during flower (usually around wk 5 for me) plants stop using as much nitrogen(which has low ph) and begin using much more potassium(which has high ph). this causes ph to stabilize and then decline, in my experience. also, a plants nutrient needs generally peak out during weeks 4 through 6(depending on strain) then begin to taper back down.

Cool, that explains the PH difference. Thanks.

i actually change my npk ratio at around wk 3 1/2 -4 to help meet the plants needs during this transition.

I am following my H&G feeding schedule at a reduced strength. I think they have accounted for the change in nutrient needs and I have been adding more PK this week and next week comes Shooting Powder, which is the high PK finisher.

take ur t5 and mount it on a wall about midway up ur plant facing sidwaysrope will even work.. it will hook up the rest of the plant with lighting. lower leaves wil stop dying off and yellowing plus it wont twist all ur buds op from having light coming up thru the plant. i have a nice 150 hps i use for side lighting. it works pretty sweet for the plants above 3 ft tall. just have to rotate them about a quarter turn every day or so.

Yeah, I was watching for them to start to 'turning around'. I'm going to have to setup something on the side as I can't exactly put it on the wall in the room. Thanks.

I am pretty stoned too, not as stoned as you but this Sour Grape with Sour Double Hash on top has me pretty good. I wanna smoke some scissor hash!!! Soon enough I will have my very own scissor hash and then who will be jealous and who will be ballin?!? :fire:

That's great news! I am interested in seeing how your SCRoG goes. When do you plan on starting? And I forgot, what strain are you gonna do? Cuz I am gonna want some!

i would like to start it in the next 7 days. just waiting for the cuttings to root in the bubble cloner. :) they are Early Skunk x with Jack Herer i believe. really really fabulous. a buddy grew them out a while ago and it came out pretty good. definitely a good candidate for a scrog.

Nice combination, I love Skunk and Herer so they should be pretty good together.

Damn, that's pretty good yield. Nah I don't think I will get close to that in one plant but we will see what my total harvest does with 4 plants in a 5x5. How big was that one plant? How much room did it take up, a whole 5x5?

Uhh, do you guys even do feet, or do you go by meters and centimeters down there?

Nice! I flipped on the 11th so I think your a bit ahead of me,
Click to expand...
11th? tomorrow? Fuck man, that's pretty neat, how did you do that? :dunce:

Yeah I think I am like 3 or 4 days ahead of you but they are probably different strains so different harvest times. It's not a competition, at least not between me and you. It's definitely a competition between me and my wallet. I am winning!


Or losing, I can't decide ...

No I wasn't challangeing you to a duel or anything of the sort, just nice to follow along (plus I see you guys still measure in inches). this thread has been a fun read, it has a nice vibe. How have you managed to keep the trolls out?

Ya, that wallet thing. I keep answering the question of "how many fucking lights do you need?" with "One more"

currently burning 4-1ks and 1 600. will be adding 2 more 600's into the mix for a few weeks soon.
