night at 7 - 7 but i was going to keep the veg nutes in until saturday night then flush and do bloom nutes.. you think i should flush tom when i switch light cycle?

i snapped a few pix tonight.. im going to get a new digi soon.. my old one needs an sd card and i rather just get a new cam. so the phone cam will work for now until buds start to appear then i need a good digi..

i think since im not having a beginner bubbleponic problems anymore im going to start a new thread tom when i switch light cycle. but then again i might not.

Crack...They look great man!!! You would be ok by waiting until Saturday to do a res change. Go ahead and switch those lights like you said, get them used to that, and by Saturday a water and nute change will get them heading in the right direct...Can you snap a picture of the root mass?? Would love to see that!!

thanks man.. yeah i will get a pic of those sometime today.. the roots are crazy and pure white!! got timer set to go off tonight to start 12/12.

i hope my flower goes smoother than the beginning i was having. but i didnt have all the right gadgets then either.

yeah flower will go easier for you. You have reached the top of the hill, now you are on your descent...look forward to seeing the pics.

here are some pix of the roots.

ROOT PORN!!! Very nice!

thanks lt!!

going to start bloom nutes today and do a res flush.. im having problems with the net cups wanting to tip over once i put the water back in and the roots float how can i prevent this??

also roots are starting to get a lil brownish.. think that is normal or just time for a res change??

added 2 cfls had 3 but one bulb was a dud.

any advice would be good.

did a complete res change have full bloom nutes in there.. in about to weeks im going to aggressive bloom nutes. la woman already has her female parts showing. all are feminized but lemon skunk and i cant tell if its gona be female or male yet.. im praying female!! it looks like the part the pistol shoots out and not a sack but still too hard to tell.

other than that plants look healthy some leaves but not many are funky but i figure that comes with it.

will post some pix in a bit.

Gorgeous absolutely gorgeous. For future reference try going with 3 gallon buckets next time i started with a large tub like yours with 2 different strains and i had nutrient issues with the different plants (2 plants didnt want as much and the other 2 wanted much more) and i also got screwed because i ordered autoflowering seeds and i ended up getting half autos and half regular by mistake so it really screwed my first grow, but your grow is gorgeous like i said keep it going and keep the pics coming. Scribed.

yeah and i noticed now that the plants are big the net cups wobble around and the plants want to come out when i put them back in from a res change cuz the roots just float for a bit. so i was thinking bout bigger net cups and the 3 or 5 gal buckets.

thanks for commenting and following.

INteresting thread crackadelic Subscribed to this one. One tip, try not to let it consume you too much, better to relax and enjoy the grow, you are doing fine Looking forward to the next pics.

Good luck.

yeah at first i didnt have the ph or ppm meter and ever since i got that and figured how much nutes to add and of each. things have gone alot smoother and im having fun with it now. lol i am very impatient and am real excited now that im in flowering stage and each day is going so slow compared to the veg stage where 5 weeks flew by!

if i could change the thread title somehow i would cuz i know alot of people see this and dont want to see a whole grow just problems in the beginning. but i dont want to start a whole new one ive had this started basically since the start of grow.

glad everyone on here gives good input and follows along cuz it has helped me alot. ive taken very few advice from my good friend who grows but he also does soil and this website and the people on it are who have led me to hopefully being my first success. harvest is going to be tricky i think. when i was younger a couple buddies of mine and me stole this plant we knew about.. i knew to just hang the plant upside down and let thc drip from stems down into buds. so i put it in a dark closet hung it for about 3 weeks on nails.. last batch of that was perfect smell. crystals. the whole nine yards.. now im reading i have to do jars open close open close.. so now im scared im going to fuck the cure up. but its trial and error right.

i will add pix tonight.. just been lazy.

curring is very simple. when buds are completely dried put them in the jars and burp the jars a few times a day for about 5-15 minutes or u could leave it open for about an hour or so whenever u have the time. after 1 week u notice a HUGE difference, but 2 weeks to a month cure time is perfect IMO. As long as they are getting burped regularly u wont have any problems.

aight that sounds simple enough!! hopefully i get a decent yeild so i can have alot of good jars of bud to look at!

i noticed hairs shooting out of la woman the first night of flowering they were nice white long then i look at them yesterday and they look to be dried up but not completely.. what could be the cause of that.. still cant tell the others but 2 of the 3 are feminized so i hope they turn out to be that which they should.. but the little parts look like the one on la woman where the pistols shot out so im thinking i got all females! we shall see though. couple more days.

let me know what you think is going on with the pistols.

here are some pix as of today.

Looking good!
