Not even...
I just left them outside unattended and gave them water.
Did I do something wrong?

In one of my apts I have a 12x13 (I think lol) flower and another to dry and rotate crops. The 2 rooms are connected through a knocked out closet then both are open to my living room. The airflow is beautiful. On the 2nd floor off my balcony and windows open.. Ah glorious

I just want to thank uncle Ben and riddle for actually giving good advice, even though half of you haters can't understand what they want to convey. Making a plant tick isn't that bad of advice, most of the questions answered by him are dumb questions anyway. If you can't make your plant tick, you can't give your chick an orgasm. It's the same concept, every plant and every female are different, what makes them happy may be different for every plant/female.

Maybe I'm getting this all wrong but to me the message they (well more so UB) is the fact that plants are plants and all have the same basic needs. Using a women in that context is just wrong imo lol. Every women I have met has vastly different needs and totally unpredictable to boot lol. Again maybe I'm wrong and that may explain the loss of a couple of houses to marriage disasters lol.

Didnt want to highjack the other thread RM so thought I'd ask here re sulphur. My nutes contain ,67% sulpher so not much. I do add epsom by foiler in veg and to the res in flower. I did this more for a mag deficiency due to water makeup. Not sure if you'll be able to answer this but I add appr. Two tablespoons to 100 litres, this seems to cure the mag issue but would it be enough sulpher?

That is approx. the same as how much epsom I use give or take a gallon, so I would not up it. Everything I use has sulfur in it even my medium (calcined clay) sounds like you're in hydro? there are different products being tested by others, I'll post that info once they figure it out

Back in the day I studied this light spectrum thingie to death. While posting stuff from the U. of Miss. MJ Research studies I found one oldie that has a spectral analysis (distribution) of various fluors:
And then before cannabis growers had even heard of a 600W HPS (much less tried them) I got spectral analysis of the new 600W. Osram was the first to release it. Here's where the rub comes in - the so called "enhanced" lamp had the exact same spectral analysis as the regular 600W HPS! But like everything cannabis, you paid more for it based on customer's dreams which drives marketing hype.
Having said that, I grew plants from start to finish under a 600W HPS for a while and came to the conclusion that this lighting side show of the cannabis industry was more bullshit. The plant just doesn't care. If you notice a HPS has blues. My plants did very well under it.
In case you didn't notice the above graph has a very good distribution where it counts, blues and reds. The spike around 550 is in the noise level when it comes to PAR and relative performance.

Calcined Clay also know as Hydrotron (little clay balls) slow releases sulfur much the same way Dolomite releases Mag. I use kitty litter made out of it, you can also use Turface but it cost more

Yea I worded it wrong should've said satisfied instead of happy. Keeping a woman happy is another story which is ten times harder than growing mj.

Rid, a couple questions on increasing sulfur. In the absence of any defficency, particularly mag, what would be a good way to increase the amount of sulfur besides using Epsom salts which increase mag? On the kitty litter matter, are you talking about regular clay litter? The kitty litter I have only says premium clay litter and does not have an ingredient list to see if it's a specific type of clay. When I do get the right type of litter how would you recommend I use it?
Thanks RM, i respect and appreciate your knowledge and advice.

I use,,,,,
Jack's Citrus FeED 20-10-20 has 4.9% sulfur
Jack's Aquagold Finisher 7-15-30 has 9% sulfur
Gypsum for Cal, it is Calcium Sulfate 18% sulfur
Epsom for Mag it is Magnesium Sulfate 13% sulfur
and Potassium Sulfate 0-0-50 has 18% sulfur
There are no worries with toxicity when using sulfates
I use the Wal Mart Special Kitty Unscented Clay Litter Blue & Red bag 25 lbs for $3 simply rinse it off (is very dusty) and mix it with peat 50/50
