hey my bad. like I said I am a new grower.

Thanks much!

I just finished sexing my plants
there were only 2 males outta 6 plants so those aren't bad odds at all.
I killed the smallest male and a weaker fem and kept the 3 better ones.
I will clone some tomorrow.
ALSO replaced my wall rack with my PC stainless steel rack for better light support et..
here is a pic

The plants look good, you should put your lights closer your plant, i would also look into cfl's for better light coverage..unless those are t5s ....and, is that sand your growing in? but they look healthy..what are you feeding them?

i dont think hes growing them in full sand i think the sand is just on the top soil so the gnats dont lay eggs in his soil .....
they look good so far :0)
u should of kept that other fem u said u killed and cloned that one...

Yeah it's about a inch of sand over the soil, worked like a charm no need for any chems, Im a mild core health nut so I hates that crap.

I would rather clone the large female in the middle it is my best strain, I call it K1 Dro, I named the plant "Victoria" hehehehe, but I am going to clone 6 of her in the hrdo farm I have and move the 4 I already have there to a new setup.

Those top 4' lights are 40W T12 half 5850K and 3100k then there are mixed band smaller tubes 4200k, 3100k, 1 6400k 2' T12

Im going to add another 4' 2x T12 40W 3100K lights tomorrow would that work nice?? are CFLs really that much better than tubes? seriously?

Im going to go 4or600 w HPS on my next run.

Just working my way up the ladder.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I found the sand trick in here, I cant rememebr the thread or I would give credit.

Im soo blazed rite now. hey check these pics out...

they look pretty good .. i wouldnt call it k-1 dro, maybe just k-1 minus the dro, since its in soil and semi organic... call it k-1 orgy or sumthin

u need tp get a bunch of 6500k daylight color...26w or better
and get the 2700k warm red cfl's same w's...
the 6500k is for vegging and the 2700k is for flowering...
trust the cfl bulbs are great and really work well...
u could have them nice andd close to the plant like an inch away depending how hot and u do the hand test...u can place them alot better angles fo better light coverage/convienece or where u need it the most....and helps ur light bill alot better plus they are cheaper :0)

yeah I have some 6500K 4' tubes going also, Im going to build a wall behind the rack and put in some cfls I got another 4' T12 fixture and got 2 3000K lights in it going to put it on the front of the rack, will so pics when I get it dun Im way to stoned to fool around with a light and screw up a plant again.
I sold my living room funiture so I could get more shit to gro with. Actually going to find a new place and setup a house... ya kno and play around alot.
 
Dude I am curious of how you water the plants with the sand on top of the soil? Wouldn't the sand just turn straight to mud and fuck everything up?

Thats how I have always seen sand react to water so i am really curious of this.

Well it was a bit difficult. I was pretty baked to start with (I try to stay that way) I dug small trenches and slowly poured did spill a little but 3oz or less. it drained ok for sand and all.
It was hardest closer to the stem. But it works like a charm so no matter the mess it would have been worth it. now I can put a drip pan under because they are on a stainless rack.

ok here are 3 pics, they are of 2 different plants, 2nd week of flowering /12/12 just gave them a solution of neptues and a 3 part GH floragro floramicro and flora bloom all about half strength also pictured. I used neptues before at a little less than half and it seemd to to ok no problems.

I was thinking it's a "P" issue, whatcha think? Im going to get a soil test kit in just a bit..
