So...

After 2 weeks of starving them, we returned to the foxfarms chart and added a full dose of grow big nutes to the res. We are trying to follow the chart the best we can, but we don't have any Tiger Bloom, so we have been supplementing B vitamins to hopefully fill in the blanks.

Have a look a the pics and tell us what you think...

Yeah.... not really cool with creating a paper trail. We would rather take a road trip and personally pay cash for the seeds!! Maybe we are too paranoid but cautious is the name of the game!!

Hey Cab your grow looks outstanding!! I'm so happy to hear you don't have to cut early!

Not sure if you've stopped by my cab build but I built enclosures for my res out of rigid foam insulation and aluminum tape and spray painted the inside black. That should help make your ice probes much more efficient.

I love the color of your ladies...real healthy! I only hope i get as good a result!! :)

peace

It's true, when I added insulation, my ice probe became twice as effective!

Heyas peeps!!

We scored a steal of a deal on a new Cabinet!! We figured that we need a place for our mothers...so when we came upon this deal we had to jump on it!! I'm going to post some new pics today with perhaps some pics of the Girls too!

We have finally finished transfering the time schedule, so I could get some pics after 8 pm tonight!

Have a great day!

Well here is the new Cabinet we bought for the mothers. Its 6 feet tall and over 4 feet wide!! And the best part about the whole thing....It was only 40 bucks!

Anyway we caulked the cabinet and painted it out. Cut 2 passive intakes in the bottom and installed an exhuast in the top.

Hope you enjoy!!

P.S. there are only 3 pics of the new mother cabinet (Last 3), the others are from the flowering chamber ( That's also a pic of our light rack, we love it :D)

Ok so apon further investigation, I have realized that we had a major PH fluctuation during the 2 week period that they only had flowering nutes. Since we have put back some of the nutrient solution the ph remains stable and so far(crossed fingers) we think they will still be ok! We will Change the res on Sunday and then we will be 4 weeks from harvest. Probably gonna be 2 weeks more nutes then hopefully 2 weeks just water and a bit of molasses!

Ill throw on a couple more pics for everyone> A Couple of my Favorites!!

Later

Thanks man,

We use regular tap water, ph 7.2 ppm 270 but treat it with a hard water treatment, take the chlorine and hard metals out, and ph it to about 5.8. Next grow we do we are gonna switch lines of products as well. Basically we are using 2 different lines together and i think that is part of the problem. I would love an RO system but just dont have the bucks.

Yup, trying to save money this time around too.

I happen to have the ro/di filter for my small saltwater tank. I am always making 5 gallons of 0ppm water so it isnt out of place for me to have clean water on hand for my grow op. I am in love with General hydroponics flora series. You can apply the "lucas formula" to the nutrients during flowering if you choose to.

Keep up the good work!

We are going to switch to the Advanced nutrients line simply because we can get it and it is the most supported in our area. They will also be launching an app. for their nute calculator soon, so that has me stoked! No more flipping back pages in the log to find out the measurements of all the stuff going into the res!
We decided to save the rest of the FF stuff and use it up on the mothers. They don't seem to mind!!
Anyway we will be doing another res change on Sunday and I should have some more pics.
