Diesel Ryder 250w CFL Grow
- Thread starter harth234
- Start date
i switched to an hps but yeah i use to
Secret Outdoor DR
So this is the 5th diesel that you guys might have been wondering about. You can see it early in my grow but then it just disappears. I put it outside because when i was running cfls because i didnt have enough space and it was growing way slower than the others. Now that i have an Hps i could bring it inside but its a 9" taller than the others and it got eaten a little so i jsut dont want it to mess with my indoor crop, plus im kinda curious to see the outdoor/indoor results.
Anyway it is just as old as the others but it rained a lot during its first four weeks and was a lot smaller than my indoors. Then it just shot up and started to flower. I hope it didn't lose its auto-flowering flower time.
I really want to give it nutes but im scared it will get burned like my indoor platns.
So im bored and i dont have any news with my plants untill my ph tester comes so heres some pics of the secrete diesel rider.
These buggers try to flower everywhere lol

it is...loaded with goodies for your plants...but be carefull with it on the outdoor plant...molasses tends to attract bugs and animals...dont foliar spray with it either...it clogs up the leafs pores that takes in the water and nutes

hmmm..well ive never grown outdoors..so have not had to do this..but id think it getting a shot of the hps for the remaining week might make the buds grow dramaticly.

That makes absolutely no sense, there is no way any 400 HPS is going to give better results than the sun. I think you should just leave it outside Harth, no point in messing with it now. Also no sense in risking bringing bugs inside your grow area.
that does seem true but then again id be 18hrs of direct 400w hps vs 3hrs of direct sunlight + shitty cloud cover for the rest of the day.
ill keep it outside for the sake of bugs

Hell yea, I bet you can't wait to smoke it!
haha seriously dude i cant wait, they reeked up my entire house and it makes me wanna smoke it so bad.
Im prob going to cut off one of the baby buds that grew an inch from the soil to test it.
Ive been looking at my plants and i realized that these autos arent as stable as I thought.
I figured Joint Doctor seeds would all be stable rather than some of the short riders ive but thats not the case.
2 of my plants look like they have 2-3 weeks, 2 look like they need 4-5, and then my outdoor one needs like 6.

I just looked at my outdoor plant and it's fan leaves and some lower growth look less green.
Is this because the soil isnt providing the plant with enough nutrients?
If so ill give it some tigerbloom but like 1/4tsp per gallon and try not to burn it like my indoor ones.
What do you guys think....? I'll throw a picture up in a little.

You can definitely give it nutes, part of the reason it starts to yellow in flower is because most people do not use nitrogen during flowering, or not very much, and the plant sucks all the nitrogen from the lower leaves first .

Dont give it tiger bloom man seriously, that thing looks like it only needs nitrogen, everything else looks just fine to me.

in im opinion id say try the tiger bloom out..its gonna help those buds swell up.and the yellowing of the leaves is a natural process that it goes through during flowering.it does take the nitrogen and sugars from the bottom of the plant..remember..bottom of the plant.which is more important..the buds or the leaves at the bottom.theres a reason why bloom nutes have low if no nitrogen at all.in the final stages of the plant its not needed as much.let the plant take from it what it needs...as for the nute burn...just feed it a 1/4 strength less this time.never start bloom nutes at full strength
