Thank you very much, Highly appreciated

here is before and after shots 5 days in between the two pics of the top of the vanilla kush

nice looking my friend. very nice.

Move the light up about 1ft today, the lemon skunk was up to the same height as the light and the rest of the plants only a foot or so away

thanks for the reminder. i have to go raise mine tonight.

LS up to the light again also one Sweet tooth is top heavy and tipped had to tie it up. Took a lot of clones....The one ST with all the burns I am worried about it lost some fan leaves, beginning flush.

we always same to be on the same page. i just took a bunch of cutting and have yellowing problem lol

the one st with the burns (pictured on the right) might be rootbound pretty sure, lots of roots coming thru bottom the whole thing is thick rootball I believe, should i transplant or is to late..that is her on the right see all the necrosis in middle aged leaves, I have flushed her...The necrosis is not spreading however it is a substantial amount of foilage that is dead and dieing. This plants buds are much bigger then the others it seems like she is trying to hurry up and finish her cycle maybe because of her poor condition?


I attribute much of her problems to the poor soil mixture I used for her and one of the other sweet tooth very thick muddy mg organic soil mixed with pearlite and dolomite lime pebbles which I did not crush.

Also I potted one of the sativex clones yesterday she had a huge rootball

There's an abundance of metal halide lamps for sail for like 30 dollars on craigslist. These are the 400 watt lights with bulbs included. Just so you guys know.

that tip is very much appreciated brotha, I am looking at possibly 400W MH for a mother/clone tent

Soon I will be adding some DWC 5 gal buckets stay tuned for my venture in to hydroponics!

And we have multiple 600W HPS LIGHTS TO COME IN THE FUTURE - Along with some t5 fixtures. We are even considering doing 5 or 6 vertical 600W HPS without a cooltube this winter as our primary method for heat production in these cold michigan winters!

Many plans in store and cabinets to build/plumbing to do..... we will soon be legal for many more plants but we are going to stay well below our limit

Thank you all for all your great insight, advice, and help with my grow and I really appreciate everything you have done for my RIU!

what would you guys say if I planted the sickly ST into a 45 gallon Rubbermaid and filled it with fox farm ocean forest, would it be worth it? 20$ worth of soil and nutrients

45 gallons? Indoor or out? I would never run over 10gal pots indoor, just not necessary with space & time... Outdoor, well 200gal+ pots are amazing.

i used a 12.5 gallon once and i was extremely happy with the results. if you have room then try it out.

also i have two of those lights ill trade em both for like 50 bucks or an eighth. get at me.

I went and got two of those MH lights from Craig's List. They were each and the same would cost about 200 or more new. There's some law requiring some schools to remove all MH lights. There's going to be a lot on the market cheap so keep your eyes open.

they work great too but i had no need for mh anymore.

Appreciate the offer but I dont think I wanna go with any of those I am trying to only get digital to conserve power.

Anway so I got a clone dome & tray for my clones now so I can keep a good humidity. I also got bigbloom so I now have the whole fox farms lineup, my plants seem to be either nute burnt or hurting for nutes, I just gave em plain water PH'd yesterday so I am going to wait a few days and hit em with the big bloom and grow big and then I will be feeding with that GrowBIG+BIGBLOOM untill week 4 I will switch the bigbloom back to tigerbloom and week 6 I am thinking beastie bloomz+bigbloom and then week 7 big bloom for the grand finale.


So the plants look kind of wreck from the last pics although they do have bigger buds and lots of them the buds havent really got very big on the badseed, 2 sweet tooth, and the lemon skunk.

Anyway - I am not all green and pretty anymore on the middle and lower leaves we have two sweet tooth that have yellowing and some brown spots...on one a fan leaf pretty much yellowed up and died off in a mere 72 hours or so this plant also fel over its top heavy so I have the main stem now tied to the pot, it still fell over again the next night so I re-tied it and no problem so far but I am thinking I need to tie the top to the ceiling or something and not just the base.

The other sweet tooth as you all know has the necrosis on the middle leaves and now some additional yellowing on some bottom leaves.

The vanilla kush has some big sized nugs 25 nugs or so about the size of quarters, however some of its older fan leaves are also suffering necrosis now

The lemon skunks is over 6ft tall now perhaps I should tie it down... I am not happy I keep having to raise the light for it and considering getting it its own light or something it is ridiculous, perhaps I shall put it outside. The light gets further and further away from the main canopy of the others plants which are for the most part exactly the same height.

We are likely to make stands for the other plants and put the light all the way up at the celing so we can make the canopy more even or tie down the lemon skunk.


I am sure this heat is not helping me its really bad temps for last week have been 75F-90F ...PEAK HIGH 93..Peak low 70...We had one full day of 75 but 80-85 has been the norm.

Looking good. I'm only a little over a week behind you.

Here is a link to a DIY DWC system that I'm going to play build and play around with.

Also, check out thcfarmer forums. There is a DWC system with passive nutrient return that is spectacular.
