Oxy and hydro... Ah, I remember those being able to get me high at one point in time. Then it just got to be too much after I lost my insurance, so I switched to heroin. Spent a lot of my time on that shit, herniated discs, and MS. I'd rather take the pain then have to come off that shit again. Word of advice, if you don't need the shit, don't take it. That shit will consume your entire life. Considering I've stuck so many opioids in my arm, oxycontin is very similiar to heroin, except heroin is a million times cheaper. I just see to many of my friends going down that same path, and the think it is safer than heroin because it's made in a lab. It's not, the withdrawal from it is a million times more intense than dope withdrawal. Sorry to preach, but just take my word for it

yea man-thanx 4 keeping me updated on your grow.i say, that when the pre flowering has started, mix your vegge nutes to litlle of your new bloom nutes, cas plants like when they get first 2 weeks, when the pre flowering has started to also get theyr old vegge nutes, mixed in with some bloom nutes, what you will be gradually increasing on every feed.when 2 weeks have passed, then you go straight to your full mix bloom nutes.


keep it real man, and keep that shit growing, ya hear......

Why not just get the 42 watt cfl's. They produce about double the lumens as your 27 watt soft whites. Good looking grow though. How old are they now?

coming along nice bro... nutes are good... as was said gradually increase the amount you use.. although with plants as small as them you may not want to go full strength just to be safe.. its easier to fix a deficiency than nute burn... and if you can get some more light in there, as was said, you will be much happier... but otherwise you are on the right path.. keep it up!

u think if i replaced all the 27 watt ones with 42 watt ones it will be good enough for the flowering stage?, and idk reminber how old they are, like a week or two before this thread was started, and the clones came off a 2 to 4 month old mother plants

looking good ... if u want to increase the size of ur stems ,which means bigger budds u should get sum egg shell and crussh them and add to the top of ur soil. i do this tru the whole grow and
b carefull with the nutes just remember that the first five weeks of flowering with most strains are for flower development and the folowing 3 to 8 weeks depending on genetics are for thc production , so i guess or sugest that you work on ur soil lil by lil with the egg shells u would add calcium and vitamins to ur plant and the nute solution you are usin is similar to mine earth juice bloom that has npk values of 6-14-8 so i add no more nitrogen cus the solution has a fair amount to it. hope u dont get inpatient and add to much nutes or water too... they look good just make a schedual for the feedings and flush with a gollon of h2o once per week and after 30 days u would notice the diff ... what ur lights waats cfl u should be fine with 6( 26 )watts 2700k cfls for those plants 42 watts take more room and its better to soround ur plants with smaller watts bulbs then to have a few strong ones on top . check tis out with this set up i manege to poll close to a q pound in three months from five plants and spending less then 300 coins on the prosses. i allso mix the light with a few 6500k to just help a bit. iam high and shit so iam just trying to say that just keep it simple master one thing at a time and u would see results hope your grow goes well . are u considering lst it could be aplaid at any point of the grow. goood luck

the MORE lumens, the tigher bigger buds you get.

Lowes and Home Depot have 65 and 68 watt CFLs for $16.95, 2700 K, excellent for Flowering.
