Ok hermi was cloned and pulled from the batch.All the rest are now showing hairs and have flat took off since I put them into that ocean forest soil.They grew almost 6 inches in one.They be likin that shit thats fer sure.
I took clones off a few plants and they're now on day 2 and looking fine.Pre-soaked rockwool cube in pre-soaked cups of soil. I then hit them with wilt spray and put them under the dome.Had 1 wilt a touch but stood back up in about a hour.None of the others wilted at all and all are looking fine.Time shall tell,time shall tell.


Was gonna keep the dome off like dirtbag does but the r/h wouldn't go above 47% so I put the dome on them and the r/h is now at 81%.temps steady at 80 degrees with the waterbed heater.That worked pretty good so far and glad I didn't have to buy something else.Just set the temp and yer done,,,nice.

Can the ecotechnics evolution digital temperature controller control a humidifer by turning it off and on, it says it can control the humidity, but iv heard they do this just by regulating the fan speed therefore no option to wire a humidifier into it. is this right


Heres the specs

ENVIRONMENT: New Mark 3 Evolution Digital Temperature Controller


Ø Dynamically adjusts fan speed with precise increments to control temperature accurately

Ø Intelligently responds to temperature changes

Ø Controlls humidity as well as temperature

Ø Works in conjunction with the Ecotechnics Unis CO2 controller

Ø Able to control up to 3kW of heating

Ø Both idle speed and maximum speed are fully adjustable

Ø Able to control 2 fans at the same time

Ø Remote temperature and humidity sensor with 5mtr of cable

boy not sure on that one.I know I need to get a fan controller.That 6 inchs pulls so much air it about has the paint coming off the walls.Need ta slow it down some,lol.

Thanks stumps.I was wondering if anyone was still hanging around this thread.Hows yours doing??
Hope Doc's move went ok and look forward to his return.I never did find that " al b fucts" cloning thread. So had to get with Db and follow his method.So far so good. I took a couple more clones this morning off my big w/c due to the f/l's are going fast.Found another male yesterday of the f/l's so now down to 2.All my w/c's turned out to be female and all but 1 c/c are females too.
We're going 12/12 this coming monday but might have ta flip sooner with the way there growing.So far a little over a inch per day since I put them in that foxfarm soil.They REALLY like that shit thats for sure.Got new pics of yer babys? would like to see how much bigger they are compared to mine.Think I'm a week or two behind ya.

If you was to pick a strain to grow in a stadium grow with very good light intensity which would it be, and why?

When growing and stadium grow which technique is better, going for huge colas or spacing the pots out abit more and going for bushy plants.

I just sent my plants into flowering a week ago and so far they are looking pretty damn good.

Some of the plants have the tips of the leafs curling down though... Do you know why this might be?

I was thinking it might be overwatering, but I thought I would check to be sure. Right now I have the system set to flood four times during the 12 hours the light is on (it's a ebb & grow system) and will trying scaling it back to 3 starting tomorrow.

:leaf:

Got any pics nacho? I been wondering about my leafs also.Dont think its a problem but thy seem to almost flip over at times.Just the big fan leafs and only a couple turn or flip for a minute or so.Just kind of wierd I thought.I turn the plants prolly 3 times a day but noticed the leafs sometimes flip when I'm in the room for a spell.Must be shy or sump thin.They always go back to normal and the plants look healthy so whats up with that.There not turnin to the light cuz the plant and most leafs will be pointing at the light and then a couple big leafs will be flipped away from the light if that makes cents at all.

Looking nice.I just flipped the girls to 12/12 yesterday.I was wanting to wait untill this monday but they're growing to fast and will end up fighting them later.They went from 7 inches to 18 in 10 days.Once they got there roots into that ocean forest all hell broke loose.I took a few clones and they seem to be doing fine too,so guess its off to the races :weed::weed:.

Anyone know about supercropping or lst? I read up on it in the faq section but not sure if its to late to tie some over.I've got 2 w/c's that are about 5 inches taller then the rest of the pack so was wondering if I should tie the tops over some to get the lower branchs to catch up with the rest or is it to late?I did prune some small lower branches off this mornin and tuck some of the bigger fan leafs under some new branch to get them more light.My 600 is about 10 inches off the tops now and may have ta raise it soon.Cooltube is doing its duty being it aint burnt the crap out of the tops yet being so close.Light seems to be reaching the lower branches pretty well.Only the 2 plants will make me lift the light so that why I'm thinking about supercropping the 2.Being I went 12/12 not sure if its to late.

Think I might tie over the 2 plants in question.They out grew the light today so we'll bend them over a little in the morn when the lights come on.Side shoots are really taking off and i've been tucking the larger fan leafs below them to get them in the light better.I want to keep the tube as close as I can without burnin them and so far there at 8 inches.I can still keep me hand on top of the girls without it getting hot and temp prob is reading about 80 at plant tops today.Cooltube is workin like a charm :clap::clap::clap:.I can keep me hand on the glass on the bottom of the light without haveing to move it so wonder if the plants can grow up into it like a clf without burnin.We'll soon see,hehe

Hey all,

Anyone know what ppms I should be hitting for my next feeding?My next feeding is blooming nutes,tiger bloom,big bloom and open sesame but not sure if I should do this feeding at full strenght or just bump the ppms up 200 more.Last feeding of grow big was at 870ppms.I'm thinking I should feed at close to 1100ppms on this next feed.Any thoughts on this??

Ok I went by the foxfarm chart and that put my ppms at 970.I figured that was ok since I been at 870 last 2 feeding so fed the bloom room with bloom nutes.
I tried me hand at lst on a couple plants and that seems to worked rather well.Lots of tops instead of just one.Heres a couple pics of the girls and my " lst'in".



This is a pic of the family 5 days after going 12/12.



Much better than before doc helped me fix them.



Thanks doc.made one hell of a diffrents putting them in ocean forest and without yer help they prolly be done.

Thanks 40055.Looks like that new room will work out fine.I had to chop 4 of the plants down this week.3 hermis and 1 male.I'm now down to 3 in bloom and no balls on them yet,just buds starting and hairs everywhere.
I changed strains to white widows and have a few clones almost ready to hit the bloom room.All female clones so no more sexing and wasteing time.
I did keep 2 c/c clones off the 1 female in the bloom room.That plant is growing into a monster.Looks like it will be one massive cola.


She is now covered in bud sites and hairs.I'll post more pics when she fills in.Hope the clones grow the same way.If they do I may keep this strain.
