Damn...yea that would be nice...is there a link or a site to study up on that ....I'm all about trying things...I just don't have all the cool tools and grow equipment....yet...workin on it...hell I'm hoping to get decent bud wit the 4200k bulbs I got...trying to find the 2100/2200 ones but no luck yet

you can still do it for relatively cheap my dad flowers under t5 bulbs as well and he gets a nice scrog poppin too.....the buds don't get as big or dense but its actually still really efficient.....you can make a scrog for a few bucks with pvc and some string line.....google is your best friend youtubes nice too;) just google the bulbs you want i promise youll find em somewhere on the internet

hello, can anybody out there tell me whats nukes to feed my autogrow. she's been in flower now for 10-12 days. Its just one plant. she is in a 3-4 gallan pot.
 
#47
There's a lot of different answers you gonna get on that...I use dyna gro grow/bloom....their pretty easy line to use...I'm sure I need more for mine but I'm trying to see what I can get on a simple grow...there's good growers on here that will help and the search bar does a lot on here

mr. skunk, question for ya, I let the plant dry out then I gave her a gallon of reverse osmosis pH good, she had water come out the bottom of the potter and filled up. Then about an 1hr. later she drank that. I'm I giving her enough water?
 
#51
Well I let my soil dry pretty good...almost to the point of drooping...they are in 5gal pots and I give em 2 gals of water/nutes...they seems to like that...and it last 3 days or so ...u wanna get at least 20% runoff after watering....u really don't want em to sit in water u will get root rot...I water mine and let em drain a lil bit then I sit em on a tray in the grow room over a lil catch tray to let em drain completely

Sounds good, thanks for the advice. One thing that I noticed that over a couple of hrs. the leaves were coming up again. I watered it today so I'll wait 3 days and water her again.

Looks nice...I use the pot weight method...I lift the pot and when it feels light I water it...some plants need water every 2 days...some 3-4...just depends
 
#56
I keep em on a tray off the floor to help airflow to the bottom of the pots...the roots seem to like it

Mr. Skunk, I thank you very much for your time. You have been very helpful. This is only the second one that I tried. Your plants look great.

IF YOU DON'T MIND ME ASKING WHAT LIGHTS ARE YOU USING?
 
#59
I'm no professional ...I'm doing it easy...lights water and simple nutes...I have a hydrofarm 8 bulb t5 set up...I can run only 4 lights at a time if I want... I got the wrong bulbs for flower right now...I'm running 4200k bulbs...u need like 2100/2200k for flower...they like the red spectrum for flower I just gonna see what happens this round
 
#60
Yea, the ones I use for flower are 2700k I have 4) 200 watt that put out 55 watts each and they are 2700k each with about 16,000 lumens. The 6) smaller one are 100 watt each but use only 23 watts each and they are about 9960 total lumens. These are cfl's.
