just a couple suggestions, i would get 2 of those boxes to make a taller grow space (585mm=23") and dont cut the flaps off and tape them together, just a thought. the other thing is i would use both fans for exhaust mounted up high with a passive intake down low on the other side. i did it this way with my veg box and it has real good flow. in my big box, i only use an 90mm fan and a big hole for intake and have 4 fans for exhaust, again, just my thoughts, LoL.

Okay this is frustrating.. I had this same problem with my last plant and couldn't figure out what the cause of it was. I'm getting tiny brown spots along the veins in the leaves and yellow/brown blotches on the leaves making them crispy in spots. I'm not using any nutes and just like that last time it starts at the top of the plant and works it's way down. And i've already checked for spider mites..

PLEASE HELP!! I don't want to ruin this plant too!10-02-10_1152.jpg10-02-10_1149.jpg10-02-10_1151.jpg10-02-10_1150.jpg

why arent you feeding that female? i would imagine she is hungry. it wouldn't take long to eat up the nutrients in a party cup. Check out SICC's party cup grow, hes the master of those cups.

Well, if it was truly MY plant i would be giving it nutes. Hell i have nutes to give it, but my brother(owner of the plant) is paranoid and thinks that by using nutes it will ruin the potency and flavor. I've tried to explain to him that all it's going to do is help the plant, but he is extremely stubborn and bull headed.

Well thats probably the problem, see outside you can plant with no nutrients because there is enough dirt to supply those nutrients. When you use such a small container, your fighting root binding and quick leeching of nutrients from the soil. I would say you have a great plant considering you havent ever fed it. Know this, it will starve to death if not fed. that's why we flush a plant, to remove the nutrient taste from the buds before we harvest it.

If you want to save that plant, tell him to start reading and learn at least the basics. water, food, light

You might be able to grow seedlings with those but get you some 6500k bulbs, don't forget to get flowering bulbs also if using bagseed. Go with a named auto and you only need one type of bulbs. Hit walmart, get a pack of 23 watt bulbs if you can find them. The more the better. You want alot of 6500k light for seedlings to start to veg.

If you buy femmed auto seeds, you will most likely get a female, im three for three! Ive had good luck so far. i hope you do too.

Yeah, i tried.. Guess i can't really force him. I hate to say this but i almost hope that it pops out a couple seeds in there. I'd like to have a go at it.
