So i have been thinking about this design myself alot latley and my only issue would be affording a ufo , do you think you could use cfls and have sucess?

Hey Blue,

There is no reason why you could not use it for cfl's, I have not worked with them before
A fridge offers you a basic air tight cabinet with 2 chambers usually, one fridge and one freezer
I have no utilized the freezer part since I am just turning over clones, now the model I was looking at originally had the freezer full of clones under 4 foot florescent tubes
The rest is up to you

yep its normal the plants are using up all the Nitrogen. if it starts on the bottom leaves and moves up its normal. i use the stuff called green stay works realy good my plants stay green the whole time. its made by supernatural brand nutes. its like $11.00 and use 1 tsp per gallon of water.

i love that stuff it will make ur plants the best green color every friends trips out how my plants are soo green. unfortaly i didnt use it the first week of my new grow and i alreay got some yellowing kinda. not that i used it this week their already greening up. trust me u will be most happy with this stuff. infact all of their nutes kick ass. and their auto PH bufferd so u never have to adjust ur PH agian.

So check this out, I am out and about getting chores done and I go by the hydro store
I want want you told me about, they have these little shot glasses that are marked to be used as a measuring cup for TSPN and other measurements that small, a new fan and that's it

So I ask the guy there about what you mentioned and he says what's wrong so I say my leaves are turning yellow 4 weeks into flowering
He starts talking about calcium deficiencies and all this other stuff and ends up try to sell me this stuff in # 1

I also asked for Nitro as well so I picked up #2

#3 Is the new water pipe I picked up a few weeks ago

#4 is new mags for some light reading

And that's it, weekends over back to work

And I never got my shot glass, damn

I mixed up both of those new nutes and fed the kids and gave the leaves a feeding via spray bottle

We will see how that stuff pans out stay tuned

Weekly update for 11/7/9

New fan, things started to smell more than usual, I do not think the 80 cfs fan was cutting it so I went back to the hydro store and picked up the next up fan

A 165 cfm in line fan, much quieter than the 80 which I disconnected altogether

And went to the depot later tonight to buy the 4 inch clamps to hold everything in place

Holding up the fan and filter is plumbers tape

So here are the shots of the kids, they are looking great still loosing a few leaves but nothing crazy, I will take it as normal learning experience since it is just the SSH loosing leaves the Rom looks great

Both are covered with crystals

Enjoy

Yes both main player are showing 5 and 4 big tops, I hope things stay on course

When do you think I should start flushing?

I was thinking another week or two at the earliest

how long are the flowering times on ur plants? i always fulsh when my tricomes are almost done, then a week befor i pull them i flush the crap out of them. they look like they need alot more time to me. i dont think ur even clone to being done with those girls, but its kinda hard saying from looking a pics only. the tricomes will tell you everthing.

TCurtiss · Nov 8, 2009

They started the 12/12 on Oct 1st

That's kind of what I thought, thanks man

bro i dont even belive ur close to being done. their just talking a long time to flower more some reason? but their should be a period where they go crazy and just start fatten up. get a 30x scope and check out the tricomes. but from the pics you have a while hairs havent turned yet.

project fuoro · Nov 8, 2009

I agree with Irish...

Wait it out man...Always wait if in doubt...
