Not with any intention of being a jerk but, you’re going to burn the house down.


Too many connections, too much plastic and all surrounded by electricity and water – God help you.

what are you talking about.... have you seen other peoples?

I dont see much of an issue.. .anyone else?

Just in case that was spider mites I got this





I sprayed every and underneath the leaves. Hopefully they go away.. I think I saw a cupple scurry away when I sprayed, or maybe it wasnt. Got a humidifier for the room as well. :)

It wouldnt be a nit deficiency, the pod carries enough nutes for the first few weeks. I would say it would be a heat issue or you are drowning the roots and not letting enough oxygen in. Let the soil dry out before you water. Also youre not feeding them yet are you?

I don't like the trashcan. I will be making a new thing. Just a spot like a armoire or something. I have the temp stabilized at around 74-80F and humidity 52-60percent. I cut some of the leaves that had turned yellow and have been spraying for the spider mites. Things seem to be coming around.

nutriant problem there m8ty, or the roots are being starved of oxygen...try changing the pots...breaking the soil up around the roots.....maybe bigger pots aswell....and also...1 125w envirolite wud have been more effient...considering u get a blue and red bulb...and theres less heat generated...

either way nice set-up...and good luck :)

wow. You were so right .. I Think... I think they will get way better now! I replanted with
NK Lawn & Garden Starting Mix , I read through the bags ingredients which only included:sphagnum peat, horticultural vermiculite, perlite, wetting agent, lime for ph balance.

sooooo light. should get oxygen there. I think I need to water even less. my mix was very hard and wet. or was this just a nature of the mix I was using? how many seconds should I Water every 3 days?

I think this soil change will keep spider mites away too if they were in the soil still from before. and the inside of the place got cleaned

Spider Mites. Eliminated. Cut some of the dying leaves off. I wait until they are about 40 percent dead to cut them off at an angle. 4rth night of flowering. Keeping stretching to a minimum. I have been spraying them as well throughout the day. I would upload pics but they are sleeping so expect some in the morning. I still have 9 alive. I cleaned the box before they went to bed. I also move them around a lot. I try to expose different parts of the plant more based on "observations." If one is leaning into the light then I simply turn the cup around forcing the underside to get light and it will eventually, I suppose, come back to the light.. not that I look at them that long or anything.. What to do about smell.... what to do ..



Anyone have suggestions for smell?


Also I am pretty sure I will be using a combination of LST and the lollipop method.

hey im here, thought i was already subbed, guess not, but now i am, LoL. cant help you with the smell, i dont have to worry about that, but some use ona gel or get a carbon filter system. one thing though, dont count this time as flowering, you are just on 12/12 now to make them start flowering. start counting flowering weeks when they show sex or pistals on the females. males tend to show sex first on most strains.
